Anyone feel like finally seeing Ahri out of the meta?

She's always been good, and currently has one of the highest mid pick rates and win rates, she's very safe and easy to fall back on in every matchup. Can Riot finally nerf her slightly? She's been a great pick for so long and I'm honestly bored/done with seeing Ahri every few games.

She isn't just viable, she's absolutely amazing in every single way. Varus mid is viable, Kog mid is viable, Ahri is just on a whole other level. She's also been 'viable' for a LOT longer than any other midlaner.

Agreed. You have Lee Sin who is always viable and reliable. then you have, well a good example IS ap kogmaw mid. HE has good damage but so does everyone else, except that he can't go anywhere quickly and they can.

Mage/Assassin-Hybrid isnt a really good design for a champion. It often produces low-risk high-reward champions like Ahri Leblanc. They get a safe laning phase along with good snowballing potential, which makes it easy for them to carry a game. Mages just arent supposed to be mobile, the whole concept contradicts itself.

If i'm not mistaken off the top of my head I think Ahri's abilities have been changed the most out of any champion, she just isn't consistent. Charmed changed from doing extra damage, Q speeds up, etc etc.

What has been consistent is how she's always been very strong into borderline OP or just plain OP at times. Extremely high pick rate AND highest win rate of any midlaner IS NOT something that should be tolerated.

It's very hard to beat her unless your a mid laner with hard CC, Annie Cassiopeia Lissandra Malzahar or hard outrading abilities Diana Fizz Katarina . Plus it's skill level as well

Why is she so strong though her abilities tickle early but:

  1. almost impossible to catch her pre 3-4 without your CC ability
  2. She is a mage with built in sustain and extreme utility
  3. Triple gap closer/escape ult if ever in danger
  4. True dmg

They better not touch her till they nerf things like vayne. Ahri always goes from being bad/good or good/bad. Now her kiting just makes her incredibly safe. Maybe if they slightly lower Q missile speed and her movement speed boost.

No. The problem is they keep nerfing everyone else lol.

Um... they did nerf her passive. She still gets blown up by tanks and adcs and other burst mages.
