People who complain about unique abilities.

Karthus Oh, I can ult every enemy on the map. "Broken". Katarina Oh, people are dying around me, better have less cooldown so I can clean up. "Broken". Aatrox Anivia Their passives are revives. "Broken". Annie Her passive stun mixed with her ult. "Broken and OP". People who complain about peoples abilities are probably my second most annoying type of troll, what is wrong with have diversity and different play styles into the game. Sorry I don't play Call of Duty and we all have the same FAMAS with the same red dot sight and we all do the same damage.

Annie OP, it's personal hate in this one.

They are just crying, ignore them,

As annoying as she is, Annie does have a few counters. Champions with strong ranged waveclear Ahri Xerath Brand can force the minion wave to her tower, causing annie to have to choose between letting go of her stun or miss out on CS with her relatively weak autoattack.

item 3060 Though nobody ever seems to remember it.

I'm confused, what exactly does it do for Annie mid? Building it early you lose damage(and possibly tankiness from RoA), building it late isn't that useful on her. And it no longer gives a minion aura

Ariel the Cruel1 votes

You use it against her. The promoted minion is immune to magic damage. And her AA's are crap. It also offers a good chunk of AP and some MR.

Late game, it helps to passively push lanes. Not that useful without a well coordinated team - but still good.

Their cries still get heroes nerfed. And because crying is all that those people can do, they just find a new target to cry about and beg Riot for nerfs .

There are unique abilities that are really unhealthy for the game experience.

An ability shouldn't just exist because it's unique, it needs to add healthy gameplay.

I wouldn't categorise any of the abilities that you've listed as falling into this category, though.

As a Volibear main, I get flamed at by my enemies about my passive about 75% of games.

Spacesuit Spiff2 votes

That's hilarious. First, that's where a lot of his power budget is. Second, replace the average champ's passive with Volis. We get some terrors, but for the most part that would just break the kits.

I just find it obnoxious, not broken

Karthus is fine Katarina is terrible champion design. You'd think that by now Riot would realize that reset mechanics can never be balanced. Perhaps if she got resets just for kills it would be fine, but the fact that she gets the same resets for assists makes her complete cancer Annie having a stun, and also being able to 100-0 somebody during the duration of that stun, should not exist in league.

Only Play Darius2 votes

I agree with you on Annie, even though that usually only happens when the little girl is fed.

Reminds me of release RekSai, even without being fed, she would land her knockup and kill you before you hit the ground.

Ariel the Cruel1 votes

Her Lee Sin level base damage and scaling really didn't help when you add in that she could do true damage.

SouL1ess1 votes

That's why you have Leblanc and Zed, who 100-0's you but has no hard CC. Balanced.

Certainly much more balanced than 100-0 with hard cc.

But its okay for Lissandra to do that? Funny, Liss has two point and click stuns that dont need to be charged up, but Annie needs nerfs. Better yet, lets just fking nerf irelia already.

Troy2426215 votes

Legitimate claims about poor design are perfectly fine and dismissing them by saying that uniqueness supersedes game health is an abysmal prospect. They should coexist because they are not mutually exclusive. You can have a unique and healthy champion.

The classic "Champion X would KILL to have Ability Y on their kit!" argument.

Why, yes, Katarina would love Ryze's passive. That's why she has her passive, and Ryze has his.

Zac has a revive passive also. item 3070 Zac item 3070

Unless someone teleports to a blob, making it untargetable.

At this point, I don't even care if I'm being gullible. I've gotta try this.

junglerboy162 votes

People considered Zac bottom of the barrel trash tier at the start of preseason because if he got killed his passive got countered by a single ~800 gold item and a 60 second cooldown summoner spell.

Athenes Lulu3 votes

Nerf Lulu please, she can peel from most assassins with her stupid ult + polymorph, omg!

Oh come on, this is the kind of shit you see from supports, this should NOT be new...

JustMyBassCannon2 votes

Isn't the FAMAS considered overpowered in Call of Duty?

junglerboy162 votes

Never played CoD (I try to avoid that kind of recycled FPS Junk) But a FAMAS is still an awesome weapon in its own right.

P.S. I know somebody is going to try and make a pun about "shots fired" so I thought I might as well jump the gun on that (double self pun for the win!).

10/10 shots fired.

Resets are a broken mechanic on a heavy aoe character, it's far too punishing for the enemy and far too forgiving for the one using it. Remember when Master Yi had resets on his ult and he was able to be built in a way that made him do heavy aoe magic damage? Removed. Katarina? Nah she's fine.

GaleWinUnleashed2 votes

Yi did offer a nearly uninterrupted window of invincibility while dealing his damage, though. That was a problem.

Katarina has a long range blink that provides damage reduction, it's only slightly worse.

Now when complaining about team comps, that is a complement.

Jungle: Amumu Mid: Annie Support: Sona So much perma-stun.

Ariel the Cruel2 votes

I can top that. My team in Yolo Queue got a 4v5 ace once.

Surprise Amumu ult -> Leona ult -> Zyra ult -> Yasuo ult. Yas got a quadra. Zyra's plants finished off the tank. (Our Cait was off split pushing.)

Fastest and most 1-sided team fight ever.

my last cat win was me on kat and jungle amumu 1st pick (who asked me to pick kat), their ults are so amazing together...

Ariel the Cruel1 votes

Not to disagree. But if they have ranged hard CC (Hi Ahri), they can still disrupt Kat's ult. Amumu's ult only stops movement and AA's.

I can do one better than even THAT! My second game with Cinderhulk, I got a Penta in a 3v5 with Amumu! http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1758118644/221825260?tab=overview

Penta AND a dragon. Looks like I'm beat.

Though my team didn't rely on an overtuned item! Um... Ya. We'll go with that excuse...

Spacesuit Spiff1 votes

Here's the thing: they imagine what that ability would be like if it were added to their main, and ofc it's broken. Blitz seems broken AF if you imagine his Q added to some other champion, but what people don't get is that they have that skill because they don't also have whatever else some other champion has.

KaisadiIIa2 votes

I had a Zed long time ago that was arguing to me that insta-tibbers was too OP, and that was really unfair that Zed had not an insta-stun too, if "that stun is not OP". I was like: "ok, the day they add two dashes to Annie I will agree with you."

Unique =/= Good

A sandwich made of asphalt and pigeons would be unique, but I wouldn't consider that a good sandwich.

A champion who couldn't take damage would be unique, but I wouldn't consider that a good champion.

People do complain a lot, but complaining about people complaining doesn't solve shit.

SantanaTheSlick 1 votes

eh i would say gnar mega form is kinda good but i mean if gnar could willingly turn in and out of his ult he would be a pretty stupid champion and would be banned like 90 percent of the time
