Globetrotter Challenge Compositions - nerdcore instance

Hi, did this thread mostly for myself and friends. Counted champs in lanes with 2k+ games in op.gg [http://op.gg] (or above 0% popularity in LeagueOfGraphs when op.gg [http://op.gg]’s server was down). If you don’t know, this [https://challenges.darkintaqt.com/challenge/303500] is the Globetrotter challenge. It consists of winning games with a premade party of five where only champions from a single region are used. It’s a fun team exercise :) It is organized like this: LANE: Primary-role champions (recommended) | secondary-role champions || people play this, I guess??? (viable but weak) Here it goes: IXTAL Malphite, Milio, Neeko, Nidalee, Qiyana, Rengar, Zyra TOP: Malphite | Rengar || Neeko, Nidalee, Qiyana JUNGLE: Nidalee, Rengar | Zyra || Malphite, Neeko, Qiyana MID: Neeko, Qiyana | Malphite SUP: Milio, Zyra | Neeko ADC: - Your main issue in Ixtal is that there is no ADC. Qiyana should be the best one as she snowballs, but she is also very hard to play. Statistics says Neeko is the most played of the seven in ADC role, but it’s a low number of games and may also just be indicative that Neeko is a champion with high pick rate, period. Overall I would go into alt pick because it’s so FUBAR the champion wouldn’t really matter. Bot lane, play safe and don’t feed. BANDLETREE Corki, Fizz, Gnar, Heimerdinger, Kennen, Kled, Lulu, Poppy, Rumble, Teemo, Tristana, Veigar, Vex, Yuumi, Ziggs TOP: Gnar, Kennen, Kled, Poppy, Rumble, Teemo | Heimerdinger || Tristana, Veigar JUNGLE: | Poppy, Rumble || Teemo MID: Corki, Fizz, Veigar, Vex | Kennen, Rumble, Tristana, Heimerdinger, Ziggs || Gnar, Kled, Poppy, Teemo SUP: Heimerdinger, Lulu, Yuumi || Poppy, Teemo, Veigar, Ziggs ADC: Tristana, Ziggs | Veigar || Heimerdinger - Pretty viable. BILGEWATER Fizz, Gangplank, Graves, Illaoi, Miss Fortune, Nautilus, Nilah, Pyke, Tahm Kench, Twisted Fate TOP: Gangplank, Illaoi, Tahm Kench || Fizz, Graves, Nautilus JUNGLE: Graves MID: Fizz, Twisted Fate | Gangplank || Graves, Illaoi, Pyke ADC: Miss Fortune, Nilah SUP: Nautilus, Pyke || Miss Fortune, Tahm Kench - Not only viable but strong-ish. Color me impressed? A warning: Graves has a very high ban rate. Go blind pick if you must. DEMACIA Fiora, Galio, Garen, Jarvan IV, Kayle, Lucian, Lux, Morgana, Poppy, Quinn, Shyvana, Sona, Sylas, Vayne, Xin Zhao TOP: Fiora, Kayle, Quinn | Poppy, Shyvana, Sylas, Vayne || Galio, Jarvan IV, Xin Zhao JUNGLE: Jarvan IV, Poppy, Shyvana, Xin Zhao | Sylas || Morgana* MID: Galio, Lux, Sylas | Kayle || Fiora, Jarvan IV, Lucian, Morgana, Quinn, Shyvana, Vayne, Xin Zhao ADC: Lucian, Vayne SUP: Morgana, Sona | Galio, Lux, Poppy || Jarvan IV, Sylas * Below 2k games on op.gg [http://op.gg] but I have a friend that seriously play this and he says it’s viable lol. - Who would say that Demacia champions were so versatile? Also, Lucian and Vayne have both quite low ban rates. PILTOVER Caitlyn, Camille, Corki, Ezreal, Heimerdinger, Jayce, Orianna, Seraphine, Vi TOP: Camille, Jayce | Heimerdinger || Ezreal JUNGLE: Vi MID: Corki, Heimerdinger, Orianna | Jayce, Seraphine || Caitlyn, Ezreal, Vi ADC: Caitlyn, Ezreal | Seraphine SUP: Heimerdinger, Seraphine - Vi and Heimerdinger have <1% banrates. You can go alt pick pretty safely. SHADOW ISLES Elise, Evelynn, Fiddlesticks, Gwen, Hecarim, Kallista, Karthus, Maokai, Senna, Thresh, Viego, Yorick TOP: Gwen, Maokai, Yorick || Fiddlesticks, Karthus, Senna, Viego JUNGLE: Elise, Evelynn, Fiddlesticks, Hecarim, Karthus, Maokai, Viego || Gwen MID: | Karthus || Fiddlesticks, Gwen, Viego ADC: Kallista | Karthus || Senna* SUP: Senna, Thresh | Fiddlesticks, Karthus, Maokai * 40% winrate. Only if you’re desperate. - For some reason Vex and Kindred aren’t here, because then your ADC could play Karthus or Kindred instead of Kallista. Other than that, that’s a pretty fun region for everyone but your ADC! SHURIMA Akshan, Amumu, Azir, K’Sante, Naafiri, Nasus, Rammus, Renekton, Sivir, Skarner, Taliyah, Xerath, Zilean TOP: K’Sante, Nasus, Renekton | Akshan, Naafiri || Azir, Rammus, Skarner JUNGLE: Rammus, Skarner, Taliyah | Naafiri MID: Akshan, Azir, Naafiri | Taliyah, Xerath || K’Sante, Nasus, Renekton, Sivir, Zilean ADC: Sivir || Taliyah, Xerath SUP: Xerath, Zilean || Taliyah - Some really simple and some really complex champions, which makes it a bit odd. Naafiri is very flexible but also has the highest banrate of the patch. TARGON Aphelios, Aurelion Sol, Diana, Leona, Pantheon, Soraka, Taric, Zoe TOP: Pantheon || Aurelion Sol JUNGLE: Diana || Pantheon, Taric MID: Aurelion Sol, Zoe | Diana, Pantheon ADC: Aphelios || Aurelion Sol SUP: Leona, Pantheon, Soraka, Taric || Zoe - Limited pool of inflexible champions will make many cry blind pick. However, if you notice, this cast has a low ban rate (highest being Leona at 4.7%). FRELJORD Anivia, Ashe, Braum, Gnar, Gragas, Lissandra, Nunu&Willump, Olaf, Ornn, Sejuani, Trundle, Tryndamere, Udyr, Volibear TOP: Gnar, Olaf, Ornn, Trundle, Tryndamere, Volibear | Gragas || Anivia, Lissandra, Sejuani, Udyr JUNGLE: Gragas, Nunu, Sejuani, Udyr | Trundle, Volibear || Olaf, Tryndamere* MID: Anivia, Lissandra | Gragas || Gnar, Nunu, Ornn, Tryndamere, Volibear ADC: Ashe SUP: Braum | Gragas || Anivia, Ashe, Lissandra, Nunu, Ornn, Sejuani, Trundle * <40% winrate, don’t unless you are really good at him - Did you like making do with an adc in Ixtal? I hope your adc also did, since Ashe has a 11.42% banrate. Seriously, go blind pick. Help Ashe unify the tribes after all those years. IONIA Ahri, Akali, Irelia, Ivern, Jhin, Karma, Kayn, Kennen, Lee Sin, Lilia, Master Yi, Rakan, Sett, Shen, Syndra, Varus, Wukong, Xayah, Yasuo, Yone, Zed TOP: Irelia, Kennen, Sett, Shen | Akali, Wukong, Yone, Zed || Ahri, Karma, Kayn, Lee Sin*, Lillia, Master Yi, Syndra, Varus, Yasuo JUNGLE: Ivern, Kayn, Lillia, Master Yi, Wukong | Zed || Lee Sin MID: Ahri, Akali, Syndra, Yasuo, Yone, Zed | Irelia || Karma, Kennen, Lee Sin*, Sett, Varus, Wukong ADC: Jhin, Varus, Xayah || Syndra, Yasuo, Yone SUP: Karma, Rakan || Kennen, Lee Sin*, Sett, Shen, Yasuo* * Lee Sin is kinda shit at anything that isn’t Jungle. Top makes do, but Mid and Sup do not. * <40% Winrate. You got plenty of better choices, Yasuo mains. - I think the champions are a bit hard to learn, but at least you got plenty of choices. NOXUS Cassiopeia, Darius, Draven, Katarina, Kled, LeBlanc, Rell, Riven, Samira, Sion, Swain, Talon, Vladimir TOP: Darius, Kled, Riven, Sion | Vladimir || Cassiopeia, Katarina, LeBlanc, Swain, Talon JUNGLE: | Talon || Rell, Riven*, Sion MID: Cassiopeia, Katarina, LeBlanc, Talon, Vladimir || Darius, Kled, Riven, Samira, Sion, Swain ADC: Draven, Samira || Cassiopeia, Sion, Swain SUP: Swain || LeBlanc, Rell, Sion * <40% winrate. Those days are long gone. - Congratulations, Sion, you’re the only one together with Karthus to fit all lanes! Seriously now, Samira is a super strong snowball. Noxus trolls Jungle and Support a bit, but Talon did worse. VOID Bel’Veth, Cho’Gath, Kai’Sa, Kassadin, Kha’Zix, Kog’Maw, Malzahar, Rek’Sai, Vel’Koz TOP: Cho’Gath || Bel’Veth, Kassadin, Malzahar, Rek’Sai JUNGLE: Bel’Veth, Kha’Zix, Rek’Sai MID: Kassadin, Malzahar | Cho’Gath, Vel’Koz || Kai’Sa, Kog’Maw ADC: Kai’Sa, Kog’Maw || Malzahar, Vel’Koz SUP: Vel’Koz || Bel’Veth, Cho’Gath, Malzahar - Pretty smooth. Nothing to add. ZAUM Blitzcrank, Dr. Mundo, Ekko, Janna, Jinx, Renata Glasc, Singed, Twitch, Urgot, Viktor, Warwick, Zac, Zeri, Ziggs TOP: Dr. Mundo, Singed, Urgot | Warwick, Zac || Ekko, Viktor JUNGLE: Ekko, Warwick, Zac || Dr. Mundo, Singed, Twitch* MID: Viktor, Ziggs | Ekko || Singed, Twitch, Urgot, Zac, Zeri ADC: Jinx, Twitch, Zeri | Ziggs || Viktor SUP: Blitzcrank, Janna, Renata Glasc || Singed, Twitch, Zac, Ziggs * 41% winrate. You have better picks. - Zaum I love, because there are tutorial-level champions to play in every role. I recommend you start here (or in whatever region you have more mains for in your premade).
