Singlehandedly won every teamfight by pressrue glp and none of our entire team can move/reposition/dodge skillshots. Don't understand

She picked a CC keystone instead of a damage one? I'm not sure what's hard to understand. Glacial Augment hasn't even been changed. Electrocute was just so freaking good that there was no reason to take anything else, but now that it's been nerfed people are actually trying the other keystones.

In order to take Glacial Augment, Ahri has to not only give up all the damage she would have gotten from a damage-oriented keystone, but also can't take nearly as many damage-oriented runes. No Inspiration rune gives damage directly, and she has to take three out of five from that pool.

Buy Merc Treads or Swifties, and abuse the fact that her all-ins aren't nearly as potent. She's an assassin. If you let her live through the midfight, then her keystone wasn't the problem. She was either very ahead, or nobody decided to click on her.

Well she still was able to kill me in one combo, and I couldn't dodge the charm when you are slowed by an auto or item.

Won't this apply to anyone using this build? I understand Ahri was the one you played against but I'm pretty sure the results would've been very similar with other users of this build.

I think Ahri is one of the worst, because so much of her damage relies on one slow skillshot. It has around a 54% win rate currently.
