Best URF champs[IMHO]:

Soraka is really neat in URF. I remember I tanked about ~10 Nid-javs in a 1v1 in my first URF game. I was stacking MR and had a spirit visage and had a 4 second heal. Poor Nidalee couldn't even scratch me. I eventually killed her by spamming starcall while she speared at me to no effect.

Galio would probably work really well, since most champions that work super well with URF are AP. Plus he benefits a lot from 80% CDR. Haven't tried him[Don't own him], but he sounds OP in theory.

Lulu in URF is god-like. Huge shield, incredibly low-cooldown E's and Q's and an ult thats always up so you can't die. Her only disadvantage, is that you feel guilty afterwards for ruining 5 other peoples games.

Urgot is decently fun in that mode. Permanant self-shield, half-second CD Qs are really good. QQQQQQQQ and then you have slain an enemy. Unless they're Lulu or Fizz. In which case you're screwed.

Sona isn't that much fun, but she's really overpowered. It honestly feels like your entire kit is completely useless in anything other then laning phase[For URF games that still have that]. Healing 90 health each second with your W is nice to counter Nid-javs, but is pretty pathetic in teamfights.

Fizz is absurd in URF. I once saw a Fizz trollpole all the way from their spawn pool back to ours being chased by the whole enemy team without taking any damage. And they had Lux, The Almighty Donger and Nidalee. It was more like a bullet hell then a MOBA, but he just E'd through all of it without a care in the world.

Bullet hell AoS sounds like it would be a thing of splendor and awe, if taking a minor miracle to actually get functioning decently.

You're also forgetting Ez, the ultimate spammy bastard. Ult every ten or so seconds, free flash every second, Q on a .2 second CD if it hits and the W on about two or so seconds. Incredibly crazy and nearly impossible to catch.

No possible way to achieve the first by using the second... None at all.

Also, the only person that can reliably catch Ez is Riven, with her infinite dashes of infinite dashing and constant shields and constant stuns and yeah.

Fuck Riven.

Akali. I love seeing things like Ez get picked when I play her because you can just jump them from the fog and delete them before they respond. Ez in particular isn't good at escaping from her, because you can pretty much match an ult to every one of his Es and he has nothing to lock you up.

The thing about Ez, Donger, Brand, Nidalee etc. is that they're one-sided upgrades. They get absurd spam, but anyone who can catch them will slaughter them. That's why I loved Hecarim so much, you can literally just run up on people while facerolling and they can't do anything about it, nothing except maybe a Lulu or a Nidalee can outrun you, and then only if they see you coming.

Also, Nasus makes for a viable tank. I'm averaging 500-600 Q stacks in 20-30 minute games, and the only thing that has given me any trouble was a Yi, because you can't Q what you can't hit.

Yyyyeah, Nasus tends to get absurdly snowbally.

It's kind of not fun playing against him, when a stray Q touches you, you implode and he gets fully healed. :/

I played nothing but Evelynn lastnight, and dominated two different Ezreals and Akalis.

Hextech + Rylais + Boots of Swiftness + constant W mashing + a flash for almost every encounter = catch anybody.  It helps that you don't have to actually catch up to melee range.  Just have to stay close enough to tear them apart with your obnoxious Q spam (3/second).  I went 30-something/3 one game in less than 20 minutes.

The only person I found I couldn't catch or escape was Fizz.  He was infuriating to play against.  Never targetable and more mobility than anybody.

I probably said it before, but it's worth repeating. I had the misfortune of playing against someone who had good Fizz mechanics, and he 1v5ed our entire team without taking damage.

On an unrelated note, I'm laughing so hard because of something I decided to try: running DFG on Nidalee and playing primarily in catform instead of just chucking spears. DFG + W + E literally deletes squishies in less than a second. xD

Just experienced and reported this bug: in the ban selection process, some champs are greyed out for seemingly no reason, preventing bans. This however has no effect on either team being able to pick them, except for you if you own the champion.

Seems to just be for this patch, and I've only seen it in URF, but I've only played in URF so I don't know if other modes are affected.

I swear, EVERY SINGLE GODDAM PROMO MATCH -_-

It doesn't matter if I'm on a 4 win win streak before I enter series, I always manage to meet at least 3 of the worst players ever (say, a Warwick that ganked a total of 0 times in 30 minutes and ended up 0/1/3, quoth him "you need to cs more to gain elo" <as gold 5 to silver 1>), and lose every single match. The problem is that my MMR keeps rising and I'm now playing vs a mix of Gold 5 to 3. It's just going to get harder to win 3 in a row because theoretically the matchmaking system pits me for a 50% win rate.

well if your MMR is rising then the games you win will get you more points when you win compared to when you lose so statistically you should improve as odds are that the enemy will have the horrible team-mate(s) just as often as you do.

Does always end up being stuff like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UXRpB03azw

Late reply is late, but it was the ones that were removed most recently, like Hecarim, Skarner, Kayle, Soraka and I forget who else.
They just were not removed properly in the client at that time was all.
