Nah

In mid lane, she/he will get stomped by dmg. She wont get bursted because of her ult but she will always be too low to stay in lane

We don't know what damage type it is (AFAIK) as the reveal doesn't specify, it could be % max health physical damage for all we know.

it didn't say if she had true damage.

I think they are a logical mid lane choice with the AOE and kiting, good roam and sustain - this is a champ I actually see being viable in any lane as they have kite / sustain.

If they're AP they could actually be the first champ to legitimately be able to be played in any role, even as a support (KindredxKalista lane, dear god).

I can understand support because itemization, but how would being AP allow them to be in every lane?

Plenty of AD champions go mid, and plenty of AP champions go top.

It is actually because of itemization for support.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooh.

They can play every role but support, but AP ratios would change that. I feel so damn stupid right now.

I agree, in the right comp.

I think they would be a more powerful Top Lane personally. Excellent sustain with good zoning and mobility to keep away the bruisers. Her E also gives a nice slow for stopping the likes of Garen and Darius.
