League Of Legends: The 15 Most Banned Champions Ever (According To OP.gg)

Week 3 was a wild ride for fans and players of the League of Legends European Championship. Mad Lions and Rouge sit atop the standings, while Fnatic hovers below the playoff threshold in seventh place with a 3-4 rec

Perhaps the most realistic interpretation of the top lane goes to this comic by The moba game updates Room. The artist does spectacular work showcasing the hecticness of the other lanes as they engage in the fantastical battles of the trailers, putting players in dire situations to dig themselves out

Garen's first active ability, Decisive Strike, give Garen a short boost in movement speed and physical damage when targeting an enemy with the ability. When Decisive Strike is cast, Garen is freed from all slows afflicting him and his next basic attack will silence the target for 1.5 seconds. When this ability is performed correctly, Garen will do a small jump up in the air and do a slam attack on the opponent being targeted. This ability is great for dealing quick damage to an enemy in a lane or securing a minion or canon last hit. It can also be used on towers to deal extra physical dam

He has cemented his place in the metagame as a more menacing Garen with similar damage output but with some explosive attacks and a little more crowd control in the form of a frightening pull. Laning against Darius is scary, and if there’s anyone to ban out of fear, he’s certainly a rational cho

Getting banned between 15% and 28% of the time, Leona certainly stands out from the previous two by being all about the stuns. She might not be able to kill champions herself, but with an explosive stunning ultimate with a long-range, she can be a menace in team fig

While she can be somewhat of a niche pick due to her lack of damage, it’s undoubtedly a type of power that’s welcome in a lot of games. If you think you’ll struggle against constant interruptions, it’s probably best to just keep her out of your opponents’ pi

While slowing down releases of new champions, League of Legends has spent a ton of time reworking older characters to fit into the game better. Classic characters like Fiddlesticks and Volibear have had huge recent overhauls on their attacks and animations, and while they might play better now, it can be jarring for returning play

Since Pokémon Unite won’t contain as much in the way of custom movesets as a typical Pokémon team, having this sort of consistent way to customize stats and give additional abilities adds tons of depth to each character. Trees can’t be too large or daunting for new players, but this feature offers far more tools to play w

At the start of the match, purchase a Doran's Shield and healing potion along with a ward for the lane. For your early game items, purchase a Phage, Kindlegem, and Boots of Speed of course. These early game items will allow you to kill more minions and harass the enemy more frequently because of the movement speed buffs and cooldown reducti

In the same matchup against Rouge, Mad Lions purposely let through Varus, who has essentially been a global perma-ban in League of Legends as of late. Mad Lions then immediately locked in Senna and Wukong as their bot lane. They smashed the Varus-led Rouge, with Matyáš "Carrzy" Orság going 2/1/7 on Senna and Norman "Kaiser" Kaiser going 3/0/6 on Wuk

Shen is directly mentioned in this meme due to his ultimate, which lets him teleport to foes across the map at an unusual speed. Top laners in general will still be frequent users of Teleport, a Summoner Spell that allows them to do the same thing. Often, this can be done to return to the lane quickly, as it’s a long walk for many slow champi

Furthermore, champions will automatically get gold by being near minion or monster kills. Finally, getting 4 kills without dying grants the ON FIRE! buff which gives increased attack speed, AD, AP, CDR, and resource regeneration but slightly increases damage taken while reducing shielding and healing. If someone gets ON FIRE!, the match will surely end soon unless they are stop

As a result, players have found an endless set of ways to fail this particular lane regularly, and a peaceful Top Laner can often be a regular source of stress for the rest of your team. These problems have existed since the beginning of League of Legends , and there have been countless memes made about all of the troubles this role still faces to this

Adding to the problem of more aggressive top lane champions, the decision on what aggressive item is best is becoming less and less of a question. This meme proves just how powerful some weapons are regardless of the user, as the Blade of the Ruined King can be weirdly effective for nearly any aggressive physical champ

That might mean that, if players can get proficient enough with them, they may be able to carry themselves out of bronze like Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez did during quarantine in 2020. Keep up with new ban trends across all of the LoL serv
