I seriously do not understand why AP Kai'sa is allowed to do the things she's doing.

900 health shield, 5000 unit dash, lock on isolation one shot ability, 1000 damage passive because I'm playing a bruiser, invisibility, insane fucking healing, etc.

Like it what realm of possibilities is this "fun" to play against? She's a one man team every single time I play against her. Nerf her AP ratio's in her passive and Q, she's also got too much fucking mobility and has the potential of 1v2ing in lane because of how much shit she's got going for her in her kit.

Normally, I don't bitch and complain about a champion being overloaded, but this has just gone on for WAY to long, any streamer I've ever watched since her release has bitched about her, so why are you not taking action? Because she hasn't made it to the front page of Reddit? That's not logical.

Now of course, any champion would do this if they were 32/6, but it just seems that she does so much damage early game, that she just snowballs out of control. She has no weak point in stages of the game, it's just "I do fuck tons of damage regardless of how many items I have".

To me, Kai'sa is the definition of "power creep". I'm not even trying to be irrational here, but it's legit every time I have one in my game, being on my team or the other, she just solo wins the game because of how much she has going for her.

Difference with Varus is that he is gated by cooldowns. His abilities can miss, he also has no mobility, stealth or shields he is easier to pin down.

She's allowed to do it because she has to get there after a shit lane and a bunch of expensive items.

Kai'sa is a better version of Vayne. If you let her get to the point where she can hard carry, you played the game wrong.

Something something AP scaling on her passive is bullshit and shouldn´t even be there in the first place.

That is also applicable to Varus.

AP Kai'Sa is a bit stupid, passive damage can do more damage some champs basic abilities without building AP.

She needs to dive into fights to be useful. Any comp with cc destroys her and its not even funny.

I disagree with you on her mobility. Her main source of mobility is in her Ultimate, which requires a condition : she has to mark you. ( or if a teammate hits an opponent I believe they are marked )

Yes, her dash is long, but it's shorter than her Evolved W. Which means that if a Kai'Sa marked you and you're too far, she can't ult you.

Her E grants her movement speed and Stealth when Evolved, but it doesn't make her that mobile. I can tell you that a Kai'Sa who's being chased won't save herself with only her E, even when she already Evolved it. ( the stealth isn't even a second long )

Yes, AP Kai'Sa is disgusting ( -ly fun ), but she gets pushed around so much in the laning phase. She is like Vayne in that aspect. If you don't put her behind, she's gonna outscale you faster than you would like.

Played a bunch of Zoe Support with my premade going Lux APC and let me tell you : Kai'Sa gets destroyed. Each time we face a Kai'Sa with this duo, we stomp them hard. The CC is just too much and the burst is ridiculous.

Basically, if she's hit by any CC, she's dead, or barely alive.

If Kai'Sa gets locked down in the laning phase, she's screwed. Same thing late game but she has her Evolved E if she wants to escape ( or try to dodge/drop aggro ) and her Ult can be used defensively if necessary.

Although, if you stomp a Kai'Sa, she'll be pretty much a flower pot. No threat at all.
