"assasin mode" has room for mages and bruisers.. but not even all the assasins?

SwiftKitten88·Jan 27, 2017·2 votes·420 views

so we have 20 champs in "assassin mode" this includes all 12 champs riot themselves have deemed assassins

EXCEPT

http://universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/champion/nidalee

i mean you make an "assassin mode" and you let a bunch of NON assassins in like idk.. .

but you don't even let all the champs who are assassins in?

i mean... how is more of an assassin than ?

even if you wanted to argue nidalee was a "mage" before her rework 2 years ago... Ahri is STILL a mage. and nidalee is an assassin.

Ahri is an Mage/Assassin, just like Leblanc. She always has been.

Nidelee is more of a skirmisher in Riots eyes I imagine.

Pretty sure Riot sees Nidelee as more of a Skirmisher like Ekko.

Also as an aside, Info you are using is intentionally cherry picked to make your argument seem more valid, even tho you are very clearly using outdated info.

slayer is a subclass of assassins....

and not im not... if u click on the link.. i have in my OP then you will see that roit classifies her as an assassin and ahri as a mage http://universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/champion/nidalee http://universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/champion/ahri

Assassin is a subclass of Slayers, not the other way around actually.

my bad, you're right

still http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Assassin_champion

like i said in my OP nidalee is one of the TWELVE assasins.. and is the ONLY one... not added to the game mode

and yes ahri is on the list her her PRIMARY role is still mage

nidalee PRIMARY role. is assassin. and even the "fighter" subclass is a bit out of date.. she kinda lost that with the gutting of her HP scaling in patch 5.7 along with the removal of most of her AD scaling in patch 4.17

I feel the Wiki might be OoD on this one, because I still stand by the notion that Riot sees her more as a Skirmisher than an assassin. Distinctly remember reading it up a few months ago when they went over the classes per champion and in one of the Patch notes addressing her.

Whether or not you or I agree with that is not really the point i am trying to make.
