Is Riot looking at Katarina?

She is becoming the new Yorick useless and un-played. She doesn't do well against any match up anymore, besides against some mages but i'm guessing that's going to change with the mage update coming up. Are there any changes coming to her? Buffs or even a re-work planned?

They just buffed her two patches ago? You need to realize her laning phase isnt the greatest, but she makes up for it in team fights or with her ability to roam and get kills. You're not meant to 1 v 1 the enemy laner and kill them. Im not saying it cant be done, but your point is to push lane and roam (to keep it simple).

Maybe you dont really understand katarina the way shes intended to be played?

Roaming with Kat isn't easy anymore, any champ with any type of CC or mobility can easily stop her or get away from her, I think the problem is how squishy she is the nerf to base health and health regen shouldn't have happened.

I imagine she'd get looked at in a future assassin group update.

I hope that's soon.

If they're the next update, they'd be at the end of the year.

Her main damage comes from her QEW combo which is really easy to get off without being cc'd. Her ult is there for when the enemy blows all of their cc, this allows her to go in and deal an uncomparable amount of damage. She isn't the strongest, but she certainly isn't weak. She is in the category of niche pick, and that is fine with a lot of people.

Just because someone has lots of counterplay and counters doesn't mean they should be buffed as a result. That sort of thing leads to poor balance. Oh wait, Riot already does that. Well, my friend, keep hoping.
