Don't listen to these idiots complaining about the Kai'sa nerf

SORRY we're nerfing the only faceroll adc you guys are able to play.

Honestly of all ADC's, SIVIR could use a revert - she was the only viable pick into Kaisa/Cait/Ashe and that was why she was reigning in top tier status for ADC's.

I've only seen complaints that it's not ENOUGH of a nerf. Reducing the attack speed stim in the late game will do virtually nothing to Kai'Sa. By that point, she only really cares about the mobility it offers, and she'll have plenty of attack speed from her items.

That's what they really need to hit with Kai'Sa - her mobility. She's too safe of a pick for how hard she can carry a game. She can run away from bad fights and ganks as early as level 2, and engage on her enemies when they overstep to get fed really easily.

They should heavily reduce the movement speed she gets from her E at early ranks, and have the scaling portion of it ramp up with rank. She wouldn't get an engage/disengage early on, she'd get a short channel on her attack speed stim that slowly evolves into a pseudo-dash.

I mean, a good nerf would be just removing Phantom Hit from Rageblade (and have it never return on an item) or make it so that passives like Kai's and Vayne's W are unaffected by Phantom Hit. That would finally allow us to gage the actual strength of the users instead of it making it impossible to gage such strengths (therefore it becomes a core regardless if it were to get nerfed into the ground or not).

my only complaint with the kai'sa nerfs is that it doesn't affect her power level at all. but people are gonna @ me claiming it does when it's her last maxxed ability that's being nerfed and by the time the nerf is in play it's covered up by her choice of atk speed items. so whatever, at least ekko is getting buffed and everyone thinks him having a 2 second stun is ok. well ya'll gonna have to live with that idea for a while and get to grips with just how "ok" it is.

Well, Ekko's W has a fairly long CD (especially since he maxes it last) and this skill is well telegraphed and delayed. So yeah, I think buffing the stun from it might be ok.

dude I have 1.5mil ekko mastery. you don't touch his W for balance under any circumstance, and rito have, it was a buff, he's broken when that patch lands.

Jinx destroys Kai'Sa regardless of if the Jinx is good or bad... because she's overtuned.

A decent Ashe player can beat Kai'Sa.

A decent Vayne player can beat Kai'Sa.

A decent Caitlyn player can beat Kai'Sa.

A decent Xayah player can beat Kai'Sa.

A decent Tristana player can beat Kai'Sa.

Draven destroys Kai'Sa.

Twitch destroys Kai'Sa AND OUTSCALES HER.

My favourite lane to pick vs a Kai'Sa is Ashe Leona.

Leona lands her stuff and Kai'Sa dies every time.

I go Lethal Tempo Ashe not this virgin Arcane Comet bullshit.

Arcane Comet is for when I want to oppress a Draven player.

You're right! We shouldn't listen to all the idiots complaining the nerf is not enough.
