Ez mode: I recommend Lion. Two disables so you can participate in fights early and easily and a big damage nuke for the satisfaction. Really fun to get your ult, check to see they have less than 450 health, then nuke them out of nowhere. Don't steal kills with it but it's good to get rid of one person and go on the other in a fight. Just remember you're squishy.
Ahaha. no. Lion is as you said really squishy. I think he wants more of pub stompers so he can ease into the game.
Pub stompers: Pick a hero that can easily go invisible or really hard to pin down, has few buttons, or can push like a monster.
Invis heroes:
Bounty Hunter - abuse Track Gold for free movement speed, and gold if the enemy dies
Rikimaru - permanent invisibility and is meant to pick off targets, kinda like Evelynn meets Shaco
Weaver - squishy, but is tough like a cockroach if you make best use of his abilities
Nyx Assassin - you use your ultimate to chase, find, and then explode squishy heroes using all your abilities. Played right you are incredibly annoying
Escape heroes: Slark is probably the closest to Fizz in this game; he needs to snowball early, but if he gets that snowball advantage he's really mean. Pounces at targets, really fast and regens lots of HP with a maxed ultimate passive, and is meant to be a ganker (aka assassin).
Easy heroes/few buttons:
Sniper - Sniper sounds easy, but has no means to escape ganks and is very squishy. However, bad teams will die to him because they don't bother ganking him nonstop
Wraith King - a carry that has a free 100% Guardian Angel on himself each time it's off cooldown and only has to worry about one active ability
Viper - Only really needs to use one button which is his ultimate
Drow Ranger - same issues as Sniper, but like Sniper is good against bad teams
Axe - fun as hell; Darius + more manliness
Ursa - he can out-manmode/out-duel any hero in the game that decides to let him attack them, and has lots of natural HP. Overpower + Fury Swipes is all you really need, with his ultimate for more damage
Monster pushers:
Death Prophet - no joke, a bad coordinated team will let her melt towers to death with her ultimate
Nature's Prophet - *Quick disclaimer: DON'T FUC'KING JUNGLE ON CLIFFS OR I'LL FIND YOU.* Normally a jungler that forces the enemy team to chase him around the map to avoid towers being destroyed thanks to global 20 second teleports, but can also gank to secure kills
Possible easy skillshot intense heroes:
Pudge - He's a very feared mid by newbies because they usually get caught by his hook. Think Blitzcrank for this hero
Mirana - She can make her whole team invisible with her ultimate and can leap. Her speciality is her skillshot ability Sacred Arrow, which is like Ashe's ultimate rolled into a shorter ranged single target stun. Can stun up to 5 seconds
Don't pick:
Invoker - has up to 10 spells he can use by using different combinations of 3 elemental essences
Meepo - He's pretty much controlling up to 5 individual heroes at once, and if any one of then dies then they all die
