Senna release PSA

So she's coming out on tomorrow on the 10th so just a few things to get across.

1.Don't first time her in f#@king Ranked. I mean we got this issue enough and I know people are gonna wanna try to play her but at least in get in a practice game or two.

2.Don't just pick Support so you can play her if you don't really play Support much. Yes, she is a Support Marksman but she is still gonna be mostly played in a supportive manner which means you should know how to support to begin with. I remember how when Pyke came out all these people were trying to play him when they didn't know support and tended to suck or dodge when they didn't get him.

3.Don't go after for f#@king day one nerfs and s#!t just because you didn't want to learn how to play against her which led to you getting the crappa kicked out of you. If you see her try to pick melee champions with untargeted gap closers since that's her main weakness.

Senna's kit is one of the friendliest to first timers. I wouldn't be too worried about it.
No. No she won't. 70% will play her ADC. The support players are more likely to botch build her. She'll do fine even if not using Q to the maximum. Even pros don't use her E much.
She's realistically going to get nerfed. But it needs to be in Mist drop rates or less use out of Lethality items. Nothing else.

She's an ADC

An ADC can play her as a Support, a Support cannot play her

The rationale being that the kinda mechanics typically found under each category don't translate too well, a really good Jhin for example, will be an excellent Senna, however a really good Soraka will be absolutely useless as Senna, the mechanics don't translate too well in that case. Something like Janna might work, when played at a higher level, she ends up being an exceptionally potent Support, and wouldn't translate too poorly into Jhin or Senna.

Really depends on your playstyle, she's a unique ADC, comparable to Jhin in that regard, with differing mechancis from the usual. Pyke was essentially a reworked Blitzcrank for all intents and purposes, Senna is less your typical ADC, more comparable to Jhin.

I'm playing her mid with lethality. Anyone else?

She looks OP as heck so use her until riot makes the money and dumps her in the support heap.

I'm banning her in ranked for the first 2-3 weeks.
