Story wise; How physically strong is Cassiopeia?

Dominick Destine·7/21/2016, 10:45:44 PM·2 votes·969 views

In her original , now discarded lore, she was cursed to have a half woman, half serpent body, effectively making her a lamia/gorgon/medusa type creature. However her abilities both magical and physical were seemingly augmented by the process.

Now, I am not one to ask a woman her weight (HE HE HE) but I am pretty damn certain that Serpent Cass is way bulkier than Human Cass, so it stands to reason her direct physical strength was vastly increased.

The question now becomes; How strong is Cassiopeia relative to other champions?

Is she physically stronger than ??? Or is she on the level of who is very physically frail

NOTE: Game-wise I know that the answer to this question is obvious, I'm talking about story.

Her tail is likely quite strong,though it wouldn't surprise me if the more muscular humans would be still strong enough to escape her.

Though her human half likely didn't change that much in terms of strenght.

I'm of the opinion that Cass' tail can easily crush most things through simple constriction, like some Boa on steroids.

She probably can crush stone beneath her tail easily. Snakes have fucking immense muscles compare to their sizes.

Most likely stronger than a natural female of her age. Her tail probably reaches levels of superhuman (though it isn't human) strength.

She probably doesn't use her tail for combat because she isn't fully used to it yet. It's an entirely new set of muscles, it's amazing she's adapting to moving around.

She probably isn't overall stronger than Illaoi or Poppy, but her tail could be tough to break out of if she constricted them.

Though she probably uses poison for a reason (beyond because she can).

Her top half has the same strength as she did before the transformation (though with sharper nails).

Her bottom half is probably comparable to a large boa constrictor in terms of raw strength (perhaps quite a bit stronger, considering how fast she can move).

Im guessing human half of Cass is as strong as a regular woman and her tail is a as strong as a snake of that size (very strong).

So strong you should be building AD on her. She should legit have one of her spells be a physical attack. Shes a damn snake, use that physical advantage.

I guess that her tail is stronger than a human ( Illaoi )... But considering the strengh that Poppy shows in her comic, i doubt that Cass is stronger than Poppy or Shyvana (Dragons > Snakes)

Strong enough to rock a man to his core.

She has such a stony glare.

Petrify the thought of even facing her.

Okay I'm out of puns someone take over.

I think poppy's strength is belied by her size. Poppy carries around a hammer that's about 2x her size, plus she's carrying it with armour on, and i think in terms of raw physical strength of yordles, she's on the stronger side (barring Mega Gnar). But I don't think she's as strong as Illaoi or Shyvana, if only because Illaoi can wrestle with a Kraken-like god and be fine, and Shyvana is half dragon, which i think is just stronger than any serpent we've come across (excluding Baron Nashor)
