In League of Legends, there are many champions whose difficulty is proportional to their strength, such as Zed, Riven, or Nidalee. Conversely, there are champions who are very powerful even if the player does not possess high skills. These champions can help you climb the ranks extremely effectively if you find yourself in an uncomfortable position or are simply looking for new options.
Here is a list of some very powerful champions that do not require high skills to use:
Garen – Top Lane
In the laning phase, Garen can hold lane quite well with his passive Perseverance and clear minions relatively quickly with Judgment (E). If ganked, Garen can safely return with the survivability from Courage (W) combined with the slow cleanse from Decisive Strike (Q).
In team fights, Garen can easily charge into the enemy team with his skillset. Notably, with the silence from Q, many champions in the current meta will have to be wary of Garen. Once hit by Garen, the target will suffer reduced armor and continuous health loss, culminating in a finishing blow with his ultimate dealing percentage true damage based on the target’s missing health.
Maokai – Top Lane
It can be said that patch 10.4 has indirectly increased Maokai’s damage by buffing the Flame Chaperon. For a long time, Maokai was a very strong tank top champion, holding lane effectively with his passive Sap Magic, quickly clearing minions with Sapling Toss (Q) and Twist of Fate (E). His two hard crowd control skills, W and R, also help Maokai gank or coordinate well with junglers to secure kills.
In the later stages, Maokai’s tiny saplings will effectively control bushes. His ultimate can initiate fights from extremely long range, allowing Maokai to easily approach and lock down targets with W.
Warwick – Jungle
In the jungle, Warwick can utilize his lifesteal to farm with very high health, without fear of enemy invasions and ganks.
When ganking, low-health enemies become very enticing targets for Warwick as his Blood Hunt (W) skill boosts his movement and attack speed. The combination of skills E + R offers Warwick highly effective hard crowd control for both multi-target and single-target ganks. In team fights, Warwick’s survivability and lifesteal allow him to thrive, continuously dealing damage and healing to create space for his team.
Trundle – Jungle
In the jungle, Trundle can reduce the damage of targets with Chomp (Q) and heal from his passive, making it very easy to farm.
When ganking, Trundle can easily block enemies’ escape routes with Pillar of Ice (E) and approach with Subjugate to deal damage. At first glance, this may not seem effective, but each time Trundle does this, he can deal significant damage or even secure kills. In team fights, Trundle’s ultimate, Subjugate, becomes a weapon to counter all tank champions in League of Legends as it steals a percentage of the target’s maximum health, armor, and magic resistance for himself. At that moment, tank champions become more fragile than ever, and a quick burst of damage can take them down.
Annie – Mid Lane
In the laning phase, Annie can farm or poke easily with Disintegrate (Q) and Incinerate (W). Notably, with her straightforward stun, Annie can assist her jungler in ganks very effectively.
In team fights, Annie’s job is quite simple: find an opportunity, Flash to stun, and unleash all her skills onto the enemy team. At this moment, Tibbers will act as a wall to hold back the enemy team members, allowing Annie and her allies to freely unleash damage from behind.
