Just Remove Knockups From the Game

Seriously. All this uncounterable AoE hard CC is getting obnoxious. Turn every single Knockup into a stun and the game will be far healthier for the change. I would really like Tenacity to be meaningful, thanks.

Yes, back when knock ups were rare it was fine for them to not be affected by tenacity/cleanse/QSS etc.

Now that everyone and their mother gets these, it's time to turn them into stuns (they should still look like knockups but affected by tenacity and cleanse)

Back in the day, I think most/all knock-ups and knock-backs had stuns attached, were stuns or were short duration. Long list incoming:

Alistar had a significant stun duration after pulverize. Blitzcrank pull stuns people. Darius Draven Hecarim Jayce are short-duration. Gragas is a stun. Maokai is sort of short? The slow is huge really. Nami is deceptive, her Aqua prison is a stun that puts people airborne. Nautilus has a stun attached. Poppy has a stun attached. Rammus Sejuani are quite short. Riven is quite short, usually followed up by ki burst. Shyvana is her ultimate, can be interrupted and doesn't drag people all the way. Sion Q is valid. Sion ult stuns people. Syndra stuns people or she missed you. Thresh knocks you back, but the duration of the displacement is once again quite short. The slow may make it feel longer. Tristana Volibear goes quite fast. Trundle is hardly mentionable in the knock-up department. He can do it. Zac Zac has a slow attached again, quite short knock-up.
