If Katarina is allowed to have that much damage on her ult, it should have a longer channel time. It's no wonder she does so well. You don't have enough time to CC her. By the time you get your ults off, she's already killed someone on your team or severely weakened them. Please make the channel time longer so we actually have time to CC her.
AyRe CoNteMpT1 voteswhat they should do is let her damage ramp up over one second or so and increase her total damage on the ult. this way, there is more counterplay to it and a higher reward if she manages to channel it fully.

How about no. Her ult already has one of the highest base damages in the game. It doesn't need to be higher.
Kãtãrinã1 votesHer ult has the same scale as Nunu ulti. She just has 375% BONUS AD scaling and 250% AP scaling. (fully channeled) it is actually only 37.5%AD and 25%AP scaling per dagger for 10 daggers
AyRe CoNteMpT1 votesproblem isnt that kata has too much damage but that it is relatively long range and instant, meaning uncounterable. her ultimate has at least some uncounterable damage as it also deals instant damage upon activation. i think it would be good for balance if canceling her ult really fast makes it deal much much much less damage but not canceling it lets her deal more damage.
Kãtãrinã1 votesher ult already has counterplay. it can be stopped instantly. If you can't react as fast as she does it then you don't deserve to stop her ulti. if you are within critical range, don't be there and recall. She is capitalizing on YOUR MISTAKE. that is like saying "make zeds deathmark timer shorter so we can CC him before he does damage to us" LOL #CounterPlay.Yeah that is just stupid.
MohawkBird2 votesInstantly no. Within maybe half a second yes. Problem is that all she needs is that half a second + her QWE combo and shes already done her job.
Kãtãrinã1 voteswithin that half second she only throws 2 daggers. so 2 daggers at 25%AP scaling and 37.5% BONUS AD scaling and at level 1 35/level 2 55 and level 3 75 base damage per dagger killed you? Yeah you must have been really low to die instantly to two knives buddy. if you die within the HALF SECOND of her ult channel. then you literally need to not have been in that fight cause anyone would kill you. You'd have to be at critical HP or shed have to be super fed.

No it can't be stopped instantly. Most of the CC in this game isn't instant. Meanwhile Katarina gets all of her damage off in just a few seconds.
Kãtãrinã1 votestakes a full channel to do max damage. you can stop her before she does a lot of damage with it.

And a full channel takes almost no time to complete. Her entire kit is point and click. And the one skill that isn't has possibly the shortest channel time in the game.
Kãtãrinã1 votes
2.5 seconds
suppresses them for 1.8 seconds (can be stopped)
1.5 second channel
Galio channels for 2 seconds
3 seconds
channeling up to 3 seconds (Has same AP scaling redcues Attack speed AND slows you Also has higher BASE DAMAGE)
I'm sure there is more but it seems to me out of the examples only jannas is longer, and hers is a heal.
Durzaka1 votesNothing is more depressing than reacting as fast as humanly (and latency) possible to CC a Kat ult only to see her still chunk your entire team with a partial ult.
The Bearded Bard1 votesIt's a two and a half second channel time. Same as Vel'koz's. At max rank Kat's daggers do 75 +25% ap + 37.5% ad (which she very barely uses most of the time). Vel'koz's ult does 90 + .06 ap, but also applies his passive for a healthy chunk of 205 true damage, 410 if Vel'koz managed to hit any of his abilities before or after the ult.
