    A suggestion of a spinoff: Why everyone SHOULD play (CHAMPION). Explaining why some underrated champions deserve a chance to be on a pick pool.
    Edit: changed the naming after a suggestion on responses, thanks!

      I think he does explain a portion of that with his Why Noone Plays. In certain videos like the one for Taliyah, he specifies all the strong aspects of her throughout the video, which I can validate because I main her. But I think some things can still be said about certain characters...

      @Keshuel Here's the thing: If you play Viego and completely master every single champion's kit, then you can effectively play at 500% efficiency, utilizing every single champions kit to the absolute fullest. Playing Viego and you possess an Azir? Why, the Viego who mastered Azir just got a pentakill! While the one who didn't is simply spamming R and only getting a double kill.

    hes fine how he is, as you said veigo can be 1/9 and still dangerous but if hes in the situation it normally means his team is in similar so he cannot her his resets on his r and passive. veigo's ult is a single target execute (yes i know is still dmges and throws away other champs but it will only execute on) and even if you instantly get the soul for the reset you have to wait at least 2.5 seconds until you can use it again which one on those you cannot move in. veigo is fucked without his ult aswell so you have to wait for it to be up or a enemy low enough to be able to one shot and get a reset. also as much as he can take more fed champs souls he also can take weaker sould which get him killed.

All he has to do is do enough damage with an ally or two to get one reset and the fight is pretty much over.

    Possession is much a better revive.

    I actually think Viego is a farely balanced champion. He balances the game, where, if you play an op champion, he can turn that against you. And he also has disadvantages, like you said, he is terrible at defense. Playing with Viego is a lot of fun, but playing against him isnt that bad either. You can outplay him if you engage first.

      so i'd say maybe DO NOT use conqueror(idk why everyone uses... it is a truly dog shit rune, IF you can get 6 autos in you get, at lvl 18, 54 AD and heal for 9% of dmg... average game youll heal for MAYBE 1k TOPS), go lethal tempo imo(insane lvl 1 with lethal+q), maybe try(not trolling actually try it) shieldbow+botrk+bloodthirster then whatever else you want, can literally solo baron with just those 3 items for example but the lethal and all the life steal(grabbing spirit visage makes it RIDICULOUS with the self healing) then maybe steraks+ DD or something, honestly seems significantly better than the most common build on U.GG

    I don’t agree that junglers have the worst game knowledge. I believe it’s the other way around. Playing a laning role only makes you focus on farming and lane management, whereas junglers have to know when to take objectives effectively, and on top of that know where to go and when. It definitely requires a lot of knowledge of how the game works to manage all this seamlessly. And I’m even saying this as a top laner , who is least appreciative of their junglers 😅

    They should make Viego deal the killing blow in order for him to get the soul and all the 200 years bs that comes from it. It's not an incredibly difficult task given his ult is an execution. Giving him free heals and untargetability just for the lulz is bonkers. That way players would actually have to think and save their ults instead of diving head first waiting for their teammates to finish the job. If they want to close the gap with ult, then it's gonna be a little harder to deal the killing blow because someone on your team might accidentally kill the enemy. It feels more interactive that way imo. Right now it's a total mess.

    Viego is the exact opossite of Yi (for example). Yi has Q and W to get him self a kill first so he can reset after and it all over. Kata is the same her base kit is really good for killing people. Viego is different. He has low mobility compaired to champs like him and has no means other than his R to dodge CC. His only CC is really slow to cast and predictable.
    Viego's whole idea is he need one enemy to die in order to take over. If he gets focused down (somethis far easyer to do than focusing down a Yi or Kata that can become untargetable or blink all over) he then becomes very simple to counter

    @shacolin6546 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think his concept is better than the execution. The ability to transform into other champions is cool but giving him untargetability in-between transformation is very obnoxious to deal with in teamfights.
    What I would have done instead is to give him a channel, but not the untargetability. That way chances are he isn't getting a reset in a teamfight. What he gets in return is keeping his possession for much longer.
    Say you gank top to kill a Camille, then use Camille's kit to gank mid right after. Maybe you kill the enemy Rek'sai (yeah, killing Rek'sai early game is unlikely at best, but its just an example) and then pulls a gank or two with Rek'sai's kit. That way he feels more like an actual jungler that focus on playmaking and less like a "ungabunga me reset me pentakill" 200 years bs.
