Show some love for Charm

Charmed by Ahri·Jul 18, 2015·2 votes·577 views

Hi! Ahri main here, just had an unfathomable proposal to buffing Ahri. Now bear with me I know what you're thinking... why buff Ahri? Mainly for roleplay reasons. I only request that her current charm scaling ratio increases from 50% -->70%. Keep in mind Charm is a single target skillshot that CC's for 2 seconds when maxed. This kind of buff would outscale her W and better allow Ahri to be more of single target Mage/burster without losing scaling AP damage if you chose to put a few points into E(or max it second) over W. I personally would be as ecstatic as a kid in a candy store if this buff came through in the near future.

Ahri does not need buffs.

Frankly, the AP item changes buffed all mages, making the ones at the top of the pack (including Ahri) looking like they need nerfs. I've been able to dominate games with her in a way I haven't since before Luden's was nerfed. She doesn't even need to win her lane to have repulsive midgame power right now, because of the movespeed she's getting off Luden's without dropping any damage.

afaik, only mages who built stuff like item 3070 item 3027 item 3151 were buffed, since luden's and zhonya's were nerfed

woah woah woah. Ahri is already in a precarious position of balance, this isnt going to do anything but make her ridiculous.

This is why listening to "mains" is usually a bad idea.

I would have to agree that she is quite "balanced" after 3 seasons of constant nerfs, mind you. But the community cries over her W damage if anything, so why not make it the single target skillshot. It's in season 5 we're finally seeing pros/gamers actually put points into charm, opposed to say S2-3 where that was more rare than a flying pig. I would like to ask the general population did you ERP? Because now we're seeing Epic charm plays and truly skillful gameplay from Ahri more than ever. Why not ride the momentum into where Ahri becomes of that calibur? I just can't get over the fact after several seasons since Ahri's release, her E still does far less damage than that of her w... But nevertheless i am enthralled to see Ahri's all together putting points into charm if not maxing it outright, because all this time it could've been Ahri landing her e for burst, opposed to her W-R-Q rushes and failed skillshots. #Esports

Didn't you see how much attention she grabbed in the LCS?

overall? She literally fly's in and out of the LCS at alarming rates. Before you blink she's back in competitive play then another moment later she's not seen for weeks. As with any top tier picks.
