Kai'sa every game

Literally every game I see Kai'sa. If you ban it, people take Ezreal. Both picks are superior to other adc's. Kaisa has been a meta for 1.5 years. Ezreal is just stupidly safe with his spammable flash. Iceborn synergy makes him even more safer. There is just no counterplay to kaisa/ezreal.

Do something about it. This game is turning into league of 20 champions.

kai'sa is selling too many skins sir. you will have to settle down on this one or we'll have to call the authorities to reprimand your whistle blowing antics, lest it affects the money.

That statement hit me hard, because it is the truth.

How has league of legends become so stale?? Because this isn't exclusive to Kaisa, but there are many others (Aatrox, Akali, Sejuani, Tham etc). The meta is "different shades of damage meta" since the lethality rework, and is honestly getting boring, even more than it is frustrating... Pure tanks are strong only when they deal a lot of damage, and unviable elsewhere; soaking damage is not a part of the game anymore, since years.

I understand that Ezreal has very high damage, but honestly should he not given that the only point and click thing about him is his auto attack? I'm not trolling or trying to piss people off asking this, but his entire kit is skill shots. Is it even a little possible that people are simply GOOD with him and that he's not actually overtuned?

I've seen this sentiment echo'd constantly on the boards; "Champions with such high damage abilities should at least be skill shots, not targeted" While simple champions like Garen and Yi exist which are blatantly point and click. You press a couple buttons then go in. You press them again when they are up.

Ezreal at least, AT LEAST, and again not saying this troll, has a skill cap in order to do maximum damage, as well as an exploitable early game using long range poke or strong cc. He has to position correctly, he is item locked with item 3070 in order to always have access to his abilities, and they've nerfed his AP scaling so he HAS to hit multiple abilities just to chunk you early to mid game. Is the burden not on his opponent to shut him down and end the game accordingly?

I understand the item 3025 rage as well, but you take a hit to your damage in favor of safety and utility. I ALWAYS get item 3078 over it because I prefer the damage and mobility over having to land Q's to slow, plus Lethality mitigates it pretty quick.

Am I really wrong here?

Yeah, I mean what can you do? Riot won't nerf them because they look cool and make "plays." Talk about a fucking stupid reason, but that's why.

I think Ezreal is pretty average but Kai'Sa is definitely overtuned

Kaisa has been overpowered since her release and nothing is being done about it. They just dump more and more skins on her.

The key point about Kaisa is you can't build armor to mitigate a lot of her damage. I'd personally like to see her passive and W become physical damage and see how things change.

Yeah if we could just have a couple months where everyone who plays Yasuo, Ezreal, and Lee Sin every game would fuck off I'd be so happy. Multiple years of having these safe high tier picks really makes the game feel too samey.

I wish Kog and Kalista would be picked at least one out of every 30 games, but naw

Minimac20009/3/2019, 8:59:01 PM5 votes

Kaisas numbers have been overtuned since release, her q and w just do way to much damage for an adc thats supposed to be reliant on popping her vayne stacks

Ezreal is performing very poorly rn statwise his damage has been nerfed pretty hard recently. Everyone still just picks him because him and tristana have get out of jail free cards on 6s cds and it sux getting oneshot by everyone and everyone knows it

Rito plz fix this oneshot frenzy gamestate

I play Kai'sa a lot because I like her kit, I think her q and ult are very satisfying but seriously she is so god damn broken. Every game I play with this champ ends with me getting 8 or more kills and 2 or fewer deaths and I just picked her up, she's supposed to be high skill cap

Both have low ban rates and sub-50% win rates. Kaisa has a huge play rate and her winrate is like 49%, so among her mains she probably has a pretty high win rate, I'll give you that, but Ezreal has like a 47% win rate or lower, really not that great.

i would say 3rd is cait and then maybe xayah

People just copy what pros play. Champs like Jinx and Ashe are superior in soloQ in terms of winrate but they make less flashy plays and have a lower skill ceiling (mechanical, much higher positional skill required) so the average wannabe pro doesn't play them.

Ok but can we please for the love of god stop asking for nerfs? Strong champσ are merely pointers to the poor way in which riot is handling their more obsolete champs. Ezreal's playstyle is always going to make him good. You either nerf his numbers to the point he is trash and depressing to play, or you remove his strong mechanics and turn him into every other worse ADC. Just find new ways for worse champs to compete with the better ones and tweak their power budget accordingly.
