    Somebody suggested me that I should try playing with free week champions. What are you're thoughts? Any recommendations? ;)

    Out of those for this week, I love Darius, Diana, and Viktor the most. Malphite isn't bad; Neither is Kayle but they're both Niche Roles rather then pure dps or support or tank. I've never really tried Kog that much, or Quinn, or Tahm/Bard, so I can't input. And if eve is anything like she used to be, she's still not worth playing. They need to give her old stealth back to her.

    Depending on role you enjoy/like, I'd suggest using those aligned champs. Like support? Try Bard or Kayle. Like to be a tanky douchebag? Darius or Malphite. Want AP burst with a stun ring like veigar, but better? Viktor.

    It really boils down to personal preference. Plenty of guides online for each of them!

    I have always believed there isn't a person alive who can't kick ass with Rengar.

    It depends on what role you want to play but if you're new try to play most of the campions from the free weekly rotation. It'll give you a good grasp about how they work.

    Yes, play the champions in rotation.

    FOr champs in general start with the cheap and easy ones like Master Yi, Annie, Garen, Ashe, Sona, Soraka.

    Well, I think I'm that person then, Decim. I just can't get the hang of Rengar whatsoever. He's way too difficult for my liking.

    I also concur with general rotation. Find what genre of champs you like the most and practice inside of it first, then branch out. Such as AD, Tanks, Supports, Jungles, Mid, or Top.

    Try them out different areas to, too find out how well you cope with different sections of the map. It's never wise to specialise in one area unless you're part of a team beforehand that knows what you like to do because other random people will want to be like you - your role - and sometimes you'll have to give it up to keep a team comp balanced, so it's wise to know bunches.

    Well it depends on what lane you want to play of course. BY the way if you go top a champion you could try is Garen/Wukong, they're really easy to learn. For jungle I would recommend Warwick which basically does all by itself. For midlane I would pick Brand which is really aggressive oriented and eventually Caitlyn/Blitzcrank for adc/supp.

    Garen is as easy as they come when it comes to new players because his difficulty level is low. If you're looking for ranged carry types then go for Graves or Caitlyn. If magic types are what you want the Veigar it is. First off when playing LoL you have to know which roles you like and master them.

    Not only that - learn to read the minimap more than you watch your lanes. Map Awareness = God in this game. Just like this comic!

    Characters with escapes and positioning tools are good first ones. Caitlyn, Zilean, others I can't think of right now. They'll help you learn positioning and can get you out of trouble for mistakes made.

    If you are looking for straightforward or easy champs I'd try out like Garen or caitlyn, Don't require insane mechanical skill or complex button sequences so should be pretty noob friendly.

    The reason I don't recommend Garen to newbies is because they need to know how to use his passive and regen the right way instead of leeroying into a fight. But most of the time, you get leeroys.

    A very EASY champ to learn? Blitzcrank. It's really not Hard. His Q is a skillshot. His W speeds him up. His E knocks things into the air. Click E-->W-->Q to catch someone. Hit R if you land hook or enemies around you for a silence to allow teammates to jump on people. A good blitz can single 'handedly' win a League Match. And he's seriously not that hard. And his passive granting a shield before death is very newbie friendly. Couple this with the fact his fits a support role, and then even if you SUCK at him, you're not totally bringing the team down - top is still farmed, hopefully jungle helped gank mid, and hopefully your AD was farming in your time of failure.

    Let me put you a list of champions based on every role:

    Top - Darius - it's easy to learn and master early;
    Mid - Diana - it's essentially a no-brainer champ that's got everything you need packed in one;
    ADC - Miss Fortune - that Q though...
    Support - Blitzcrank - that Q though...
    Jungle - Sejuani - it pretty much carries any late game.
