Is it just me or is Kalista still broken? My friend and I just won a 2v5 with a Kalista and Sion bot duo. Please. Balance Kalista.

46.8% win rate but your analysis is also valid.

Riot Tangrams: Kalista is indeed broken. We just wanted to wait and see if people would find out that quick! We decided to make her e have a 5.0 ad ratio. And her q has a 4.0 ad ratio. We intend to nerf her in future patches.

If I must, I will main Kalista for 3 straight weeks to bring her 46.8% win rate to a solid 72.3% win rate, so you have a decent reason to nerf her.

Okay, do so.

Riot keeps her at an abysmal win rate because she is broken at a mechanical level. She's impossible to balance.

She's only broken when you put a lot of time into her and you are a generally good player, which unfortunately for all the Kalista haters, can be said for absolutely any champion that someone takes time to master.

That's the exact reason Riot keeps her in a garbage state. They balance almost exclusively around the LCS, where champs like Kalista used to be pick-or-ban. So for the sake of more exciting games, the nerfed her into oblivion.

That's also why they put such a priority on reworking Ryze again. No matter how hard they nerfed him, Faker could still use him to crush everyone.

Kalista has been driven into the ground repeatedly, she is possibly the most garbage champion in the game right now.

Just because an off case where you did something with her occured doesn't make her broken.

Kalista needs major buffs to ever be viable again, but Riot won't do that because they'd rather destroy her than just ban her from professional play.
