Once again, Janna is OP

Linna Excel·Jun 6, 2015·4 votes·841 views

Dear Janna,

We really missed you as the highest winrate champ in the game. You might be subtle compared to some of the other supports but you get the job done. Your Q is a nice disengage. You've got a slow in your W. Your shield is nice in trades. Your ult is good in a teamfight. Yet despite all that you are rarely banned because no one but Leona finds you overpowering. I love getting you in ARAM because I've got a crazy high winrate with you there. I really hope Riot gives you a tiny buff and never touches you again until you need another because quite frankly we really don't need to deal with another non-Janna champ having the highest winrate in LOL again.

- the once and future queen of winrate

Janna is definitely not the easiest support to play lol. I can name a few that are much easier than her.

Blitzcrank Morgana Leona

jana have no skil shoots and is impossible to kill if she has brain. all she needs to do is point click her e and q if someone get close. she is super mobal and easy self peel.

You're right, she is hard to kill but shouldn't anyone on any champion be hard to kill if they have a brain? In fact, her Q is a skillshot which in my opinion is the bulk of her kit. It's great for peeling as well as using it to disable your enemy long enough to reach you, in a chase for an ace for example.

Um, Blitz is actually one of the hardest supports to play. You have to land his skillshot and know when and who to pull. Blitz can cost you the game by pulling the wrong person.

Sona is probably the easiest.

Meh, I beg to differ, you're correct in saying that if the wrong person is pulled the game can turn, but the same goes for Janna's ultimate. Janna's Q is a skillshot as well and if not landed it can cause a lot of trouble. There have been multiple times where I have saved people using her Q.

I find that Janna isn't hard to play at all. Her Q has a pretty wide hitbox and you use your ult when you get dove.

KittoJun 8, 20151 votes

It's all personal preference I guess, I don't find her hard to play either, she's one of my main champions but I don't find Blitz hard to play as well. Blitz's Q hitbox is pretty large itself and of course both take the right timing. Janna's ultimate can be used in more than just diving situations but it can be great for making last picks on enemy players that are attempting to get away.

Like in a post I wrote earlier, its all about who's playing I guess and I find both of these champions easier to play but Blitz being the more user-friendly, because if you can't land max range hook, you can always run and E your target then hook them.

Blitz definitely falls in the "easy to learn, hard to master" category. When I am on with him, the other team surrenders at 20. If i'm off, it's a rough game. He is one of the easiest champs to get your ADC fed though.

How is blitz the easiest support to play? His entire kit is based around one fairly easy to dodge/avoid skillshot. Good blitz players carry games by getting picks with his q bad blitz players litterally do nothing all game. Bad janna players still shield thier adc heal there team, etc.

KittoJun 8, 20151 votes

Good Janna players can change the tide of a game as well, she is able to make viable picks with the right mindset and the right items. The champion is as good as the player is. Yeah sure, you can just heal and shield your teammates but Janna has the power to turn a teamfight as well, not just Blitz. Timing your ult and Q's are a big thing with Janna and using it at the wrong time can really hurt your team.

I think we're trying too hard to compare two very different champions and that's my fault I guess. Both champions have their merits and in the hands of the right player both are very good. In my opinion from personal experience playing both Blitz and Janna in MANY games I just find blitz and easier champion to play and that may be because I played him quite a bit for a while.

Janna by herself is almost worthless. Her entire strength is in skirmishes and teamfights. She is strong, but only when she has a good team.

Full ap janna with 40% cdr and release luden's was scary. For some reason it got 50 charges per spell cast.

The best thing they can do to Janna is help her out with the tank meta. Give her w a persentage Max HP Bonus or a Steal Movespeed like Malphite's Q.

khorneyJun 6, 20151 votes

because all around she is the best supp out of all of them the disenage peel is real on her. heal, knock up slow , shield that grants attack damage. passive movement speed to allies. the fastest champ in the game

PRAISE THE Janna ! GIVE US BUFFS O' MIGHTY RITO!

Chief MayonnaiseJun 7, 20151 votes

She isn't op. People just pick only engage supports and get hard countered by her. She's the disengage queen. When would it ever be a good idea to engage on the disengage queen?
