Lets buff Katarina.

Passive: No change.

Q: No change.

W: MAGIC DAMAGE: 40 / 75 / 110 / 145 / 180 (+ 25% AP) (+ 60% bonus AD) --> 40 / 75 / 110 / 145 / 180 (+ 60% AP)

E: Reduced incoming damage: 15% for 1.5 seconds --> 50% for 1 second

R: TOTAL SINGLE-TARGET DAMAGE: 350 / 550 / 750 (+ 250% AP) (+ 375% bonus AD) --> 350 / 550 / 750 (+ 625% AP)

Why 625% AP? Because I removed the useless ass ad scaling. Now watch this get down-voted to hell because of all the bronze players.

we need to add 200% max hp true damage on her ultimate to make her viable again

No, 300% max hp true damage and +1% Max hp true damage for every MR the enemy has.

Utter nonsense, you can't just add AP/AD scalings and pretend its the same thing as having them split. To say that those AP ratios are absurd is a colossal understatement.

Downvoted.

Actually I did check your stats, it said you were bronze but recently graduated up to Silver.

I'm convinced you're a troll though. There's no way someone present the arguments you're presenting.

You don't even have the right to call anyone bronze when you're silver, aka bronze.

From a thematic standpoint, knife lady should be completely AD based, not AP based.

Legal Wrights4 votes

Did you do any math here?

I'll post her abilities here as you've changed them so I can show my work. Maybe then teacher will give me a gold star.

Q - Throws a dagger dealing 60/85/110/135/160 (+45% Ability Power) magic damage. The dagger bounces to the 4 closest enemies dealing 10% less damage with each bounce.Enemies hit are marked for 4 seconds. Katarina's basic attacks or spells will consume the mark dealing 15/30/45/60/75 (+15% Ability Power) additional magic damage. (unchanged)

W - Whirls daggers in a circle dealing 40/75/110/145/180 (+60% Ability Power) magic damage. If she hits an enemy Champion, Katarina gains 15/20/25/30/35% movement speed for 1 second. (AD Scaling removed, takes the place of AP scaling)

E - Teleports to a target's location. Deals 40/70/100/130/160 (+25% Ability Power) magic damage if the target is an enemy.After using Shunpo, Katarina takes 50% reduced damage for 1 second. (Damage Reduction increased)

R - Becomes a flurry of blades, throwing daggers at the closest 3 enemy Champions dealing 350 / 550 / 750 (+ 625% AP) magic damage over 2.5 seconds.Daggers apply Grievous Wounds, reducing incoming healing by 50% for 3 seconds. (Damage buffed to a point that only a monkey would greenlight.

At rank one with 100 AP, her ult would do 975 damage, assuming you did not use your W or Q in that. That's enough to kill an ADC just by hitting one button. Assuming you used your W (also at rank one, lets assume you're level 6), as well as procced your Q and E...ASSUME FOR THIS EXAMPLE KATARINA IS LEVEL 6 WITH 100 ABILITY POWER.

First Q Proc deals 170 damage

Assuming Katarina is smart, she then Shunpo's to the target, dealing 65 damage with her teleport and dealing 60 damage by consuming the mark.

We're up to 295 damage.

Any non-inbred Katarina would then proc her W, dealing 100 Magic Damage and giving her 15% increased movement speed.

395 magic damage

Now she ults and, presumably, gets a full channel in the confusion, since all of her abilities are nearly instantaneous with no skillshots among them.

Katarina has put out 1270 damage in roughly 4.2 seconds, with no hope of heals saving that champion due to the grievous wounds inflicted by her ultimate.

Assuming the poor little Jinx she targeted is level 5 (bot lane always levels slower due to shared EXP), she died all the way back halfway through the ult, because she only has a paltry 845.76 HP.

It was bonus AD scaling. There really would not be a need for a compensation buff since nobody used AD or Hybrid Katarina anyway.

shyie2 votes

Yeah you're right. The AD scaling was for early game where you start with around 150 AD. And please, plug in some numbers for these scalings. if you had 500 AP, you would deal 300 from W and 3125 from R, totaling to 3425 damage without factoring in Q and Q proc damage.

Actually Kat used to be able to go AP or AD just like Akali but over the course of the tweaks, remakes and reworks she has had, and the nerfing of several items, they basically killed her ever going ad without compensation.

Did you even consider trying to plug in numbers when you wanted to "balance" this champion? 625% is astrofuckingnomical, and that's just talking about her ult. She would never ever EVER see play.

o.O can't ban in normals or TB.

Ralanr2 votes

Can't ban in blinds.

Swïft Hïkarï1 votes

This statement is half true. Draft normals still have bans, and even in blinds she would be complained about to the point she would be disabled and reverted pretty much instantly.

Seriphym1 votes

Well I don't consider Drafts "normals" but I suppose that a mistake on my side.

However the disabled part I disagree with, If (and that's a BIG IF) they actually implemented this then no I do not think they would "instantly" revert it at all. They would do what they normally do and leave it be for a while before deciding to knock it back. (Kat has seen more time under the knife than any other champ to date) and that has been normal operation for any champ they have changed.

I will say however that they will never implement something this game breaking on "Kat" ever again. [slayer-jinx-wink]

TheLastShadow452 votes

That ult will hit harder than Veigar ult almost right off the bat. The on it already had a high scaling was because it was over time damage. I'm glad you're not the one in charge of balance because if you were this game would have gone to shit in one week instead of 5 years.

-Silver 4 -50% winrate with Katarina -Asking for ridiculous and downright stupid buffs

Don´t think this has been said already, but either way: Don´t feed the troll. I am baffled by the fact that this thread even has comments. Downvote and move on while OP thinks Kat needs buffs and requires any more effort than doing this.

Pentarina Only1 votes

I don't play ranked anymore. That's why my Katarina win rate is low.

MisterHealYoGirl1 votes

Removing her bonus AD ratios wouldn't do much of anything to her; when was the last time you saw an AD Katarina? With that being so, she wouldn't need the massive buffs to compensate for that loss.

Shadow Savage1 votes

And they should also let her ult apply to minions monsters dragon and baron. And it should do 3 billion percent extra to baron. And her passive should be all cool downs refreshed instantly any time she activates an ability. And her ult should be the range of nocturnes ult. And she should start off with 1k base AP

See how you sound

Pentarina Only1 votes

That's not how I sound I actually bring logic to my arguments.

Ralanr1 votes

Good one. Very rich.

Shadow Savage1 votes

Sorry. How's this

We should make her ult scale 50,000% with AP and do true damage and not be able to be interrupted

Reasoning and logic - cause I want to be good at this game

Shadow Savage1 votes

We will just have to make sure you get Kat every time and no one else does
