Riot still doesn't know how valuable mobility is.

are some current big offenders

has been less popular lately but still is ridiculous

is disgustingly difficult to catch and reduces many champions viability against her to extremely low levels

and get to have mobility, damage, and (near) invincibility all in one ability

These champions can dodge and weave far more easily than so many other champions while still dealing ludicrous damage. If you have that much defensive/offensive mobility then you need to have lower raw damage and tankiness than the competition.

Discuss.

Kassadin isn't less popular. Kassadin is bad. Really, horribly bad. He's a melee AP assassin whose damage is so low that he needs 3 items to do anything, including wave clear. Even his mains can't get a 51% winrate on him.

Also, Kalista is only difficult to catch if you're a pre-6 Sion or Heimerdinger. For most of the game, her jumps are literally slower than walking.

Wish they would just make kass AD+physical damage, he'd be better with black cleave/manamune/youmuu etc. than his current build.

Oh they do, they simply haven't found a way to make immobile champions have the same impact without making them overpowered. Look at a Lux.

Well they designed high mobility champs that can also 100-0 you.. so what's left for an immobile burst champ to do?

they really can't just put a lot of power onto immobile champs otherwise your teamfighting will be just walking into the enemy team, that is if your a tank or killing them from a million miles away or just one shotting everyone but your immobile so either you would have to get close to one shot them or your more op then anyone else in the game.

That's exactly my point.

I think they know, they just intentionally make every mobile champ OP since they make LCSBIGPLAYS and they don't care about balance as much as that. Really though, it could be fixed if they just doubled the cooldown of every mobility ability or something like that.
