Do people actually say Kalista is trash?
I own her. Bought her the day she came out. Tried her twice, didn't like her personally, and moved on.
However, in all my ranked games, I've seen quite a few Kalista players, and I've never, EVER, seen one of them lose. Unless I'm playing Ashe, since Ashe makes Kalista's little hops look really pathetic. I mean, she's an amazing kiter, basically has a painful af executing move, and a super powerful engage/disengage ultimate, on Ashe's level. She's a really nice champ imo, even though I'll never play her.
