The Way Riot is Talking About Urgot...

...You'd think he's a combination of Kalista, Nidalee, and Leblanc.

The reality, however, is that the majority of the community would much prefer his spammable q over the unreasonable, overdone, and flat-out unnecessary mobility we see in quite a few champions (Seriously, can somebody explain how kalista's passive fits with her theme at all? Unless the theme is "CertanlyT", it has absolutely no place in her kit or anyone else's). The only champion that falls into this category that was nerfed was Yasuo , and even so, his kit is still overloaded as all hell.

But no, I'm wrong, Kalista 's passive is balanced, Kassadin has more oppressive mobility and damage than Nidalee and deserved to get nerfed into the ground, and Leblanc has a high amount of counterplay (Come on, if you can't lock her down in that 0.1-second window when she q-w-w's, you're a fucking scrub who deserves to lose).

You want to rework Urgot? That's perfectly fine. But the audacity of calling him "unfun" to play against when there exist some champions that many within the community would love to see flat-out removed from the game is one of the single most infuriating things to me that someone from this company has ever said or done.

I'd say Kalista's passive makes perfect sense as a spirit of vengeance, trying to relentlessly hunt down her targets.

Thats what I'd be saying if her passive only let her dash when moving towards enemy champions.

Preach it.

Seriously, you have made the exact point of what is wring with Riot's flawed logic.

There are way more frustating to play against mechanics in this game that Urgot's Qs, Zilean's Old bombs or Old Karma's entire kit, but they make blind eye to every single one of them, or simply lovetap them.

Urgot is not some kind of godlike laner. He isnt some hated lane-bully or game balance blight. He doesnt even have a good lane against anyone that can all-in him, specially.

There are several more champions way more ''unfun'' or ''toxic'' to play against that Urgot.

Just to name a few.
