1. Allistar (The Support Tank)
Passive (Deals More Damage To Turrets)

Summoner Abilities: Blink/Ghost (Most Effective)/(Heal/Teleport)

Skill Build: This depends on who you're laned with. If you're laned with a hero who can harass well and requires healing to be effective you'd want to main you E ability (Triumphant Roar) to level 3.

If laned with someone who has a stun, you'll want to get one level of Q (Pulverize Sends heroes in to the air for 2 seconds), followed by one level of W(Headbutt sends targeted hero flying in the direction you are facing), followed one level of E. Returning to W as your main ability and off Leveling Q and grabbing R when its available).

This hero is not a carry, hes more of a tank that goes in stuns and separates ONE person from the rest of the group. Building tank items on him isn't a bad idea. Knowing how to get people to focus you is difficult because aside from a few stuns and pushes he is not a threat. Its only possible to build health and tank items if you can make sure you are keeping people controlled. This is why it is often better to allow allistar to be the support item tank.

Building items such as, Innervating Locket, Soul Shroud, Aegis of the Legion, Frozen Heart, Magic Resist Boots, Guardian Angel is the best way to go with him. You can substitute Guardian Angel with a Starks Fevor- although it is often better to allow one of the dps heroes to have this item for its added attack speed bonus.

This hero is relatively easy to do mediocre well, hard to excel with. He is considered one of the best tanks in the game because of his ultimate.

Timing his ultimate is key. This ability should probably never be used to break out of a long ranged stun like Morgana's. That's pretty much the only SOLID piece of advice I can offer about his ultimate.

Allistars Ultimate can be used to devastate towers while tanking them. (Virr)

2. Amumu (The Best Initiating Tank in the Game)
Passive: Reduces Magic resistance per hit

Summoner Abilities Heal/Teleport (primary) Smite/Ghost (creeping) Blink/Ghost or Blink/Heal (lane).


Skill Build
Q= Bandage Toss (Long ranged hook-pull ability)
W= Despair (%dmg that drains mana)
E= Tantrum (AoE damage, cooldown reduces one second per time you are hit, also decreases damage taken)
R= Curse of the Sad Mummy (AoE Damage spell that stuns for 3 second dealing damage)

Always level E first. This ability has an extremely strong base damage (275 at level 2). Off level Q, once you have some form of mana regen I would recommend getting one level of W.

This hero is a tank, not a carry and not a caster. Its smart to build an item that gives him base mana not just mana regen. A catalyst is not a bad starting item. If you are not able to land his bandage toss, having blink can help you blink in to a group of creep and heroes and set your ult off.

It is very important that you DO NOT waste R on a single hero past level 10. This will put you at a sever disadvantage in any team fight. He is by far the best initiating hero because he has an ability that allows him to pull himself in to a group.

Some recommended items:

Catalyst the Protector - Banshee's Veil
Dodge Boots
Warmogs Armor
Guardian Angel
Thornmail (Or Rylai's Scepter since W, will slow heroes)
Rod of Ages

Your Amumu's bandage toss is one of the most effective aid abilities in the game. If your partner is running away from someone a quick pull in to them will ensure that they get away since it come with a stun.

Managing W correctly is very important. Do not leave this ability on if there are no heroes around. It will drain your mana.

When aiming Q, aim slightly ahead of the hero. This ability is notorious for flying off the side and behind the hero. It does hit creep and can be hard to aim.

Cool, a guide for an unfair game.


JK before anyone QQ's at Ismael, I asked him to create this so I can learn.

Love,

3. Anivia (The Nuke/DPSer)
Passive (Comes back to life as an egg every

Summoner Abilities: This is pretty ambiguous. Flash is bad now since you can't use it while in egg form. Almost anything else paired with Teleport is good, especially if you're solo.

Skill Build:
Q = Flash Frost (trajectory nuke that explodes at its location to stun - can be triggered by pressing Q again)
W = Icewall (places an icewall to block off enemies - or lock them in!)
E = Frostbite (double-dmg nuke to slowed/frozen targets)
R = Blizzard (AOE slow, huge mana-drain)

One point in Q (Flash Frost) then main E (Frostbite). Get W (Icewall) instead of Q if you see fit. SOMETIMES your ult can be ignored if: you don't have enough regen and the other team is whoring out your golems.

Anivia is a strong magic-based nuker who generally gets a lot of last hits. This will influence your item choices. Her ultimate is a huge mana sink and therefore should be used sparingly for: slowing large groups of people then turning it off, or getting a slow on one opponent to follow up with a Frostbite.

Her wall can be used very well tactically to cut off opponents from each other during clashes, though as you can imagine it can turn out poorly and end up screwing your team over.

Building items such as Rod of Ages, Tear of the Goddess, Mejai Soulstealer, Zhanya's Ring, Magic Boots can lead to a pretty solid game. An early-game Soulstealer combined with a lot of last hits will make your nukes a force to be reckoned with. However it may be better to start with a Doran's Ring.

This hero is fairly difficult to do well with, she has low HP and her Flash Frost can be tricky to aim at times. Played well she is a huge nuisance due to her burst.

Her ult is perfect for catching the other team off guard at Baron or Dragon, thereby starting the fight with an AOE slow.

--

4. Annie (Have You Seen My Bear Tibbers? - Magic Nuker)
Passive: Every 5 casts makes the next cast a stun (charges).

Summoner Abilities: Flash/Teleport (solo), Flash/Ignite (laned)

Skill Build:
Q = Disintegrate (straight damage nuke, returns mana if it gets a last-hit, stuns with passive)
W = Incinerate (AOE dmg cone, can stun with passive)
E = Molten Shield (shields against magic/physical)
R = Summon: Tibbers (summons pet with inital dmg to area, pet does AoE dmg to nearby enemies, stuns with passive)

The best way for Annie to shine is to get a level of Q first off and solo. A good Annie in a lane will have nearly if not all the creep kills per wave in her lane, since disintegrate refunds mana cost on last-hits.

Q should always be mained over W and E, with W taking precedence over E. Get her ult at 6, 11, and 16. A single point in E can be worth it over W to help stack her passive charges.

Annie is a primary magic nuker, tied in with some stuns every 5 casts. Because of this, she can either be played as a magic/tank or as a magic/cooldown summoner. Given a good lead, she can 3-shot most summoners with a Tibbers/Disintegrate/Incinerate combo, maybe even finishing off with a Molten Shield/Disintegrate for another stun.

Flash is a good way for Annie to catch an entire team off-guard with Tibbers granted she has her passive stun ready. Teleport is chosen as solo because you want to have as much time in the lane as you can, possibly going back for an early Mejai Soulstealer.

Her first item choice should be an Amplifying Tome and a Health Pot. The tome helps you last-hit with Q, and you might take some hits in your goal to get all the creep kills possible.

Depending on your build, you can get the following items: (magic/cooldown) Mejai Soulstealer, Fiendish Codex, Zhonya's Ring, Archangel's Staff, Lich's Bane, Soul Shroud, Magic Boots. (magic/tank) Rod of Ages, Frozen Heart, Soul Shroud, Mejai Soulstealer, Magic Boots.

I'm enjoying these posts.

Get to 38 already, make it intensely rapid by just doing a basic Hero name + list of what skills they have and what they do so I can just have a better idea of what to expect from other douche heroes

WOW PICKY THAT INFO IS IN THE ACTUAL GAME WOW

--

I know, I asked Ismael to do this for me because I couldn't find a list online and I am at work and just wanted to do some studying up on all the hero skills so I have enormously better situational awareness in game when I start playing again.

This way I get payed to be CAL-I.

Okay, I guess we can start with the basics. Gimme like 15.

--

I'll just bug you on vent for item builds and shit when I pick someone, lawl

This is actually gonna be more than 15 minutes, but it can be done in about two hours (about to leave for an hour).
