Kalista Op? What..?

TacoKing··1 votes·4,476 views

So I've been seing people say Kalista is op and broken.

I don't see the problem.

Every time I verse a Kalista I dominate her (In lane, sometimes other lanes feed or dc you never know)

But maybe that's just because I play Caitlyn.

What's your opinion? Is she op or not? Why?

I checked your match history

There were 4 games in the last 15 days that you played Cait against a Kalista. You were 50% win with the 4.

The stats were :

(K/D then CS)

  1. You 4/10 202 Kalista 10/7 284

  2. You 7/4 150 Kalista 4/8 148

  3. You 8/11 107 Kalista 11/6 210

  4. You 1/12 82 Kalista 5/5 217

You won the second and fourth game. I really didn't think you should win that fourth game.(It seemed like you went cait support in that game tho)

I fail to see how you dominated lane in every game you had as Cait vs Kalista.

Now, did OP down vote this ? lol

I said I always beat her in lane, not the entire game. I have a bad habit of throwing games.

No, I did not down vote this.

You left out the key question here. Is the Kalista duo qued with her support in speak?

Due to the nature of her kit she thrives in coordinated teams which is why you won't see her doing too amazing in solo queue. She is, however, the perfect ADC to play in competitive where people can practice and synergize around her.

Cait kinda bullies out most adc's, idk how kalista's laning phase is. But the problem is her passive from my perspective.

Think the biggest problem with kalista is the fact certain champions (or team comps in some extreme cases) have nothing they can do vs. her.

For example I love playing Olaf, Nocturne, and Shyvana (even J4, she can just auto until she is outside your ult like WTF) but when I see a kalista on the other team no way am i going to pick either of those champs. Kalista easily kites champions that have no gap closer (or if you have a gap closer your only choice is to burst her down, and if u can't she will just hop away), which makes life hell for people who play less mobile champs since you can't do anything vs. her. Landing skill shots on her is quite hard on her.

If there was an item in game that allowed my Olaf, Shyvana, Nasus, & Nocturne to actually fight her it wouldn't be too hard but an adc you can't lock down is fucking scary. Or if she had a limited time like tristana's rapid fire where she gets her hops, then at least certain champions have some kind of opening against her, but atm certain champions have no way of fighting kalista. (Have you seen top lane kalista, holy shit it's the most broken thing ever vs. melee worse than teemo since she actually scales into an monster)

I'm an Top lane/jungle main and I love bruisers who kinda get wrecked by kalista unless you one shot her so yea i might be biased but from my perspective the champion is broken since I have so limited options vs her since she kites and hops away forever.
