Am I the only one sick of Corki mid?

Cloud273··3 votes·880 views

And adc mids in general. If you watch LCS, mid Corki is literally all you see, and it's absolutely disgusting. He's like Ezreal but without the skill (because most of his abilities are point and click and no mana problems). Amazing mixed damage and poke. Nerf this cancer please. And while you're at it nerf lethality too (no, it doesn't need to be melee only, just nerf it).

Corki sees a lot of play because with a Big One loaded he probably does more burst than any meta mid not named Syndra. This is on top of a playmaking ultimate and absurd DPS.

All his spells are skillshots except his E, so idk what you're talking about.

His maxed damage? You don't read the patch notes do you? Before his changes he dealt 70% magic damage (with 50% magic autos and 100% magic spells), now, he has 80% magic autos. He's almost zero physical damage now.

And no, lethality does not need to be nerfed. I don't even think I've seen a lethality champion in my last 5 games.

Valkyrie isn't skillshot and last time I checked neither is phosphorous bomb, considering the huge radius it has.

"Yeah I don't like this definition so I'm changing it to fit my narrative."

It doesn't help you didn't address a single point anywhere else, lol.

If you're gonna get angry, get angry for the right reason. Otherwise you just look silly.

I'm not changing the definition. Straight from the client, "Corki fires a flash bomb at a TARGET LOCATION". This indicates that his 'q' is a targeted ability. His valkyrie isn't a skillshot, it's a dash. And his gatling gun isn't a skillshot. He's just firing rapidly in a cone. The ONLY skillshot in his kit is his ult. Clearly YOU have no idea what you're talking about.

Okay you're just trolling, lol.

Q is a circle skillshot just like Karthus Q, Brand W, Syndra Q, etc.

He has one skillshot fewer than Ezreal (if you're not counting his dash, then Ezreal's blink doesn't count either).

The game even admits his 'q' is a targeted ability. Now stop spewing this bullsh*t.

Targeting an area != targeting a champion. A skill shot is considered anything thats not point and click on a champ for a guaranteed hit.

Just because YOU consider it a skill shot doesn't make it one.

I think thats like the mass majority agreeing on the term and YOU are the outlier.

then doesn't that makes almost every ability a point and click? I mean, you are literally pointing somewhere and clicking.

No, it doesn't make every ability a skillshot. A skillshot is an ability that's able to miss. They include things like Nidalee javelin toss, Jayce shock blast, most of Ezreal's abilities (except arcane shift), etc.

Corki can miss his q, you've contradicted yourself

It's a targeted ability. How many times do I have to say this?

TakeAGuessNerd1 votes

Can he miss it? If so, it fits the definition of a skillshot to you. You've contradict yourself

No he actually can't miss. It doesn't always hit an enemy champ, but that doesn't mean it missed. I mean, do I really have to spell this out for you? It's a TARGETED ABILITY. Corki selects a location and that's where it goes.

By that logic, every skillshot ability is a targeted ability. If it miss the enemy, it miss.

But corki doesnt have any point and click abilities. He has 2 skill shots, one dash, and one ability that is fired infront of him.

No mana problems? Corki has more mana problems over most of any other ADCs. Also you see him mid lane because he was basically nerfed and changed out of bot lane so that is the lane he basically has to go. Though I do generally still play him bot lane rather then mid but I only play him when we had an AD mid and we need some magic damage.
