Corki is underpowered, he could really use this buff

Dr Poro··32 votes·1,630 views

When Corki has picked up his package, and uses his Special Delivery (W) onto the enemy Nexus turrets, both turrets should be destroyed instantly, along with all nearby champions, including himself of course.

Corki's probably left like this because he's so much harder as an adc to itemize against. There is Kog too, but..

Riot favoritism at it's finest. Corki (and Ezreal) are cancer, but Kog is completely balanced.

Ezreal's doing decently right now, and even receiving some buffs next patch. I think he's alright because he still does primarily physical damage, and without any consistent magic dmg, %hp tools, or armor pen built into his kit, it's pretty easy to tank an ADC Ezreal, I think he's one of the more susceptible ADCs to tanks.

ezreal is cancer his abuse of iceborn gauntlet is cancer shooting from long range aoe cc 40 mana cost and on hit effects... thats just his Q

That's what he pays for 30 AD total in his 2 core items.

why does nobody get triforce on him then?

It's more expensive and more selfish. It's only better to buy it if the enemy team requires aboslutely no control, has little AD or you are very ahead. From my Ezreal player experience.

New critless Trinity is better than Gauntlet. Build is like: Muramana TF Bork Mallet/steraks Boots (CDR or mercs) Maw/Mercurial scim/Last whisper

You get tons of HP, insane mobility due to TF speed buff being applied on Q hits, much stronger Qs (TF+steraks) and its extremely hard to assassinate you due to tankiness. What i like is you get TONS of attack speed from TF passive and BORK, so you are able to utilize BORK against tougher targets very well. It's slightly worse at kiting or dealing with ADCs, but otherwise its superior.

Also, never EVER use or level up W. Its only usable when pushing turrets, so you W allies to give them/yourself extra AS. Never use it for damage as its animation cancels your auto, deals little to no damage, costs tons of mana and its just weird. Extra damage and slightly less CD on E is superior to that ability.

I know all of it, I love to play Ezreal ^^

I just prefer Gauntlet as it is safer and gives more utility when dealing with kiteable tanks/bruisers. My build is exactly the same as that, but Gauntlet over TF (and obviously no mallet with gauntlet).

Ezreal main as well?

Verdade1 votes

Yep. I love playing him in solo lane as an assassin, but i don't mind going bot lane. And i love jumping with E onto peoples faces. E, Q, auto deals tons of damage, procs thunderlords and usually sends them running. If i have the right mood i pick stormraiders for more giggles

CeexSett1 votes

I use fervor for those extended trades in bot lane. No one expects that consistent damage. ^^

Kog has been broken as hell for the past few patches yet for some reason no one picks him so thankfully I don't have to ban him

Gear5Luffy1 votes

but when they pick him he vomits on everyone and does not say sorry

XeroKimo1 votes

That is to say that he was never at a fine position after the few changes of his update....

People are just too scared thinking that he has to be protected 24/7 when in reality you could probably get a triple kill by the time they reach you and die

You kind of summarized why corki sucks at the moment. He was supposed to be this magic damage adc, but atm kogmaw kinda does this job alot better.

TurquoiseYoshi1 votes

Actually, he's pretty easy to itemize against, if you choose the right defensive stat. He does about 77% magic damage to 21% physical damage, which can be compared to Kog's 45%/43% physical/magic split. For comparison, full AP Fizz does 80% magic damage and 15% physical damage.

So if you build MR, you're going to tank him pretty well. His main strength in itemization is enemies that don't know that his rework gave him so much more magic damage to build MR against.

Don't worry, worlds is almost here, so Corki will be getting buffs

corki shreds tanks

Nazaar1 votes

Other adcs can also do that. Just look at ashe. She can destroy tanks with her q and has more utillity than corki with her passive and ult. Compared to other adcs he is just not that strong in this meta.

corki shreds tanks

Not really...every other ADC can shred tanks way better...Corki is better at LETTING his team shred tanks faster because of his E

but honestly Corki's penetrations need to be split,50% of magic pen becomes armour pen and vive versa(does not stack with itself) one of the reasons corki's late game is so abysmal(apart from him not building like other AD's) is because no general penetration actually works with him at all,even item 3135 item 3035 because of the way he does damage

Funny how Armor Pen builds can easily out class Corki in the mid game

There should be a hidden passive.

If corki has a score of 9/10 he can fly into the mid lane turrets and they will obviously be destroyed. But the inhibitor will mysteriously combust as well. This will obviously kill the corki. (then in his dying breath, remember my score.)

Dont u mean 9/11?

That's the joke, after he dies in that way he becomes 9/11.
