While champions may fluctuate in strength over time, there is always a “cancerous champion” in every season. Currently, Urgot is dubbed the most “cancerous” champion, a 3-star annihilation machine that dominates regardless of star level and items in TFT Season 3. As long as Urgot has a good initial positioning, taking down several fully equipped enemies is as easy as pie.
Many gamers believe that while Urgot outperforms Miss Fortune in terms of enemy kill potential, it doesn’t evoke the same keyboard-smashing frustration. Whereas Miss Fortune can deal massive area damage to the entire enemy team without needing a specific team composition, Urgot is more “humble” and requires sufficient survival time and appropriate items to unleash his devastating attacks. Overall, this mid-season 3 version of TFT truly offers a lot of enjoyment for players.
If Urgot is the most “cancerous” champion of season 3, what names from the first two seasons could possibly match that?
Aurelion Sol – (Dragon – Mage)
When it comes to the definition of “annihilating” an entire team relying solely on their Traits/Classes, no name can rival the Celestial Dragon. Already extremely powerful with the Dragon trait’s magic damage immunity, Aurelion Sol becomes a terrifying presence among all seven other players on the board after receiving a buff from the 6 Mages.
Fast, decisive, and clean, leaving no trace behind, this is the Light Wave of the Celestial Dragon. Even now, as he has transitioned to the Rebel – Battleship composition in a new role, the League of Legends community still reminisces about those instant annihilations from back in the day.
Zed (Lightning – Assassin – Summoner)
Since this ranking is for “cancerous” champions, other champions that deal straightforward damage won’t be mentioned. Returning to Zed, this is a unit that everyone is keen on because he is powerful wherever he appears; however, his most frustrating quality only comes to light when he has items that convert to Mage.
Guardian Angel, Mage’s Cap, and Redemption are the “max power” combo for Zed, allowing him to turn a 1vs9 into a 10vs9 or even a 20vs9 if desired. Initially, maps filled with “Zeds” left the League of Legends community in shock.
Veigar (Mage – Shadow)
Another contender from season 2. The legend of legends – this Yordle wizard has the ability to one shot enemies when reaching 3 stars. Even when he lacks items, the buff from the Water trait is enough for Veigar to eliminate 2 enemy team members with just one cast; if equipped with the Archangel’s Staff, it results in a picture that echoes cries.
It must be acknowledged that units in seasons 1 and 2 were significantly harder to reach 3 stars than they are now; thus, almost any player with a 3-star Veigar becomes a force that everyone else fears facing.
