Am I the only one who thinks "Dodge or die" counterplay isn't that fun to deal with?

Cassiopeia , Blitzcrank ,Nidalee , All of which just happen to be some of my least favorite champions to play against. I just don't like the idea of "DODGE THE SKILLSHOT OR YOU'RE FUCKED"

I don't know why you are getting downvoted, because its honestly true - most of the worst champions to play against are the ones with "dodge or die" spells. Lux hits you with a Q and you're forced to eat a 1000 damage ultimate. Nidalee hits a spear and you are forced to stay 800 range from her (1200 if she has flash up) or die. Blitz or Thresh lands a hook and instantly gets both your summoner spells, if not your life. Ahri hits charm? Dead. Morg hits Q? Dead. Leona presses E in your general direction? Dead. Its honestly sad that so many champions like this exist in the game, and that when they take the time to rework them they don't remove it (Cass, Nid).

Nidalee will be bullshit no matter what, her kit was, is, and looks like will be, antifun.

Blitz, honestly I can't lane against him, but I don't think he's that much of a problem, if he misses it he's also useless, there are better supports currently.

And Cassio is pretty OP currently, she's getting some PBE nerfs thankfully.

Eh, it's better then Sona/Vlad's if I'm near you and I press this button it hits you! Dumb, at least with skillshots there's some form of actually using your brain.

which is made up for by the fact that both are short ranged, Sona dies if you sneeze on her and Vlad has zero CC.

I could say that Talon has no cc, but he'll still lose against Vladimir :/

Thresh This fucker's basically a blitz who can do a little more, like displace with a long line and give every on his team a free dash to him with infinite range Eye twitch, only counter to that is his teammates' own stupidity.

Somehow I thought the thread was going to be about being forced to dodge or being extremely unlikely to win, due to champions who hard-counter others.

Meanwhile Katarina kills you in 1 secs without any skillshots.

I personally kind of like it. I feel like a god whenever I juke a nid spear or a thresh hook.

And then you lose half your health when you get hit by nid spear and lose half your health and you want to throw your computer out the fucking window And I also forgot to touch on how it isn't that satisfying of a method of counterplay, for most players anyway, I don't know why you would get such a hard-on for walking left or right
