latest champions released!!
guys ive been playing the last champions lately and i see a pattern forming and not a pleasant one.all of them are interesting ina different way and half their kit is actually fun enjoyable and thats what draws me to spent hours with them instead of the old boring annie and teemo and malph pics but ,and thats a deep hearted but,they all seem to suffer from extreme weaknesses.
most champions have strenghts and weaknesses and thats what counterplay dictates but the latest champions seem to have weaknesses that you cant overcome and once the enemy knows how to counter you its over without you being able to do anything.
for example illaoi is a very fun champion with great aoe and the potential to annihilate a whole team with her ult...and her downside? 0 stickiness, 0 cc,0 slows apart from e that cant be used as a slow because its cast time is greater than the impact of the slow(jesus).so why would you do that.why wont you nerf the dmg and help her with a stun or a reliable slow or something.
next is aurelion.apart from his ult and a big ass star that isnt even certain that will hit he has that great weakness of the w not hiting in melle range(and the star cant be enables to hit in melle aswell) so everything that has a gapcloser annihilates him.why?cant you put a 3rd cast on his w that does the same dmg and takes the same mana as the big range active to make it viable?
last one is the new gem kled.very fun i adore the gameplay and the character of kled but why is he ssoooooooooooooo useless without his bird?0 speed(which is ridiculous since you cant escape anyone ever,and chances are if you are low health you need to escape) 0 abilities apart from the w and a long cd backstep.so basically harrash him out of his bird and he has to go back to regain.you cant duel anyone with only the health of kled and anyone can kill you so the moment they throw you out of the bird you can only use your q fast to go near your tower and recall.
i dont say weaknesses shouldnt exist but why do they have to be so overwhelming and make fun champions so frustrating?is it only me that thinks this way?whats your opinions and if you disagree how to you play them to overcome their weak spots.
