Will Miss Fortune Be Looked At?

Miss Fortune

(For all of the people who can't read. Post-rework means AFTER the rework)

MissFortune currently is at a poor state of balance with the rework leaving her in the worst shape she's been in. Nearly all of Miss Fortune's statistics as a champion have slowly fallen leaving Miss Fortune as one of the worst solo queue ADCs as well as seeing her become irrelevant in pro-play. **The rework was successful as making Miss Fortune the "wombo combo" ADC, though this is all she does. **Meaning she's only a strong champion when she has a premade team composition to support her ultimate, which is nearly impossible in solo queue and not always viable in pro-play, and even when she has a team to support her she's only ever strong during teamfights and is always relying on the rest of her team.

The rework overall failed to balance Miss Fortune out and was more-so just a colossal buff towards her ultimate, while being a colossal nerf to the rest of her kit. Basically Miss Fortune is balanced around her ultimate; with a fairly small hitbox and 3 second channel, Miss Fortune heavily relies on her team to set up for her ultimate. Without a good team composition to support Miss Fortune's ultimate, she's mostly irrelevant from the game, most specifically due to her having the lowest base Attack Damage in the game and no other major form of damage.


COMPARING MISS FORTUNE'S HIGH ELO PERFORMANCE IN SOLO QUEUE: https://i.gyazo.com/ec2889e0eec86230a67e287db318a671.png

Pre-rework Miss Fortune currently performed at a significantly higher standard, with the current Miss Fortune only having one very minor edge over the pre-rework version. One could argue that Miss Fortune's performance is negatively effected by Dynamic Queue being used to replace Solo Queue, however this is not true as Miss Fortune does better in premade teams than she does in solo queue teams. Meaning that her statistics as a champion are even lower than they are if we currently had a solo queue system.


HOW TO FIX MISS FORTUNE

Miss Fortune needs power taken away from her ultimate and put into her auto attacks. A "wombo combo" champion like Miss Fortune simply just doesn't work. It means that if Miss Fortune does happen to have a team that can setup for her ultimate, she instantly wins teamfights while leaving no room for the enemy team to retaliate, while at the same time Miss Fortune can't be strong at anything else. Whether it's dueling, farming, utility, etc, Miss Fortune isn't able to be strong in any of these categories as her ultimate consumes all of the power Miss Fortune is able to have. Having too much power would make Miss Fortune an overpowered champion. **Miss Fortune's ultimate consumes so much power that Miss Fortune as an ATTACK DAMAGE Carry, has the lowest Attack Damage in the game. ** Simply put, Miss Fortune's ultimate is a major issue in balancing with it consuming almost the entirety of the available power able to be given to Miss Fortune before she's considered overpowered. A "wombo combo" champion like Miss Fortune can't consistently exist as a viable and balanced champion simply because "wombo combos" are small windows of opportunity that rarely happen and are next to impossible to setup in solo queue.

Miss Fortune needs her ULTIMATE DAMAGE NERFED however her BASE ATTACK DAMAGE BUFFED. This would weaken Miss Fortune's teamfighting, but allow her to be viably played outside of an R bot and also allow her to be much more easily balanced out should she need to be.

A 50.7 winrate is a lot healthier than 52.3. While she is not really relevant in pro play, and needs a decent amount of setup to get a good ult off, I still think her new kit ia pretty unique and fun.

They nerfed her a we bit much with the E nerf. Dat's it.

Should've been more around 40 base damage.

i think miss fortune is perfectly fine right now. You'll have more success if you skill E>W>Q since Q does nothing for you except meme lane crits that you might not even get since its dependent on your opponent positioning badly. Maxed out E and W mid game gives you more ult damage and easier kiting.

Unfortunately, no. I agree with_ every single one_ of your Miss Fortune posts I see sometimes on the boards. It just won't happen.

If you shove the facts and your opinions about her up peoples asses, no matter how you do it, they just won't even care to listen. I have already gave up on trying to persuade people to change her to even the slightest.

I don't play ranked or anything but you can always add me on league if you would like to discuss Miss Fortune more and/or play some games, because I really feel like we are the only few people with the same overall logic of her current state of balance. Really wish she wasn't an R bot. I will go as far to say she could probably still be efficient in a wombo comp with her ultimate alone, (no passive, Q, W, or E), with just how much power it has from the rest of her kit.

If only there was a way to go back to before she was reworked... I just want to play her old self one more time. For old time's sake.
