So my mom has been interested in league ever since I had gotten into it myself about a year ago. I talk to her all about it, and she asks if she can play. Of course I hand over my laptop and gladly make her an account and take her through the tutorial.

I mean, she’s 37, she’s not... the best at competitive games like this. She loves games like Skyrim and Fallout, those things. She chose MF as her champion because “she’s pretty and her guns are cool” but it’s a bit hard for her to understand the whole double bounce Q thing, and how if you move while ulting it stops going. I thought maybe Ahri would be good, she’s cute, her abilities are similar, and her ult is a dash. But... her ult is a dash. My mom plays with lock screen and I swear she loses her mouse in the minion waves.

I wanted to put her on Veigar, Teemo, or Lux, but “theyre ugly” lmfao

Suggestions? I’m a support main and I wanted to just put her on Soraka, but she said she wants to do a lot of damage. I know she probably won’t be good, but I just want her to have a champ she can at least be successful on, because she knows when she’s not doing well, but she doesn’t know how to fix it.

love you mom

Me too!! I'm happy this is the top response. Annie can dish out a TON of damage and her spells are easy to see and use so that's why I think this would be a great champion for your Mom. Plus her Q encourages last hitting so you can use it faster, and this could teach your mom the value of those last hits. Annie also has a lot of skins so hopefully your mom can find one that she likes.

Good luck to you and Mom!

edit: I sent them both a bit of RP to enjoy some skins and other characters. :) It's more fun to play with friends and in this case, family!
