My tip would be, either wait for her to be buffed or for Rito to revert some of the 6 nerfs they've made to her last season. Until then...

...What are you talking about? She's in a pretty good spot now, and has been for a long time. She's a Solo Q goddess with tons of safety, utility, and damage. She's got tons of mobility, true damage, probably the best pick-off tool in the game, low cooldowns, and in-lane sustain. What else could you ask for on a mid-laner?

no don't talk about the damage don't make me recollect of the old thread, and all the nerf she had been through after her rework and before the rework. he mana cost on each of her spell are freaking stupid, mobility? a movent speed excuse used to nerf her every other ability pft Riot a jk.

Her damage is quite high, so yes I will talk about the damage.

Her mana costs are pretty damn low compared to someone like Lux.

She has 3 dashes in her kit, with a low cooldown on her ultimate, as well as a pretty effective movement speed buff. So yes, she has amazing mobility considering she's classified as a mage.

her damage is ulmately garbage compare to the old ahri. Lux mana cost is only effect her at the 1st 5 minute into the game if you play lux you would know. ahri mana cost is not acceptable from the 1st minute to the end of the game. if you play ahri you bound to fine yourself manaless at almost all stage of the game.

ahri champ now you can get hit so what.... she cant kill you unless you took minion, tower and jungler damage etc.. ahri alone early for the first 10 minute her kit is LIMITED.

she dead that what riot want let her rest.

48983507DEL1Jan 31, 20165 votes

No, it's still pretty good damage.

Lux's mana issues last the entire game. Apparently you don't play her.

Ahri, on the other hand, doesn't have many mana issues at all, considering so many people manage just fine with her.

Her old kit was completely focused on hitting her Charm. The new one is more versatile. She still harasses very well. 3 Charm-combos and you can kill really easily.

my freaking word, will ahri mains STOP COMPAIRING her to old ahri, none of them even look up any actual numbers. the reason her ratios are different because she had amplification damage on her charm REMOVED and got a 15% ap ratio BUFF to compensate. I mean hell, her damage since RELEASE has been a hardcore buff, as of 5.2 where the damage was actually changed... to 50% ap ratio from 35% and a 0/5/10/15/20 damage respective BUFF 3.13 :Mana cost changed to a flat 85 from 50 / 65 / 80 / 95 / 110 Early game nerf but late game BUFF after 3 points 5 mana is so negligible it doesn't matter anymore.

Her w was initially buffed and then CHANGED BACK TO HER OLD RATIOS practically her 3.13 change to W was: Maximum damage to a single target reduced to 64 / 104 / 144 / 184 / 224 her 5.2 change Base damage increased to 50 / 80 / 110 / 140 / 170 GOOD LORD 14 whole damage for an ability you get at lvl 3, not like you people chose it over charm lvl 2 anyway... and for the 54 damage nerf late game.... summoner 14 on release Deals 50 damage plus 25 damage per level over 5 seconds SINCE RELEASE of the spell. there is your 50 damage you "lost"

HER q hasn't been TOUCHED damage wise since SHE WAS RELEASED!. Besides the 5% ap ratio they added BUFF#1, the only thing that has changed was they gave it true damage on recall of the orb** BUFF#2**, and that boost of MS for some reason BUFF#3... and mana changes up the ass 60-80, to 70-90, then 55-75, again back to 65-85. FFS 5 more mana FROM HER RELEASE for crap sake THAT IS SUCH A NERF item 3070

I'm sick of ahri mains saying ahri is shit when on paper compared to her old ratios and even rework set, she has been buffed, nerfed slightly and buffed back to almost identical ratios and costs with buffs added on to older abilitys, and she still sucks??? But the fact she has so much utility she never is useless if she falls behind.

HOW freaking low can these mains be...

HOW freaking low can these mains be...

first of all let me make this clear to you.... and shut your logic on whoever complain about ahri being sh*t now is An Ahri main.

well I AM NOT. unfortunately.

#NERF IS A NERF, NO MATTER HOW MUCH OR LESS IT IS.

we did look at the number and fact and see it as a nerf, you looked at it yourself and yet don't know the fact. I don't understands.

After the rework that she had her charm greatly nerf. +20% this is not a freaking flat damage IT A F*CKING PERCENTED. it increase the more damage she has, they removed it. they took always 44% of her damage, and buffs of 10% AP and under 100 base do not compensate.

they buffed her other ability, was just only an excuse to nerf her damage. #FUTHER MORE the buff damage were revert, the rework are nothing but a GREAT nerf. the garbage movement speed that every other champ are capable of is not a mobility. even WORST they even removed the D.F.G which make ahri incapable of doing anything without additional damage from the jungler etc...

Mana Cost increase, early game which needs the ability to be used was RESTRICTED.

The mindless fool who suggestion on every time you want to use an ability is to get a TEAR, while other champ who don't use mana at all can buy whatever the fck they feels like. ( sound like a good idea) [HUH?!!] fcking r*tard.

Ignite was means for everyone not just ahri alone, don't use that spell that anyone have to compensate her lack of damage.

BoulderoxFeb 3, 20161 votes

i don't know what your on but i feel you are seeing alot of stuff wrong that i mentioned

20% amp damage is a lot, but the only reason she was ever considered an assassin was that point. otherwise she at her core was a mage.
couldn't do jack either when dfg was removed, not like ahri needed 2 damage amps anyways let alone 1 to murder someone, a charm is enough as is...
when i meant i was playing on how people say her mana cost on her q is terrible while it is 5 mana from her release numbers, = meaning BOO FREAKING HOO. The fact you think i'm giving you build advice is laughable. And I'm the one being called mental...
I love how you say EVERY champ is capable of mobility while ahri is considered the "mobile mage" and has a 3 dash ultimate in any direction... but you know as a few that could EVER catch up to an ahri that ults away 3 times.... And that "garbage MS" you say on her q i presume is just enough so you can throw it out and position the pull back to hit the enemy (if you are skilled enough).
Example 3 ad nerf is nothing when the root of the problem isn't her damage. Same with ahri, 5 mana on q isn't anything early game and has no relevance mid-late game. so her q having a nerf of 5 mana extra per cast is so negligible that isn't really a nerf at all... previous nerfs are different but the fact is she is back to almost release cost +5. and has now lots more damage on it as well, and true damage for kicks...

Ignite was means for everyone not just ahri alone, don't use that spell that anyone have to compensate her lack of damage.

But that is JUST it, ahri doesn't have a LACK of damage, she just can't 100-0 enemies and that is the GREAT catastrophe that ahri mains can't come to terms with. She isn't an assassin, but people keep playing her as such, and then say she is too weak when she was buffed across the board on 5.2 patch, and made a true MAGE.

Ahri is a versitile mage, that can have relevence at any point of the game due to her kit, even if behind her charm can change fights, but god forbid she can't kill anything in one combo, shes garbage...

Pawn of heartsFeb 3, 20162 votes

in other word the old ahri is better, and have More potential. the remove her damage almost haft and buff only like 10% than remove that buff and increase her mana cost. a mobile is on ult.

I never said YOU ask every other mana champ to buy tear

but I used it to clarify the scenery, ( read it again) * "the mindless fool "who" suggest"

are you a fool?

if you admit that you are then I apologize

the double Amplified yes it is strong but since they also remove D.F.G should they revert the charm back.

No, of course you don't care because you don't play her... etc

kill everyone in one combo?

you can only do so when you fed...

so is Fizz, Lb, kat bran etc... every other mage are capable of 1 combo kill if they fed.

so why is ahri the only one who suffer?

the old ahri even thought you do a Es, and Qs you wont be able to finish of an opponent, you either go in with the spirit Rush (Rs) and Ws to finish off.

From the very beginning Vayne was build for late game unlike Ahri. Vayne; they gave off her earlier game and buff her late which is natural because the champ was suppose to be a late anyway. and the buff never touch since.

Ok... Pft [cough cough] Aoe stun, slow and just stun doesn't consider as a mobile OK.

mobile for an ult... while zed, yas, ken, Lucian, trist, lb, kat,jax I can name MORE if you want their mobile is be access at lv 1, and the cd compare to an ult Oh plz.

what do you have to say to that?

The nerf is over extended Period #.

BoulderoxFeb 3, 20161 votes

First off the first part is shaky and worded weird, hope i understand what you get about it almost halfing her output, if i am seeing that right and are compensating her ~10% with the buffs... When all her old charm did was amplify her magic damage by 20% when the buff for her E in 4.12 gave her 15% extra ap ratio on her E alone, and earlier 5% extra ap = 70% ap on both her Q passes

Ok reading over the statement of

The mindless fool who suggestion on every time you want to use an ability is to get a TEAR, while other champ who don't use mana at all can buy whatever the fck they feels like. ( sound like a good idea) [HUH?!!] fcking r*tard.

Your complaining on how manaless champs trump her.... when all mages face that trouble, not just ahri.

Also you act like ahri can't burst people when fed when you say:

so why is ahri the only one who suffer?

when you specifically said previosuly

you can only do so when you fed...

Now lets look at ahri from a stanpoint of a mage What does she has that many mages DO NOT HAVE? She is ONE of 2 mages that have access to true damage of any substantial damage. Velkoz being the only other mage that does true damage, if that even counts as it is a passive. and if you play the Zilean 1 true damage on q cast, Anivia 1 true damage on wall displacement than that is sad. She has access to a power almost no other mage has and with 45% cdr as 3.85 sec CD and 40% cdr is alone a 4.2 sec CD if people opt out of it, that is incredibly strong for an ability that can hit twice and deal true damage on top of it.

Moving on, to her w, an ability that the only thing you need to do is move closer to them, which leads into e and how detrimental it is as a skill. When Soraka lost hers because of how bad it is at low Cd's Vladimir , who is being reworked so honestly he is up for discrepincy. When her w can be @45% cdr 2.25 sec and @40 3 seconds FLAT. Which is nothing in terms of cooldowns and can be just as spammable as old sorakas Q alone was.

Now lets also look at her passive that gives her yet another thing MANY mages could only dream for, sustain... and using the charge complaint is void when q, e, and and hell ult can generate 3 charges each. While @ 50 ap on a 6 minion wave alone can get anywhere from: 22.5 @ 1 point to 112.5 hp recoverd and 50ap is such a low ap level for a 5 point q it only adds up. and remember that there is a cannon minion wave where you can hit one extra target and an enemy you can also hit leading to a possible of 18 * 8 = 164 + 4.5 (50ap) which is no recovery to sneeze at. And even though it can be called a useless heal, ANY sustain is more than half the mages in the mid lane that could only dream for a smidge of hp sustain?

Now the big one, her E the ability that trumps EVERY OTHER mage cc (non ult) due to how it works, not only does it make enemies incabable of hurting you, but they WALK TO YOU, and having a 20% damage amp is flat out overbearing for ONE ability. Trumping every other CC in the game for what it used to do, so yes removing a fraction of the usefulness of ahri from it, still supersedes many other cc's avalible in mages.

I find it ironic and at the same time showing when one person brings solid data and information, while another defends and attacks with only situational descriptions, and if anything has been shown throughout history, statistics and data show more than hypothetical situations to prove an argument.

And no i do not play ahri, because i don't like ahri as a champ, but that does not mean informative data and talks cannot be given because "I don't main them" And even if I don't play her, people can know exactly how a champ should play, and ahri is a sustained mobile mage.

I know she is a utility mage, and feel many ahri mage only see her/want her to be a carry mage, while she can carry as is and still have the tons of utility as a cherry on top.

Pawn of heartsFeb 3, 20162 votes

You went off topic.

making ahri the and vel the only true damage such and such... its doesn't matter so what if it true damage? True damage that scale so Low. you want it? 0.4% wow so much. [Pft] the cd stat don't mean any thing, because it doesn't come with the champ you have to purchase or put it on masteries etc....

the topic is about "Ahri" why rambling other champ into the conversation. if you want to talk about the over nerf and the bad champs we can, however this is not a matter of Other champs.

it is Ahri.

using other champ as a fact statement to back up on ahri case... well make so much sense. is it?

It a matter whenever she good now or worst than the previous Ahri, also whenever she can compete with the newly patch, or not.

In short; she doesn't

the mobile is on ult, and the dirt moment speed.. hmmmm still talking about the mobile? this logic already been taken care off.

moving on

Oh wait you want to talk about sustain(her Passive) If I recall correctly her passive........( you know where I'm going with this I don't have to tell you) [since you full aware of the "Data" I hope].

There are many mage which have alot of sustain. which that is not the case however, here are mage that have the sustain. The situation of sustain don't add up of making ahri playable, but one example is enough Swain " did you say something?" I don't have to bring anymore up because I don't want to tell you the obvious information that anyone know.

I don't need to back this up using number to make it look professional, because game play and experience tells it all, even the nerf stat (NUMBER) also tell it all. You are full aware that the old ahri is better, and the reason that not much player play ahri define all the logic that I been throwing at you, and that the over extent of the nerf.

Now you realized that Ahri incapable of 1 combo anyone as of now. unlike champ like Fizz kat Katarina Annie there are prenty more champs that have more potential than ahri.

again the REMOVED of her charm effect is simply to take her off the spotlight, and they did NOTHING what so ever to compensate it.

[pft] - the so call " Solid" data clearly shown the nerf and how bad she has become the -44% remove of her damage apparently you cant see.

I don't fully understand what so ever how is that you can only shift thing to your perspective when you clearly see the data yourself.

OPEN YOUR EYES.

there are no other word to explain the nerf.

The ahri NOW is not a good pick.

I ain't doing nothing wrong, cause I already stopped playing her with the first round of nerfs in 5.1. She hasn't been good since and yet still received even more nerfs despite struggling. She's a shadow of her former self. Not enough damage to be an assassin and her kit sure as hell doesn't work as a mage.

The only way she isn't useless is if you build straight bruiser, the way Froggen does and hope the enemy team focuses you while your teammates do damage.

And yet she's still 2nd in both winrate AND playrate. You are doing something wrong. She is still a very strong champion.

The Ahri circle-jerk is strong in this thread. Everyone keeps mentioning 'facts' and 'weakness' when she is consistently one of the top play-rates and win-rates, which says she is extremely strong.

Learn to play and stop thinking a champion is weak because they aren't blatantly OP and can't 100-0 someone instantly.

The further back you go, the better she was.

I honestly don't care about you. I'm referring to any Ahri player that thinks she's weak.

You not playing her and you ONLY stating that you don't play her anymore makes that statement pretty irrelevant to what I'm talking about, doesn't it?

This is exactly what you said. If you think she's not good, you have something wrong with you. She consistently maintains one of the highest winrates in the game. I'm sure that's because she's 'not good'. If she's a shadow of her former self, then good. It means she was blatantly OP back in the day. And at several points she was.

And please, tell me how she doesn't work as a mage, considering that's how she's had a 53% winrate for over a year.

What you want her to be is what's 'bad.' Nobody liked it when she was like that.

I always start 2x item 1056 . After that you usually want a item 3165 , however against bursty opponents you should build item 3001 or item 3191 first. You can also pick up a item 3285 or item 3116 and you finish out with item 3089 and item 3135 .

Well, if you can hit her skillshots well, then she's really effective.

Her basic combo is E -> W -> Q while walking backwards.

You can use your Ultimate either to dash in and hit your Charm, dash away from skillshots, dash away from people jumping in on you, or for a few of these in quick succession.

In lane, make sure you use your Q whenever your Passive is up to sustain. Try to hit the enemy through minions.

You should probably build Morello, Ludens, Sorc Shoes, Deathcap, Zhonya's, and Void Staff.

No. the remove of +20% additional damage on her charm make it that ahri has no combo. the charm make it so your obrs can hit easily because it slow and deal more damage so you would like to use your charm at the right moment, however since the orbs travel faster now which is easily to hit you don't need her charm. right now Ahri is nothing but a regular charm which have no sense of unique.

48983507DEL1Jan 31, 20164 votes

...No, she still has the same combo, it's just not as much of a punishment for missing Charm. It's still a very unique ability, causing a champion to literally walk away from their team and towards you, all while being unable to do anything and being slowed. How is that not unique and powerful?

the old ahri when you play against her you really have to watch out of her charm which excited whenever you vs her or you play her. and she will manage to pick kill of early game with the help of ignite when used properly.

Now you either wait for a gank for additional damage or wait til you pop 6 and be able to do something, unlike champ that is capable to do so much early.

in case you don't know the game length is shorter now, this early game effect really hard into the game.

Uh no, you can still harass pretty easily. They got rid of the bonus damage for hitting her Charm, but they ADDED damage to the rest of her abilities. Hitting her Charm still means you hit every ability in her kit, but now because she gets a speedboost, there's even less room for retaliation against her. She traded damage for safety.

no that is what they did right after they rework her. to compensate her charm TREMEDOUSLY nerf. they buff her every other ability. shortly after the next 4 PATCH after she had been continually nerfed the buffed damage been REMOVED. the mana cost goes sky high.

Quick tip outside of the build and such, because that's easy. Learn to Q or E and flash before the ability casts for an instant extra range orb/charm. Works wonders in low elo for certain. Second, be sure to roam, especially when you hit 6 and pick up some kills/assists, your roam potential is high.

As to the people downvoting anyone who tries to give you advice other than "don't play her": Yes, you're right, her damage is weak and all she has for it is some extra safety attached to her Q that no Ahri player asked for. Yes, a good Ahri being determined by whether or not they could hit charm was great, and she was an extremely fun and balanced assassin and just isn't as fun as a Mage who doesn't seem to know if she's made for kiting or assassinating. Still, I like playing Ahri even if it isn't as much as before, and this guy is asking for advice on how to play a champ, regardless of that champ's balance state.
