Everyone's thoughts on katarina?
Just wondering what people think about her and how strong she is right now, if you think she needs nerfs, what do you think needs nerfing?
(just wondering out of curiosity)

I think she's a little bonkers if the person knows what they're doing, fortunately most people still seem to just smash buttons and hope for the best. Not really sure she needs nerfs though, if she did it would be to her very early level all ins since they are extremely potent.
kat can fuck off
no idea who thought her getting E resets without kills would be a good idea
Personally, I think her burst is a little too strong late game because of her q e w ult gunblade combo. It shreds with very little reaction time counter play. I understand that is the point of her kit, but I feel it is a little too strong. If I had to nerf anything I'd lower her ap scaling on her ult just a tad or nerf her base scaling on her ult late in the game. Because, her early game is weak for the reason she gets strong late. However, there is such a thing as a little too strong late. Not enough to be a need right away, but just a consideration.
Her ult just does too much damage in my opinion. The rest of her kit is fine but her ult..if you don't instantly flash out of it as a squishy you'll die almost immediately.
I think she is just way too strong. She is jumping all over the place. Doing way too much damage through-out the game. When she is behind it doesn't' matter. When she is ahead it doesn't matter. The new Kat is strong no matter what. Thematically Riot did a fantastic job. I like the changes they did to her. Unfortunately it is another case where they make a champion too strong, don't test it out, wait 4-5 months to fix a champion, and don't care. A Kat making a good play early game with ignite and her abilities is fine. A Kat being able to jump all over the map, do half my health at level 2, being too hard to catch, and more is a problem. She is a lot like early Zed before his nerfs. Too hard to catch and free high damage.
She requires too much mechanical effort relative to what she actually brings to the table to be good below pro-play, and she's too unsafe to see picks in pro-play.
So she's basically like Yas or Zed. Fun to play but not really all that strong.
