To Those Who Think Ahri's Gameplay is "Broken"

In response to all of the people that think Ahri has "broken gameplay," like the one from a recent thread that got somewhat popular:

If you're an Ahri main or you play her a decent amount, then you can carry on and ignore this. However, if you don't, continue reading.

  1. Ahri has some of the highest mana costs of all mid laners. Her Orb of Deception, her main tool for harassing, poking, and farming costs up to 85 mana, and her Charm also costs 85. You can't really go in for anything more than a minuscule skirmish before you get a mana increasing item, like a item 3802 or a item 3070.
  2. Her AP scaling isn't that high. Her Orb of Deception only has a 35% AP scaling, and the rest of her spells don't do too much more.

Now, next time you go into a game against an Ahri, at least be aware of these things to use them to your advantage. I'd just like to state some facts that would make Ahri seem less "broken," and more fun for you to play with and against, for a stronger understanding of the champion. Thank you!

laning phase is where the mana problem would be exploitable except its not cause you are talking about max rank q

plus in reality her q has a 70% ap ratio since it passes twice

the bad she has is so little compared to the good thats overbearing

also mana cost shouldnt make a champ immune to nerf consideration

thats like saying "graves on rework release shouldn't of gotten changes since his q has 100 mana cost at max rank"

i dont hate ahri but they made her way too forgiving when she makes mistakes which is against riots whole philosophy on game health and kept her like that for over a year
