Chammpion XXXX is broken!!

I'm tired of everyone saying that every champion is broken. If you think about it, they are all designed to be a little broken in their own way. That is kinda the point. Look at them, Aatrox he is good for heals and undeath, and general slaughter. Ahri good for burst, sustain, and mobility, Akali instakill and go invis, Alistar puts you wherever he wants you, Amumu stun your entire team and cry at you crying about it, Anivia freezes for days, undeath passive, Annie insta aoe stun, Ashe always crit and cc engine...need I continue?

Point is that everyone says so and so is broken, but in reality the cases in which they are actually broken are few and far between. Some people just know how to play their strengths well and other people don't. Get over this whole "I'm playing XXXX because broken and op" mindset and figure out what you can do better than everyone else.

Yes listing every champions strengths make them sound OP, but it is when their strengths massively outweigh the weaknesses are when problems arise.

I concur and I said that brokenness does occur, its just rare and it constantly happens where someone says "XXX needs a nerf because they are soo op!!" when the reality is that everyone has their own weaknesses and you just have to adapt what you're doing for that weakness.

No, not all champions are broken. They're all designed to be strong champions, but there's a definable difference.

Actually, the term broken ends up being misused often. It should be used in the context of either an unintended interaction that grants far more power than intended, or a messed up interaction that ruins the functionality of a champion. Examples of these would be when Skirmisher's Sabre dealt pure damage (ignoring invulnerability and similar effects) instead of true damage, or when Diana's R range was shorter than her Q range.

But in any case, while it's not valid for a person to claim that a champion is overpowered by simply saying, "Look at all their kit tools!" it's also not valid to claim that everyone is equally strong. There are some heroes that are in dire need of changes, and a few others that are underpowered.

Thank you. You said what I was trying to say, but better.

I agree that a lot of the time people QQ about champs, but there are times when champs really are too OP or broken.

The only thing I want is a reasonable amount of counterplay. Every champ in the game should have a decent chance at outplaying any other champ. This isn't the case at all for several champions right now. Even if you get counterpicked and you're facing a hard counter, you should be able to outplay them if your skill level is higher than your opponents.

Didn't realize uniqueness meant brokenness. Besides, you are listing all strengths and no weaknesses, so of course they'll sound broken.
