Korean Kayle boosting B.S.

There's this stupid thing going around with Windspeaker's Kayle top maxing her w and building an ardent censer and a knight's vow and then their jungler being yi/xin/tyn etc someone super hypercarry and then Kayle literally just keeps them alive for LITERALLY forever and you can't kill kayle because the Yi/Xin/Tryn kills your entire goddamn team in the 3 seconds he's invincible for. This is exploiting the way the game works, this is as good as cheating, and it made me get demoted to silver 4. This isn't okay. This needs to be fixed. Right now. Remove Censer from the damn game. It's such a niche item and you've had to tweak it so many times because it keeps being stupidly OP on some champs and not viable on others and guess what? Even with ten bans you can't ban everyone that's busted and it's stupid having to waste a ban every game on Kayle just so this bullshit doesn't happen. Your game is supposed to be closely monitored. This has been a thing for WEEKS. It NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH.

You gotta take advantage of how weak it is early. The jungler needs to gank her, and the top laner needs to be remotely competent. I honestly don't know how a top laner doesn't come out of lane 10/0 against a kayle building support and a yi with weak ganks.

I'm probably in the minority here but I'd rather play against it than early game junglers like lee, elise. It isn't as frustrating early and I always feel like I can win teamfights against them if we CC the yi and overall play the teamfight well.

I really like the idea of 2 players going into a game with champs that synergize well. People should have a plan. Just the fact that they have a plan and actual synergy is half the reason why they're winning.

It would be cool if people actually made comps in solo queue. Things like malphite + yas, sona + mf + midlane aoe.

And this strategy is so easily beat if you know what they are doing.

"Oh no, she will W and ult the carry!"

Kill her, make her waste her ult, kill literally anybody else, make a pick, simply kill them after the short ult is over etc etc

This is like saying that synergy shouldn't exist because two champions are stronger than one

I just read up on it and watched some Vids, it's actually pretty easy to deal with, I'd imagine if a Duo were doing it in SoloQ it'd be a nightmare though, all in all tho if you get a better early game jungler (Elise/Lee) who can destroy Yi in his jungle early and a top laner who can just out right win vs a Kayle with no self impact items you should be fine.

It works cause people don't know what to do vs it.

This strategy is really easy to beat if you know what they're doing beforehand (pretty obvious). Just stomp Kayle into the ground early game since she's taking support masteries and rushing a support item, and make use of the fact that Yi is trying to rush bloodrazor by pressuring objectives and lanes. Combine this with the knowledge that Yi goes toplane after he gets bloodrazor and you have yourself a free double kill. When you delay them from snowballing, you stop them from winning.

You know the same thing happened years ago when bot lane ADC/support became a thing? Strategies change. Get over it.
