You've also only managed to get gold 4 which to some is disturbing.. anyways not trying to insult, but in all seriousness she isn't GOD tier, shes strong.. but also not op. I think Ahri is one of the more "healthy" assassin like champions riot has for the game. She has a lot of mobility and pretty fair damage, and shes not 1v5'ing the entire team (cough katarina) Shes a mix between Assassin and Mage, which is something i find very appealing on her. I however, never got all that good with her. But i respect her design a lot more than many others. xD

lol? You're only Gold 1, which isn't much better than Gold 4. Ahri also stopped being an "Assassin" and by Riot's standard is a "Kiting Mage". She's been one of the most picked mids plat+ for ages now while maintaining a fairly high average win rate the entire time.

And what you think plat 3 is much better than Gold 1? i was legit playing vs 5 plat 3s since i was gold 2.. My argument isnt "im better than u i have a higher rank" my argument is if a champion is THAT strong he wouldve made it higher than gold 4.

Look at all those Plat 3 players in your ranked game, you're playing against low gold players as a Gold 1. I also have nearly no soloq games played since I only played one game per month for most of the season to prevent decay, yet I'm Plat 3 despite being placed in Gold while playing against Plat 2~D5 seeing as I skipped divisions due to that fact. So yes, there's a big difference between my high plat opponents and your low gold opponents.

DreadlocksDec 29, 20153 votes

Are you really that dense? u look at 1 game and draw a conclusion around it Lol.. Again, i played consistently vs plat 3 players since gold 2. You can go check my mmr on op.gg if youd like. I think since i droped from 100LP gold 1 to 5LP its about plat 5 now. but quite frankly the website isn't working for a damn. But again what does this have to do with ahri being "God" tier?

It's impossible to "consistently" play against plat 3+ and suddenly have gold 5~ opponents without losing a lot. Playing with or against low mmr plat 5s=/=plat 3+. You also would have been in plat instead of still being gold after over 400 games by the simple fact you would have been skipping divisions while winning a ton of LP while losing nearly no lp.

You're the one who brought up the person's rank as if it had anything to do what he was talking about.

DreadlocksDec 29, 20152 votes

You are absolutely right. I tilted from 100 LP to 5. I said that in my previous posts.. So yeah its very possible the last day i had lower ranked players. But leading up to that point i was also gaining 26-32 LP a win and only losing 8-11 LP. Which was when my MMR was @ plat 3's MMR.

A side point.. Why is it that, gold 4 to gold 1 which is 3 ranks different is considered "not much different" to you, but gold 1 to plat 3, which is also 3 off is like a crap load to you? And why are you fucking interrigating me and my fucking rank? You think ur so fucking good at plat 3 or some shit like some hotshot. Rotfl.

Never did i directly say this guy was shit, i simply stated that his Rank, and his CLAIM that Ahri is "god tier" Dont add up.

I never mentioned my rank being higher than yours until you brought it up, and even if I were silver 5 my point still stands considering I've been using forums/boards long before I was ever plat. I also haven't ever talked about how "good" or "bad" I or anyone else is, it is you who is. Another thing is half my post was about Ahri, now which did you choose to respond to? Oh right, you chose to go on about ranks and lied about having plat 3+ mmr rather than continuing the discussion about how you're wrong about Ahri being an "assassin" or the fact she's dominated pick rate in the mid lane for over a year. _It is odd you would choose to make me responsible for your responses. _

Although, since you choose to continue the rank discussion, simply dropping a part of a division isn't enough to cause you to go down over 1 full tier worth of opponents. If you were ever plat 3 you would be a minimum of plat 5 and not gold after over 400 games. If you knew how to look beyond anything but the silly badge you would know I only won 28 games and lost 15, so 43 total games for a season which is absolutely nothing. There is no point in even bringing up my rank seeing as I haven't even played half the amount of games Riot said to play to get a general idea of what your rank is before you begin grinding, mean while you played more than 4x that.

Playing a strong champion doesn't guarantee you'll climb either, anyone being any rank when discussing champion strengths is an irrelevant factor because climbing through soloq goes beyond simply picking a "strong" champion.

You sound like a woman so ill use the same strategy with you that i use with them to ease my pain.-->** You are right.**

So, responding to most of what you say in a polite fashion without twisting your words makes me a woman? I honestly don't understand the point in calling a man a woman as an insult, it's very disrespectful to think being a woman would be an insult.

Either way, just like ranks, gender is also something irrelevant to talking about how strong Ahri is. :)

Yeah this convo got extremely boring. later bro lol

I don't think his rank is the worst thing about his statement. I think him having more games played on Twich and Vayne as an "Ahri main" should be the biggest red flag.

DreadlocksDec 29, 20153 votes

Lol valid point. Touche Toucheee

JefftiffyDec 29, 20152 votes

Ahri isn't god tier. God tier is somebody like Illaoi where you pick or ban them. Ahri has counter play. Play someone who doesn't have to go near her and has good wave clear or easy to hit CC. Annie , TwistedFate , , Xerath and more do pretty well against her. She doesn't really stop any match ups but she doesn't really lose any either. She's much like Lee Sin. She is very average and once you learn her and her play style its kind of easy to force it to be a skill match up.

BluePolarizerDec 29, 20151 votes

Annie has to go near her.

CorgiParadeDec 29, 20153 votes

Yeah, but Annie can lock her down and burst her down like it's nobody's business.

Ahri hasn't been good since she was gutted as "compensation" for removing DFG. I don't even understand how you came up with such a backwards idea.

That list doesn't put Sona in the bottom tier and ranks her and Nami both above Bard. It's instantly invalidated.

Roll in GrassDec 29, 20151 votes

There's literally a page that explains why they put each champion where.

Pika310Dec 29, 20151 votes

Yet it's common knowledge that Sona is THE weakest support in the game. Bard has seen more professional play than both her and Nami combined, during the time since his release. By way of common sense the list is trash, there's really no 2 ways about it.

Okay, she may be fine now (frustrating as all get-out, but fine), but don't go acting like she always was. After her compensation buffs in 5.2 she was at a 58% winrate with a high pickrate. So she wasn't "gutted," and never has been since that point. She is manageable, but to say she's gutted.... are we even playing the same game?
