Everytime she becomes meta she utterly destroys everything. In top jungle and mid. She's usually quite infuriating to play against and stupidly strong (especially with that non existent cd on her ult) then she always just vanishes from play. I don't recall her getting any significant nerfs or indirect nerfs (through items or something like that)
PurpleHatter2 votesKayle is my favorite soloque pick for a couple reasons:
1: I have aetherwing kayle and those wing animations sexy af 2: I play top and I really like splitpushers like Jax and Tryndamere. Only problem is both of them(Tryndamere in particular) have shit teamfighting. Not Kayle! With Kayle's combo of W healing, invincibility with ulti and extremely high RANGED dps she can teamfight quite well AND melt turrets with her combination of AP and attackspeed. 3: While she can definitely have a bad lane vs assassins and champs like Riven and Irelia, she can also have a really oppressive lane vs juggernauts and tanks do to her extreme kitting ability with her Q and W(and E autos obviously) 4: Scales fantastically. Really good scaling is something that I really enjoy in champions as I hate feeling pressured to end the game as quick as possible with a lot of lane bullies that fall off hard.
Thats my two cents as a 76K, Gold II Kayle main.
BestJhinUniverse2 votesThe game is better off without her.
MysterQ1 votesOther champs suddenly become meta, idk. She is pretty immobile, but I was hoping they would pick her in worlds. Maybe she isn't too good, but she is a hypercarry too :(
doubleguac1 votesI feel like Kayle is usually pretty strong. I honestly think the reason she doesn't get played more in solo queue is because she's incredibly boring.
PePsiLemoNN1 votesThat's how stat check champs work. Should be kept garbage till rework.
Infernape1 votesKayle is incredibly item dependant. If her item combination is weak, she is. If it's strong, she's strong.
BobaFlautist1 votesShe takes too long to scale up and can't trade without pushing, making her vulnerable to being camped and kept out of the game. Most recently she was probably stronger because everyone was playing around bot, leaving her free to farm up and scale.
She hasn't been able to actually clear the jungle in a long time - that was ok when the meta was slower and people were trying to farm up devourer, but it turns out a fragile, item-dependant ranged dps jungler isn't good enough when early-game tanks and assassins are the jungle meta - see Kindred.
