Why is Maokais e stronger than Teemos traps?
It really doesn't make sense. We have a tank that's basic ability gets to be better than abothers ultimate ability. Teemos traps can be killed and maokais can't. Maokais also deal %max hp damage, possible to 16% with NO AP. Maokais also are able to move on themselves and have a shorter cooldown. The ability itself also has a longer cast range than teems ult and slows them more until teemo reaches level 2. It really doesn't make sense why an ultimate ability does so much worse than a basic ability and can do less damage than a tank's abilities. Maokais saplings also cost less mana. The only benifit that teemo has is that his traps last longer but that's kind of overwriten with a charge system and maokais low cooldown. IDK maybe just me but I just think it's ridiculous how innefficent it feels when a basic ability can do better than your ultimate.
