I'm sure the opinion of every champ varies, but I'll give you mine.. I see no reason anyone should play miss fortune.. In a competitive setting at least.. I mean, if you find her fun, then go for it.. There's alot of champs that I like to play that I wouldn't think about touching in ranked (hi veigar).. But as a ranged AD, she's pretty low on the totem pole..

I like MF actually. With the right team setup she can be more devastating than Tristana.

The champion's bundle is the better bang for the buck. It gives you 41,400IP or 14,300RP worth of champs. Collector's only does 25,200IP or 10,790RP.

Lets champs that I feel are worth it in the log run though.

[alexisamonster]

anivia is considered one of the best ap mages out there
blitz is a pretty good support for catching people out of position
a really farmed jax can pretty much 1v5 a team
shaco is one of the best jungler's out there and has more control over early/mid game than anyone else
sion shits on a lot of ap mid mages
and twitch is just fun if your not playing ranked

It takes a really good player to make aniva useful. The thing with her is that CC's cancel her channel, which they don't for other champs which makes no fucking sense.
Blitz is awesome when played right but extremely tough to play good.
Jax isn't worth learning until we find out what they're doing with dodge.
Shaco is really good but if you get a slow start with him you're screwed.
Against sion you have to not be afraid to get him before he gets you.
Twitch can be extremely devastating.

I don't think you should discourage someone from champs that can be good if played well just because they are difficult..

[Dantrag]

I don't think you should discourage someone from champs that can be good if played well just because they are difficult..

I'm trying to do so while they are still learning the mechanics of the game. This is much harder than learning champs.

[Tyrath]

Yeah but I think a pack that gives some easy to learn champions and a some harder to learn champions is better in the long run than a pack that is front loaded with easier ones. That is why I'm still sticking to the champ's bundle.

[Dantrag]

I did highlight some not so easy champs too. Karthus and Kassadin are a not the easiest champs to do well with. I think Nasus might be one of the best to learn with because you HAVE to last hit with his Q to become wtfjusttook1/2theircarrieshpwithoneqNasus.

[Tyrath]

I know, I was referring to your "Less champs worth it in the long run" comment.

[Dantrag]

We all know in reality EVERY champ can do well. I mean fuck, I actually got beat by Soraka AP mid as Brand... was fkn silly.

Soraka mid is legit and counters a lot of characters.

Last night, had a Sona demand mid, made our Fizz go bot as support to my Vayne.. LeBlanc was against her mid.. Sona proceeded to get first blood, and then 3 more kills in lane against LeBlanc.. We went from full rage to quiet fairly quickly.. Granted, its free leblan week, but it goes towards your statement.. Sometimes, it doesn't matter..

Hell, I had a match a couple weeks ago with a Karma that was solo top against a Singed and Jax and owned them BOTH on multiple occasions without a gank.. By late game, she was so tanky it was crazy to watch.. Granted it was a premade normal and the other team probably sucked, but again, not the point..

[Dantrag]

Aggressive and good Sona's piss me off as much as good and aggressive Alistars. Got shut down at bot the other against Alistar and Vayne. I knew once I saw that combo I was screwed. I got shut down out of farm and everything. But then again, our jungler sucked lol. One ranked game I went 8-0-5 with Taric. Built AP and fked everyone up. Close range E was doing so much damage.

Got a bunch of RP for my birthday and picked up Kog'Maw and his legendary skin. I'm really, really liking him. I've been having some decent games with him but as far as builds go, I'm not 100% sure. Chaox guide suggests a Manamune rush which I questioned at first but I can see it's value considering the Ult spamming potential. Anyway, what are your opinions?

Manamune: yes/no?
Infinity Edge + Phantom Dancer + Last Whisper: yes/no?
Madred's Bloodrazor + Trinity Force: yes/no?

As far as tanky gear, either Frozen Mallet or Warmogs + Atma's for AD heavy and Wit's End + Banshee's for AP heavy. Opinions there would be great too.

Thanks!

Take it you are only playing SR. You have to base how you are going to build Kog around the people who are on your team.

Don't trust them that much and want to play it safe? Go Manamune so you can safely harass from far away and not have to worry about mana.

IE + PD + LW is for people more comfortable with Kog Maw seeing how he has no escapes but can trust their team to protect him so he can lay out max damage.

Madred's + TF adds a little bit more survability from the IE + PD but it is all depending on Baron/Dragon control and if the enemies are champs whose damage is based off of HP.

On Dominion, I almost always build Kog Maw with Kitae's into a Zeal then defensive item into PD/Vamp Scepter into Stark's or Atmas.

[Qeomash]

I've noticed with Zilean, that he makes a good team great, but isn't as helpful to a bad team.. I love playing as him, because his ult makes team fights 5v6 basically.. But I play him as support, so I can focus on poking/harrassing and making sure I ult my carry at the right time..

Zilean is fun to play alongside. Game I played last night with a friend who just picked him up, we both carried with identical scores of 13/3/17. Hilarious to see Zilean at low health put a bomb on an enemy and slow them, walk a bit away and repeat the process if they kept chasing him.
