No, she isn't even close. In fact she is incredibly weak right now. -Lowest base health (WTF WHY EVEN?) -Terrible laning phase unless the enemy just eats harass -Her stats are extremely weak until she gets too fed out of control -Almost every laner can counter her right now There is just so much that she struggles with and the fact that people think she is broken makes me want to just lose my shit
Zero Skill Tank3 votes? I haven't seen a Kata rant in several years.
shane is good2 votesAny champ can be broken if an experienced player is playing them
ReshiKillim1 votesThere's a few champs with lower base HP than Kat.
Squidward Dab2 votesYea but most of the mid laners with lower base health than Katarina are all ranged, the lowest being Lux. But Katarina is a melee champ with one of the worst laning phases ever and has the lowest base health of all melee assassins which feels a bit unfair
specter4241 votesWhats broken is when nobody picks cc to interrupt her ult and she just facerolls your entire team with an Abyssal Scepter
Jbels1 votesKatarina isn't herself overpowered, but her kit design is toxic in the way that it is far too polarized. Early game is WAY too weak, and fed late game is WAY too strong. They need to find a way to make her a viable early-mid game assassin that falls off in the late game
Vekkna1 votesLike Kassadin, she will always carry a stigma from when she was broken and permaban, even though it's common knowledge that neither one is doing extremely well. I can understand the broken complaint because a lot of people see crazy reset plays and assume it's something she can do reliably, but that's just not the case.
What makes me lose my shit is the people who say she's easy to play just because she has a simple design.
Lugg1 votesShe is OP, until you hard CC her and then she dies.
ActivatingEMP1 votesI used to think she was OP so I got fed up with her and played her to learn counterplay- it turns out she is easy as shit to counterplay. Everyone can out trade her early, and I didn't realize that
