Quick Thoughts on All Champions (Ivern-Karma)
Disclaimer: These are my opinions so I encourage you to discuss yours back to me regardless of if they support me or do not. As long as it adds to the conversation I would appreciate it. Also I don't play all the champions a ton and this will come from a perspective of playing as with and against these champions. I do have some very strong opinions towards certain game mechanics that may be apart of my opnion that are controversial at the very least.
Ivern - He just really doesn't have a place in his current design. He has no way to hold his own in the jungle and if he can then he is broken. I believe he needs a complete overhaul to truly be brought back. I like what they tried to go for, but it is a failure and there is no way to fix it.
Janna - One of if not the most unhealthy champions to ever be in league. She needs a complete rework. It does not matter how simple and champion is. It does not matter how they can't dive in so people play safe. No champion should only be considered "balanced" when they have a +52% winrate and a +10% playrate.
Jarvan - I like Jarvan overall. He is just missing satisfaction on his W. It feels so weak and useless. I know it isn't but it feels so awful. Just give him something on his w or a new W.
Jax - Needs a minor VGU. He is not a healthy champion. He really needs to stop being a stat check champion. One part of his VGU would be changing his three hit passive on his ultimate to his regular passive and removing the attack speed passive altogether.
Jayce - I personally would love if there would be a way to make a more hammer focused Jayce. Like right now he is always built anand played around his cannon form. I think it could be really interesting if he could also prioritize hammer form and be useful on a new way.
Jhin - Just overtuned right now. His interaction with Stormrazor and Hail of blades needs to go. Jhin is supposed to be immobile yet right now he is one of the most mobile champions. He moves at ridiculously high rates.
Jinx - I really like Jinx. Ever since they did the little change to her passive I think she got put into a better spot. She is really fun to play here and there. I think her execute ultimate is fun and her form switching as a marksman is unique.
Kai'Sa - I really think she has a cool design that is a marksman version of Kha. They both still feel unique yet their abilities are clones. I think Kai'Sa is just a bit overtuned. I think she could use a nerf to her AS steroid and/or to her passive base damage.
Kalista - She probably needs a minor gameplay update. I would say she can keep heroath sworn, her ultimate, and either her passive or rend but not both. I don't know which to keep because I don't know what people value more anand if one would be unable to be balanced.
Karma - Revert if not at least bring fans back and allow ally cast W and shield bomb. Yup short and sweet.
