Katarina should be untargetable during her ult

TeemoXNidalee·Dec 3, 2015·2 votes·1,004 views

She is lackluster now with adcs and mage running rampant. Everything stops her ult, and while she channels for the 2.5 seconds the enemies just kill/stun her. She needs a way to channel her ult safely, so I propose that she becomes untargetable during it or after using her teleport.

I don't know how to post gifs, so just imagine Bender laughing at you, then realizing you were serious, and then laughing even harder

I would rather shoot myself in the foot then have katarina running around for a few patches.

The point of playing Katarina is to be a cleanup champion. If you are able to jump in and "become untargetable" you'll be the most broken champion in the game. By making her untargetable you might as well make zed have unhuman movement speed when he ults or have talon spam his shurikens in all directions when he ults.

The point of having her targetable is so someone can't jump into the mess and sit on top of a team spewing out tons of damage. If you're worried about dying as you go in, buy a zhonya and once you're about to die when ulting PRESS IT. Hopefully your team will have a brain and help you out.

Then they should make it so zhonya doesn't cancel the ult channel.

OK, now THIS I can actually get behind. If Fidds can do it why not Kat?

I dunno man maybe because Fiddlesticks ult does 225% AP over 5 whole seconds whereas Katarina does 250% AP over 2.5 seconds?

Fidds does it to a whole team while reducing their MR with passive and maybe item 3001 . Im not saying their perfectly equal but they're similar

Not a channeled spell... its an instant spell for a controlled ranged DoT.

That would be doing the same exact thing... its a channel... not passive spell.

Rumble's q only procs in Zhonyas because its an instant spell that has a small DoT in front of him. (The DoT applies for 1 second.... SPAGHETTI CODE CURSE YOU!)

The point of Katarina AGAIN is to be cleanup... you need to wait to go in until the almost end of the fight to make sure YOU burst out everyone and get extreme resets.

Sure, as long as they make Zhonya's not cancel Nunu Ult, Galio ult, or let Fid Zhonyas as he's channeling his blink so he's automatically invulnerable when he comes in.
