Riot needs to revert karthus q nerf if they're going to hard nerf his ult

He has a 52% wr 7% pick rate and 5% ban rate and 0 influence in pro play after his initial q nerf.

A ton of his power is in his ult and they are basically nerfing the damage by 20%.

He can't do anything before hitting 6. He loses 1 v 1 duels early, has 0 mobility and can easily get caught out, and can't really gank anywhere near as efficiently as meta junglers. In pro games you are already seeing multiple ganks at level 3 and he is too slow to be relevant which why he saw 0 play in MSI.

All karthus does is punish the enemy jungler if they do nothing.

This ult nerf is too much and should either be reduced to only a 25 damage nerf, or his q nerf reverted.

Nah, it’s fine. His r is an undodgeable point and click and it shouldn’t be nuking for 75% or squishes hp.

He has no prescense in pro-play b/c pro-play has become an early midgame skirmish/teamfight shtfest and karthus comes online too slowly to impact the game. Did you even watch MSI?

Karthus wants to farm farm farm, and the current Fiesta meta of constant fighting is far more favorable to champs that want to fight fight fight.

This game is turning into a team-deathmatch arena and a f*cking joke LOL

Adc can buyitem 3156,item 3231 ,item 3046 oritem 3091

All of which will help negate his ult and are just fine for an adc.
