I play very squishy champions so I hate the fact that EVERY time I walk back to lane she has Ulti up again and in a long fight might even use it twice, like for the amount of damage she does, why are her cooldowns so low?
Also I heard she gets CD resets?
Every recent takedown (kill or assist) she gets resets her cooldowns by 10(?) 15 seconds. When she picks up a dagger, her Shunpo (blink + auto reset) gets its cooldown reduced by 10 seconds or so. Her ultimate is relatively low damage compared to the rest of her kit, and is mainly used to finish people off to enable the rest of her abilities.
The key to fighting Katarina in lane phase is paying attention to if she picks up her daggers after blinking to you, because if not, she's vulnerable.
It's also good to mention that her Shunpo can blink her to friendly or enemy minions, friendly or enemy champions, plants (blast cone, honeyfruit, scrying thing).
She's a very slippery champion, but at least she has relatively nonexistent lane priority as long as you know how to face her.
Every kill she gets her CDs are lowered by 15seconds and every dagger she picks up she can basically dash 1 more time.
Yes, she has resets, otherwise she couldn't do what she's supposed to do, which is killing fools in an instant. She has insane mobility and damage, but no cc or shield or heal or anything.
Because without them shes a melee creep
her cd's are like 17 seconds but her dagger resets most of her cooldowns or something like that, also kills reset cd and stuff so it seems like she has super low cd's but really its just her kit reseting them. So technically ur kind of right.
Katarina is gated by mana, so she runs out of mana fast with low cool downs... wait
Katarina is gated by energy, so she has to use her spells properly... wait
Katarina has to stack fury/rage to be effective, so she has low cool downs... wait
But wait, isn't it Riot's own design philosophy that states champions with no resources are gated by long cool downs? I don't have any particular issues with Kata, just wanted to toss my 2 cents in.
