Does anyone else think Corki's passive is super boring and pretty useless?

ShadowParker··1 votes·974 views

It's a useless passive... 10% bonus true damage from autos? That wouldn't be so bad, if the % wasn't so low. Not to mention Corki is an AD caster so he doesn't auto nearly as much as other characters. This passive just doesn't fit him in any way. Thematically or for gameplay purposes.

What do you guys think?

It's certainly not very interactive, but it does give him a lot of extra hidden power. Coupled with his innate ability to armor shred and deal tons of magic damage, Corki is a nigh unstoppable damage machine if he's ahead.

It's far from useless, if it was on tristana where it would fit, it would just be OP. But yeah, it doesn't really fit his playstyle or theme. Maybe make it %max hp true dmg? :) Jking

HAHA YES. LETS DO IT. Let's give it to all champions. On tristana? Perhaps. The 10% isn't much at all though. She could have 500 damage and only deal 50 true damage per auto. That doesn't seem too bad compared to yi or vayne.

Maybe if the passive applied to his abilities to?

Even then. It wouldn't help his q or ult much, his e would definitely be way better. And his w, well his w shouldn't apply it because it really makes no sense for it too.

It used to crit.

Corki was ridiculously OP.

The Passive is awesome. The reason they gave it to Corki is because he cant abuse it so much and gives extra incentives to auto as him.

But don't you think he could have something way cooler? He's still an adc, I don't think he needs incentives to auto as him.

It does give him a cool theoretical build path centered more around stacking AD rather than being crit-reliant (as most ADCs are right now). Like a BT/BC/LW sort of build. And it can work (I've used it with great success on ARAM). Unfortunately, for SR, a build like that just isn't nearly as strong as his current TF standard is. Perhaps if his abilities had better AD scaling as well, so his whole kit would actually promote AD stacking?

I fail to see why this post is getting downvoted.

Because you said it was useless when it isn't. No one is saying it isn't boring, but saying it's useless is silly.

You're right, it's not. But it essentially is at the same time. This should go on someone who autos a lot. That person is not corki, he should get a new passive that better fits him.

Say you have 400 AD and enemy tank has 300 armor. Your AA will do 100 physical damage (after mitigation) and the passive will add 40 true damage. It's pretty useful.

Most tanks have around 2500ish-3500ish health late game. Do you really think that 40 true damage is going to make a huge difference on a character that is an ad caster and not a hyper carry?

To do that additional 40 damage by building AD, you need 160 more AD. So yes, it helps his DPS by a lot.

How does it help his DPS a lot? He doesn't auto nearly as much as someone like Tristana or vayne does. He's an AD caster. Besides, he's not gonna spend all his time autoing a tank to deal 40 extra damage.
