The only way I imagine this champion's development is some high on drugs dev at Riot HQ thinking about how to make Vayne and Kog'Maw meta again so he decides to fuse both into one champion whose only weakness is lack of range.

Lets be serious, Kaisa is an autoattack based champion that blows up squishies with a Q, why can she build like an on hit adc and deal ability dmg like a Lucian or lethality Miss Fortune?

She not only destroys squishies but also mows down tanks in a couple seconds and the best part is you cant build to tank her since she deals hybrid damage, and not only that but she also deals % dmg on missing health that also scales with AP and guess what, she can build items like Zhonia which is the perfect defensive tool for an ADC while profiting from all the stats it gives, and not only that, but her on hit build is not limited to attack speed, its usually paired with items like rabadon or zhonia.

I would like to build Zhonia on my other adc's too but guess what, I cant since i would be wasting an item slot just for a stasis effect to save my ass.

Kaisa's itemization is too optimal and versatile, she can build too many items that other adcs cant while not wasting any of the potential of said item.

E+ Stacked Rageblade+ Nashors Tooth+ Greaves already gives her the attack speed cap and if it doesnt it should be pretty close, thats only 3 items which sinergize perfectly with her. she still has 3 items left to build whatever she wants whether its survivability, even more dmg, crits, more AP, whatever, everything works.

Lets look at other adcs, crit adcs usually need Stormrazor, Rapidfire Cannon, Greaves, Infinity Edge and Last Whisper to effectively take down a tank. Thats 5 items while Kaisa can perfectly do that job with 3 items. Even other on hit adcs like Varus or KogMaw cant even compare to her, Varus doesnt have any kind of mobility and needs to hit extra abilities to effectively make use of his % dmg, note that Kaisa only needs to auto, and KogMaw just doesnt stand up to the meta in general, he is even less mobile than Varus and much easier to focus.

All in all, Kaisa has the upper hand on all crit adcs itemwise since she does the same job with 2 items less, shes a late game adc thats not as bad at the early game as other similar adcs are, she is supposed to be an autoattack based adc but still has 2 hard ability nukes (Q and W), her ult gives her a massive shield that SCALES BOTH WITH AP AND AD. Lets be honest, new and reworked champions feel like a brand new $5000 worth gaming PC compared to a toaster laptop.

her q auto/ auto q (I'm not really sure in what order she does that) in the early game is completely disgusting. Does way too much damage for a fire and forget combo

You can nerf her by not feeding her and playing better...

Kai'sa is strong at every point of the game and her upgraded e+ult are making her way much too safe. She is too slippery and she doesn't trade anything for it.

She has now 15% at all ranks missing health dmg on her passive instead of 15-20%. So lategame nerf I guess.

They should bring her range back to 500. Kai'sa is too good at everything

yeah kaisa is legit busted , but half this community ends up saying 'DonT FeEd HeR'.... meanwhile not even a late game master yi can 1v1 her because she just one shots. LITERALLY one shots. And if you do survive long enough to fight her, she has a massive shield and can camouflage. Rito plz. Stop making overloaded champs. The sad thing is , shes broken rn and will stay broken and like all other champions that have been like this , shes going to get overnerfed and become useless..... Because they dont know how to keep a champion just good. Feelsbadman. but at least do something now. Shes beyond broken.

If there's a problem with her its that she's just Vayne 2.0 but less mechanically interesting and more stat checky.

I'm gonna make a bold statement. They need to nerf item 3115 to indirectly nerf her AP build. It is super cheap and gives AP 80 with 50%Attack speed, 20% CDR and magic damage that scales with AP that fuels her upgraded W&E even faster.

Honestly that is the reason why that build is a problem. Doesn't help that Rage blade is also a part of the problem but that item is always been broken or useless in the past.

Still, Nerf Nashers tooth.
