But any classification of League champions is going to be crappy. If I defined a "dog" to be an animal with 4 legs and fur and a wagging tail, you'd get contrarians who are like "I knew a three legged dog, is he no longer a dog? Are cats dogs because they have 4 legs? Are hairless dogs still dogs?" and conclude that the "dog" label is useless. This classification does pretty well though I think there's too much AD/AP influence on the splits. A true classification system, in my mind, is mostly agnostic towards whether you build AD or AP, and you would expect champs like Vladimir to share some traits with Darius instead of being totally separate. | ||

He's close to the Unique class since early game he's a hybrid Diver/Artillery archetype, and transitions more and more to Artillery as the game goes on.

I think the issue with the seeming AD/AP splits in the qualifications is how you get the champion to work. How do you make characters that would build AD and work like a mage? If they're melee, the end up being a diver or skirmisher. If they're ranged, they end up being Marksman most of the time. AD champions don't really have the tools to operate in "mage" situations most of the time due to flatter itemization. | ||

I actually think it makes support Amumu totally viable. Support Amumu's biggest weakness was always a lack of tankiness/damage, but with Amumu's new passive and Galio's damage reduction both of those are solved, and Amumu can now build Talisman/Righteous Glory and focus solely on getting into position for a good ult. | ||

if i really wanted the galio amumu combo i'd take him jungle over support. especially over coin amumu. sounds like 1v2 ing lane and hoping you don't get snowballed on and galio anything is pretty strong atm, champs busted | ||

I'd imagine Amumu could only be picked into other melee supports and even then you have worse gank assist than everyone and no kench like defense. | ||
