like as an assasin kata should kill someone fast but her ult is so bad now. it scales lower ap and then up to a total of 280% ap. like its almost impossible these days to get a full clean 2,5 sec ult on someone because there are so many CCs and everyone just runs out of my ult like its not even good anymore. and why does it not have its 250% ap scale like it had before? it wasnt broken. its like one of the harder ult to land and i mean to land the whole 2,5 sec ult

lol? Hard to land? You know her ult is a finishing move right? You're supposed to do your bulk dmg with qs and ws, just learn to play her better.

Hello,

I do not think it would be a good idea to give back that power to kata, she's already extremely strong at higer level of plays.

The reason behind that is simply that when she was reworked, Riot decided to add some pattern to her kit (place a dagger on the ground, then active it) which is meant to be her main source of damages, while her ultimate is her finishing move and has the counterplay of having the stand there for 2.5s.

Surely you won't get your full ultimate off, however this is intended I believe. The way kata is meant to be played is that you have to set up some daggers, trigger them and then only ult to finish off a target.

I checked your profile and match history, and I can say this much :

  1. You are SilverV, I am sure that you understand that Katarina is now a champion with a high skill cap which is hard to reliably achieve, and that at you silverV level, it is possible that you may not be using her as, say, a diamond kata main would.

  2. You are not building the current best items on her. Here are you last ranked matches with kata : http://image.prntscr.com/image/44002759bc0448319851c456546ff4b9.png Aside from the fact that you went toxic feeding mode and bought mobi-boots only, you are not building a gunblade in any of your matches, even though it's one of katarina's current best items.

You may not have realised yet, but her scalings changed when she was reworked, with her dagger passive having AD and ap scalings, and the rest having lower ap scaling. Also getting liandry among your first items is a really inefficient purchase.

All in all, I think your knowledge and understanding of the game is that problem for this one. I suggest you watch some high-elo streamers who play kata and take advice from them as they commentate their games. If you want some insight, here is a video from Scarra https://youtu.be/kasXuKBCrP0?t=129
