A Suggestion from a Sejuani fan that doesn't feel like she fits into the meta

PapaGreg21·Jan 15, 2016·2 votes·374 views

Her biggest problems right now is that she gets counter-jungled way too hard, her autoattacks are miserable to lane with, she isn't an especially defensive heavy tank and her damage was overnerfed to the point that she isn't a good initiator outside of the hard cc of her ultimate. Her only strengths at this point lie in her cc and utility but Rammus, Nautilus and Amumu all do her job more efficiently from the jungle.

After thinking about it, I feel that a small change would make her fit better into the support role. The cooldown and mana regen from support items would benefit most of her abilities as well as health from thinks items like locket. If you changed her pathetic w to a shield of some sort (like with Nautilus or Thresh) she could be a good tanky peeler and find a better niche in the support role.

"let's just remove her primary DPS ability and make her more like every other tank with even less identity for herself"

no thanks, she's just fine as is

Sejuani is the worst tank jungler right now and currently thrives only in games that allow her to build 3+ items, which is very difficult to do in this shorter game meta. She also is limited in cooldown items which she desperately needs because she would have to sacrifice health or armor to get them.

She's not even remotely close to being the worst tank jungler and doesn't even "need" cdr, even then, it's not difficult to get 30% cdr, or 40% if they have a lot of AP. If you don't like her so much, how about you know, playing another tank?

Why don't you list the tank junglers she is better than

There are only 2~3 (Rammus and Amu) doing better than her currently, and part of that is due to people taking incorrect masteries on Sej, which has nothing to do with her state of balance anyways.

Malphite, Nautilus, Volibear, Hecarim, Nunu, Jarvan, Cho Gath and Gragas are all better than her right nowl. I don't play Maokai so he might be worse but everybody else has passed her by.

Yes, they are so much better at losing games than Sej is, if that is what you meant. Gragas, Naut, Hec, and J4 are some of the lowest win rate junglers currently and 2 of them aren't even tanks either.

item 3025 item 3110 item 3158 item 3190

take CDR runes and run one of the 20% items.

so sick of this dumb bullshit about sejuani being bad. she's not; she is playable, she is viable, she is strong. stop circlejerking about how she's weak because she's not in cinderhulk meta where she got to faceroll and ruin the game

and even then, your suggestion still blows ass. why the fuck would I pick her if she lost her damage? that's the only thing that differentiates her from other tanks; her damage scales. otherwise she's a generic engage tank with a ranged amumu ult.

not sure this is the right way to do it but it would nice to see sejuani get some changes or buffs. she's barely even viable right now. i main shyvana so every time i see a sejuani it's like.. gg ez win. sucks because she's a lot of fun to play and her ult is amazing engage.
