How i think they've created kalista's kit

lMisteryl··27 votes·2,184 views

On the champion creation meeting at riot HQ.

item 3165 Morello: We've changed lucian and now the community thinks he is too mobile. What should we do to fix that?

Darius CertainlyT: Make a even more mobile ADC. The game would have one mobile marksman for each team.

item 3165 Morello: Sounds fair enough.

Nautilus Ghostcrawler: But what if they ban one and first pick t...

item 3165 Morello: Shut up! We already have a winner. We gonna make a champion with unimaginable mobility to take lucian away from the spotlight.

item 3165 Morello: CertainlyT, i'll put you in charge for creating the most mobile champion we have ever seen. Please, make me proud.

Day's later...

Darius CertainlyT: I Had this idea to put her mobility as hers passive and the cooldown scaling with AS. Her Q would be a damage ability as always and her E a potentially AOE slow. what do you think morello?

item 3165 Morello: She will be too mobile. This wouldn't break the game balance?

Darius CertainlyT: Vi can lock her down.

item 3165 Morello: oh, that's true. I'll take your idea to the development team.

As long as kalista starts dealing the least amount of damage from any adc then I don't care how mobile she is. The issue right now is I feel like she does far too much damage for how mobile she is.Kalista

Ok, now I'm kind of perplexed, who do you think she beats out? There are exactly two ADCs she can outdps. Ashe, who is not known for her damage. And Caitlyn, who is not known for her scaling.

her q and e do a buttload of damage. then on top of that, if she has her bound ally present and they auto you in that comfortably long 1.5 sec period, you lose a very large % of your max hp.

But she still does less damage than twitch, lucian, trist, and vayne that's not even mentioning Draaaaven

I Main Swain1 votes

yes but they have a whole ton more counterplay than her, especially draven and vayne. as a draven player, I can attest to the fact that he is the most difficult adc to play.

She is like Vayne, early game is shit but huge mid game spike. Vayne beats her in lane and scales better though.

To be fair, there isn't a ranged carry that out-scales Vayne. The true damage proc on Silver Bolts will always be the best steroid in the game, IMHO because not only does it scale with the enemy stacking health, but it's also completely unmitigated by armor or magic resistance.

Will you please generalize to "moblie adcs" ???

Ashe and Varus were always fair man. Since forever.

I honestly don't even know how her passive ties into her lore or feel at all. I understand that she can pull spears from you like in lore, that she can summon wisps of the fallen seeking revenge, and using her soul linked partner. But endlessly jumping around? Dafuq? How about some cool marking system, like every time she is hit by an opponent her next attack does more damage. Or some sort of improved marking system like Quinn has. That would tie in with her whole vengeance seeking thing more IMO

She actually does have a marking system. It's activated when Kalista and her soul-bound attack the same target.

Aspynn1 votes

I thought about that, but I feel like it could've been a better sort of system... I don't really have an idea how but eh. IMO it shouldn't have to have anything to do with your support, I think she should be able to mark targets and use that on her own. But I guess if that was the case she would be used in other lanes and would be even more op and a real pain in the ass for some top and mid lane match ups

This is actually a very good point. None of the 3 lore pieces we have so far told us that she was agile and how she is so agile. It's possible that it's multiple souls in one body that make her so agile, but why stronger when jumping backwards? They want vengeance, it would make more sense to jump farther when jumping in front.

I laughed. Thanks. I agree completely.

Don't forget her Q triggers her passive,said passive can wall hop so no jungle fights period AND her ultimate pulls an ally to her and makes them invulnerable/pacified.
