What part of kit design do these ALL have in common?

HINT: It's on the checklist for all of Riot's new champions.

They can't use some part of their kit while rooted

Actually;

Leblanc 's passive still works, and if she is unrooted then things might get messy.

Kalista can still throw spears, use her Q, use her W, use her E, and also her R... because they don't displace her movement unless you click to move.

Zed can still use his W (to even get out a snare I think), use his Q, use his E, but I don't know about the R.

Ekko can still use his Q and his W.

I'm not sure but I think LeeSin can use his Q (part 1), but other than that...

Nidalee can still throw spears, use her Q, use her W, and her E.

Yasuo can use his Q and his W.

but, then again it all depends. I think snares should stop more than just movement, they should also silence a champion if caught for 3/4 the time they are snared, unless its Lux or Morgana, that can be just 1/2 of the time.

Imagine if:

Amumu doesn't get a silence, btw since he already has a stun in his kit.

Caitlyn has a snare to help her when enemies get caught in her traps. Her traps will more than likely be like Teemo's shrooms and have a limit to how many she can carry.

Elise 's E will have a silence for just a few seconds to allow a better assassination.

Jinx 's E will not have a silence... unless we up the mana and lower the damage. Sorry but its not that desperate.

Karma should get a silence for half her snare on normal W, and do 3/4 of the snare when with R.

Kassadin 's E should do a silence, since it was OP on his Q, waiting 6 spells for a poke with a silence would be fun. (If you don't like it, please comment bellow your reasons.)

Leblanc 's at a point where she doesn't need a silence with her power.

Lux will just have a 1/2 the time limit silence.

Morgana as well.

Rengar will have a 1/4 the time silence, and on full 5 stacks will do a 1/2 silence.

Ryze will not have a silence.

Soraka 's silence will last through the snare. Or at least 3/4s of it.

Swain 's will be 1/2.

Thresh no silence.

Varus full silence on the first target, and 3/4 silence for the duration of each other snare on his R.

Zyra will have a 3/4 second silence.

We won't know until someone tests this.

Good luck rooting them though, unless you're playing Ryze expect dodges for days.

tbh i don't think people hate vayne because she's vayne, but more because of the players.

At least that's how I am anyway. I don't mind Vayne. I just absolutely hate people who play vayne.

Meeks011Jun 14, 20151 votes

There's no real counter to Vayne's silver bolts. You can get Randuin's and Frozen Heart but THAT'S IT! That's only a 30% attack speed reduction, which is two daggers, which is 900 gold.

Malphite Is hilarious against her though.

Vistha KaiJun 15, 20151 votes

It's 30% of final AS after all other bonuses.

Ya, know for example 30% of 2.5 is 0.75.

Nasus Tryndamere

Goodest GamerJun 14, 201523 votes

i hate these champions beyond anything rational. these champions give me every disease in the damn universe. id rather suck 500dicks than play vs a nasus or trynd. so stupidly designed .

cPlmPiCGyrJun 14, 20156 votes

hey... i main nasus

Aych PiiJun 14, 201524 votes

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. When you giggle with glee as you chunk a turret for half its health with one auto, someone else somewhere in the universe has a heart attack. I hope you're pleased with yourself.

cPlmPiCGyrJun 14, 201510 votes

He's not a Leblanc with insane kill potential, sure he's tough but unless you've got 700 stacks u cant 1v5 Also, yes I enjoy being a tank, I don't like playing as squishies. If every action has an equal and opposite reaction; then while a lane bully such as Renekton or Gnar is stomping on me, I am growling in frustration as I stack upon minions.

EvilRabbittJun 14, 20152 votes

Stacking is immensely easier than it sounds. 700 by 35 minutes is not uncommon, even if they take a break.

Shield VillainJun 14, 20152 votes

You would have to literally AFK farm up until that point. Possibly even not go back, or go back and then TP right back to your lane for the next minion wave.

EvilRabbittJun 14, 20151 votes

But then you realize that afk farming nasus has taken the entirety of top lane, is 1v2ing like a giggling school girl, and is now making his way down to bot lane. What a beast.

Seemed necessary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jbp52Z9jRg0

Shield VillainJun 14, 20152 votes

At that point it's not about winning, it's about the enemy team losing. I've had a lot of games with an AFK Nasus Farmer. Typically we abuse that. 4v5 at every moment, win, and then shove objectives and towers so hard that we're at their inhib before Nasus hits 300 stacks.

The goal of that game is to abuse the Afk Nasus and just win before he has his stacks. So the only way to cheese a Nasus victory like that is to get stuck with a bronze 5 enemy team that won't take advantage of your lack of presence.

I Main SwainJun 15, 20151 votes

while I know it isn't accurate for a real game in any way whatsoever, I once played a custom as nasus to see how quickly I could stack under the most ideal circumstances.

1000 stacks before 20 minutes

supes the lostJun 15, 20151 votes

... I never realized Nasus was capable of something like that.

I Main SwainJun 15, 20151 votes

i know right? i knew that it could be done pretty fast, but thats rediculous.

cPlmPiCGyrJun 23, 20151 votes

URF Nasus is beast. 1000 by 15.

No, there isn't a SINGLE REASON that every champion is hated, but it upsets me that Riot keeps making the same design mistakes.

Downvoted for thinking not every champion is hated for the exact same set of reasons? I don't even,....

SammystormJun 14, 20158 votes

That is completely biased. Some people like them and some people don't. Also how do you know they are the most hated? Did you do a survey?

TheRakkunJun 15, 20151 votes

2 of those have hooks, one of them has a stun so long it might as well be a hook, the other is Satan.

DrNovaJun 14, 20157 votes

The thing that they all have in common is bad players who complain about them instead of learning to play against them.

3TWarriorJun 14, 20153 votes

cuz everyone has full rune pages, an extensive knowledge of every champ in the game, a mobile champion(the most expensive other than yi) to counterplay them, a mobile champion that doesn't require playing in the jungle role, a mobile champion with enough poke damage to counter their intargetable states (fought a zed today while playing as tanky nasus...he did 3k damage in under 2 seconds and yes, I had armor to counter his damage...he wasn't even fed)

yasuo can kill just about anyone early and late game other than xerath/ziggs or other characters with artillery mechanics(isn't that less than 10 champs...) xerath, ziggs, urgot (actually, I don't even know if that works because his E moves towards them shrug), brand, and i can't think of anyone else

I take more offense though to when riot's OP servers give me "attempting to reconnect" for 30 minutes of the game while nothing is using internet

if this wasn't one of the only fun free games, i'd probably bother to download heroes of the storm XD

Meeks011Jun 14, 20151 votes

(fought a zed today while playing as tanky nasus...he did 3k damage in under 2 seconds and yes, I had armor to counter his damage...he

wasn't even fed)

I feel you. I watched a Zed on my team put a Taric from 4000 to 0 with one burst. Taric was at 1000 health at the end but Zed's ult still hadn't triggered. I was thinking "it's not going to kill him", but he popped and Zed walked away knowing it would.

There is may too much fucking anti-tank in this game. There are like 6 anti-tank items. Liandry's, Ruin King, Black Cleaver, Last Whisper, etc. I did the math and ruin king adds like 300 physical damage to the first few hits vs a 5000 health person. That's fucking ridiculous.

With Last Whisper, and Black Cleaver you penetration 65% of enemy's armor. Add in runes, masteries, and the flat armor pen you have and that's around 75%. So a 400 armor Malphite will have the equivalent of 100 armor. That's fucking 300 armor, or 4-5 items worth taken care of with 2 items.

VentiraJun 15, 20151 votes

And then there is Vayne, who outright nullifies every single item a tank could buy at LEVEL TWO.

Meeks011Jun 16, 20151 votes

Yeah, in the death recap she is dealing more true damage than physical damage.

P0IS0N IVYJun 14, 201524 votes

Or you know we could learn to play against them and hate them anyway.

Especially Kalista. Fuck Kalista.

DrNovaJun 14, 20152 votes

Yeah, I dislike yas as well

EvilRabbittJun 14, 20153 votes

Yas has no meaningful cooldowns (highest one at 40% cdr and lvl 16 is his ulti. 17 seconds. Thats a joke, right riot?) which is what bothers me. Kalista.... not even going to get started. I'm glad she is squishy, but utterly pissed that if I can't kill her with my one/two gap closers...well then I'm just dead. No window of weakness on this champion. =/ Excuse me while I learn how to main Annie to shut down all these hyper mobility champs XD.

TheRakkunJun 15, 20151 votes

I though riot's balance idea was that resourceless champs (Flow isn't a resource for anything but that fucking shield) were meant to have high CD's to compensate, what was that Riven Katarina Yasuo Tryndamere (rage isn't spent on abilities)

EvilRabbittJun 15, 20151 votes

Trade-off is supposedly high cooldowns which makes cdr necessary (see riven) or low damage per ability (see Katarina and Yasuo). However.... spammable, low damage with next to no repercussion sounds a bit....yea....

TheRakkunJun 15, 20151 votes

I assumed that it was supposed to be high cooldowns even WITH CDR

YorukinJun 14, 20155 votes

all of Riot's new champions.

Bard (cough)

KeevalroyJun 14, 20152 votes

{quoted}

(cough)

The only inherently toxic part of Bard is how the Bard player can lead the enemy team into their's at low health or purposefully kill members of their team by ulting them as they run away...or how they frequently abandon their lane partner to go off on an adventure through the enemy jungle - which is ALWAYS a fantastic idea apparently.

On second thought, he's not very healthy either.
