I think without breaking him.
It telegraphs too much. There is too much mobility, anyone can dodge it.
Needs to occur faster. Reduce the damage slightly to compensate.
Old champs will be left behind with every kit and item full of absurd movements speed.
Tahminatrix 3 votesThat's why karthus is stronger in group fights...you cant play dance dance revolution and focus on dodging his q while getting chased by a mundo.
Dashes are a get out of jail free card in this instance but they rarely arnt..mobility in general is a problem not just karthus.
youthere1 votesKarthus Q has practically no cooldown, meanwhile mobility abilities tend to have some of the longer CDs... explain how mobility is the problem?
DarkinPrime1 votesI just explained in the post. I won't repeat myself. Its too easy to dodge.
youthere3 votesSimply stating "there's too much mobility" isn't actually explaining, it's stating an opinion.
Moreover Karthus has a wall that slows to make targets less mobile. They are meant to be used in tandem. You can also force enemies into a direction via aura or aa, and Q where they are likely to go.
I assume this is happening during the laning phase, as that's the time people are going to most often dodge Q. In which case instead of using it to try to hit the enemy, it's more effective to use it to deny them cs. Also, most champs don't have "absurd movement speed" during the laning phase.
