The buffs overshot by alot. 54% to 55% WR with high pick rate at ALL elo levels and is near perm ban status. But who cares right? Ahri mains are historically fanatically insane over this champ and will defend this champ to death even if every ability she has does 2k true dmg."Ahri still needs to deal more damage!". everyone one else are still bitching about a now gutted zoe.
NoPaxt7 votesNo an Ahri main, but I feel she is perfectly balanced. If she's on my team great if she's on the other team okay.
She easy to counter as well...
Laughing Fish2 votesshe is perfectly balanced.
As all things should be.
Death by Glamour3 votes… I thought you died
Madsin253 votesBro...you are bronze 3.
Try getting your ass handed to you by an ahri that knows what she is doing.
Ahri has a 51% winrate in bronze.
She has a 55% winrate in diamond+
DuskDaUmbreon7 votesYou nearly had my upvote, but then, as is the standard for gameplay, you had to go "HURR DURR (X) CHAMPION MAIN SO STUPID, HORDES OF DOWNVOTES INCOMING AMIRITE?", which made this feel a lot less like an actually justified post (Ahri is too strong right now), and more like a post designed solely to shit on Ahri mans.
Death by Glamour5 votesTbf though
when ever the topic of ahri nerfs appear on the boards the topic gets hard downvoted by ahri mains
DuskDaUmbreon4 votesSo...The exact same thing that happens every time someone calls for nerfs to someone that isn't Yasuo or Zoe?
Nobody wants to see their main nerfed, unless they're so overbearingly strong that they're nearly at permaban status. That's not a hard thing to figure out. You don't want your main nerfed any more than I want my main nerfed.
Death by Glamour3 votesmost champs aren't rocking a 14% play rate and a 54% winrate however
she is clearly in a strong spot the problem is figuring out what is strong about her
her damage, utility and mobility are actually pretty meh, its nothing noteworthy as a champ but it may be because shes just a good generalist

I feel like she's in the same spot as Oriana, nothing overbearing but not necessarily weak. She's just in a good spot. Play with some hard CC or prepare to play hard...
Death by Glamour2 votesno shes not like orianna, more akin to old gragas except not as OTT as he was
sure she has a lot in her kit, everything that you need actually but as I said nothing stands out as OP. I think shes doing so well solely because of how broken ignite and electrocute currently are. If riot will not nerf those however she will likely be nerfed directly.

I meant in terms of her being a pick. You shouldn't feel overwhelmed, just know you'll have to work for it.

I mean, she's got a lot of burst through an easy R-E into a Q, elec proc and dead. In a meta where damage is high and survivability is low, she's great at getting picks on carries.
Problem is, this can be overshadowed by the fact that she cannot solo carry because she has to deal with four other solo carries once everything is said and done. A good jungler paired with a great Ahri can win most games if they put the pressure in other lanes. That plus the fact her counters got nerfed pretty hard (Zoe, Zed, Talon) or are straight up unplayable (LeBlanc, Annie, and maybe Ekko or Viktor).
W-R-Q-auto-R-E-auto-auto-R-Q-IGNITE
Team jumps in.
Imagine if someone stunned or planted her. Her E (charm) cannot go through minions, so if you stop her from jumping around she can't land a blow. She would die in one second, because she isn't very tanky. It's not like Yasuo's Q, which has no counterplay.
WalkingInACircle1 votesIf they're going to nerf her I'd recommend raising her ults cooldown.
DuskDaUmbreon2 votesThat all may be true.
However, even when your main's clearly too strong (unless they're so strong you don't get to pick them that often, in which case you only want them nerfed enough that you can pick them again), nobody wants them nerfed.
The point I was making had nothing to do with OP being right or wrong. The point I was making was him making it an "us versus them" scenario. With killing all possible discussion related to nerfing her correctly, in a way that doesn't upset anyone too badly.
Krully3 votesbut he is right...
DuskDaUmbreon6 votesIt doesn't matter if he's "correct" or not, he constructed the post in such a way that it almost said "Agree or you're an Ahri main", which does not encourage any discussion at all. Instead of actually attempting to make things work out, so that you have a real discussion that might actually result in both sides being happy (Keeping what Ahri mains want, while still weakening her to where everyone else is happy), he just made it into an "us" versus "them" issue.
You can't have reasonable discussion if you shun everyone who might disagree. Unless your stance is something like "Genocide is wrong", where any middle ground is either nonsensical or also immoral (As I hope we all agree that genocide is bad in any amount, that should fit just fine), you can't exclude the other side simply because it disagrees with you, because otherwise you're just making an echo chamber, which fulfills no purpose whatsoever.

Sry, but you guys put it on urself. Ahri mains are worse than any other main when it comes to sheer bias.
GreatWhiteNorth2 votesThe OP is full of it. I started maining Ahri back in S4, when Ahri mains were getting flamed as a troll pick.
Shame on you.

Release ahri was more broken than release zoe lol so of course they had to nerf her to the shitter eventually. Her kit is that strong. To this day if she gets even minor buffs she is the best mid in the game, kinda like now
Dope Solo2 votesTruth.
Noor Sakata1 votesNear perma banned ? The proof that Ahri isn't broken is her ban rate is really low for a 54% champion with such a pickrate lol
