I look at Katarina's skills and all 4 of them involve her knives, but...are they like magical knives or something? Shouldn't she be AD champion? I m just curious!

if she was AD she would be able 2 abuse AD based items, take towers well, and such. It be like another riven, just better scaling.

She can be an AP physical damage dealer

ap physical damage dealer? building AP to get AD sounds like a werid trade but she can go full AD and do magic damage with abilities(just not as much)

It would allow her to get obscene amounts of damage via rabadons yet not be able to take towers

please inform me of 1 champion whos whole kit scales on AD yet only does magic damage. (every single ability has 2 scale on AD and do magic damage)

I never said any champions have that kind of kit, why ask me?

Hence why she is ap. you either make her ap weith ap scaling or make her AD with AP scaling or AD with ad scaling lmao. she primarily scales AP so she primarily does magic damage on skills. why would you confuse people and build magic damage items to do physical damage exspecially since ap items scale much harder so shed be the strongest AP/AD damage dealing champion that i know of.

Why do so many of you kids hate on katarina?

Because they like to blow all their CC on the tank and then cry when Kat pops in.

The hate is strong, as i use the dark side of the force and destroy kids with katarina.

AP doesn't mean it's magic.

Much like how Riven is stated to be using a rune/magic blade, yet she scales only with AD.

Different scaling types exist almost exclusively for balance reasons, besides a few very obvious champs.
