I hate new Cass

A Liberal··8 votes·1,331 views

I really really really enjoyed old cass. She was my second most played champion next to Bard, and I had really high hopes for this rework but it just really missed the mark.

I don't know what it is, but she is just so unfun now. Before she was really rewarding and the punishment of misclicking an e was great, it made her challenging and when you killed someone you felt good.

Now she just feels so... blah. My posions still feel meaningless besides empowering my e, q feels super short, w cast is wonky feeling, my e's feel slow, I can't refund mana make to the capacity I could before, her sustain is completely sucked out, and not being able to buy boots is such an annoyance early game when I JUST want to spend that 300 gold I have.

Also, I know know know that her old passive was a gating mechanic and was NOT A GOOD PASSIVE, but once I got experienced as Cass it gave me a really good goal when playing her, and building stacks felt really rewarding and impactful. Her new passive also feels limiting to me (not being able to buy boots), but there is nothing I can actively do to help it other than wait.

I don't know, maybe all my complaints are invalid but she seems so much more... blah now.

In other news, I have officially made my first QQ thread on the boards!

Yes, I think she was one of the bigger mids hurt by the idea that mids shouldn't get mana regen. Before the change, you'd get athene's and a seraph's and you'd be fine. Athene's sucks on mids now unless you are playing karma or lulu.

I literally only ever got a roa on her, and that was a second item. I loved the e manna regen mechanic and now it's not there and I'm just sad

her e still gives mana on kill. just like annies q

Yes but it only refunds the cost. Sure dorans ring can help, but since she is reliant on her q now to do anything in lane, her mama drains really quickly.

Before you could just spam your ass off if you were farming correctly, but now you're almost always running a deficit

I tried playing the new cass and I couldnt do it. I was really good with the old one, but this new DOT-based Cass is weird. Idk. I'll have to keep trying it.

Her new q feels soooo short though. Maybe it's because I'm super used to the old one but I t feels so dangerous to get that close and land it.

Welcome back to old old Cass.

This is the result of all the bitching about Stashu's Cass that we've been hearing for ever and ever.

Do you feel like heroes yet?

Except this iteration is nothing like "old old" cass.

You mean besides all the ways it's like Old Cass?

Not nearly as spammy and her old passive let her not run out of mana after six spells

Will get a hotfix soon and changes in 6.10.

If I've learned anything about this type of situation it's that she's going to be over buffed and then dumpstered again

Shurima Cass wasn't "old" Cass
