I might try for the Perfect Ascension Icon - anyone found champs they feel are really good in Ascension?
I tried Annie first just to have something I felt comfortable with - but she goes OOM too fast I found, and champs need sustain it seems since you cant recall. Annie's burst and damage were great, was top damage and murderstun bear out of all the bushes made for plenty of multikills, but I feel there is almost certainly better.
I'm thinking Vlad could be good, possibly Garen (but I never play him), maybe Morgana?
Alternately Teemo and Shaco could be very strong since they can't recall to heal and the match is all tight alley fights and objective capture - eggs/boxes would murder people (plus all the face-checking of bushes you need to do).
Pantheon on our team built straight AD and was reliably getting the Xerath killing blow with it - that was pretty cool - but he wasn't very useful outside of that trick, even with the Ascended buff.
