Global and Semi-Global Ultimate's I've excluded from this comparison for one of the three following reasons.

  1. Can only be used globally in specific or unlikely situations involving summoner 12 or someone else's global or semi-global Ultimate Ekko Nautilus Vi etc.
  2. Teemo
  3. I have decided to not include the global or semi-global ultimates of Marksmen (ADC's) in this comparisonAshe Caitlyn Ezreal Jhin Jinx

Gangplank 160/150/140 Karthus 200/180/160 Lux 80/65/50 Nocturne 150/125/100 Pantheon 150/135/120 Shen 180/150/120 Sion 140/100/60 Soraka 160/145/130 TahmKench 120/110/100 TwistedFate 180/150/120 Xerath 130/115/100 Ziggs 120

Two of these are not like the others

Lux 80/65/50 The cooldown on Lux's ultimate is ridiculously short, not just for a semi-global ultimate, but ridiculously short for an ultimate in general. Most champions can't get a cooldown of 50 on their rank 3 ultimate with max CDR or can barely get it, but Lux has it that low with no cdr at all, and can get actually get it as low as 27.5 seconds. The base cooldown on her rank 1 ultimate is as short as a lot of champions base on their rank 3 ultimate. Why does Lux who already has an extremely oppressive laning phase also have a non-existent CD on her ultimate. Her E is already impossible to dodge, I mean really not only does it have 1100 range but look at the fucking size of it compared to a Gragas Q

Ziggs 120,,,,,,,,Riot please, this nerf was too much.

TL;DR Lux needs nerfs and not just to her ultimate cooldown, also Zigg's could use some buffs.

UNRELATED: How can I put an image at a specific point in my post instead of just at the top?

You just have to open the image in a new tab and then copy paste the link where you want it (at least thats how I do it) Kinda like this http://i.imgur.com/WFhUNCt.jpg

But its hard to compare a single spell from many different champs. Shen and Tahm are "tanks", Lux and Ziggs are poke/zone mages, so..

On this topic, can Karthus' ult be up JUST a bit more frequently? CDR doesn't fit into his build all that much, he's weak enough as is since his wall got nerfed for... Some reason. And if your team doesn't have SOME way to mitigate Karthus' ult, well, that's your problem.

you can get away with 30% cdr@ 18 runes combined with cdr boots and now you have 40%. If you use the 45% mastery by level 9 you have about 30%. Shhh it's my secret weapon.

You cant just compare all those ults because they have high range. 3000 range is a lot, but far from global. Also, the other ultimates are either no skillshots (Gangplank Karthus Soraka Shen) or have mobility attached to them (Nocturne Shen Sion TahmKench TwistedFate Pantheon). Ziggs and Xerath might be a bit too high indeed. Lux has some serious problems, but it is not her ults CD.
