Kassadin's ban rate was even higher when he was at his peak.
This, and it was a pretty long-lived peak at that.
Its funny because her kit is extremely damn similar to Amumu's.
Every Sej player should learn Amumu, and vice versa.
Completely agree with you. The only advantage Sej has is the slows.
Honestly you all are completely wrong here. She's nothing like Amumu. Yes she has cc. But theirs one huge huge difference. We are in the tank meta so everyone has tons of hp right. Guess what Sej does? Percentage damage. So she does insane damaged compared to Amumu especially late into a game. Ever notice how she can just 1v1 other tanks? Shes easily 10x better then Amumu will ever be.
Amumu also does percent damage with his w.
Go compare how much each do then say this again
has practically the same win rate as her.
People are just LCS sheeps.

Amumu's W is also % damage and its a AOE DOT rather than being a single target one attack % damage at the start of his W like Sejuani's is. Amumu can 1v5 a team if he has enough health and AP.
They would need to learn something? Press Q to initiate, W for AoE, E for bursty damage, and R to AoE stun. There's of course differences since you can Q over a wall without hitting anything as Sej and Mu's Q range is longer, etc., but still. Same basic concept.
Also sej's ult is a skillshot.
Hence why I said 'etc', meaning Etcetera.
its that sej has a better early game then amumu is why
Sej has 2 things that Amumu doesn't: escapes, and HP scaling damage. Amumu has no escapes except Qing to a monster, which means the risk of counterjungling him is way lower, and he has to choose between damage and tankiness.

a friend of mine mains amumu, now he tries to get sej and switches back to amumu if banned. Her kit is slightly better still.
You obviously don't remember the time when we had two champions with more than a 90% ban rate.
If I remember correctly it was back in Season 3 when Kassadin was still broken and Nunu could outsmite smite with Consume.
You Sir never saw Kassadin. x'D Besides - i´ll never understand why Seju is supposed to be that strong atm.
is a really good bursty tank with a lot of peel and cc. She is very effective at ganking and has strong wave pushing with her W. That's why she is strong :P
Sej is tanky, has great AoE, slows, and probably the best teamfighting ult in the game. She does everything could want in a jung, that is why.
I'm more confused by the Gragas ban rate. I rarely see him picked or banned (in Gold I), and when I do see him, I'm not amazingly impressed.
Why are people banning him so much?
Because if he stacks enough health early he can be very hard to kill, and his ult is to Xin's what Sejuani's is to Amumu's.
i think grag is op tank, as vayne i cant even do damage to him later in the game if my team didnt deal with him early, only runs 1 armor item and cant be killed by adc, what is dis
You must be a really bad vayne..
or the fact that the meta is about tanks, with good tank items, with his ability to get resistance and amazing health scaling?
She's honestly easy to outplay. Just keep your team spread out. But people in low ello don't comprehend how to do that. They all stack up like no you take the damage i'm the carry here. And guess what she lays a boa across 5 people because of it. Which is why her ban rate is so high because people just can't play smart. And since the majority of ranked is low ello boom 83 percent ban rate happens.
If you are spread out you are so exposed to being caught of and she does not need ult to engage, she just needs to use rigteous glory and wait for someone to be exposed q them and then slow them for forever.
I remember the days of near-100% Kassadin ban rates. I also remember when Yasuo somehow managed to get a ban rate of over 100%.
I'm not scared of her but I don't have other champions that bother me more either. To me, there aren't really "must ban" champions like pre-nerf WW+Devourer anymore. I'd actually prefer to have bans directed to protecting our comp. but people rarely communicate enough for that.
Gragas mid almost 80% ban rate omg!! better nerf riven!
no, better nerf irelia
I've always kind of thought
was O.P and got somewhat annoyed when people demanded he get buffed.
I remember Jax having a 90% ban rate not too long ago. I also remember Morgana being very up there.
Jax?
He fell out of favor pretty quickly with a few nerfs to his early laning.
I looked it up, and his reign of terror was March 2014 - July 2014, where he peaked at about 88% ban rate.
Ah. To me that's "too long ago". I wasn't playing very much then, and I didn't really understand much about the game yet.
It was the same for me when I first started back at the beginning of last year. Jax was my nightmare.
Feel free to add me, if you want to talk about the game. I have a good grasp on it.
By now I think I'm ok, but I'll add you anyway!
Better nerf Irelia?
Remember when Shen and Kassadin both had 100% ban rates?
I'm doing my part to increase awareness of picking or banning out amumu in my ranked games. So tired of the Freelo Mummy being picked whenever Sej gets banned out. I, of course, say this with an 89% win ratio on him on my alternate account and an 87% win ratio with him last season on this one.
Amumu takes some sorta skill. His Q is kinda difficult to land. She has a skill shot that is impossible to miss.
are you a pleb who didn't play in s3 for Kass?
:(... I miss Sejauni being underrated.
I am aweful at Amumu. completely different.
amumu jumps in and dies.. Sejauni gets to lock the enemy from a distance and has an actually eacape ability if things go badly.
When are people going to learn that trundle eats sej? amumu is waaaay scarier than sej is. Ban the amumu and let them pick the sej, then proceed to club her to death and take her entire jungle. On the same level is nunu which again can be terrifying. the sej bans are just silly.
Sej isn't good at 1v1, but she can make or break a teamfight.
Season 3 to early Season 4 Kassadin reached 98% I think. Preseason 5 Warwick reached 92% I believe.
i always thought if the enemy team has gragas its a free win.
only thing annoying about gragas is his ult. Outside of that he usually has no damage and falls behind vary easily
Mumu's gapcloser is slower and can't be used as an escape, his ultimate CD is extremely long and his ultimate requires him to be right next to them and is therefore less safe, but his ultimate has a better payload if you can hit multiple people with it. Those are the biggest differences that I see.
I think that is also why Mumu is faded out right now. That and he drinks mana like Gragas drinks alcohol. Sejuani is a bit better right now in most circumstances, but don't let that take away from Amumu's power.
