My thoughts on Miss Sarah Fortune

Leu07··4 votes·1,711 views

I think the rework was an overall a nerf to her with the removal of the Grievous Wounds, I have been really trying to use her but I just feel her soooo lackluster. She is definitely not a Carry at all! just not at the level of Jinx, Ashe and Kog'maw (just to mention a few others inmobile adcs). She is -in my humble opinion- in a really really really pocket niche pick, veeery situational, and yet, you could just pick Jinx. I really think she needs a buff... This is my opinion of what they should be:

  • W: give an indicator to the impure shot stacks, also, make it that the first 2 seconds of activation the passive can not be disabled by damage. OR let it remove slows on activation (like Eve's). Comparing it to Eve's W (Dark frenzy) MF's has less utility, eve's has resets, huge MS steroid + slow removal and reduced CD with on hit abbilities, I think MF's W needs a little something too.

  • Passive: Give it the Garen treatment! At level 11 minions will not wear off strut.

  • E: It's a really nice tool actually, but why does it have a Cast time? it makes it awkward and sometimes it can get you killed. Jinx does not have a freaking cast time on her chompers, and come on Chompers>make it rain.

  • Q: it's K, should fix some priority in there...

  • R: The damage is really lackluster, it's a channel as well, compare it to other aoe damage ults like Rumble's and Nunu's. Mf is really the shittiest aoe damage ult in the game.

These are just my thoughts on current MF, I know some people actually think she is in an ok spot, and maybe she is, but she does not have an identity as an adc IMO. She is also never really gonna be prioritized over other adcs unless you are really into her and know how to play her very well, still, I bet you could have many more Win Rates if you just used Jinx instead. Thanks for reading, please avoid toxicity.

P.S: Her VU and her new skin are really nice! I love them!

Her ultimate really needs to do more damage. In a teamfight it does next to no damage.

Exactly, it does nothing. Other aoe damage ults deal lots of damage plus an utility feature. Rumble's: high damage + slow, Nunu's: High damage + slow, Katarina's: high damage + grievous wounds, Gangplank's: Moderate damage + global presence + slow. Mf's: punny damage, period. Like, come on!

Nunu's ult doesn't do true damage. What are you smoking?

It feels like it does true damage sometimes.

I managed to roll MF in my last ARAM and gotta say...

As much as she was somewhat fun to play, she is downright awful.

W: Strut part is completely beyond useless. The only reason to ever use it is to max passive once you are already out of range of any potential damage... except that by then the Strut is already almost maxed by itself. E: Don't cast it ever. Takes mana, deals no damage and can get you killed. R: AP scaling damage being physical and AD scaling damage being magical. When I ulted a full armor Nautilus I couldn't even break through his level 1 shield. With the full channel.

Honestly? MF might be the first champion in this game with a single ability being the whole kit. Or just play her full AP/AS, because that makes much more sense.

Well thank you! It's nice to know that other people share the same opinion about MF's state!

Her Captain Fortune skin should have been her VU. It fits her better.

they need to nerf the fuck out of teleport, it's simply impossible to play a lane bully atm because you will get gangbanged all day long due to toxic teleport

What rework? There was a rework?! You mean the tiny changes that overall did absolutely nothing to her except make her good to look at? lol.

This last change wasn't even close to a rework and her ACTUAL rework was what killed her. She didn't even need a rework back when she was reworked, but they did it anyways and killed her harder than Yorick for no real reason.
