Katarina has the highest winrate in the game

When your worst champion design has the highest winrate, you know balance considerations are a pretense, and design philosophies are made up on the spot.

He left out that all of his team followed his demise. Imagine a manaless LB with resets and you will come close to what Katarina is.

"Worst champion design" is very debatable.

Feathermane1 votes

It's very straigntforward. Katarina is the worst, then Rengar. Katarina is a manaless aoe burst champion with resets (a mechanic that can't be balanced even theoretically), with animations that camouflage her abilities (low readability) and a single decision point. In terms of design, you can't do worse no matter how hard you try.

It's because most of the time, many bronze/silver/gold players do not understand Katarina's mechanic. Also focusing on priorities they not seem to have.
