Janna's Q

Blumpkin Nation··1 votes·451 views

Is there any chance that Riot will buff this ability? Buffs I'd be looking for are (not all at once):

  1. Lowered mana cost: i.e. lower cost, same scaling. Or lower scaling.
  2. Increasing the base damage.
  3. Increasing the charged damage
  4. Increasing the charged ratio.

Again, not all of these at once. But I feel like her Q certainly costs a lot of mana especially when you have to burn 150 mana for a quick knock-up versus a 150 for a charged one.

She is one of the best Supports in the game right now. No need for buffs. Just don't spam the ability and you will be fine.

I never said I had mana problems, but I still think it costs a lot for a skill you'll rarely used for the extended range and knock-up. I mean, the cost could be lowered by 30 at max rank at least. 150 is pretty steep regardless.

Janna was never meant to do damage, you know that right? She's meant to peel enemies so that her teammates can do the damage for her. Another thing, her mana costs are just fine right now. In lane, you really shouldn't be spamming your abilities, especially not your q, and late game you'll have enough mana to survive that mana cost.

It's not that I WANT her to do damage, but I want to feel like I shouldn't have to rely on a fully-charged Q to deal minimal damage. Yes. It's used to peel. But at 150 mana at max rank for a quick .75 knock up? That's a lot of mana. I don't think changing the mana cost would be too much to ask.

Or the scaling damage for those who DO want to build a little more damage. Going support? Utility Janna > Mage Janna. Want to play anti siege Janna in the mid lane? Go AP, clear the waves and defend your turret and amass the AP for some interesting differences in her playstyle.

I'm just saying; she's super binary in her role because she doesn't have the ability to be different.
