Ashe needs a small love tap

Hige·Dec 29, 2016·4 votes·590 views

Her balance seems to be in an OK spot but in comparison to other adcs she's tagging a bit behind, considering that she was top tier a couple patches ago I'd say that she needs a small buff in order to bring her in line.

Often times I find myself staying too long on a fight to reach max stacks on her Q, would it be too broken if she had access to her skill with one less auto? maybe instead make it so that Volley counts as an auto for it but only as one auto, none of that crazy stuff of hitting 5 champions and getting max stacks inmediately

what do you think?

So what you're saying is MissFortune needs to blow her head off?

A small one, not a level 18 full build one, can't you read?

A small one would be blowing her head off with Miss Fortune.

For real though increasing slow duration would make her impossible to escape, which is a problem. It should slow, but not enough to where you can't get out of it ever. They could lower mana costs maybe. Honestly though I don't see the problem if she's "slightly behind" other ADCs.

She has a lot more poking ability than most ADCs and is a great counter to Vayne. She also is very overpowered with items like item 3071 and item 3022 added on her arsenal. And her E is amazing to search out for incoming ganks.

O.o Frozen mallet on Ashe... that's a first, I guess that since the slow is higher you'd replace it but, it seems a bit overkill

Black cleaver does seem to be good on her but again, up until you get max stacks of focus you'd be stacking it regularly, it doesn't seem particularly more effective on her than say, Caitlyn.

No, no, no. Do NOT build item 3022 on Ashe .

haha that was my reaction as well but hey trying things out never hurt :P (just not in ranked please...)

As for the original topic, Ashe definitely needs a little love after 4 nerfs in a row. However, decreasing the autos on Ranger's Focus is not the answer and would make her broken. I think she just needs to get her previous slow duration back.

Slow duration seems like a good buff as well, considering that a lot of top laners go for swiftness boots either way :P

I don't think she needs to be touched at all. What needs to happen is the current champions that are meta need to be toned down especially ones in bot lane such as Vayne and Caitlyn. If you end up just buffing her right now then she will just become the number 1 adc again and then have to be nerfed causing more problems.

Vayne doesn't need a nerf. She has less than a 50% winrate and is squishier than smashed potatoes.

Caitlyn definitely does need one though. She is a complete nuisance who can just poke and run away at any time. Plus, with a support, it's almost impossible to beat her early game.

Vayne is literally picked almost every game in high elo. ??? lol
