I've seen this several times now. Why are players using Ahri combos as the standard for a squishy to die?

'The fed Twitch who built MR can survive an Ahri E-Q combo. So broken.'

This adc crusade is getting out of hand, people are founding every reason to be mad at this point.

Twitch HAD A item 3139 Don't try to make it seem like he has no defenses.. Also Ahri W hit Tristana not Twitch, so her combo wasn't full. Not only that, but twitch was running 12 flat MR, combine that with the item 3139 and Ahri isn't dealing any damage to him. You can argue that Ahri did have pen, but that is completely irrelevant because Ahri was super behind this game. 40 mins and still not full build.. He only took 3 tower shots, and late game, that is absolutely nothing, its not even a factor. Towers are super weak late game, even to a squishy carry. Final point to make, AHRI DOESNT BURST THAT HARD. You can bet your life if that was Talon , twitch would be well dead.. Due to the nerfs a few patches ago Ahri deals alot less damage, so why do you think that she can 1shot a fed Twitch when she didnt hit w or ult? There are so many factors in why he didnt die. None of which you mentioned because you're intellectually incapable of understanding what's balanced or not. Not only is this post absurdly incompetent, so is the writer.

I mean, that was just a case of the Ahri literally not having the Potential Damage to 100-0 the Twitch. He didn't get any shields. He wasn't Basic Attacking so you can't blame it on Lifesteal or Phantom Dancer. Nobody Exhausted the Ahri. There is no Champion on the Enemy Team who I would expect to build Knight's Vow. Immobile Marksmen get slightly higher HP/Armor in some cases. But I can see NO evidence whatsoever in this clip of ADCs being inherently broken. That Twitch may as well have been a fucking Training Dummy. It was literally just a case of Twitch's Base MR and HP + 18 Levels worth of Scaling HP + whatever MR he had in his Runes and Ahri having an insufficient amount of AP and Flat/Percentage Magic Penetration to eat through it.

If you're going to try to jump on the 'ADCs are broken' bandwagon, you should at least know what you're fucking talking about.

Nothing about ADCs are inherently broken. Hypercarries are strong right now because there are a lot of items and champions right now that act as enablers. Your team had NO items or champions that were acting as enablers. There is actually no fucking reason for this thread outside of you getting dicked on and turning to the forums to complain.

EDIT: YOU CAN'T EVEN BLAME IT ON QSS/MERCURIAL.

Nami's a support. Doesn't do that much damage. Or at least shouldn't do that much damage.

Ahri only landed E>Q (W hit Trist), didn't proc TLD, didn't use Gunblade, and is known for not having enough damage to instaburst a squishy. Anybody can tell you that. Ahri can't kill a squishy with a single combo, unless she uses ult and Gunblade's active, and lands everything. Trust me, I know this very well. Ahri doesn't have the damage, unless it's one of the super-squishy champions, like Kog'maw, or Vayne. You know, the ones with jokes for health bars.

Twitch took 3 tower shots. Just 3. In late game. Towers are jokes in late game. So much so that you can sit under one and literally not even take damage as Sion. He also apparently had a Mercurial Scimitar, meaning a good amount of MR.

Look, Twitch is definitely a bit too strong right now. But at least be realistic here. He didn't exactly build straight glass cannon, and you had only an Ahri and a Nami against him.

Edit: What the hell was that Ahri's skill max order!?

That ahri had 4 completed items vs Twitch´s 5 if we exclude boots.

And ahri had item 3151 item 3157 which both gimps her damage agaisnt squishies badly.

For Ahri to actually burst anything she needs a build like item 3020 item 3165 item 3285 item 3089 item 3135 then any AP item of choice +item 2139 . No exceptions unless massively fed which she wasn't.

And despite the fact that's Ahri´s build had two items she never should have had if she wanted to burst, the 14,8,11 Twitch still nearly died.

But why couldn't Ahri burst? Because she had less than 350 AP, missed 1 spell and didn't have ulti going.

If you expect a mage with around 350 ap or less to kill a full build marksman who´ve built magic resistance with only 2 non ultimate spells then i´ve got bad news for you.

There is no mage in the entire game that can do that, much less Ahri that has rather poor burst for a mage/Assassin hybrid to compensate for her ultimate and Q speed.

The issue there wasn't Twitch, it's you and your extreme bias OP ._.

Disclaimer though, i myself do not think that Twitch alright in his current state, i find him to be a massive and annoying pain to play against and his snowball is ridiculous.

But what OP is doing is nothing more than biased circlejerking.

SamBunzly10/6/2017, 3:18:32 PM2 votes

Theres a lot of things out of context here, such as how fed the twitch was and what items they both had. This is perfectly possible if the twitch had picked up a Mercurial Scimitar and Merc Treads, and the Ahri wasn't building right.

Also it should be noted that 2 of the 3 balls of Ahri's w hit Tristana, reducing the damage dealt to Twitch significantly

Ahri does no damage anymore shes weak, of course she cant kill anyone.

I don't know she seems to be working for me just fine in your elo ( not that it matters i still pull this shit off on my plat mmr silver account)

Also you only hit E+Q on twitch, your W only hit trist and you didn't have ult up to make sure your W actually hit twitch.

I'm more concerned about towers, if anything.

Nymzo10/6/2017, 1:59:25 PM1 votes

Guys... instead of mindlessly typing, observe.

Yes Ahri did use all of her combos on Twitch and her w all attacked Tristana instead of Twitch.

And unless I am wrong, Ahri's w is like her second source of dmg, that's why he didn't die.

Drugoth10/6/2017, 4:41:32 PM1 votes

I'm pretty sure Ahri's E > Q combo isn't meant to 100-0... besides, he only ate like 3 tower shots.

Darkdemon65310/6/2017, 4:43:46 PM1 votes

You really think Ahri should kill a target with just an E and a Q?
