Kalista's passive is always going to make her unbalanced.

If she doesn't deal damage she is useless, but if she can deal just a decent amount of damage she is overpowered because she has too much mobility.

Yes she is weak.I hope she gets buff for patch 6.19.

They didn't buff Kalista because 6.18 is Worlds patch.They don't want to see Kalista.SKT Kalista etc.They don't want new Kalista team skin.

She's probably gonna stay nerfed until they rework her. Her kit is inherently unfun and toxic to play against.

just needs a rework. fun to play, but as long as passive and ult remain as is she will be broken in the right hands.

its a shame too, she is quite fun to play. but i will admit she is honestly busted by a competent player. so she will remain gutted for now.

with how much focus they are putting on reworking older champs like galio, warwick ,etc, it might be a long time before they address some of the newer champs who have overloaded kits like Azir, Ekko, Kalista and depending on how you feel about him, maybe Gnar too.

I think the ult should lose its hard CC, become some AoE slow, so it's not really a "Okay we're going in" more a "need to buy some time for reposition".

I have a larger rework concept that is aimed to actually weaken her lane further, make her mid game about the same, but give her late game scaling.

Problem with doing the slow is that it makes a ranged support really awful with her, as the team will turn around and just kill the ranged support.

So no different to how it is now, but at least in the case of a squishy range (Soraka, Janna, etc), the ulti would provide some immediate soft CC if kalista gets jumped on.

Kalista's 90% AutoAttack ratio hinders her lack of critical strike damage late game. Buff / Rework?

I actually played a game against a Kalista/Soraka as Nami/Ez. She won handedly as it was just impossible to stay in a long fight against her. There was very little to do.

I think the reason she seems weak right now is a lot of the stronger champions have good trading and you need a sort of specific set up to play her. The ADCs that are strong right now are almost overshadowing a lot of the adcs who aren't that strong; but it's not to say the others are weak.
