Late game? she has one of the best late games in the game. why the fuck can she 100-0 people at level 2 YOU CAN'T EVEN GANK HER and not get dpsed to fucking hell

when I play jax. hes absoltely one of the shittiest champion in lane. but he has a godly late game. what would happen if Jax had a godly early game. oh wait. path 4.11 happened and they nerfed his base stats pretty hard.

Nobody can lane against Cassiopeia and not get bullied under tower. what is this?

why did you create an another azir? azir is absolute garbage right now because hes way overnerfed meanwhile u have this piece of shit cassio that is the old azir. or even ryze basically. how the hell do you do damage with jsut a tear and a catalyst?

Do you ever get tired of posting threads like this? I'm going to take a guess before looking at your match history that you recently lost a game where cass was on the enemy team.

Edit: op.gg shows a game played about an hour ago where a cass did well. Shocker. she's nowhere near the level of pre-nerf azir. I understand you use the boards as your way to vent, but instead try to take a breather, go outside and get some air, go for a walk. Then come back and see if you still want to make threads like this after you've calmed down.

i dont make a thread about vi because i lost to vi. she has equal strengths or weaknesses.

i make a thread when i see a pattern where a champion does or has things that don't make any sense.

a late game hypercarry shouldn't be a lane bully. imagine if vayne had the early power of lucian. that would be fun right

Not knowing or understanding a champion's weaknesses doesn't mean they don't have any. Try her out for a few games if you can.

no no no. i didnt say she doesn't have weakness. but she doesn't have the right weaknesses. a late game hypercarry should be weak in lane. not bully people under tower.

she's not that much of a lane bully if you actually know how to play against her. If she can't poison her lane opponent (dodge her Q, it has a decent amount of delay), she can't do damage. She's so incredibly squishy and immobile early that she'll basically be dead before she can cast another Q. basically, dodge her poisons and punish her for missing. She's not a safe laner at all.

also her mana costs early game are incredibly high and she goes oom pretty quickly. and she has no burst. like at all. Long sustained trades are what you want to avoid.

Honestly I figured out Cass a long time ago.

Build MR and YOU become the bully. She has to rush 2 important items in Tear(Seraph), Rylais.

She gets no spell pen in her build and with boots taken away from her lost her some fighting power.

Rush MR as anyone that can get in on her and she is rocked.

ITT: Gameplay's Cass circlejerk acts like she isn't one of the three best midlaners in the game right now.

riot has a terrible track record with AP DPS, ridiculous lane bullies with some of the best late games in the game

Anything that's DPS is going to have fair late game regardless. (when you look at ADC's, Lucian will still have great late game damage, even when he builds the early game armor pen build)

To that end, AP DPS is likely going to be on the same end of damage as the ADC. So where and how is this becoming a problem? well a) they don't have the same level of tower taking, simply because their AP, So they have to be balanced exclusively around their ability to melt champs. and b) there's very little itemization designed to counterbuild said DPS. (and riot isn't just going to dump a ton of MR on us)
