First thing you should do is pick 1-2 roles you like to fill and then just pick up champs that fit into that.

Do you want to focus on AD carrying, playing AP, or jungling, etc. Pick up champs that fit into that. If you want to have a handful of champs for each role for trading or just in case, I say pick up another jungler that isn't Shaco, since he's less sustainable and simple and has issues contributing in teamfights.

For example. I like to primarily Bruiser top or jungle, so I try to pick champs that fit those roles (though I also occasionally try to pick up non-bruiser tops just in case).

Hm. I like carrying my team thus I like:

- Jungling. Only have Amumu.
- Solo mid: Orianna, Annie, Heimer
- Solo top: Akali, GP

If you like carrying I would recommend:

WW,GP (since you already have him or have you just used him when he was free?) or Nocturne for Jungle, Lee Sin is great too and WW,GP and Lee Sin also work for solo tops.

I'm not sure about your Vayne solo mid comment, current meta both Ashe and Vayne go bot with support. But Yeah Vayne/Caitlyn would both be solid picks for Mid/Bot AD ranged carries.

As for AP carries, a lot of them are pretty fun to use right now, Brand, Kennen, and Anivia are the ones I currently like the most.

 

[PhantomX]

I don't think Vayne would work so well mid b/c they tend to have heavy burst casters there, but she could work in top lane against non-gap closing melee bruisers since she has the knockback.

 

[Coney]

Vayne 'cuz I want an Ashe replacement and she's a solo-mid carry.

not in today's metagame, most mids will eat you alive

Heimer because he's ****ing fun and pushes turrets like a boss.

fun but you might feel like a hindrance to your team later

Or Shaco because he seems to be a great counterjungler and the only jungler I have at the moment is Amumu.

experiment with other junglers first until you get their different patterns

and yeah vayne @ top is fine, i did garen against her before and holy **** was that infuriating

 

[Omni]

WW doesn't appeal to me that much. Nocturne seems like a good compliment with Amumu maybe? Plus a fed Nocturne is friggin' scary as ****.

fun but you might feel like a hindrance to your team later

Really? I've found that Heimer late game is redonkulous. Especially when it comes to like taking baron, dragon, pushing mid. Rockets do really good damage and Grenade is great for long range poking @ towers and stunning divers. But then again, the other team is prolly doin' somethin wrong.

Hrm.

So it comes down to either:

- Buy Heimer or
- Save for Nocturne

 

[Gifts]

tbh save for Noct if you like jungling.

Buy someone else if you don't, just don't waist your IP on heimer.

 

[NJzFinest]

If you need a jungle, get Free Win.... er, I mean Lee Sin

 

[Zolga Owns]

my elo is low cause i suck :D

This^^^^^^^^^

 

[_Dice]

third ranked in a row that i've been on blue and my team has been 100-150 ELO below my opponents. T_T

 

[MacD]

my god, my duo queue partner DC'd or something at like 20 min, but we somehow are still able to keep up

get all their nexus turrets down, last fight we lost somehow, and 2 were up and rushed our base and won

closest 4v5 i've ever had, so sad since we were so close to winning

 

[Hylian]

I just won a 4v5 in ranked yesterday actually lol. Other team was so bad :/.

another mage :D

 

[Turazrok]

hawt .

 

[BSL]

I'll buy her when they come out with a Ninetales skin.

 

[Espy Rose]

Now that you said it, it'll never happen.

 

[BSL]

Well then... looks like Riot won't be getting my money for her.

Spoiler

I guess I'll just buy some other champ

 

[Tom]

there was a picture of her fox form on reddit last night

 

[Zolga Owns]

That ninetales. <333333

 

[Turazrok]

Linkit bro

 

[BSL]

 

[Plum]

And instead of a Ninetales skin they release a Naruto skin.
:3

 

[BSL]

only if they release a Goku skin for Wukong first.

 

[jiovanni007]

Played a ranked, finished 7/4 as Caitlyn (yes my Cait is trash). My other four teammates had 55 deaths.

55 Deaths!!!

I couldn't carry though because I'm so trash

edit: And **** scumbag Dominion players. First ban Evelyn, FIRST PICK TWITCH!!!

 

[BSL]

Get better, scrub.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

It is decided. I will go download this game tomorrow since my brain is currently fried after a stem cell bio + signal transduction exam.

 

[UTDZac]

Streaming some duo ranked with damiens.

[Scamp]

Played a Dominion game against a team that picked both Evelynn and Twitch.

Crushed them pretty hard.

 

[Wobbles]

My ranked winstreak is currently powerful enough to withstand AD Janna screaming "I go mid or feed" in champ select. From <1400 to 1626 without a loss.

 

[BSL]

amazing. i want to be that Janna.

 

[Wobbles]

She actually did pretty good. Was a huge tool though, any mistake on anyone's part and she flamed them relentlessly. Oh well.

edit:

ALSO, this means I'm temporarily in the top ONE THOUSAND of solo Q for NA. COME AT ME, ELO RESET.

i think Zac was in the top 100 for a bit, so....

 

[BSL]

nice avatar, tom. that skin art is so cool.

 

[Mogwai]

i think Zac was in the top 100 for a bit, so....

I was top 100 10 months into season 1

 

[BSL]

ooooooh, i bet you think youre so cool, Mr. Top 100.

well news flash... YOURE NOT!

 

[Mogwai]

no I don't actually, I just think I'm pretty good. I'm actually pretty universally hated by LoL players.

 

[BSL]

ive noticed... hahaha

 

[PhantomX]

What did you do, is the question?

 

[DanGR]

So uh. I'm averaging 15 kills in ranked soloqueue atm with Akali.


For all you guys complaining about random scrubs in your games, get decent with her and it's super easy. You CAN carry 4 idiots that all go negative by like 7 deaths.


Btw, she beats Singed.

 

[PhantomX]

I think Talon would be better tbh, b/c he wrecks turrets harder and faster than her.
