How is Kindred vs Yasuo? xD

I'm with Magos on this one. Heavily Kindred.

[Passion 3,484]

If someone asked me, I'd respond that hardest roles to play in my eyes go:

 

Jungle>Mid>Support>Top>ADC

 

 

Jungle: You need to be on point with everything. You need to consider what kind of matchup every lane has to evaluate realistic ganking potential and tactics, when to leave the jungle, when and how to counterjungle, can you duel other jungler, where is the other jungler for counterganking, enemy wards, your wards... Tons of tiny things.

 

Mid: requires high levels of map awareness and personal skill. A responsible position since it's mainly you who's responsible for failing the lane if you do. But the pressure of ganking lanes and assisting jungler falls on mid player. It's the heavy 1v1 situation that earns the 2nd place here: either you're better than them and win (even matchups) or don't feed while ganking (unfavorable matchups), either you lose. Can't throw out jungle influnce tho.

 

Support: You must observe 9 players. At all times. 'Tis enough said for me. I honestly believe that support is a position that requires greatest level of map awareness. Warding mid-late game is a true test of your awareness of the team refuses to cover you for that. Add to this having to babysit another player so he can farm easily while at once trying to distrupt the enemy carry from farming and you have a position that balances the thin red line between life and death.

 

Top: the only reason i put top so low is because of generally tanky matchups and the farmfest game going there. I doubt top has too many responsibilities in game. Observe the obj for TP, jungler's presence and focus on farming and dueling the opponent. 'Course, the most prone for tower dives early-mid, that's the drawback I guess.

 

ADC: Right click for the win. Positioning is one thing, but where any other classes are forced to use their skills strategically to achieve anything, adc are the only ones to use their qwer for aid, as their kill potential comes from autoattacks. The fact that they're on lane with support who's responsible for vision control, harassing, calls (it's usually the support that has the cc required for kill lockdown) and map awareness makes them focus mainly on CSing and slipping in some poke/trades with the enemy.

Kiting isn't really as demanding as some think as EVERY class does it. Consider this just another form of dodging damage in form of skillshots, but AoE of this skillshot is kited champ's range potential. And you rely on others peeling for you half of the time (depends on team comp), what only adds to others' work. Even positioning is a team effort ._.

Finally, someone who agrees.. ^~^

ADC by no means is a difficult role. All you need to succeed as an ADC is good CS, good positioning, and a good support. Kiting isn't much more than a convenient skill to have for when you fuck up your positioning.

 

That's because those are all champs that are inherently difficult or otherwise impossible to kite, due to gap closers and CC resistance. Ashe has some of the strongest kite, especially after her rework.

1. ADC is just as difficult as all other roles. ADC requires you to farm a carry while sharing the experience from laning. It actually is difficult. Plus, all roles have counterparts they have to deal with. Some are more difficult for them than others, depending on the champions. As Dark Rider said, ADC also requires positioning skills, and the ability to maximize your carry as much as possible.

 

2. Ashe has the easiest time kiting in the whole game, because of her passive and Q passive/active combination. That same combo also makes it so that she has practically infinite chase power without even having to expend mana. She is the strongest ADC in the early game and period at the moment in my opinion. Before she got ridiculously buffed, she was pretty weak, in Kalista's position. A carry before the late game that lasts an extremely short time, and otherwise ends up a weak champion, also with an absurdly weak and completely lame ultimate (Ashe still has a pathetic ultimate in my opinion).

I sometimes think Ashe isn't a starter champion.. is it? ;~;

I can't play Zed myself. He actually is really difficult to pull off. I went 7/9/2 last time, which isn't awful I guess... But I only had a farm rate of 2.7 CS/min...

 

And Twitch... He just needs a better kit.

You just need to aim with shadows with your q, that's it, The End, Ez gg xD

Apparently that's too difficult.

 

I'm sticking with my better picks (like my new Kha mid... It's too OP).

Yasuo flat out sucks for me as a matchup. With the fact that my two mains in mid are Talon and Jayce.

I know lots and lots of people that call Yasuo a champion for bronzies. He is a good bit overpowered. Jayce at least is fairly counterable.

Yes but.. Yasuo is too hard to master for bronze xD Or maybe silver.. : ? Some people don't know exactly how to play to him xD

Yasuo:

 

1. Qx2 onto minions and/or champion.

2. E EVERYTHING.

3. Land the 3rd Q or the E>Q combo.

4. Ult

5. Q>AA>Q>AA

6. E to catch up.

7. ???

8. Profit!

 

Not the easiest, for sure, but definitely learn-able.

You just described every champion on the game.

There are some hard to learn hard to master champs though xD

Longest match ever. I even hate playing as Twisted Fate. So I went full attack speed for funzies.

Lots of sneak attacks. His ult came pretty hand. But the bombs... It was like a real war zone. You see those big bombs go over your head your butt clinches a little. 

 

I also hade a 5v5 jinx match. Mid lane was like no mans land and our base was a trench. We lost.
