Too soon?

But seriously, this 'chick' is gonna be perma banned for life. And I hate you Riot, you guys think you're so punny with your *"Get Rek'd" *and "Saichological Warfare"

What in the world makes you think she'll be permabanned? A team with good map awareness effectively shuts down her ult, since she'll have no tunnels to go to.

She looks fun to play as, and not impossible to shutdown. If anything, I'd be worried she'll be like Vel'Koz.

She's highly skill/gameplay based and fills a unique playstyle. I expect her to be like Yasuo - the Bronzies won't be all that good with her, but once you get to high level she'll be making #LCSBigPlays and S5 junglers lives a living hell.

To me, it seems more like a catch 22.

Bronze - No wards, more tunnels, more places to ult. Less precise control over the champion in general.

LCS - Wards all over the place, fewer tunnels, fewer ults. More precise control will likely result in more true-damage bites and more use of tremor sense.

It'll be interesting to see how she pans out over the next month or so.
