Can we talk about Neeko?

What are your thoughts on the so called "Curious Chameleon?" Seems to me as if she's meant to be played in the jungle, most likely specializing in counter ganks. What's your favorite part of her kit that you've seen so far? Is it the fact that she can basically use the Tricksters Glass (RIP Black Market Brawlers)? I know that I'm definitely going to try and pick her up after her release.

I'm honestly nervous it's just another champion in a line of 'unfun' champions that they recently released. I don't think anyone thinks LB passive or Shaco Clones bring much for meaningful decisions beyond "Just guess / coin flip" which isn't usually fun imo.

My favority part in the video was the 3 Herarims running in the river. So scary to thing to see coming at you

I feel like people are gonna get the wrong idea about her Mimic. Its basically Tricksters Glass (I even guessed it would function as such a day or two before the teaser came out). You copy everything but their abilities, and when an auto or spell is cast, you return to your normal self. I'm glad a fun item like that evolved into a champion's ability since it was too op as an item IMO.

To be honest, I'm hoping she ends up more on the Utility spectrum like Ivern instead of something bursty like Zoe. If she's less feast or famine, I won't mind adding her to my roster.

I've been waiting for a champ/ability that lets you appear as another champ. Maybe I'm just being optimistic, but I don't think it will be as bad as people are thinking.

I'm guessing it is her passive and even if it's not, it looks like she has to be near an ally champ to turn into them (See part in video where she turns into Warwick just by walking past him). That means during the laning phase, when everyone is keeping to their own lanes, she's not really going to have a passive/ability. Mid-late game she will be much more effective, but that will also depend on the coordination of her teammates.

All in all I think she will still be less annoying than Zoe

Like most control mages..... she's going to be able to play at least 4 roles: Top, Jungle, Mid, and Support. Most control mages can do this right now.

Seems like a Jungler/Mid for me.

She looks super fun, to me. I am interested to see if I can make her work as a support. :)

Profirix11/19/2018, 8:09:20 PM2 votes

She looks a lot more like a roaming support. I have a hard time thinking that with the skills they revealed she would be able to clear the jungle.

3 HIT PASSIVE AGAIN THEY JUST CANT STOP WITH THIS OBSESSION FOR F*CKS SAKE

I worry shes going to be frustrating to play against but she looks cute and enjoyable to play. She also just looks like a better LB

I'm curious to what the limits are to her copying ability. It has to be her ult die to how powerful it is. Will we be able to use the abilities of other champs? For how long can we hold our form? Are we revealed the second we receive damage? And we haven't taken good look on her own kit yet. It looks like she has Ez new w but that roots and a "splitting in half" ablity but what's her damaging ability? Will she be have the same kit theme as Zoe (basic ability being her only damage output)?

Edit: Just got a few answers to the questions i had.

She looses her form when casting a damaging ability or receiving any ind of damage aka poke her to reveal.
