"Make up a quote and everyone will believe it" - Albert Einstein

Except... nobody said that... To my knowledge, nobody has ever said that. Ever. You made up a quote to suit your beliefs.

Typically, mage's damage comes in rotations. They don't have a consistently high damage output (Exceptions are Cass, Azir, Kayle and maybe Ekko). They are limited by cooldowns. As such, to get respectable damage off in a fight they need a chance to get more than one rotation off. Enter slightly better survivability.

Your argument also completely ignores the many, many AD champions that have no way of getting out. Probably more than AP champions given how many of them are ranged.

? thats my point. ad itemization is shit for immobile ads while aps get the best of it.

For some reason I switched arguments at the end there. Don't hurt me, I'm tired.

I'd imagine they're the exception, not the rule.

Point being that the majority of AP champions have 2 options when caught out of position, try to CC the enemy and run, or stand and fight.

Ahri has high costs to her mobility (especially as q levels up, and at least her ult actually costs 100 mana) and isnt even naturally fast.

late game is uncatchable and does retarded damage with the balanced item cancers echo.

Wait. I'm completely confused. Are you saying that AP itemization is inherently better than AD itemization? That has been proven time and time again to be untrue. AD/AP balance is almost equal. AP mages don't make it into ADC position - they're never that overbearing. ADCs never make it into mid - they're not overbearing either.

I don't even know what you're trying to say with this post. AD/AP itemization is unbalanced? Bullcrap.

ap itemization is cancer. you get items for every damn thing. there are no items to counter swain or mundo for ads but for aps they have morellos. there are no ad/armor items that actually mean something.

"gee ad itemization is cancer. you get items for every damn thing. there are no items to counter malz or warwick for aps but for ads they have scimitar." It doesn't work like that. And though there aren't AD/Armor items there are AD/Health items for AD bruisers. "gee aps don't have crit how unfair is that for ap champions who want large powerspikes"

IT DOESNT WORK THAT WAY. BOTH SIDES ARE BALANCED.
