Camille and Nerfs.

Just wondering how many of you have encountered camille on live servers yet and believe she needs a nerf. I just played against one as jayce and I noticed multiple things that make her over powered, in my opinion. This might come off as whining but this is my honest opinion. Please do not leave Jayce hate here, that is not the goal of this post. You can make a Jayce post explaining why he's too strong and Ill be more than happy to see it too.

  1. W. That slow is way too strong. Its like if nasus w healed him for 200 hp and slowed the enemy massively while also dealing tons of damage. Doesn't feel right. The range is nearly undodgable if you're a melee champion that doesnt have too much mobility. It is possible with jayce to hammer form E her away but its barely enough to get out of it.

  2. Mixed Damage The Q is easily one of the strongest damage dealing abillities in the game, Im sure we've all seen the Camille one-shot True Damage videos by now. A Max HP True Damage abillity is something a champion like her shouldnt have in her kit and feels extremely unfair as its not even a skillshot, its just an auto attack amplifier.

  3. Passive Shield The shield doesnt feel right either, its way too big, like a colossus shield on drugs. It also feels like it barely has any cooldown, but I havent read the actual stats on her abillities yet.

Things I like about her: I find her E and Ultimate cool, and think they're very interesting and new mechanics. The stun duration didnt feel too long to me, and the ultimate was annoying but not completely broken.

Hopefully you dont find this whiny or me complaining or anything, Im just truly interested if this is just a problem with my playstyle or is she a jayce counter or is she just too strong at the moment. Just imagining her with a full bruiser build in late game makes me scared.

Share your opinions below, very interested to hear them :)

UPDATE: I just bought her, going to try and play her for myself and see if she's really strong like she seemed. My opinion as for nerfs still stands.

The only thing I found a bit OP about her was the amount of true damage she can do on such a low CD. Maybe if they reduced it a little bit or make it not work with item 3078 because it does, then I'd be fine. Everything else about her I find pretty balanced and even with her strong true damage, there is counterplay to her...you just have to wait until she hits her Q on you and then stun her so the true damage part times out and her damage drops a lot.

Would I want her nerfed? Idk yet, she just came out and we need to wait a bit before we start suggesting any change ideas for her.

I find the most overpowered thing to be her lane sustain off of W. It just feels a bit overkill, maybe it's just me but I ran a bunch of 1v1s tonight and only a handful of champs could keep up with her in lane. Essentially if she gets to 3 with an hp lead you are forced to back or die. Fun champion, just needs a bit of tweaking.

There is actually no champion atm that can duel her. Her sustain in lane is ridiculous. Timing her E and Ultimate correctly and she can dodge 2+ skills.

A cool feature they can add to Camille would be a link between her Q and W. Using either skill will add an extra cooldown timer to the other skill. This will increase her skill cap and lower a bit the crazy all-in dueling power she has.
