Just curious, how are you supposed to deal with Katarina if you have no reliable CC???
Katarina really ain't so bad early, but that's until she roams and gets herself a double, then comes back with a
and proceeds to one-shot people with little-to-no counterplay, plus free sustain that allows her to stay on the map for extended periods of time.
Her gunblade powerspike is disgusting. Not only does she scales with both AP and AD, but she gets free sustain plus the active's burst. Even Akali doesn't scale that well with gunblade.
If she ever gets a slight lead it's so easy for her to kill people, even without landing her daggers properly.
While i know that she's especially vulnerable to CC, what are you supposed to do when you have no reliable CC to stop her? Either because it is on cooldown, a skillshot, delayed or just a plain snare.
I don't ban Katarina because i barely ever see her, but when i do, it's just such a freaking cancerous experience that makes me want to stab puppies. Wheter i'm facing or or not, she just needs a kill or two to start rolling, it feels so easy to snowball on her.
