With League of Legends Worlds 2022 Play-In coming to an end, there are some very interesting conclusions to be drawn, whether it’s about which teams qualified for the Main Event, or which champions have been with us these past few years. past few days and provided us with action in Summoner’s Rift.
Today we are going to talk about a duo that can be quite effective and that we have already seen in several games of the tournament, together and separately. These are the still undefeated Varus and Tahm Kench who are viable and interesting alternatives when it comes to executing varied game plans where multiple ADCs are left out.
One ultimate to devour them all
Tahm Kench’s ultimate is one of the best in the game, and saving a teammate can win you a fight. The River King scales very well with stationary ADCs that don’t buy Wind Force. He doesn’t fare too badly in duels against Enchanters either, so it’s an interesting bet that more than one team will try in the tournament.
The other character who is no slouch when given the opportunity to come out is Varus. In a way, he reminds us a bit of Worlds 2019, as he could make it to the final stages of the tournament as a very interesting champion. In particular, he can offer good teamfight initiations to his team with corrupting chains and explosive damage thanks to his DPS build.
Aatrox, the character with the most priorities?
Many champions seemed to have a high priority and were required to be picked or banned, but surprisingly few of us expected to see Aatrox as the most important champion in the tournament, at least in terms of draft impact. Sword of the Darkin has a 96% Play-In attendance ratewhich makes him a fairly safe champion in the lane phase and when he has several items in his inventory, he is a real monster who will be difficult to kill,
We will now have to wait until Friday to see how this meta continues to evolve, and see if it remains more or less in the choices seen throughout this preview, or if it innovates and new characters appear in the team drafts.
This champion, released several times as a top laner in these Worlds of League of Legends, could very well be flex at the support position. Although it seems counterintuitive, Ornn has several arguments that could justify his presence and his effectiveness in this role.
