Regarding Janna's win rate

Ahristocats··3 votes·715 views

So now that coin is not trash anymore, Janna is back to having 54%/55% win rate, and what does this mean? indeed, Janna QQ is back

now, there is one thing that i find extremely hilarious about Janna is no matter the time, no matter the era whether it is old GD forum or this new board, every single janna thread has for ONLY argument win rate, if you ask them what's broken about janna, when you play against her what's the thing that is broken? win rate and if you don't find janna broken? you're a janna main of course But since i'm a mordekaiser OTP right now, i think i can reply to this circlejerk without biase

Over all those years riot nerfed everything in her kit except disengage, dash cancelling, and shielding power, leaving this boring gameplay that is only good at negating divers and assassins

tornado range without charging is 800 now instead of 1200 R used to disable for 0.75 sec passive used to work on allies wether they moved towards janna or not

she used to be picked in pro, and now she isn't, because she can't do as much as before, she can engage for her team like before with pre-nerf passive and pre-nerf Q So if pros pick janna, enemies are just going to take tanks, mages, or adcs, and no one of them care about janna Tanks couldn't give 2 shit about not reaching the backline, they're just here to soak damage and cc the enemy team no matter who they are, meanwhile other supports like Thresh are going to cc you for 1.5 sec from range Janna can only be good at disengaging with passive, and stopping dashes with Q/R "they can last pick janna", yeah last pick a support instead of a midlaner/toplaner, sounds like a good idea

This is why janna's win rate is high, because janna's niche in soloq is the best niche ever, since everyone will just mindlessly pick divers/assassins into you like LeeSin JarvanIV (full ad instead of full tank)Irelia KhazixRenekton and i don't know how many other picks with lethality and duskblade but wait what about juggernauts you're going to say, juggernauts also don't give a damn about janna, they can kill anyone, frontline or backline, if they're not stupid to run into the backline around janna, and janna can't protect the frontline

so what are you going to do? you're going to nerf the niche of a champion? considering that the champion was forced into this niche and can't do anything else like engaging? god forbides a support is unique by cancelling dashes and countering divers "she can still shield an adc", wow, so good, a single target shield against Lulu that has ult+shield+insane ms steroid/hard cc, or Braum unbreakable+W armor/mr, and that basically makes immobile melees not able to move

janna is just like any non-lee sin champion, she has her niche and her weaknesses except that unlike other champions, the niche is powerful in soloq considering that it's going to be good in almost every game

want to win against janna? Don't pick renekton if they blind pick janna, just pick jayce or Darius, or anything that can kill the frontline/is ranged

and if you lose despite this, then it isn't janna being broken, just you being bad at the game

for everyone who TLDR -- he's a mordekaiser main. Thats about as far as I was able to read.

Having nearly every defensive function a support COULD have in one champ? Not poorly designed at all, whatchu mean?

I said nearly cause she effectively has nearly every general defensive function you could have between her slow, movement speed on retreat towards her, a knock up, which covers the same ground as stuns and snares do + you can't cleanse it, a knock back, a shield, and a heal.

She's designed to be toxic in solo queue, despite balance in pro play. She can be op in one and not the other.

Lulu shields her ally for more, gives them an even higher AA damage steroid, and it lasts a full second longer?

Nope. 54% winrate. OP. Janna.

Nami gives her target an even larger AA steroid and has even better disengage?

Nope. 54% winrate. OP. Janna.

Sonas winrate is even higher (in low elo mostly)?

Nope. 1/30 LoL sites says Jannas is higher. Janna OP. 54% winrate.

Janna is my secondary main (after leblanc) and its always like "you won because you had janna", "you cant talk about her balance because you have m7 on janna", "janna is freelo yet youre silver".

Im actually not even sure as to why her winrate is so high. She seems fine to me. But yknow, probably cause im a "Janna main."
