The One For All mode will officially return in patch 10.6. This is the first time this mode has returned since August 2018, so there will be many new champions as well as reworked champions being tested for the first time during this period. Here are the top 5 most powerful and interesting champions for players to choose from to ‘party’ in the upcoming matches:
5. Trundle
Unlike other champions on this list, Trundle is not really chosen for his abilities in team fights. Although 5 Trundles using the ultimate Subjugate simultaneously with many Ice Pillars erected can create a lot of chaos in 5v5 fights, the reason Trundle is so fun to ‘party’ with in One For All is thanks to his ability to destroy towers super quickly and his all-mid playstyle.
Get a team with four friends, vote for Trundle, and focus all on mid! You and your teammates can clear minions and destroy enemy towers super fast with normal attacks combined with Q – Chomp – no one can match Trundle in tower destruction. This strategy is often more effective in lower ranks as the enemy team usually struggles to counter it.
4. Wukong
As we all know, Wukong’s rework will officially appear in patch 10.6, coinciding with the return of One For All. This is the perfect opportunity for League of Legends players to test him in various roles with different item builds to familiarize themselves and practice thoroughly before taking him into Ranked.
In One For All, when all 5 Wukongs use the W – Decoy skill simultaneously, you will witness a spectacular sight of 10 Wukongs appearing on the Summoner’s Rift map. The real deadly power of Wukong lies in his ultimate, which deals damage based on a percentage of maximum health and can now be used twice within 8 seconds. Just imagine 10 Cyclones extending throughout the team fight, and you won’t be surprised when Wukong becomes one of the most OP champions in One For All mode.
3. Yasuo
Very few champions have better synergy in One For All than Yasuo. All you need is a well-timed knock-up before all five players can jump in with R – Last Breath and shred the enemy team.
However, don’t just spam R; look for the right angle, attack 3 or more enemies with a knock-up before everyone dives in. Yasuo is particularly effective against long-range champions with five Wind Walls (W), making him nearly immune to damage as he dashes back and forth in team fights.
2. Qiyana
One of the new champions first played in One For All with OP power is Qiyana. Firstly, she deals massive damage with Edge of the Blade (Q) after just a few lethality items, very suitable for the fast-paced gameplay of One For All. Secondly, she can quickly move across the map with Mobile Shoes and Terrain Manipulation (W), making all 5 Qiyanas almost impossible to catch throughout the game.
And finally, the scariest aspect of Qiyana in One For All is the potential to use Supreme Display of Talent (R) five times in a team fight. If just dealing damage isn’t enough to take down an enemy, stunning them for 5 seconds is more than enough to send them back to the fountain.
1. Ekko
The top champion in One For All is none other than Ekko. Just one Ekko in Solo Q is enough to give the entire enemy team a headache, and with four more threats, they will have no choice but to surrender sooner or later.
Using Phase Dive (E) and Chronobreak (R) in team fights makes it nearly impossible to lock down Ekko, but these two skills are not even the most dangerous factors in his kit.
Typically, the deciding factor when playing Ekko is the ability to land Parallel Convergence (W) accurately and utilize the stun time it provides. But when you have 5 Ekkos on your team, missing W becomes nearly impossible. As long as the enemy is stunned, they will quickly be burst down due to the fact that all 5 Ekkos can use their passive Z-Drive Resonance almost instantly. Hopefully, this champion will be banned in almost every One For All match, but if he is let through, make sure to lock him in immediately and enjoy the joy of victory.
