Xayah needs a nerf. Here's why:
Xayah definitely has a unique, and interesting kit. She seems like a lot of fun to play! I think she's in a good spot- and the reliability of her kit is on point. My problem with Xayah is she casts abilities like she uses Energy.
Seriously- she gets to just spam cast everything she has without any Mana penalty. Xayah gets to just throw feathers all game like it's a regular attack. Laning against an opponent like Xayah, you would hope the charade of ability spamming will be short lived when she runs out of mana.. but that just doesn't happen!
When I look at other Ability-heavy ADCs like Ezreal or Varus, they have to play smart and conserve their mana until they get that Manamune. But Xayah has no need for Tear and that makes ME tear. QQ.
I don't think Xayah should change, her kit was nicely done and blends very well. She's extremely versatile, and there's a good degree of counter-play. However, I think it's a little much that she is able to spam cast without mana penalty.
I can't be the only one frustrated by this niche. I mean, what's the point of using Mana if there's no real mana cost/penalty to using abilities?
Let me know what you think.
is the core item on every build. What this item does, is that it grants a base 10% CDR that scales with critical strike chance up to a cap of 30% so off of one item she's gaining 30% CDR (well not one item, she needs 2 other crit items) And every critical strike restores 3% of her maximum mana pool. So not only is she gaining CDR which lowers the cooldowns of her abilities; she's also gaining mana for every crit she lands. So if you want to talk about Xayah, don't talk about Mana and Abilities. She only has a 50% win rate and is picked 14% of the time.
