2 small buff ideas for Comet and Phase Rush.

Hi,

Arcane Comet and Phase Rush don't seem to be extremely popular, and I have an idea for each that would slightly help them without making them tremendously more powerful.

For Arcane Comet, something that often feels wrong is that when you hit someone with a spell that has a displacement effect, you're effectively helping them dodge the Comet. The small buff I'm suggesting is that Comet aims at where the player will land, not where he started. That would make the use of the CC more reliable, which is kind of the goal of the Keystone.

For Phase Rush, as its goal is to make sure the user can keep up with their opponent movement-wise, giving the user ghosting when they proc it would ensure you can run where you want without worrying about unit collision.

That's it, just 2 small buffs that could almost just be seen as QoL improvements.

Listen Arcane Comet is good as it is, all lanes can use it properly. We got top laners like Olaf, Gnar, Jayce etc using it on top.

Mid laners like Velkoz, Taliyah, Ahri etc using it mid.

Adcs are using it fine also, lethality Varus is back in the meta in Korea using Arcane Comet, Jhin is also using it with the lethality build.

Support MF with lethality is also a thing in Korea using it, Morgana also uses it properly and support xerath is a thing in Korea also with comet.

If you want to see for yourself, look at the kespa cup 2017 where they are playing in 7.22, and more champions will be using it because Aery got nerfed. So do your research and watch these vods first before you talk you idiot.

Look on YouTube for Kespa's channel and watch the vods yeah in korean commentary but you see the new meta now.

I don't really understand why so many people claim Comet would be too unreliable. For example the buff you suggest here: Comet is primarily a mage keystone and there is just 1 mage I can think of, who would have that displacement problem, Taliyah

Which other mage would be affected by this change?

Honestly, I see comet as more of a mid-lane/caster rune. (that's just me though) Having cc is great and all, but displacement is still displacement. Alistar's knockback CAN ruin a play, but they won't take that out of his kit. A prime example I can see of someone taking comet with a knockback/displacement would be Syndra. Honestly, I don't think you should be taking comet on her. Electrocute seems by far a more viable option, giving her ult some needed burst. But let's say you brought comet. You should pay attention to when comet is up, and cast your knockback when it's on cooldown. Buuut thats just my opinion.
