she looks like vayne but with counterplay in mind

Kai'Sa seems like she'll be interesting, but my problem with her lies in that Riot has basically stopped trying to deny that marksmen are the new assassins so they made a marksman that's an assassin.

I want to see her in actual games before I judge. She looks strong and very fun, but we'll need to wait until we have actual info on her.

It's called the Zoe effect. People are scared of another Zoe

For me, Zoe decreased the quality of the game. It's just super unfun to play against her.

She hasn't even reached the PBE and the REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE has already started.

Remember when Kled was shown the first time? The Boards went nuts.

Akali Evelynn Shaco Twitch Vayne are unfun to play against regardless if they are meta or not. I wonder what they have in common

She has no mobility pre-6 so i guess she'll be weak early? Plus her Q aggros to minions and i guess W is blocked by them too? She'll probably have a weakk ass early game.

Also she's like a mix of Kha'Zix and Vayne. She'll be way more effective vs isolated targets and picks, but will probably suck at teamfights.

Anyone else has Quinn vibes from her? They reworked Quinn's ult because it forced her to engage close quarters, and Kai'Sa's ult is basically a better version of Quinn's old ult. (Instantaneous, can tp anywhere at range around the target, plus provides a shield)

Camille got the ult that Fiora wish she had, now it's Kai'sa getting the ult Quinn wish she had.

Compared to the abortion of decent champion design of Zoe this looks ridiculously mild in comparison.

Her invisibility isn't even an ultimate, that's my main issue. Everything else is fine but once she presses E, that's going to be hard for people to fight her especially if she's fed. I get that Riot wants to give us exciting, top-notch action like champions to keep us interested but I believe they're overdoing it at this point.

What's wrong with giving us champions that aren't overloaded or simple? I think they nailed it with Reworked Warwick (not counting the fact he's a little too strong right now in this current patch)

She has abilities? That's kinda concerning.

WrÆth2/20/2018, 9:56:32 PM4 votes

Oh god, is this the next "unpopular opinion" type thing?

Who the fuck said that she was broken, what.

Venomar2/20/2018, 11:29:24 PM4 votes

She's gonna have some balance issues. You don't actually play this game with a conscious mind if you can't see that.

If she's balanced around her passive ability unlocks and thier utility she'll either be useless until that time and spike too hard or not enough, be good until that time and spike into OP, or be mediocre until that time and remain mediocre (which completely negates the design of having the gating in the first place, so I doubt this is a plausible scenario). If her isolated Q does anything more than ok damage and they keep it that way she will end up having to have her passive and or E gutted because that's for sure where her DPS is gonna come from and her Q will provide too much burst when "evolved". If they go the other route and keep her passive and E hott and nerf her Q, well, now we just have a new Kog'maw-esq steroid right click Mongo. Her pick potential is gonna be busted with her E and being able to ult off of allies CC. Her only saving grace is that she can get herself killed pretty easily by being stupid, but riot doesn't balance around stupid.

I don't know how she's tuned right now, but she will have some serious balance issues moving forward based on her kit alone, and that's not a huge leap to say that.

okay bois, we have a new champion! this one has 50 dashes! what do you mean overly mobile again? well guess what this ones actually really unique! not only does she has 50 dashes she also has invisibility and can dash across the map!

nice riot, really did something new and exciting here.

Troll for Trump2/20/2018, 8:13:17 PM2 votes

Where?

Every post complaining about her on front page is about her art or people complaining about others supposedly saying that her kit is OP.

There's no support for that claim.

ZaneShadow2/20/2018, 10:54:44 PM2 votes

Hahaha, yup. The moment she is released I expect the slew of anger that declares her broken. I mean look at her kit,

  1. invisibility with attack speed.
  2. If she Isolates you she can dump huge damage with her Q
  3. Long range skill shot that hits like a truck if you have enough AP.
  4. An inescapable dash.

She has 4 tilting abilities (only if she stacks a stat against you though). I think she can be balanced and enjoyable, my only true worry is that one of her three play styles will be to weak, and need buffs.

P.S. if you hate divers, use a champion with a stun or knock up.
