They already nerfed Kat recently I promise it totally balanced her out.

What if shunpo's damage reduction was removed? and Force Katarina to build a little tanky in order to get inside an entire enemy team, or force her to be a real assassin and pick off targets one by one or get blown up (which is what should happen already, but it seems like that's not the case).

I typically save one cc in a teamfight when there's a Katarina rather than blow it all at once. As soon as she ults, I knock her up and she dies.

shunpo can do no dmg and have no extra effect and her winrate will still not drop by 1%

Yeah... I really don't get why an "assassin" is allowed to be in a position to regularly get pentakills.

I wanted to say it more passive aggressive like, cause humor is a more fun way to complain, so this is what I came up with:

Bard could get quadras and pentas regularly if every kill/assist reset every non-ult portion of his kit. I'm sure it'd be harder for him though.

No one says it sucks, just that it's not OP. But don't let that get in the way of your circlejerk OP. Shouldn't you be in reddit anyway?

Ward trinkets were a buff to her, and they buffed it. She now has a free escape up just about all the time. This makes her immune to ganks unless you happen to be around when she is ready to kill your mid laner or is roaming.

Man, Here I thought that in the League of Mobility, there would be additional units other than Kat with gap closers, you just showed me! I'd hate to see you play against a Vlad, or an Ezreal, or a Riven, or a Zed, or an Ahri, or a Tristana, or an Aatrox, or an Azir, or a Caitlyn, or a Corki, or an Elise, or a Fizz, or a Gnar, or a Gragas, or a Graves, or an Hecarim, or a J4, or a Jax, or a Kalista, or a Kassadin, or a Kennen, or a Kha'zix, or a Leblanc, or a Lee Sin, or a Lissandra, or a Lucian, or a Nautilus, or a Nidalee, or a Rek'sai, or a Renekton, or a Shaco, or a Shen, or a Tryndamere, or a Vayne, or a Vi, or a Volibear, or a Wukong, or a Zac.

I had no idea Vlad, Naut, Voli, Hec, Elise, Ken, and Vayne could escape at any time over many walls on a basic ability, thank you so much for telling me! Nor did I know all the champions you listed were high damage assassins that came with mobility and resets.

Also, you do know a lot of those champions were nerfed or had changes due to being mobile? And the ones that weren't are complained about because they are mobile coupled with a lot of damage?

Do take what I say out of context though, because I clearly was complaining about just mobility, and not the fact a high damage assassin winning most of her games was too safe. You know, same reasons people complain about Zed and Le Blanc?

actually i dont know about elise but yasuo's e is very effective when used properly, and i would rather take yasuo over kat any day

Kariu Rena1 votes

elise e is one of the best in the game and why would you want a yasuo over kat in your team? Yasuo is like a free loss

SmknWdl1 votes

Yasuo when played correctly has the potential to carry a game. He does have a high skillcap for success however, so a lot of the time you will get a Yasuo that has no idea what he's doing. I believe that yasuo has much more potential than katarina for team fights and such... kat just needs one tad of cc and she can say goodbye to her ult. Also just from a pure 1v1 perspective, yasuo beats kat because when she ults yasuo just windwalls and that's that. Yasuo has a lot more defensive and offensive in his kit, while kat is a pure offensive killer. This gives yasuo a good use in many situations... helping teammates run away, blocking enemy adcs, etc.

I don't think I've ever heard a single person say Shunpo was a bad gapcloser.

go around the katarina thread, you'll see their main giving all kinds of bs to defend her
