My roommate was arguing with me about somethign

We ace them, we're taking down towers and inhibs

they are coming up in 10

What do you take down, nexus towers to "backdoor" (his words) the nexus or a free inhibitor?

Is it too situational or would the answer be definitely one or the other?

I think it's very situational. I think an ok rule of thumb is that if you're winning anyway, take the inhib and grind the game out, if you're trying to stage a comeback, give yourself a path to their nexus.

I really really really feel like Nidalee beats Kennen. She's not Melee, so you don't auto-win for picking Kennen. She has good enough range to trade attacks and Spear for Shuriken and then just simply outlasts you with heals. It's not like she's going to kill you most of the time or anything but I think she actually has the ability to trade hits with Kennen quite well and when you can trade, the person with the spammable heal wins.


if you max shuriken first (I follow Salce on this) I'm pretty sure Kennen can just play passive and never get forced out of the lane. You can last hit from 1000 range.

ok, so you never get forced off the lane, but in the meantime Nidalee can last hit everything, whereas you're left doing pretty awkward last hits which will invariably give her a CS lead. Again, it's not that I think she trashes Kennen or anything, just that she wins the lane.

and yea, I imagine the fucking 700 range, non-skillshot poke works Kennen over.

Kennen is clearly UP

here's how to fix.

Make his ult hit all targets in the area on each tick.
Remove the 3 hit/target cap on his ult
Make Lightning Rush castable while disabled.
Make Lightning Rush remove all negative debuffs when cast
Make Lightning Rush make Kennen immune to slows for the duration
Add a Healing component to Lightning rush that heals Kennen and all Allies he passes through for 80/130/180/230/280 + (1.5)

Character is now perfectly balanced!

I've lost to Kennen once and that was some random in normal queue, I even beat Salce's Kennen lol.
Nid wins pretty much every matchup.

Not sure if this is correct, but I would imagine Kennen needs to get to level 6, ult nidalee right as he blings 6, and then keep the pressure on her when her health is low. Cougar form doesn't really do anything to Kennen.

Even if Kennen goes W > Q and is aggressive in countering your Q with autoattacks?

Actually when Kennen balls into me I just attack back. SaintVicious tried that shit against me and he even ulted at level 6 and I just killed him with autoattacks, it was pretty funny.

balling into people to harass is awful. if you're ballin' at someone, you damn well better kill them.

EDIT: I mean, Kass just backs off after he Qs, you run into his creeps to get 1 auto-attack to trade with his big single target nuke and then eat creep agro as you back off. How is this a good idea?
