One year later....

And I still don't understand as to why the hell Riot had to add in a movement speed to Ahri's Q

The 20% amp damage on charm she used to have back then was insane as hell of a damage, I remembered how when I was level 3-4, a combo with E Q W would easily take down more than half of the opponents health.

The DFG removal is nothing but an excuse as to why she needs a buff, and the fact that she can just easily cast 3 of her abilities E W Q combo with DFG and any ADC, Assassins will get deleted easily. While her mana cost wasnt a big deal like it used to before they buffed it at patch 4.12.

And now I have rarely ever play her ever since she gotten those buffs, and anyone would just call me a scumbag simply because they think I main Ahri while she is in a broken spot(which I haven't played her for one whole year)

After multiple nerfs she gotten, her W, R, Q and Passive, has riot even think about how that movement speed they added to her Q was a mistake? And how she would still be viable like any other mages in the game after the DFG removal without needing a movement speed buff on her Q?

Yeah the Riot balance team is just ugh.. the older Ahri design where she didn't have her Q movement speed is in fact the type of Ahri that can be balanced, I find it to be way more healthier how she used to have 20% AMP damage on charm.

And as balance goes to a whole new level, whereever the hell its going for all other champs, day by day I have always thought about wanting to quit this game, and question myself why play something I don't enjoy? and complain about things in game all the time?

And Ahri still remains to be the highest winrate mid laner today.... And Riot still havent taken noticed.

so yeah, GJ (sarcasm) riot for making Ahri an overloaded champ simply from her unnecessary Q movement speed buff.

P.S. Sorry for my bad grammar

Sorry to break it to you, but if you are getting called out because someone thinks you are an asshole for playing what they consider a broken champion, then you are a pansy. It's your own fault for wanting to appease a demographic of sore losers that complain about balance issues. I got news for you. Everyone abuses broken champions and you are a liar if you believe otherwise.

In this meta now, do you REALLY believe that a movement speed mechanic that was added to her Q is far more unbalanced to deal with then the 20% damage amplification? Imagine if she still had that over the extra movement speed with the likes of the Thunderlord Decree. That would not be pretty.

Of course anyone that doesn't play Ahri is going to tell you that they don't like either and she should NOT have either or come up with cop out excuses of just wanting the champion gone from the game. In that case, why would you listen to what they have to say in the first place?

Why they did it? Because each champion needs its own individual strength. Ahri's is a mobility heavy APC. And having that small MS boost makes her less reliant on using her ultimate every time she wants to be relevant. If you're thinking the charm damage amp was a fine mechanic, it was not. 100-0 burst is firstly never a healthy thing. Secondly it loaded all of her play into landing charm, making her rather binary in her effectiveness.

And she's not broken, nor the highest winrate midlaner.
