AREN'T YOU TIRED OF KAI'SA?

Yordle Skywalker··47 votes·13,773 views

Here's the thing: Aren't you all junglers/assassins/bruisers tired of kai'sa? As an adc she outruns u, when you finally somehow (either flashing or whatever thing you do) get to her, she becomes invisible and she is again far from you, if you get to her again, then she WOOP teleports wherever she pleases and, surprise, she was almost dead but shield comes in action :) and if you are still able to catch her and fight her, she just Q's which does waaay too much damage, and SURPRISE you dead. Ok, I mean, as an adc you are not supposed to have stealth (with increased MS), mobility (short range instant TP) with a shield as well, super long range poke, free damage with Q (she doesn't even need to click on you, just press Q and you eat all that damage). Also there's another things like she scales off AD, AP, can evolve abilities, does both, physical and magic damage... I could be here all day talking about this "adc". Her kit is disgusting, so toxic, as an adc she has an assassin kit in my opinion, shouldn'be be played as an adc then, I feel like she's a hyper buffed Vayne 2.0, innecessary imo. I know adc players might say she's just fine. Well, she's always picked or banned, I'm starting to feel tired of seeing Kai'Sa everywhere, every game, like there's no more adc's. When was the last time you saw a Kog'Maw, Corki, Kalista or Varus? I feel like... it is always Kai'sa on one side and some adc like Lucian, Vayne or Sivir on the other side, but there isn't a game without a Kai'sa involved. I just think she's too much. Let me know your opinion on this, maybe it's just me being too worried or ignorant, but I just dont enjoy games anymore when I see Kai'sa in either team. She really needs to be brought to other adc's level to make the game more fair, since botlane has such a huge impact. Let me know if I'm just crazy. Thx

No ADC should have both a dash and invisibility and still have an insane damage output *COUGH COUGH Kaisa FUCKING COUGH COUGH Vayne *

SO TRUE

To be fair Vayne needs a couple items to come online and her invis comes from her ult, which has a higher cd than Kai'Sa e.

Saezio2 votes

at least vayne doesn't have 200% BASE AD+ 75% AP shield that teleports to anything that has been CCD or W

She also doesn't get 4 seconds of att speed after exiting stealth and can't press an auto aim button that can keep going while she invis.

ye I mean, Vayne is a strong adc, she can be more or less annoying, but still, pretty balanced imo, strong but not toxic or non-sense, u know. kai'sa is just... what i said, u take a Vayne and hyperbuff her to the limits of nonsense and u got Kai'Sa. Like she has too many things. So u're right, vayne is super strong mid to late game, but not unbalanced nor stupid.

No, I'm tired of JInx and Jhin. Jinx the most. Hyper Carry and Back Line ranger with to much AOE Dmg and safety. Tired of Jhin cause' he's just in every game and it gets old. Like where are the Lucian and Ashe mains at anymore?

Honestly I'd rather play against a Jhin than play against an Ashe. Being W spammed by comet Ashe the whole of laning phase is boring as fuck.

I'd rather Lucian never be back to being in every game.

Least you can play around Jhin's reload system.

Means absolutely nothing.

Akali's below 50% and is still one of the most unfun and broken champions in existence.

Her kit isn't that problematic... Remember her range buff at her release? Now that was totally unnecessary and that's the source of all of her problems, because she used to be the lowest ranged marksman.

I'm not tired of Kai'Sa, I'm tired of Caitlyn who is the most popular popular champion in the game and had been the most popular champion in the game for the better part of the past 10 years.

I suppose You might be more tired of Kai'Sa than Caitlyn if you're Korean Challenger, but otherwise..

Saezio2 votes

Worldwide plat+ stats have kai'sa 6% more picked than cait (22% cait 28% kaisa)

That delta only widens the higher Elo you check.

So, you sir, are ill informed.

Ill-informed? I'm looking at all ranks which is 100% of games and you're looking at Plat+ Stats which is less than 10% of games. In all games, Caitlyn has a high pick rate, and she has had it for years longer.

Saezio2 votes

You count iron bronze silver and gold. Because players there are so good that the stats are worth mentioning? xD

I just have an opinion that stats matter when they refer to people that at least have SOME clue about how to play the game.

Yordle Skywalker1 votes

I COULDN'T AGREE MORE. Iron to Silver/Gold shouldn't be a point of reference for stats, I mean, Iron and bronze, with all my respects, but they don't even know how this game works. Silver and Golds they are starting to realise that the game is actually so different from how they imagine. High Gold they finally kinda know how it works.

I wouldn't say you're crazy. You're just expressing an opinion, but to be frank, I'm just not having the same problems as you concerning Kai'sa. It might be because I did some research on the champion as soon as it came out back in the day (which I've done ever since the fiasco that was Yasuo's release, but that's a story for a different board XD), or maybe my play style just messes with Kai'sa players. I find that Kai'sa shows up in a little under a third of my games (seriously, check my match history... Second thought don't, my last two games in a row i had 4 tilt-o-matics instead of teammates and the sudden influx of residual salt might cause heart problems for readers), and I'm not seeing her banned very often either.

As far as her kit goes, well... I don't really have much difficulty with that either, as an opposing support or adc. Her q will only burst you down insanely hard if you're the only target in range, hanging out by your minions and/or teammates can absolutely ruin her chances to use it, especially early game. Her long-range shot is, in fact, a skill shot, so moving in random patterns when not auto-ing minions or otherwise occupied often leads to them missing you altogether, and if you see an ally get tagged with it, and know she can teleport to them, typically i hangout near said ally until the mark fades to prevent surprise-deletions, or at least avenge said teammate if it happens. Her dash into stealth is separated into two parts, increased move speed, THEN a short stealth followed by atk speed increase, and at no point during either of these is she immune to CC, so if you can guess where she is, or wait and land an on-target debuff like a Teemo q as soon as you can see her again, you can still mess her up.

Again, not saying you're "crazy", or otherwise trying to devalue your post, but 90% of the time when I see Kai'sa, the last thing she does is stand out. Hope some of the details above help anyone struggling with her and have a good one.

Yordle Skywalker2 votes

That's all good but in first place we are talking, at least im talking, about assassins, bruisers who tries to make a catch on her mid/late game, not in laning phase, which we all know her laning phase is not one of the strongest. Obviously if we are late game and idk, Zed, Yi, whoever tries to catch her waiting in bushes or whatever strategy, here comes the problem, u dont have minions, u dont have anything i mean, its not laning phase, which is what you are talking about. Also u are one of the few people who doesnt struggle with her, just read the comments.

I've been reading the comments actually, but boards vs in-game are two VERY different experiences. I'm not the only one in the games I play having no trouble with her, like I said, the last thing Kai'sa does in most of my games is stand out, and it shows in my match history. That means teammates I get matched with in solo queue aren't typically having a hard time with her either.

Also I'm sorry for being a bit blunt here but trying to catch her mid-late game? Alone? Even when waiting in bushes that's just not an effective tactic in most cases given the nature of her abilities, nor should it seem like one to begin with. Hit and run is her specialty, mechanically and in her lore. You're not going to chase her down like that BECAUSE THAT'S PRECISELY THE SITUATION SHE SHINES IN, she WANTS you to try it. Far more effective solutions are to have someone camp the turret she's trying to split-push past, or holding onto some CC for when you see her instead of just letting it rip thinking only 4 of 5 enemy champions are present in that teamfight (that, when you think about it, seems suspicious now when you think about her long range dash-shot, doesn't it?). She has counterplay, is it different from some of the other champions? Well yeah, obviously, otherwise one strategy would work for every situation and you wouldn't be having problems with her when you did the same old same old.

Those tactics I mentioned before still apply too; under turret she'll be less likely to dive in and delete you, ESPECIALLY if you have some form of CC, because if you can land it on her she's now stuck under turret/dealing less damage while now being shot at for hitting a champion under turret. In a group (even just a pair, with one teammate), her q now has two targets to try and burst down instead of one, it's burst potential to kill either one of you has been roughly halved (and now if she seriously tried to rush both of you, it's your turn to capitalize on HER mistake, cuz you're both going to be doing full damage to her). Like with all things, the outcome of these interactions is liable to vary; An insanely fed Kai'sa might seriously be able to bum-rush you and take two champions solo, and now you're stuck guessing how else to deal with it. That's part of League. The Yi might seriously surprise her from a bush and manage to dodge everything with a well timed q, or even just delete her before she reacts. That's also part of League. Your teammate might honestly have tried to save you but missed their ability/ messed up their champion's mechanics when Kai'sa jumped you from over by scuttle, that's... Well, it's technically human error, but also part of League.

I never once said I was playing that toxic cesspit of a mode (unless you assumed that by solo queue I meant solo ranked, and not just playing the game without a premade, which is fine, miscommunication is a thing), and I never will because folks get even WORSE there (in terms of being a complete jerkoff toward each other in-game, not skill level, just to clarify), than in norms lol. I offered advice/tips based on what HAS been working for me, and what I HAVE seen. I never once claimed to "have it all figured out", so kindly put that garbage back wherever you found it. My apologies for not EXPRESSLY stating that I don't play ranked and assuming that if you were honestly curious, you'd look at my match history to see if I was trolling/legit (which you did evidently look up my profile, though instead of for research it was to default to the ever present "oh you're insert rank here so here's an insult-reply" kind off stuff that honestly kind of makes me think maybe I should be the one disregarding YOUR input XD)

So for any other folks out there who might have this sort of logic, let me clarify;

  1. Yes, I am in fact, a casual player and haven't ever really climbed the ladder much due to several factors, such as loss of interest in the game for several months at a time, or deciding to chill and just practice champs I like in norms to try and improve (instead of being one of those guys who does their "practicing" with new ideas/champs, etc in ranked and ending up ruining someone else's climb while they're actually trying their best on their most practiced champs), after getting stuck at what feels like my rank for my current skill level.

  2. All my input was (and usually is) based on past experiences with the subject matter (namely the champion Kai'sa in this case), because frankly that's just better data to work with than some overly large datapool of billions of users that shows you none of the actual interactions between champions, and gives you little more than a win/loss ratio.

  3. My posts are NOT attempts to devalue other people's grievances/input, I state the differences I'm seeing, offer input as to why I think the differences are happening, and hope to continue the discussion and see what I learn from it. I also really don't appreciate "attack responses", however low-key, and would appreciate if folks I end up interacting with on these boards would kindly remain civil.

  4. At no point is anything I post going to be a "be all, end all, this is how it works because I say so" statement of the content I'm discussing at the time, because if I honestly felt that I already knew it all about the subject matter, I wouldn't be discussing it to see how others feel about it and try and figure out more about the content.

Let's not devolve this conversation any further going forward, yeah? I really hate having to put the "politically correct" proverbial training wheel disclaimers on every discussion just so people can't try to start petty things like flamewars. It should be common sense to know better than to do it in the first place.

Saezio1 votes

You are claiming stuff like "I don't have difficulty dealing with Kaisa" and "Maybe my playstyle messes with kai'sa players" and "I did my research on the champ"

And not even once mention you are talking about games in the lowest of the lowest skill bracket.

If I said "Oh I've never been hooked by blitz" or "I never lost a game" and then you find out I only play bot games but just didn't mention it, that would be cool with you and I am a perfectly honest guy because "that's what I see in game", RIGHT?

It's like trying to argue against a physicist's opinion on quantum-mechanics because "that's not what you experience in every day life".

Or saying "hoops in basketball should be at 2 meters high because that's the highest anyone I've seen can jump" when you are 11 years old

FUUUBAAAR1 votes

AGAIN I point out, this is just what I've seen. I pointed out SEVERAL TIMES that people were free to check my profile, and furthermore, according to RIOT GAMES THEMSELVES, I'm still playing against people roughly my own skill level because of how matchmaking inherently works. I understand that for some people, ranked mode is everything and unless you're gold or above you're "low-level" play, but I don't try to discredit roughly half the player base like that, as I've seen fellow bronzies outplay my friend from diamond on rare occasions in a stunning display of (admittedly probably temporary) brilliance. I don't play ranked because the toxicity people exhibit once something (even just a multiplayer game rank) is on the line is unacceptable to me. It's not fun to put up with people like that and I enjoy the game more in unranked as a result, ergo I play it.

Furthermore, your comments about physicists and basketball are not only irrelivant (since in those two scenarios I'd be talking to certified physicists or the b-ball regulating body, both being actually proveable/licensed/etc experts on the subject and would therefore see no need to argue with them to begin with), but rather insulting insinuations. I never once claimed that I didn't have difficulty with Kai'sa as a result of my own "skillz", or w/e people call it that means the same thing now, nor did I at any point say that what I've seen is as good as it gets. I stated that I'm not really experiencing the same issue because, well, I'm not. By pointing this out the players reading would have been able to check my match history (which I OPENLY STATED THEY COULD DO), see what rounds I've had with Kai'sa, and been able to compare data. I was literally just providing extra data to the conversation to help folks track down what is/isn't OP about Kai'sa so we could hopefully get RIOT's attention and see a balance/rework that appeases as many players, high AND low elo, as possible. My reward for trying? I keep seeing salty low-key attack/attempt to discredit you style replies. So I'll be leaving this discussion after this post.

I know I'm not the only person who doesn't have particular issues with Kai'sa, others with similar lack of difficulty dealing with the champion have posted on this very board, yet here I am being berated for trying to contribute. Message received, I'm clearly in the wrong place to have an actual discussion about this topic, I must have ended up on the RANT! boards by mistake.

Anyone who cares to have a decent conversation about something with me in the future, your thoughts are a welcome addition. Folks that just want to state stupid garbage like "well your opinion is invalid because it's not the same as mine", please stay away.

This literally means nothing. You can't use this to prop up any arguments for Bronzies having a say in how the game should be balanced. I don't care how many times a Bronzie outplays a Diamond, he is still Bronze. There is nothing wrong with being Bronze but being Bronze does mean you're basically new or terrible at the game. Would you want a gardener fixing your car or your mechanic tending your crops? No, so why should a Bronzie have a say in balance. He doesn't know how to play the game at even the most basic level, no more so than a gardener knows how to fix a combustion engine.

FUUUBAAAR1 votes

You my friend have some serious misconceptions. I'm on my way out of this board but the sheer IGNORANCE of what I just read is appalling, here's why;

  1. Everyone who plays this game is human, and has every right to have input on a game we ALL play. This "oh well they're bronze so they're either too bad or too new to have a say" garbage is just that, garbage. Maybe you live in a place that doesn't practice/understand democracy but to be frank, even if you do that doesn't give you (or anyone that doesn't own League) the right to try and take people's right to input away like that. The only folks who even can are RIOT themselves, and they've never once claimed to share this belief that low level players have no business offering input, feedback, suggestions, etc.

  2. Having a say in how the game should be balanced does not mean having complete control over it (in case that's what you were implying).

  3. Literally everyone started out Bronze at some point, failure to reach high elo doesn't mean you suck so bad that right clicking is a challenge, it means other players are learning faster than you. Everyone learns at their own pace and there's no shame in it, nor should there be exclusion/punishment for it.

  4. High elo is just that, HIGH elo, the top of the ladder. For there to be a top, there has to be a bottom. Not everyone CAN get high elo because for every person who DOES climb, someone else has to be climbed OVER and both have equal right to input.

  5. People (like me for example) who don't even play ranked still play the game, and should have a say in how that game develops when the company is accepting user input just like everyone else. Trying to force a multi-mode game to revolve around just the portion of users in one mode is also inherently ineffective, as only half or less of the player base's concerns are actually being addressed. This leads to the disgruntled party eventually leaving for better games, and revenue loss, which could then lead to the company shutting down and NOBODY being able to play anymore.

I quit playing ranked permanently specifically because of the kind of ignorant folk who claim low elo/skill at the game somehow makes you or your opinion worth less than high versions. You're free to be competitive, I have no issue with that, but you have no right to force "your" view of/playstyle of the game onto me, so kindly refrain from trying.

FioraWillCarry1 votes

Anyone who has thinks they have an idea on how to make the game better should be heard regardless of rank. If you have ideas on how to improve the client, skins, the interface, the in-game tabs or stuff like the item builder, sure, there's no reason not to hear you out. But when it comes to game balance, no Bronze player should ever be taken seriously. If a Bronzie wants to talk about balance and share their fantasies about what would balance the game sure, I have no problem with that but it is extremely unreasonable to expect anything they say about balance to be give any kind of weight. It makes no sense to do so.

No one who is stuck in Bronze has a clue how the game works. How could they possibly contribute to a balance discussion?

FUUUBAAAR1 votes

So because I haven't touched ranked at all in over two years now and am technically still bronze as a result, I'm physically incapable of getting better at the game and learning how it works? Do you REALLY not see the holes in that logic? People can improve without playing the oh so precious ranked mode to try and show off their skill to people they'll never meet anyway.

Furthermore, if not having a high ranked mode score automatically makes me bad at the game, please explain why I keep seeing golds and occasionally even platinum players in the matches I play in unranked? If anyone shouldn't be taken seriously, its folks who try to discredit/devalue other's opinions based on nothing more than a glorified leaderboard system, or by referencing similarly small amounts of data just to try and justify their willing ignorance.

As a jungler who plays primarily assassins and bruisers no i honestly find her one of the easier adcs to lock down and kill as she doesn't have an instant blink and near permaslow (ezreal),her long range dash requires her hitting you and she has to jump a set distance from you unlike trist (who like ezreal can jump whilst cced if timed right) and lacks hard CC to stop your engage like varus or ashe or again trist.

Every adc has their own safety tools unless your name is kogmaw and her's are just generally easier to deal with then a lot of the slipperier adcs like Ezreal, Trist, Lucian etc.

In saying that i dont think zhonyas should be a core item on her but as this only applies to her full build AP builds, it doesn't show up as much as it used to.

I will also take Kai'Sa over Kalista anyday who for a very long time invalidated melee's because by stacking AS she became nigh untouchable to them.

Cronofuge2 votes

Annoying maybe. But honestly she's super feast or famine. A behind kai'sa is so worthless you can't even approach fights. I can understand the frustration as a top laner if you suddenly have to fight a fed kai'sa with %health magic damage. I was spam picking her this season but I couldn't get back into diamond until I switched it up to an actually good champion like jhin or cait.

As an adc she outruns u, when you finally somehow (either flashing or whatever thing you do) get to her, she becomes invisible and she is again far from you, if you get to her again, then she WOOP teleports wherever she pleases and,

  1. She doesn't outrun you, if you use a gap closer she has to use her E to escape and even then she's not really going that far since it lasts for less than a second. Her shield lasts for 2 seconds and repositions her something like 500 range away from the target, very much in the perfect distance of every ranged ability, gapcloser, pull, hook, cc and ranged auto in the game.

Ok, I mean, as an adc you are not supposed to have stealth (with increased MS), mobility (short range instant TP) with a shield as well, super long range poke, free damage with Q (she doesn't even need to click on you, just press Q and you eat all that damage)

This literally tilts me so hard i want to explode. Who made you the lead designer of the damn game so you have authority to say what an ADC should and shouldn't have !? Vayne and Twitch are adcs with stealth and they were in the game since bascially season 1? Did you think Vayne and Twitch are new characters? Do you not count them as ADCs?

ADCs Shouldn't have mobility? These are the only ADCs without any mobility, not even a MS buff in their kit KogMaw Varus Ashe that's literally 3 out of like 20. Basically only 15% of the ADCs don't have any mobility in their kit and you're here saying ADCs shouldn't have mobility? Like are you for real? Should tanks not have defensive abilities?

Then you say she has a kit like an assassin she shouldn't be an ADC. So the only reason you're tilted is because you believe she should be classified as an assassin and not an adc? If riot moved her in the collections tab from Marksmen to Assassin all your problems would be solved right?

And the funniest (or the saddest) part of it all is that youre a god damn Master Yi main and you're complaining about Kai Sa!?

Please let me demonstrate your logic

Aren't you tired of Master Yi? Assassins shouldn't have sustained DPS, Assassins shouldn't have a heal and a damage reduction, Assassins shouldn't have true damage, Assassins shouldn't be able to become untargetable.

Now tell me do you believe all of this is true?

Aight, let me answer you calmly and respectfully, at least one of us will have respect for the other: I didn't say an ADC shouldn't have these things, what I mean is that an ADC shouldn't have ALL THESE THINGS TOGETHER. Ofc Vayne and Twitch have stealth, but they dont have other things, twitch doesn't have mobility, vayne doesn't have a shield. Also there are huge differences between Vayne and KaiSa:

  • Vayne has stealth on her ultimate which has a long CD (70s) 1s duration. Kai'Sa has stealth on her E (14s CD, 0.5s duration). Here we can start to see why Vayne is balanced and Kai'Sa isn't.
  • Vayne has a jump on her Q, a JUMP. Kai'Sa has a TP on her ultimate, an instant TP which u can't stop by hooking or anything, you CAN ACTUALLY hook Vayne jump.

What me and a huge huge amount of people are saying is that Kai'Sa is a... sort of OVERLOADED AND BETTER VERSION OF VAYNE.

Of couse an adc can have mobility, or stealth, or a shield, or poke, or attack speed buff, or movement speed buff BUT NOT EVERYTHING, NOT ALL OF THAT. Vayne and twitch of course they are adc's and ofc they are not OP because they don't have ALL THAT THINGS, while Kai'Sa does.

Another thing i'm gonna to tell you before going to deal with my life is that the authority to say what an adc should or souldn't have was given by me in the moment i was born because EVERYONE CAN EXPRESS THEIR OPINION WHILE SHOWING RESPECT FOR THE OTHERS, thing that u clearly don't know how to do. We all have our right to express opinions, even you, but you should first respect other people's opinions and not talk to me in that madness state.

Also, lets talk about Master Yi: He has: -Movespeed buff -Attack speed buff -Mobility (Q) (which btw is not immunity, that's more accurate for Fizz's E) to a target, not wherever. -Damage reduction and healing -True damage

Kai'Sa has: -Movespeed buff (E) -Attack speed buff (after the invisibility) -Mobility (R) which is a TP wherever she pleases, not to a target. -Shield (R) -Poke (W and Q) -Burst (passive) -Stealth (E)

Yeah, u annoyed by Master Yi? Who has half the resources than Kai'Sa? Well, it's your opinion, which i don't agree on, but still, a valid opinion. But you should be able to see that Kai'Sa is overloaded. None ADC has all that resources, NOT EVEN ONE, but her.

Kai Sa specifically has a teleport to a target marked with her passive,wtf are you even talking about her teleporting anywhere.

Please make a post saying Vayne is not op and see the reaction from the boards community, I dare you. Also as a Vayne player i'd say Vayne is a much better solo q adc than kai sa and much harder to pin down and kill nevermind much better at dpsing, especially tanks due to true damage.

Ive seen the same pattern for years now on the boards, whenever an adc is strong enough that you actually have to put a little effort to kill him people go nuts, nevermind that they are still much easier to kill than basically all mid,jungle and top laners, people that started playing in season 5 kind of got used to the idea that adc=free gold and the outrage is similar as if soraka was suddenly able to 1v1 a toplaner.

A fed zed or akali go on a 30/3 rampage and no one bats an eye, a fed adc with a good support and tank carries the game and everyone loses their mind.

Also you might not think that all adcs shouldnt have mobility but ive seen upvoted posts over the years that suggested everything from 0 mobilty through no lifesteal to crits dealing 150% dmg with Infinity edge.

Sometimes all at once, how can I possibly believe anything else than that people just like them when they are free gold. Hell the other day someone tried to convince me that cait can three shot a full tank poppy if she lands on a trap and then uses E. People should really try the class out first, especially the immobile ones and then talk about it

I'd rather see Kaisa than Vayne. Both on my team or the enemy.
