"NERF Lulu and Soraka BECAUSE THEY COUNTER ASSASSINS IN MID" - gd 2014

you got what you asked for, they were the only mage champions other than Ori that wasn't free kills for assassins post-6 and GD got then nerfed because "muh interaction" as if fizz and zed are interactive when they instagib you and use shadow/trickster to hop away from retaliation while spamming laugh

Not sure I called it overbearing like what this guy said exhaust it helps in preventing them snowballing to hard. At this point think people will get over the "assassin op" thing already.

Mobility allows a player to be more relaxed about positioning as well as jumping in and out of fights. And what would you know, Assassins are defined by high levels of mobility and burst. Utility champs have to be a lot more mindful of their positioning and surroundings. They only have one "Oh Sh*t" button and it's on a long cooldown. Mobility champs typically lose out on a lot of utility, but the safety it offers is considered more than a fair trade.
