I love how people whined about assassins but they had to at least land abilities to kill someone whereas it only takes a right click to die from an adc. All adc's have to do is dodge a part of someones burst and right click them but people say this class takes skill lmao.

Its quite fun playing an assassin against tristana and she kills me before I can use a full combo or that combo is used but doesn't kill her.

They're nothing more tilting than get OSed by an unkillable machine.

A step in the right direction tho. Change happens slowly.

I'm pretty sure twitch is actually classed as a secondary assassin, as for the others they don't have the mobility to get in burst someone and escape like an assassin can. I'm not saying they aren't bullshit though, they definetly have some pretty dumb aspects to them.

Game is revolving around ADCs recently and now.

I'm so confused why people are complaining about twitch's stealth. He could do this waay before the invisibility rework when he wasn't "broken".

Every one of those champions in the OP is immobile. All assassins are mobile. There is not a single assassin in the game (except Evelyn but she's about to get a giant overhaul) that does not have mobility.

Immobile champions getting something nice is good for the game. It fights against mobility creep.

They were. There was 0 counterplay to any assassin if you were a squishy for nearly every one of us.

Annie's stupidly short-ranged, and you can stay away from. Or, if you're melee, you're probably a tank or an assassin. In which case, you either can easily survive her stun, or you have a spell shield to survive.

Draven, while obnoxious as fuck, is beaten by any tank support.

Twitch, your jungler just has to gank bot enough that Twitch is left in the dust.

Cho'gath is the only busted one here...

Eh at least 3 of them have to build damage to one shot you. Cho Gath does it while building entirely tank and still being able to peel as a frontliner for his team.

Annie also typically has to commit flash to one shot; with proper positioning and defensive items she has plenty of counter play. Draven's a bit overtuned but his range is really low compared to most of the other adcs and you have to be pretty good to play him mechanically when he's not overtuned like he is rn.

Then there's Twitch who can mow down you're entire team from a mile away....uh yeah. Nice champ rito.

but i guess ap cho'gath is still pretty broken, i.e. he has 6 ult stack (840 health), total 2774 (no health items) so his ult at max level w 500 ap does 650+250+277.4=1177.4 ~ damage. It's true damage, so can't be blocked or anything. Let's say you're playing ADC, like Cait let's say. You have 1884.4 health at 18, if you get hit by Cho'Gath's Q, that's 800 damage (300+500) or 726.5 (accounting for MR) thats you down to 1157.9 health and then he ult and you disappear!
