no room for "warriors"

is it just me or is there not much use for warriors anymore? they used to go solo lane, but now that role is dominated by gods like chang'e, ra, and hel. some of them can jungle i guess, but its still better to use an assassin so whats the point. i just think it is lame that if you want to play a fighter you are forced into solo lane most games, where the mage with a bunch of wave clear is going to zone and out-farm you.

as i said. warriors are sub-par junglers, for the most part, and in solo lane, they are also outplayed by mages like ra, hel, and chang'e.

im not saying they are not viable, just that that there is always a better option, and other than fun, there really isnt a good reason to play one that i could think of. i was hoping someone would help prove me wrong because i really like warriors.

Herc is one of the best solo laners out of the fact that a smart Herc is impossible to kill, ever. Seriously, a Herc with Meditation or the blue buff might just won't die.

true, he is hard to kill, but against a ra or hel will easily get out-farmed and zoned

I'd say if you want beat hercuels in solo lane you have to push him super hard early.

Since I play him the hardeest thing for me to do is def face a 2v1 when they push hard early.
Simply because hercules has a hard early game facing hard opponents.

His combo uses so much mana, early game he cannot clear a wave with his 1 yet.
Basically if you keep hercules at his tower early game he will be forced to use up his mana since his 2 will be needed to bring minions to him.

But if he does that then he will have low mana, but then again if he doesn't do it then his tower will take alot of damage.

Someone like anhur/hel in a lane vs hercules is hard to deal with. Basically you need to clear waves fast while having someone able to do quick damage to towers.

The only way for hercules to get out of control is once he starts getting kills or items.

Also I think a hel with armor vs hercules is better maybe.
If hel builds no defense hercules can kill her with his combo 2 + 1 then ult her against a wall which does twice the damage on his ult since the ball will bounce back.

At least with defense you can survive that then heal up.

A HUGE DISADVATAGE to hercules would be if you steal his blue buff early game buts its risky. The blue buff is what helps hercules early game ALOT.

Grrrr, I still have trouble remembering to get buffs... League, here, its never any different... Maybe i remember once then forget once it wears off...

As for warriors, you need to look beyond conquest. A warrior generally beats a tank in things like 3v3 and maybe even dom. Most pure tanks definitely cant 1v1 joust either, cept maybe since he just keeps pushing. Also, duo lane as a kill lane in conquest.

haha look beyond conquest. i never even thought about that. mostly because i think all the other gamemodes are pretty lame. i mean 3v3 is ok, but arena and assault... no thanks lol.

Personally I feel conquest is the only one not worth playing. Plus if i want it i can just go play Lol.
