why are they so balanced? why does akali ult has twice as range as flash does? why does rivens barrier have more hitpoints than 2 normal barriers together? why is akali lifesteal so balanced and heals more then the previous sion ult? why is rivens % ult dmg so op that it deals more dmg than darius true dmg?

why is riven so mobile that her abilites are like flash and ghost basicly? why can akalis W grant vision now so she can jump over everything? why are those champions so "hold cursor on enemy and press all buttons" ?

hey riot give me an answer

At least Riven has a high skill-ceiling. Akali is just faceroll with minimal skill required.

There's more to Riven than just jumping over walls. There's auto attack animation cancelling (fast combo), skill animation cancelling, and just a shit ton of other animation cancelling techniques to give Riven advantages.

As for Akali you just point and click.

Do you consider auto attack resets glitches then? What about cancelling autoattacks?

Except it's SUPPOSED to be a part of the game. If you didn't want any animation cancelling or "abuse" then Kalista is the only champion that does that.

"Supposed to be completed". No. That is 100% intended. This is like complaining Renekton can use Ravenous hydra mid W to cancel his self stunning. Yes, Riven can do a lot of damage if she animation cancels. She also requires large amounts of mechanical skill to correctly do that, and has a lot of her strength locked up IN doing that.

Otherwise, a hidden passive is something like how Leona's passive, sunlight, does 1 less damage to champions with shades. It's a usually completely useless nod to something that doesn't actually change gameplay.

Riven's definitely not a face roll champion, but IMO she's still really strong.

The trouble i have with akali is that no matter how badly i beat her in lane she magically disappears for a stint and gets 5 kills...every time. I have no idea what to do about it, but i am determined to figure out how to stop it...i do know one thing that wont work, which is whining about it.

Because both are poorly designed snowball champs that get ridiculous to fight if ahead and downright pitiful if they don't.
