If you DO nerf Ahri

Ionian Vulpix··8 votes·2,049 views

I don't even think she needs it, but don't touch her damage or her Charm Damage amplification. Her damage is low enough as is already and she wasn't even complained about when she got the amplification back.

Nerf her Charm duration at early levels if you have to nerf her at all.

She does need real nerfs.

She has 1 match up where she has a negative win rate.

But how often is Zilean played outside of the Support role?

Ahri main creates a thread about how Ahri is balanced in his opinion, that's really uncommon here.

Ahri deserve real nerfs for her safety, sweetie.

Safety ? Kassadin Fizz Leblanc Zed and even Azir is more safe than her in bot lane we got Ezreal in Top lane we got Camille Riven Tryndamere and Fiora if played well and Malphite , his case is like Ahri , uses his Ultimate " his engage and most important ability in the kit " to run if needed and Vladimir W makes him safe a lot too with the HP sustain he gets from Q

How to balance Ahri in 10 seconds

Charm Mana cost: 70 => 80 Charm Duration: 1.4 / 1.55 / 1.7 / 1.85 / 2 => 1.2 / 1.4 / 1.6 / 1.8 / 2

Partial revert of the 8.14 change but still a net buff over 8.13

No need to go messing with her ultimate, base damages or ratios on spells when the charm changes are what broke her.

completely revert her CC duration but NOT the mana buff,her base mana pool is too low and 1 E Q W would leave her at <20% mana before this buff,also give her W +10% scaling as compensation

ok before you start to make rain downvotes i want to remind that before her E buff she were between 48% and 49% WR with a low playrate,for a low skillcap safe champ it's really low,considering she's almost balanced as she is now (she's on the edge for being nerfed) a little buff on her scalings won't hurt her at all (and with a complete revert of her E CC buff she'd need it)

also the logic of "if 1 sec was too weak but 1.4 too strong so 1.2 is balanced" doesn't work,this buff allowed her to do things that before she couldn't do (AA 2 times while her target is charmed,having her second Q hitting her target even if casted in a melee range,being able to run away without having them countertrading you and so on),1.2 sec isn't enough for doing those things so it's almost like having 1 sec,that's why i think the best thing is either keep it or doing a complete revert

Still doesn't excuse a 53-54% win rate.

https://champion.gg/champion/Ahri/Middle?

52.84% wr,6.74% pick rate,0.78% bann rate

http://na.op.gg/champion/ahri/statistics/mid

52.67% wr 12% pick rate

that's only korea but let's be honest,if you collect the data from X players around the word or X players from a specific region you still have the same accuracy,koreans play the same game as we do (the only difference is that the average player may be better)

the only that says 54% is lolalytics but since it helps to circlejerk it's the right one doesn't it?

i mean,those sites are really inaccurate (i mean even the ones i used) and their data should't be taken that literally especially when win rate alone it's not enough for saying a champion is balanced or not

again not saying that ahri isn't strong atm,but boards are really exaggerating about her...especially when nobody said a word when she was literally trash tier for almost 1 year (after her R/W nerfs and before her mini rework),now she's good or a few patches and everyone goes crazy

Ever since Champion.gg started listing things like Leblanc and Xin Zhao as supports they have lost any credibility in my eyes.

Lolalytics is the best.

Ahri Mains try to discredit Lolalytics because it actually shows their champ is broken.

Infernape1 votes

Some of them will tell you she's weak even if she had a 60% win rate.

Hell I can remember a lot of people saying she's weak last year when her win rate hit 56% in all elos.

Ahri does need toning down regardless of what her mains say. She is statistically too strong.

Edit: Gotta love being downvoted by Ahri mains.

The whole point of a NERF is to power down the champion, not shift power.

wildfox991 votes

10% scaling on her W is really far from being as strong as +40% CC duration on a lvl 1 ability,it's still a nerf but since removing this buff would put her in a bad place (she would get nerfed too hard) you give her a little buff as compensation,you still nerfed her but without gutting her kit

QmegaSquadVeigar5 votes

Lower the charm duration at all ranks, not just early.

DoktorKaiser3 votes

OK leave her damage, remove 2 of her ultimate dashes. You can't be the most mobile and to do most damage. That is some next level of bullshit.

AHScoven6 votes

Sweety, there are about 10 more champions that have way more mobility and damage than ahri. Please shut the hell up.

DoktorKaiser2 votes

And they can fuck right off too.

saltran1 votes

Does those champs have 54% winrate while also having literally the biggest midlane pickrate in the game.

Just wondering.

wildfox991 votes

the only site that give this number is lolalytics,others like champion.gg says 52.8% with 6.7% pick rate

that's why we don't have to take too seriously win rates,win rate alone don't make a champion balanced (it's only one of the factors) especially when the sources are that inaccurate (so not reliable)

not saying she's weak,she's pretty strong but not nerf worthy

Noor Sakata3 votes

a Single nerf to her outside of reverting her latest buff will gut her I mean , sure , just revert that buff , Riot said they will buff mags in one of the threads here , so they buffed Ahri and forgot about the rest
