More double edged sword abilities!

I mean things like Bard ult, Kindred ult, Bard E... I think that's it? These are the most fun abilities in the game that feel good for both teams IMO and I'd like to see more!

You mean the occasionally permanent wall at the spawning pool in URF mode? It looks completely one-sided to me.

There are a few other double-edged abilities, such as Anivia's wall, Trundle's pillar, Tahm Kench's Devour, Ivern's brush, etc., but I completely agree, more double-edged abilities would be amazing. What I particularly like about them is that they are designed from the ground up to give agency to both the player and their opponent. They are proof that agency and fun aren't this zero-sum game where one side's gain is the other's loss, and the tremendous power and versatility that get attached to these effects benefit everyone.

As long as it aint like TahmKench w where it is only useful for counterpicks like against malzahar , zed , or fizz mid

I like them too. So long as they have synergy with the users kit that is. Bards E/kindred's ult+ her range is the best example.

I agree... there's honestly not enough trolling potential in the game. WE NEED MOAR WAYS TO TROLL. For example a new champ should get an ability like kalista ult except without the knockup and the user would have full control over the ally, even when deciding where they go hehehehehe.

I think they're worth the "danger." A troll can ruin a game if they want to on most any champ just by intentionally feeding. I think trolls are pretty rare though and the report system is good enough that it's not enough of a justification to limit how many of these abilities are in the game. Just my opinion of course.
