I couldn't help but laugh at rekkle's pentakill because of how evident the League of mobility is

He jumps across half the fucking map with resets.

Just stop it with all this mobility or bring in the cripple mechanic as soon as possible, please.

Okay that was freaking ridiculous. Why does Tristana's Rocket Jump reset on a champ kill again?

Because it has a high cooldown to limit its use in lane.

That really doesn't answer the question. Lots of things have high cooldowns. When we are talking about a late game hyper-carry, it just seems odd that they have given her the ability to chase an entire team down by stringing together some kills. No other ADC could've done anything like that.

The huge ass-cooldown and Tristana isnt supposed to build CDR.

Also, she is an old champion, where this kind of mobility was something unique and served to create Tristana's unique identity as a mobile ranged champion, in a game where point-n-click stun (And other oddities that served to keep Mobility a bit more in line) were far more common.

It is still silly, and to be honest, i expected them to change the ability when she got reworked (ie, removing the reset), but thats the general logic they followed. In the current game, all it does is serve for ''BIG PLAYZ!!!'' and take a shit on low mobility champions even harder, which just serves to piss everyone off since.

This video makes it quite clear that infinite resets, in the current metagame, only serves to make mobility far more overbearing than it needs to be, but unfortunately, Riot finds this kind of thing to be perfectly acceptable. A few changes to give legitimate counterplay to mobility is something this game could greatly benefit of, or at least stop removing things that could counter it (Point-n-click hard CC is slowy getting hit, as are Silences, for instance).

Because outdated mechanics. They really should just remove it.

He went from his inner tower to the entrance of the enemy base. That is WAY more than halfway. Completely ridiculous.

That is why I have been saying for months that champs with resets should get 1 reset and then it goes on CD for say 30 seconds.

That certainly should be the case with Tristana since she also has crazy range. Resets on immobile champs don't seem that problematic to me.
