He\u2019s in a group of champions called \u201cjuggernauts\u201d, who are able to deal large amounts of damage while being able to tank as well. The big drawback to these champions is that they struggle against ranged champions, since they don\u2019t have much range themselves. Thankfully, the top lane is usually filled with melee champions, so juggernauts typically an easy class to start learning with. And Garen is one of the best there is. He has a large amount of AoE damage with his E, but can also stay safe thanks to his W and his passive. His passive is a large amount of health regen, while his W is a spike of damage reduction. His abilities are simple, but strong. This makes him a perfect champion for those who are looking for an easy and effective beginning top laner.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103927\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103927\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103927 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/DrMundo_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/DrMundo_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/DrMundo_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/DrMundo_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/DrMundo_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/DrMundo_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103927\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Mundo: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some other options for top lane are <strong>Dr. Mundo<\/strong> and <strong>Nasus.<\/strong> Both are juggernauts as well, with their own unique benefits. Mundo is particularly similar to Garen. He has a similar passive (increased health regeneration), and an ability that causes a field of damage around him over time. He also doesn\u2019t have mana, his abilities cost health instead. But don\u2019t worry, his passive and ultimate (a burst of health regeneration) will keep you healthy. <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103928\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103928\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103928 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nasus_Splash_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nasus_Splash_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nasus_Splash_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nasus_Splash_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nasus_Splash_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nasus_Splash_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103928\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nasus: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Nasus, on the other hand, is all about one ability. Every time you kill a minion with his Q, it gains additional permanent damage. These stacks of damage scale infinitely, so you can get a crazy amount of damage in the late game. It\u2019ll take some practice to master killing minions, but that practice will help with learning to kill minions on other champions. By gaining damage this way, you can build yourself as a tank, and become unkillable while still being able to do a lot of damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Jungle<\/b><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103929\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103929\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103929 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nunu_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nunu_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nunu_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nunu_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nunu_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Nunu_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103929\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nunu: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you are unfamiliar with the MOBA genre, then the jungle is probably the most confusing position to think about. The other positions are pretty straight-forward. Top, mid, and bot go down their lane to kill minions and take towers, while supports provide utility for the team. Junglers, on the other hand, are less straightforward. Thankfully, there are champions that make it easier to learn this role. And none are better at doing that than <strong>Nunu<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The three things that junglers need to do are: kill jungle monsters, take objectives like Dragon and Baron Nashor, and killing enemy laners (aka ganking). Nunu is particularly skilled at the first two. He is able to kill monsters faster than most champions with his Q (which also heals and buffs him). He also has buffs and slows to help him attack enemy junglers who are trying to take the objectives he wants. And despite being a tank, he has the highest damaging ultimate in the game. If you don\u2019t understand how the jungle works, Nunu is the best champion to teach yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103930\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103930\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103930 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/victor-maury-warwickbasesplashvictormaury.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"979\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/victor-maury-warwickbasesplashvictormaury.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/victor-maury-warwickbasesplashvictormaury-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/victor-maury-warwickbasesplashvictormaury-768x470.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/victor-maury-warwickbasesplashvictormaury-1024x627.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/victor-maury-warwickbasesplashvictormaury-1200x734.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103930\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Warwick: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While Nunu is more focused on fighting in the jungle itself, <strong>Warwick<\/strong> tends to focus on ganking the lanes. Once he\u2019s killed a few jungle monsters, he\u2019ll be strong enough to jump into a lane and try to kill the enemy laners. His W gives him increased movement speed towards low health enemies, while his Q lets him jump to them and do a large chunk of damage. He also has one of the best crowd control abilities in the game called a suppress. His ultimate lets him leap in a direction, and if he lands on a champion, he steals life from them for a short time, while they are unable to do anything. He\u2019s also much tankier than other damage dealing junglers, so it\u2019s not as harsh if you mess up a bit with him.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103931\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103931\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103931 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/shyvana_00_base-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103931\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shyvana: 3150 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Shyvana<\/strong> is somewhere in between Nunu and Warwick when it comes to the jungler\u2019s role. Like Nunu, she is able to take objectives quickly (specifically the dragon, which she does increased damage to), and like Warwick she is able to gank effectively. Her ultimate turns her into a dragon and increased the damage and utility of all of her other abilities. She\u2019s incredibly strong in this form, and can easily take on enemy junglers like this.

And there\u2019s a good reason for that! She has a lot of damage, an easy combo to learn, point-and-click abilities, a very long stun, and a giant bear. She gets a charge of her passive every time she uses an ability. Once she has four charges, her next ability will stun whatever enemies it hits. Her Q is a fireball that deals a lot of damage. If you kill a minion with it, then it refunds the mana spent on it. This is part of what makes her so easy. Mages sometimes have a hard time killing minions early in the game. But with Annie\u2019s Q, she\u2019s able to do it as well as any other champion. It also stacks her passive, so it\u2019ll end up giving you a free stun after you\u2019ve killed four. <strong>If you\u2019re looking for an easy champion to help you learn the game, Annie is by far the best choice.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103933\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103933\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103933 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Morgana_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Morgana_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Morgana_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Morgana_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Morgana_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Morgana_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103933\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Morgana: 1350 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You may have noticed from the previous champions, but some of the things that make a champion good for beginners is being: ability to kill minions easily, ability to crowd control other champions (stun, snare, suppress, etc) and being safe\/hard to kill. These are also what makes <strong>Morgana<\/strong> such a great champion. While some choose to play her as a support, because she has a long snare, and a shield from enemy crowd control, she is just as effective in the mid lane.

He places bombs with his Q that detonate after a short time, or by placing a second bomb on the first one, that also causes enemies in the bomb radius to be stunned for a short time. He can place the second bomb by using his W, Rewind, that reduces the cooldown of his Q and E. His E is a movement speed boost which is great for escaping and chasing enemies down. The best part of his kit, however, is definitely his ultimate. It lets him place a buff on himself or an ally. If that champion dies while the buff is on them, they are revived after a few seconds. With this, Zilean is able to keep himself and his allies alive and safe while doing a good amount of damage. As stated, he\u2019s a bit complicated, but if you mess up his abilities, you can always escape with your E and your ultimate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Bot Lane<\/b><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103935\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103935\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103935 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ashe_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ashe_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ashe_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ashe_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ashe_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ashe_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103935\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ashe: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whether you\u2019re new to League or a veteran player, you probably played as <strong>Ashe<\/strong> when you first downloaded the game. She is the tutorial champion, and that probably explains why she is on this list. Similar to Garen in simplicity, Ashe is always easy and effective. Her abilities aren\u2019t complicated, and that\u2019s a big benefit to the people who play her. She is also one of the only bot laners who is useful even if you fall behind. Her ultimate is one of the best utility moves in the game. It\u2019s a stunning arrow that can travel the entire map until it hits someone. She\u2019s also able to slow enemies with her auto attacks and abilities, which is great for learning how to attack while running away from someone (kiting). She\u2019s not always the best bot laner, but she is always a useful one, and definitely worth learning.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103936\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103936\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103936 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sivir_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sivir_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sivir_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sivir_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sivir_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sivir_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sivir: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Sivir<\/strong> fall into a similar category as Ashe. They are referred to as \u201cutility marksmen\u201d. This is because most marksmen (also referred to as ADCs or bot laners), don\u2019t have utility abilities. This means that if they die a lot in the early game, they are unable to do much of anything later in the game. While there are some other utility marksmen (such as Kalista and Varus), they are much harder to learn than Sivir and Ashe. Sivir is able to kill minions quickly and easily with her W and Q. She also has a spell shield to keep her safe, something no other bot laner has. Along with this, her ultimate is a burst of speed for your entire team, which can help you escape or engage your enemy. Like Ashe, she\u2019s always useful, and really easy to learn.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103937\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103937\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103937 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ezreal_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ezreal_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ezreal_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ezreal_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ezreal_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Ezreal_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103937\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ezreal: 4800 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While most marksmen do their damage with their auto attacks, there are a few who do damage using their abilities. The easiest and safest of these champions is by far, <strong>Ezreal<\/strong>. Unlike the other champions on this list, his damage is mostly based on skillshots. But don\u2019t let this scare you, his are fairly easy to land, and he\u2019s a great champion to learn to use them on. This is because his E is a blink that lets him jump over walls and other terrain, while doing some damage to nearby enemies. He can use this to escape, so he can continue to use his skillshots from a safe distance. He\u2019s a little bit expensive compared to the other marksmen on this list, but he\u2019s definitely the safest one League has to offer. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Support<\/b><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103938\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103938\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103938 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Soraka_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Soraka_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Soraka_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Soraka_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Soraka_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Soraka_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103938\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Soraka: 450 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Support characters in video games are often associated with healers, and none are better healers in League than <strong>Soraka<\/strong>. She has the best healing abilities in the game, while also bringing a lot of unique utility. Her ultimate is particularly useful, as it heals every ally champion regardless of where they are. Unlike most supports, she\u2019s able to use this to support from\u00a0 anywhere on the map, making her really effective and easy as far as the healers go.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103939\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103939\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103939 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sona_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sona_0.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sona_0-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sona_0-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sona_0-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Sona_0-1200x708.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103939\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sona: 3150 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While Soraka has some damaging abilities, she\u2019s mostly valued for her healing. <strong>Sona<\/strong> is the opposite of this. She can heal and buff her allies, but her main strength is in her damage. If you\u2019re looking for a support that deals damage, Sona is one of the easiest and most effective champions at doing this.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103940\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103940\" style=\"width: 1215px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103940 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/b-splash.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1215\" height=\"738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/b-splash.jpg 1215w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/b-splash-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/b-splash-768x466.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/b-splash-1024x622.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/b-splash-1200x729.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1215px) 100vw, 1215px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103940\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Braum: 6300 BE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not all supports are healers, and <strong>Braum<\/strong> is a great example of this. He is a defensive tank that can use his shields and crowd control to keep enemies away from his allies. His abilities are centered around saving his allies, and stunning the enemy to turn fights around. If you want to play support, but are not a fan of healers, Braum is an excellent choice. He is, however, the most expensive champion on this list; so it may take you some time to get him if you want to try him out.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-related-articles-white\">\r\n<p class=\"sc-related-articles-white__title\">More from Softonic<\/p>\r\n  <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__row\">\r\n    <a title=\"The top 10 free-to-play MMORPGs you should be playing right now\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-top-10-free-to-play-mmorpgs-you-should-be-playing-right-now\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/blade-and-soul-2.png)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>The top 10 free-to-play MMORPGs you should be playing right now<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n    <a title=\"3 ways to get better at Overwatch\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/3-ways-to-get-better-at-overwatch\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/brigitte.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>3 ways to get better at Overwatch<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__row\">\r\n    <a title=\"The 10 best games on Playstation Now\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-10-best-games-on-playstation-now\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/infinite-vista.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>The 10 best games on Playstation Now<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n    <a title=\"Top 5 Battle Royale Games\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/top-5-battle-royale-games\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/h1z1.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>Top 5 Battle Royale Games<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<!-- Shortcode [playwire] does not match the conditions -->\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With over 140 champions, it can be a bit daunting to decide who to play in League of Legends.
