Do you really think mobility like Kalista and Yasuo are good for the game? They're the most free along with Lee but Kassadin's the one who got nerfed. Just wanted to touch on one point here: while they are 'free' in the sense that they don't cost a resource most of the time, they are much more conditional than Kassadin. He has freedom to move any direction he wants. Yasuo can only dash into enemy targets, Kalista needs something to hit to access most of her extra mobility. To that end, they're probably more healthy."

No, that's not right.

Yasuo and Lee definitely are but Kalista is pretty cancer.

It's not that Kalista's mobility isn't situational, it's just that the situation is so abundant and you feel so helpless during the whole ordeal.

Instead of blinking and killing you instantly, Kalista is one of those champions that you don't die instantly to but you just want to throw your keyboard in frustration since you just have to watch yourself die.

Also it's a sad day for Riot design when they've made something hated more than Kassadin.

Yeah, I saw this and was like, "wait...." I mean, I can see why that'd be the case in a sense. Kass is consistently hard to balance. But... somethings wrong with that statement and I'm having a hard time articulating exactly why.

"Kalista's mobility is health when your team isn't around."

So... She's only unhealthy when we go to fight her. Great, glad we cleared that up.

I love how you completely leave out his reasoning and the context.

Kassadin can flash any direction with a long range and is only limited by the cooldown and his mana.

Yasuo does not have good mobility outside of a minion wave. Kalista also needs a target, whether it is a champion or a minion to use her mobility.
