Like seriously MOST uninteractive fkn champ in the game. Even the shittiest player can be the best Janna and tremble the day you play against one with proper reaction times you cant do ANYTHING. I dunno either nerf support items or flat out gut her,she is the most unfun champ to play against. Yasuo? Darius? Zed fk all that you cant do jack shit vs that thing

God forbid 1 champion counters your highly skilled melee champions.

yeh god forbid a champion with a negative skillfloor to make half the champ roster useless

Negative skill floor? I lol'd. Janna has a few skills, but doesn't need them to beat someone who just tries to run at her. She also has weaknesses, you just need to learn how to play around her spells to take adclvantage of them.

As for things skilled Janna players can do: Zoning lanes, objectives, and jungle pathways with Q Walklocking enemies over walks with R Flash R angles to split enemies apart (it's not easy to get people to go where you want them to, even moreso when there are multiple enemies) Not spam tornadoes and actually know when to use them Q canceling jumps. Slow ones are easy, but snapcasting to cancel some of the quicker ones is something that comes with practice.

Meanwhile your target's shielded any time you touch them, then you're knocked up, slowed when you get back, Oh, Q's off CD for her again. Shield again when you finally get back.

And its a wonder if you aren't already dead by that point as a melee.

Keep in mind this isn't even considering the bonus movement speed she offers to make things even more exciting!

She's known for being uninteractive and has been nerfed for it repeatedly several times.

Redemption+Locket has brought her to the front again, and she likely deserves nerfs for it once again.

There is only 1 solution to make it so that you never run into a Janna again.... Can anyone guess the solution?

uninstall

And people think there is too much damage in the game. If there was less damage Janna would be a million times stronger than she already is. Nobody would EVER die.

This sounds like a bronze support fill player to me.

Dear god. A support champion that provides movement speed and shielding to an ally HOW DARE RIOT DO THIS. NERF THIS CHAMP WTF WHY WOULD YOU LET SUPPORTS PLAY SUPPORT. NERF BOT LANE NERF URGOT NERF ALL ITEMS LET EVERYONE ONE SHOT EVERYONE

Cool story bro.

There is a ridiculously easy way to fight against a Janna: FARM! A Janna loses the minute she uses her skills to engage against a smart enemy. Her skills are for saving her adc, not attacking. So just don't be the type of brain dead player who can only RAWR ALWAYS ATTACK ENEMY NO MATTER WHAT and learn to just wait for Janna to blow her skills before going in. If she doesn't, then you can just farm easily enough.

Also, if you want to counter her, a poke composition works nicely.

let us farm 40mins into the game lads. who needs to end anyway.

If I see the enemy lock in janna, there is no point in picking a melee champion that isn't a pure tank.
