"Suicide Karthus" "IF YOU DON'T TAKE THIS EXACT SUMMONER SPELL ON THIS CHAMPION YOU ARE AN IDIOT".

See, this is why people don't break the meta or try new things often. Because people like you act like they know the exact best things at all times.

And as a side note, the entire POINT of Suicide Karthus is to die in the middle of their team after abusing Zhonyas for damage, nuke them, and then revive + tp and do it again. Taking Flash ruins the entire strategy.

Because everyone assumes that anyone who picks {{summoner:10}} is trolling, so he simply heed the expectation.

All Revive needs is some tweaks here and there so it can truly be a somewhat competitive choice. I did face off against 1 tele/revive guy before tho, he went Nasus I think.

He was really a big pain for me.

Why not Flash and Revive? Revive is one of, if not the strongest Summoner Spell in the late game. The trouble with taking it is managing to get to the late game and still be a challenge for the opponents. Having 1 or 2 players with Revive can work, but put it on all 5 players' champs and their team is probably going to get rolled over in the early and mid game, and the revivals will then be irrelevant.
