Lab of Legends legendary difficulty

Hello everyone,

I am sure that a fair amount of you is playing the Lab of Legends and that a good amount of the LoL likes a challenge and plays on higher difficulty.

I personally find it quite challlenging  to beat legendary difficulty and I have to admit that I only managed to beat legendary on Riven.

This post is about sharing Impressions of the format, own stats and strategies for different champions that help to succed on legendary tier. 

So what have you encoutered? Do think the new challenge modes are hard enough? What is your favourite LoL Champion with what build?... and how tf you carry Azir in legendary Mode?!

Yet to try it I have 6 wins across the board except Shurima

and I didn't played other difficulties. just want to say something: taliyah is attrociously bad.

Riven is probably the easiest.

Aphelios is probaly the secound best (Even after nerfs..)

I tried out each difficulty now, it definitely felt like each difficulty got much harder than previous difficulties. I can definitely say that I like that there are more choices in difficulty now, though it kinda sucks that you have to unlock it one by one for each champion, it's annoying but it makes sense. So far, I've gotten everyone but Lulu to Legendary and only Heimer and Azir to Heroic.

It's funny to me because Azir is actually the first champion I got to Heroic (I haven't won Heroic yet), but I beat Legendary pretty easily with him. Pretty much everything that's good with MF will be good with Azir. Scouts, Rally, 1 cost spam, etc. All-in with Azir and just buff him up so you play him either earlier or make him stickier. That's my strategy at least. The only outright horrible card in his starting deck is Weight of JudgementBADCARDNAME but if you can get a mana discount treasure on it, it becomes playable in the Freljord and PnZ stages. The passives you want to try to get are mostly the epics such as Yipp's Genius, Lil' Buddies, Nature's Revenge, Domination. Any combination of that and you should win pretty much every fight on turn 5.

Also, I second the opinion that Taliyah is egregiously bad. I've tried winning using Landmarks only and just try to use her starting deck, but it's much easier if you find a second champion and just dump as many treasures as possible on that one instead. It took me a while to get her to pass Hard and I only got through barely with Elise spiders + Yipp's Genius. I hope they buff her soon so that I can actually win with her in Legendary.

Your right on Taliyah, she rarely won me any game, I only managed to win on hard because I had a 2 mana 7/4 Leblanc with scout. 

You know is even more rediculous? LeBlanc with last breath: rally... 

Once she is leveled up you more or less have a 0 mana Katarina

However i found Taliyah not that terrible... just pick as many triafarian mights with her deck as possible and let the 5/4 do their thing
