like riven getting a 25% ult damage increase right before championship riven skin comes back out

can we get some Kalista buffs so i can use my SKT kalista skin?

i mean she's at 48% winrate anyway, so even without the skin, without admitting total bias, she should be on the schedule to receive some kind of buffs soon, even if they're small as 2-3 more AD starting out

Maybe.But it isn't our topic so you produce new arguments.Your absurd arguments aren't excuse.

Kalista needed rework so Riven buffs were true.Loooool.

It is you. LOL.

Kalista needed rework so Riven buffs were true.Loooool.

you misinterpreted what i meant. I was saying -the riven buffs were essentially worthless because they were so tiny. Riven mains in high elo (aka not bronze) said so. -Kalista needs a rework before she gets buffed because her infinite kiting and dashes is inherently toxic for the game.

Maybe but our topic isn't Akatsuki or anyone.Riven buff was so tiny.40-120 damage is tiny? 120 damage... Ok.We accept.It was average 70-80 damage.

Main reason is double standard so your argument is irrelevant.

Marshbouy3 votes

Yes. 40-120 damage on a finishing ability where when it's used you are either so low you were going to die anyway, or healthy enough to barely take any damage. Not to mention it is not a main source of her damage.

it's not a double standard. -melee with a lot of hops that are on cooldown=fine -ranged with a lot of hops that have no cooldown=not fine

Yes it is a double standard.Riot ignores Kalista but they buff high skill champion despite 51% win rate.40-120 damage isn't low.20-25 damage is low for burst champion.

Edit:Meanwhile you admit.

''-championship riven has been out for a long time''

So they buffed Riven.Their target is more money.

100 AD is about how much damage a full AP mage does with an auto at lvl 18... so, no. Thats not a lot at all...

EDIT: Thats before armor calculations, btw

I don't believe so I'm waiting a video.Meanwhile we're talking about 480+120 damage.You forgot Riven's ult base damage.

EDIT: But the difference is as tiny as a support throwing in a spare auto for good measure. It's barely worth mentioning.

Between 53-104 but you didn't say Riven's auto?

Because Riven isn't planning on dropping an auto. She was planning on killing you with the damage of the ult. The increase of the damage of the ult is comparable to a support. If you survive long enough to force Riven to auto you again, even (EDIT in bold) before the buff, you can only be considered lucky you managed to survive THAT long.

Yeah but you forgot.Her shield supported ad.Meanwhile did not you see AS Riven?

I'm beginning to think you just don't like Riven. Like I have no idea where any of this applies to the +120 damage buff to her ult at all.

Anywho, In terms of having a Shield that scales on her offensive stat, so do most AP mages with AP shields. Are you going to say those mages should instead get AD shields? Because thats the logic you are insisting on. I could even go into depth as to how giving Riven a AP scaling shield would not help as much as you'd like, the incredibly short version being either the bases stats would spike or the scaling would in order to compensate.

AS Riven isn't good. It helps her combo a TOUCH faster by speeding up animations, but a proper Riven should be canceling animations altogether. By building AS, you are losing AD, CDR and Armor Pen, which are all critical for Riven if she plans on surviving. In the end you wind up with a net decrease in DPS.

  • it is not currently buyable, it is being re-released near worlds
  • 25% damage is not tiny
  • Kalista does not need a rework, she needs to be balanced in a way that allows all levels of play to use her and win if they are the better player.

I'm just glad we're at a point where people have stopped saying Kalista doesn't need a buff because they hate when superior players beat them on her.

I agree my good sir.

If Rito buffs champs right before a skin release OR nerfs the champ after the new skin release (not nerfing before it, literally the patch right after a new skin release), then Kalista needs a buff.

She can be strong as, but she is no where near as spamable as Jhin, Ashe, Sivir, and Lucian, since she is more of a niche and even then she seems to be in a weird spot for a higher skill cap champ (and as a higher skill cap markswoman, and higher skill cap should have lower win rate especially if newbs like me use her). So far she feels a bit underwhelming which is sad on team even when ahead. I'd rather Support other marksmen.

her Itemization took too much of a hit, she can't go runaans BT boots anymore because runaans lost 35% attack speed, botrk got nerfed and isn't that great as a first item anymore, her backwards jump is terrible, her wind up to release speed of autos is terrible, if AS or MS are slowed, the other one is slowed too, she is just so fucking gimped right now that no one can play her, that is not acceptable

Treune811 votes

Another example Project Ashe and arriving late Ashe nerfs.Remember, they nerfed Ashe on patch 6.17 instead 6.16

Ehh, I haven't felt it any. I mean, Rivens are only using windslash once you get to a certain level of health anyway, and at that point it is already a certain kill if you are a squishy. In fact, Rivens don't tend to use it in the first place unless its going to kill.

So can you morons stop responding to Akatsuki Deidara? The guy is obviously one of the least intelligent presences on the boards. Just don't respond to the dumb shit he says.

Just watch: when he says some dumb shit to me in broken English in response to my post I'm gonna ignore it. Live and learn.

Worst case, someone else sees it and doesn't bother bring it up later. Even if he's a idiot, its worth spreading if it means I might not have to do it again ???? number of times later. At least thats the logic I've built up in my head.

But your right. I'm kind of talking to a wall here.

it doesn't do much but help her not land a ult then the enemy having like 50 health left, imo they should have just added a execute sign to show when u can kill the person.

You mean something like Zed's ult but instead of telling you when you can stop its when you should pull the trigger?

yeah maybe like cho or darius but have someone that you need for it like something extra to the passive because with itself would be way too op

A buff won't help her health for solo queue and will probably make her too good at the LCS level.

what do you mean by health? a buff would make her playable again, she just deals no damage, that is the problem right now, LCS they can't even play her with Alistar bot lane and get a win, that was THE most overpowered bot lane duo in the game before the nerfs,

there are ways to buff minor things to just edge her above 50% winrate and not make her be a collossal monster.
