Don't you love when players give a clip to say somethings broken and the footage clearly shows misplays and mistakes?

SoloQ in a nutshell.

yea

all AOE champions could have done the same

said no one ever

Put Lissandra, Lux, Brand, Xerath, Vel'Koz, Annie, or Ziggs in the same position, they will do the exact same thing.

Only difference is that aside from Lissandra, they all will do it from much further range than Neeko.

Moody P1 votes

is this supposed to justify any of them?

D357R0Y3R1 votes

no champion you listed can do what neeko did

you have to be a trash iron player to let vel'koz/xerath kill your entire team, if enemy team had vel'koz or xerath the irelia would already have gone hunting them Same for lux or ziggs

annie and lissandra are insanely telegraphed all those champions never scored a pentakill against an experienced streamer like rush

neeko uses passive and invisibility and hide her ult then nukes your entire team

ITS CAMILLE RELEASE OVER AND OVER AGAIN people on the boards come and try to justify how balanced their broken champion is, when said champ has 80% ban rate

let me tell you that no release this year had 80% ban rate, pyke had around 40% on release.

actually any one of them could have (exception to lissandra, not too sure). enemy team had no mr against a fed neeko.

any champion he listed could actually do the same. especially brand or vel cause all they have to do is press r.

D357R0Y3R1 votes

find me a video of brand or vel'koz doing this in challenger and i will agree

FOR JUSTICE2 votes

i dont know what that has to do with them being able to do this in this situation.

because thats all i said.

and this game wasnt even challenger, rush was smurfing NA placements during this stream. highest player is plat 4.

I can off similar plays regularly in low gold as Diana if I get fed and the enemy team fails to build against me, and Diana 1-tricks have regularly made it to #1 rank in challenger over the years, so I'm sure the clip exists of other champions doing it. The enemy was ripe for the picking with zero resistances against an AOE burst mage.

Pretty simple. Her math and kit are simple. Despite the OMG TRICKSTER CHAMPION!!!11!! The mechanical requirements for her are nothing that hard to grasp. Hell shes listed as an Easy champ on her difficulty.

FOR JUSTICE1 votes

surprising to see a new mechanically simple champion every once in a while

Kai Guy1 votes

Honestly her passives about the most complex part of her kit. Using it for fakes, using it for W fakes. Using it to hide R. Her Q? some mechanical growth in how one would use it in lane for harassment and also wave clear. But its pretty easy to understand oh it does damage best to a CCd enemy champion. I should cast it on people I see CCed. W? Passive and some Jukes are the mechanics for it. But most folks can easly go. OH NOE I NEED TO RUN AWAY. use W for ms. E. Amping it off Minions for max snare... but it works just fine if you cast it only on 1 target you want to CC for E. R... Can I get into range? Is something in my range? Better hit R.

I don't want to make her out as a complete braindead champion with no room to grow or have mechanical superiority to other players. Just point out overall The floor on her is low as its very intuitive to use most of her ability's to a positive effect with out much practice or need to master difficult mechanics.

Simple champions can be a frustration or annoying for player. Garen Teemo been getting some hate recently.

Personaly my most hated champion is are Blitzcrank because all he has to do is land a Q regardless of his build on the right target to potentally win a game. The thing I have hated most in the game was the old AP sion.

Baron Barian3 votes

It's because people would rather ban new champions than to learn how to fight them.

Give it another week and the bans on her will drop significantly.

D357R0Y3R1 votes

yea that's what people said about camille

Moody P2 votes

Downvoted, mages are never OP and Neeko's actually kind of weak right now, her R has a delay you know?

D357R0Y3R1 votes

yea, in the meantime she slows you and you can't see the spell if she's invisible/taking an ally form OMEGALUL

and i like how only death cancels her ult and you can use zhonya during it

take nunu ult and give it a stun, and allow him to move during the channeling why not xd

take nunu ult and negate 75% of its damage for half the channel.

this is kind of taken out of context.

the match in question, from the lucians op.gg: http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=selfish+adelaide (the 20/7/10 one)

heres what happened, but from NEEKOS point of view, with items showing. i would like to highlight the items part.

https://gfycat.com/DearReflectingBobolink

notice how not a single person there has ANY MR whatsoever, other then irelias merc treads (notice how she was the last one alive too) and taric's locket, which was on cooldown during the fight. baron naturally lowers resistances they didnt have too, so neeko was practically spoon fed this tbh, especially because she built full AP with mpen boots and 4 stacks on item 1082

It's almost 2019, stop posting this shit.

Unless you're a bruiser, offensive itemization vastly overpowers defensive itemization and isn't a viable choice until your 4th or 5th item on the majority of champions, outside of top laners. MR is especially inaccessible to non-tanks. Things have been like this for multiple seasons now, catch up.

FOR JUSTICE1 votes

The point is dont complain about an ap champion killing you with a crapton of AP if you arent even trying to lower it. like, someone is literally complaining about being dealt this damage in this instance and doing NOTHING AT ALL to stop it. not a thing.

From a fed neeko one at that.

Beerstein1 votes

It's a symptom of EVERY new champ in ranked, people don't want them on their OWN team as much as the enemy team as they know no one has experience with the champion yet.

new champions always have high ban rates
