Senna is amazing thematically

Her gameplay seems to really mesh well with her animations and equipment, her particle effects are gorgeous, her splash art is amazing. When you're playing her, it really feels like you're carrying that giant ass gun around- you get that feedback from her passive, making her autos feel like they have some weight to them. I obviously don't know how she's going to balance, but from an artistic/thematic perspective, Riot knocked it out of the park on this one.

Well, comparing visuals (which are awesome) and what it actually does, her ult is underwhelming. But, that's what was expected, seeing how Riot made her to be a dedicated support.

Lux ult with a lane wide shield is underwhealming? It's also a true global, not just nexus to t2 turret.

It has a 3 min cd because it had to be a near instant global ability..

It SOUNDS great until you realize that it doesn't do much damage and the shield is barely half of a Lux W. The fact that it's global is its major saving grace.

(Also it's not quite a Lux ult; there is SOME travel time, but it's so little it's barely worth mentioning)

Yeah. It's shields are weak, so is it's damage. But i'm not complaining, i don't need her to be OP

Just played as Senna in ARAM. I have to agree, her kit and theme are amazing and they feel good.

That said, I fully expect a nerf in ARAM. She is crazy powerful with her passive. 21 minute ARAM game, and I could hit the turret and not be targeted due to the range extension.

Yeh, she gets a stack everytime she attacks a champion twice (besides kills, minions and stuff) on a single lane constant fighting plus always getting the minion ones. It was the same as old dark harvest, getting high stacks in a single game from cannon waves (allied cannon also dropped it) plus champions constantly dying.

She is so much fun to play. She's always got something to do in lane, which is a huge plus on a support.

She also feels kinda like Jhin in that every attack feels powerful (even though they're really not cuz, ya know, she's a support).

Her ult feels so satisfying to look at.

Her heal isn't great, but it's great for fighting (since it also does damage) and that root, that root! Its range is great and its damage is insane, and then it ROOTS
