What do they do to nerf the most broken champ in the game? -5 ms and -5 dmg

Well considering that champion maxes E first, -5 damage to W is pretty decent nerf early game. Also Janna scales with movement speed so it didnt only nerf her movement speed, but her W passive too meaning they are nerfing her passive too. Combine that with nerfs to mana and support items during mid year update, its gonna be pretty decent nerfs.

oh yeah the -5 dmg is just gonna cripple her whole kit

Nerfs arent supposed to cripple. Just to bring power down a bit.

this isnt going to affect janna at all

Of course its gonna affect her. Reducing her base move speed is direct nerf to all % increase move speed she builds, to both her passive and her W passive. Nerfing W damage is significant early game nerf considerign she doesnt max W until lvl 10. Its not gonna gut her and make her non viable, but it will make her weaker especially on laning phase. She has lowest base movement speed in game and it got even lower now.

She is incredibly broken, but I think that its more subjective to say what champion is broken.

i mean i would rather play against something with shields and etc than get killed in 0,5 sec without anything

Did you forget she was 54% winrate since S1?

and u really think winrate = broken champ? och pls, there is so many more unbalanced champions, especially assasins. btw thresh q is still bugged and can hook you even when this shouldn't hit you. Many people hate playing vs janna, lulu, soraka cause they are one of the few counters for assassins.

WInrate since season one kid.

This isn't just for an entire season. It's for YEARS. Since the** release** of LEAGUE.

Win rate in solo queue primarily. She does well in competitive, but not as well. Main reason is because she's an anti-engage champion and most unorganized teams play heavy engage. She's not broken, she's designed to be a niche pick in a game where that niche has always been strong.

Win rate means absolutely nothing without context.

Thank you for mentioning this. This has always been my thought on why she has a high win rate in solo also. It always seemed kinda silly that people complain about something because they picked things weak into it.

Safety isn't the same as oppressive. I'd rather play against a safe opponent than one that snowballs uncontrollably against my team.

I don't think you understand how supports work and how they snowball your team.

Is that why the higher you go in rank, the higher her win rate?

Oh really? Then explain how you think it works.

I'm not sidewinder, they won't get the reply you posted under my comment. But I'll respond anyways because I have a reasonable response.

Yes actually, because that's still solo queue. Also the higher you go up in ranked the more coordinated people are and the better they will be at executing engage comps, thus Janna becomes even more useful then.

If you read what they said, they stated the higher you go, the harder it is for her. That is the COMPLETE opposite of what was researched AND what you said.

I won't give you the respect of responding to your first comment because you not only failed to read what they said, but what I said as well.

No they stated that in competitive she doesn't do as well. As in tournament play. Unorganized play refers to solo-queue no matter where on the ladder you're talking about.

Ok, bye Mr. Arrogant.

My main issue is with kayn ... irelia slowly getting there but still needs work ... anyways my issue with kayn is his rhaast or shadow form are really really strong ... a massive spike in fact but the cost of that was the part before the transformation he was quite weak which meant his early game was weak to invades etc however with his recent change hes hitting bliue way too soon now and i say blue just simply because thats the best way to go now ..... because he can get blue so fast and snowball very easily with it ... and im sure we all know how furiating it is to play vs a snowballing blue kayn... just speeding at high speeds through walls and youre dead... red kayn now just doesnt feel neccessary when you can use blue to snowball so easily now that you get it so quickly... What i find even more annoying was the reason behind the buff .... "He wasnt being played so much" well better buff the other champs that dont get played so often if thats the reason im getting ...

Janna got gutted and is badly in need of a revert or some compensation buffs.

She is no longer a viable champion anymore and is pretty much a auto-loss.

OP isn't wrong, boards just have too many salty Janna mains that think it's okay that she invalidates practically every fighter and assassin.
