Kata nerfs are going in a wrong direction

BobbyCarHaterX··1 votes·1,042 views

Katarina Base HP reduced to 510 from 560 HP growth per level increased to 83 from 80 Base HP regen per second reduced to .9 from 1.5748

Its a nice nerf to her earlygame, since its very safe. But she can still outload her full, unavoidable dmg on you from her q w and e.

If a mage or adc gets into 700 range of her, she can just shampoo on them, aswell surely hit her q and w for around 500 dmg without counterplay. After that she can just ult + ignite for an easy kill.

Instead of nerfing her basesstats, do something about kit.

I think this nerf is going to put her where she needs to be. First and foremost, it's fairly easy to counter Kat in teamfights with crowd control effects. That tends to go away when she gets fed early and her burst/kill potential skyrockets into mid game.

This nerf will ensure that that doesn't happen quite as much.

Also, I disagree about the lack of counterplay in her 'combo' ... yea, she can frontload damage onto a target, but it comes with some solid risks involved for herself.

Her problem is she lacks counterplay / reaction time. This does nothing to fix that.

She doesn't Shunpo on you, if she does you should be able to truck her or at least win the trade with auto-attacks alone.

The annoying part is that she has more pots than you and can poke you for free

I like how I have to backup 8secs in lane against Fiora if her mark points towards her
