Qiyana needs to be looked at

ChefTD··2 votes·1,884 views

Played 3 rounds of Qiyana today. Riot quotes her as being an "Assassin" but until she gets buffs shes actually going to play like a minion. Problems with the kit:

  1. Her Q deals no damage. At all.
  2. The water empowered W is only consistently accessible during the laning phase and near river objectives, but nowhere else. It's also a really short root.

These two issues have already shown themselves, along with the overall issue of Qiyana not doing anywhere near the assassin quota of damage brought to the table by Talon Zed or even Khazix. Its hard to call her an AD assasin when she can't even duel an isolated enemy adc who has an equal gold amount.

P.S. Also, ever notice that Riot has basically recycled the character design from other champs? This champ is so unoriginal in appearance, it looks like riot art team just drew a lux with a bladed hula hoop.

ya fr literally no one cares about this champ, she has a 35 percent winrate on OPGG (maybe not the best sign, but still) and a few of my friends were shocked to see her on live servers. TFT is overhyped

I've only seen her jungle but it seems like she isnt going to break through to the meta. She is an assassin that relies on mobility to engage, I dont see her being better at it than blue kayn. Only selling point is her ult in a teamfight, it could be break for punishing a baron attempt but most teamfights happen in lane.

the problem that I see is that she can get in but she cant assasinate a single squishy as easily as her counterparts, like blue kayn. I was thinking more about her as a laner, but jungle would propose a similar situation

Why did you build black clever on her? Wouldn't ghost blade work better for her?

In one game. The other one would've been against a liss, and you made BC too.
