Will the MF changes make her viable?

I just picked up MF and I think she's severely underpowered. Now that her ult will finally do damage will she see more play? For how immobile she is, her damage currently doesn't compensate at all.

She's already viable but the buff to her ultimate will definitely make her ultimate relevant after early game.

She actually has one of the highest damage outputs for all ADCs. Her Q being an auto attack reset that also does damage, her W passive and active, and her ultimate once in a while can pretty much win games on It's own, but I will say It's insanely difficult to use.

I feel like Miss Fortune if given a dash or a major form of mobility would skyrocket to pick or ban status with her oppressive early game, extremely powerful mid game, and while she does fall off late game she still does damage like all ADCs. She has poke, burst, the ability to all-in, fair range, mixed damage, and even a little bit of CC.

Finally someone who gets it other than me. Miss fortune is actually extremely strong and can do amazingly well. Her early game is one of the strongest of any ADC's in the game, her late game thanks to her W (both it's active and passive) and the auto-attack reset is very good as well, not to mention it being great throughout the entire game. The only reason she isn't picked right now is because she has no ultimate past the ten minute mark and the buffs to her ult that are currently on the PBE will make her extremely lucrative to pick.

If you do the math her AD ratios end up looking like this on the ult, assuming you hit all eight waves: .8, 2., 3.2 . It's pretty insane, not to even account for the impure shots stacking and bonus damage being applied under all that. MF is strong now if you know how to use her (despite what some people want to believe) but come 5.19, she is going to be FoTM.

Make way, for it is our time (Mf lovers) to shine.

Mb if they fix her passive,so minions couldn't break it.

It will make her have 3 skills to use now, her e is still garbage in every respect with its counter intuitive ap scaling and ridiculously high mana cost. because as MF i always felt your AA was the only thing you count on late game and w, your e and q kill your dps a lot late game but i digress.

but people have been asking for passive minion immunity which would be GODLY. but this buff makes her ult actually usable and somewhat reliable.

counter intuitive ap scaling

If you are using E for the damage as ADC Miss Fortune right now, you are doing it wrong.

Minion immunity would be very strong, especially early game. Which is why she shouldn't get it until mid-late game (say level 9 or 11) if she gets it at all.

agree completely on the scaling passive having mid to late immunity.

But her e is AWFUL in every respect for her as an adc, the slow isn't worth the mana used or the damage that it does. That was my reguard, is it is a wasted skill on AD miss fortune.

E is a wonderful slow, if you're trying to use it for damage you're doing it wrong. Only thing it could use is a range increase imo. If they have too something really small like .2 AD. Q is useful late game as well. Auto-attack reset along with being useful in poke battles, it's damage is still pretty good. Not as high as your crits late obviously but enough to use. Not to mention if someone is low HP and fleeing to the back lines you can easily pick them off with the Q.

o-o pretty sure you just don't know how to use MF well.

i like mf, played a decent bit after her rework, and still stand where i do on her, she is an AA champion, that has abilities that break from her dps, her q is AMAZING early, if you can pull it off correctly. Her w buff is questionable because if you are using it to escape why are you gaining an AS buff, and if you want the AS buff why do you think the passive proc will help if you are in a fight, it only lasts a few secs. Her e i will say is a lot better, they brought it up from where it was. I agree it should have a buff to range, it has the potential to be useful.

But often times the slow isn't worth the what it costs you. That is all i am saying.

It just feels like MF always has something holding her back. Hopefully her r buff on pbe will change this

Her ult already does damage if you can position yourself. A lot of damage. ye

yes

she is pretty good now, this buff will make her a lot scarier

It would but they've said that this change is just to hold MF players over as they have more big scale changes planned for her in the future after worlds, so more changes will be coming.
