Kalista is my favourite adc, but now she is just too weak.(If @Riot wants to call it "balance" ) -_-#

In the past few patches, she seems just fine in lane, but not usefull at all in team fights.

She only does 0.9 AD damage per auto attack, and at the same time she does not have a long auto attack range... Some of my friends said that "Kalista maybe can get rid of Malphite's passive in team fights before she dies. lol" I honestly don't get why @Riot gives champions like Kalista and Vayne such a short auto attack range, when they need to do damage by auto attacks.(At least Vayne is getting buffed... What about Kalista)

I hope we can get a buff on Kalista, either on her skill damage or her passive and auto attack range and damage...(If we can do both, that will be awesome.)

I agree that kalista is in some need of buffs, BUT there is a reason why vayne and kalista have such small auto attack range. Image laning against a kalista who has the same auto attack range as you and kalista pokes you and jumps back. Giving you zero chance to attack back. That would be unfair. ALSO The main reason why kalista's and vayne's auto attack ranges are low is because there needs to be some means of counterplay. When you fight a vayne you need to keep your distance. Vayne only has a "bubble" she can auto attack with, if you stay out of that bubble she is nothing. Take Varus for example. His ult counters hers and his range counters hers. Same goes for kalista.

Summing this up, there needs to be some means of counterplay. If you die as kalista when you only dealt malphites passive sheild in damage. Thats because its all about positioning as kalista. I strongly believe that the first rule of playing ADC is "STAY ALIVE" and the second is "DEAL DAMAGE" If you back off every time they engage, they really can't catch you. in team fights you should wait for the enemy tank to charge. Then you auto him and dance like the good kalista you are. And then get him killed. Next will be the others. Just stay in the back and stay alive

This post of mine directly addresses this and provides an answer that emphasises her playstyle: Crits leave two spears. Couple that buff with the buggy crit animations being slow reducing attack speed and making hops stupidly slow.

She needs a kit over haul not a straight buff. Her kit design can literally invaildate certain picks. Especially with the lack of ranged targeted cc in game atm. Between Hop and her ult she could flag out dominate some games in the past. Riot has intentionally nerfed her down and has said as much somewhere (don't ask me wjere because I didn't copy paste the exact spot and these forums are massive). They will do something with her when they finally figure out what that something is and she becomes fair to play against with certain champs.

Also don't make biased polls like that. It is just annoying and rude.

Sadly though, Kalista will likely never recieve a buff again. She will sit stale for the next 1 to 2 seasons like yorick probably longer since her kit is actually usable without falling asleep until the eventual rework comes around for her in the distant future
