What happened to all the people that said Kayle isn’t a champion until level 11?

I think these people finally realized how broken this cancerous piece of bullshit champion is.

S+ on UGG. Tier 1 on OPGG.

Lets see what Kayle has pre level 11.

2 forms of poke or harass. On-hit damage. Free attack speed. Healing. Movement speed. Movement speed towards enemy champions. 20% armor and mr shred. Missing health damage.

After level 6, free waveclear. Double on-hit damage.

She does have a weak early. But her kit gives her too much power late game, meaning that even without gold she's gonna carry past level 11.

They are hitting her base values meaning that putting her behind will be more meaningfull because she'll lack items.

Care how to explain a weak early game champion has such a huge winrate in a meta where late game doesn't exist?

Her "late game" comes as soon as she reaches level 11, regardless of her items, her late game is capped by how much XP she gains, while others are by both XP and gold.

If twitch reaches level 11 but has no gold, he's still useless, Kayle isnt, that's the major difference.

https://champion.gg/champion/Kayle/Top She doesn't even go below a 50% wr at any point in the game.

And that's why she's being nerfed on PBE

You are still going to have people defending her cancerous bullshit stat-check kit by still saying she is not a champion until level 11.

I mean, they're right. Kayle isn't a champion until 6; at best she's a support for when her jungler swings in to gank for her, using her kit to enable them.

The problem is that Kayle's 11 powerspike is **so strong **that it doesn't matter. Being behind isn't enough, she has to be HARDCORE shut down when she reaches 11. And you have to close out before she hits 16, or else she just runs away with the game.
