The should reduce her traps to 3 instead of 5. She shouldn't be able to block an entire lane. There's absolutely zero counter-play to that.

Nope, this nerf is more than enough.

how does she block an entire lane when she cant place 5 traps unless she maxes the ability

so during the laning phase this dont happen the most common skill and highest win skill orders goes like this 1Q-2W-3E-4Q-5Q-6R-7Q-8W-9Q-10W-11R-12W-13W-14E-15E so if the player used this skill order which is picked 28.73% of time with a 58.63% WIN RATE she wouldnt have the ability to have 5 traps placed til lvl 13

It's so funny that this is what everybody says when I suggest she should only get 3 traps. I'm not talking about laning phase. I'm talking about when your team is defending a turret from her team and she puts 5 traps in a row right under your turret. I'm talking about when your team is trying to get her turret and she puts 5 traps in a row in front of her turret. I'm talking about when drake/baron is being contested and she blocks the entire river. THAT"S WHAT I"M TALKING ABOUT!!!!

ok but still she dont reach that til lvl 13, her AS nerf really hurt her... and her mid game is soo bad...

the duration of the traps got nerfed which is gonna cripple her even more... she sits at a 48% win rate since the nerfs.... and now with this i bet she will drop lower

... ummm its the amount of traps... and the headshot damage... NOT the duration... i mean i love riot's lore and game... but their balance team i have always been sorely disappointed in..

they keep trying to dodge the clear and present issue with an easy obvious fix... and just make more of a mess for the future by doing so...
