So people don't make rage posts at Riot because they lost a game due to lag. Normal Elo 2serious.

Yeah she only has a snare, a slow+ blink and the flash and exhaust, how will she manage? her escape meh against akali because its so short and so are her traps. flash and exhaust is standard on every ad carry. cait is one of the ad carries that has a strong early game but a weak raw dps lategame compared to kog/trist/corki/vayne. kog isnt stellar either against assassins though. Every ad carry who can dish out a shitton of dps in a short period of time is better than cait against assassins considering you get some disables out of your support/tank. Assassins are ideally bursted down by your casters while your ranged DPS tries to survive. Cait has a great skill set for this with a snare and slow that help lock down the assassin. If even the ranged DPS could 1v1 assassins nobody would play them.
you just explain how the fight should go down but that still makes cait one of the weaker AD carries against assassins compared to those who can dish out alot of damage in a short period of time or have bigger jumps.

What's the point of compensation mode if they're just gonna disable ranked?
If my team manages to win our first round of legoleague (highly unlikely) we're playing Navis team ^_^

So much lag in games right now I'm the only of the team who managed to pick a champ before the end of the countdown. Guess I'll skip for now.

She has been the same for the whole time i play LoL. dominion, she's pretty riddicolous not like hotshotgg got chars nerfed :D Its pretty damn crazy that people think she is Op she is only OP if you don't get detection and there are on hit things that give detection. Only getting detection costs 400 gold. And someone like akali is good at killing high priority targets. Like someone with detection. So she inherently counters the thing that "counters" her.

She's had shitty design for ages. The only reason she hasn't had more whining is because so few people play her in SR. She gets FAR too much healing from gunblade, triple ult lunge is full-on retarded, and gaining additional stacks per kill or assist is even more retarded. She's the epitome of hypercarry that can snowball to the point of supermaning an entire team. Riot has the misguided notion that this absurd damage + mobility is somehow necessary for assassins in LoL.
All that said: Talon is 2x worse than Akali. If he doesn't get nerfed soon, I'm going to have to take a trip down to Riot and put my slap-a-bitch gloves on.

so theres a champ that carries hard but is countered by cheap items, coordination and counterpicks. pretty op imo...

Tell me again what item lets you disengage from Akali 3 times? Or stops talon from 100-0ing a carry in one combo?
|
IMO revolver needs a nerf more than akali. Its that shit thats broken.
Akali feeds from revolver because it makes her already too good defense (invisibility) better (superduper lifesteal). I think that they need to nerf revolver cost and heal amount and have it only heal against champions, then go back and look at akali.

Revolver is fine, it's gunblade that does too much.

Not building glass cannon? His ratios are pretty absurd, but if you aren't stacking extra defense when you're dying to assassins you only have yourself to blame. When you're dead you do 0 DPS.
If you have a team that is coordinated enough to cc it's a whole different story of course.

I thought we figured out a long time ago that Spellvamp and Lifesteal are problematic stats.

problem is if akali or talon doesnt get at least 1 kill in lane then they are useless POS that make the game 4v5 when teamfights start as they both die instantly as soon as they engage.
so I dont know how much you can really nerf them, more like buff retards.

Building defense isn't much of an option for some champions. Plenty of casters serve literally no purpose if they don't pour the vast majority of their gold into offensive items.

LOL crying about akali ok. There are certain team comps that shut down akali even if she gets fed. Also people are too lazy to buy vision wards.

Any assassin can easily pick up kills in the later game without having gotten a kill in lane phase. You can easily get kills forcing dragons, as well. Moreover, a champ like Talon can snowball out of control with just 1-2 early kills.

Good luck playing a support, as well. That was a nice oracles you had there.

A revolver is 1200 for infinite sustain on champs that already have a problem with sustain due to their kits- kennen, akali, morde. Its the old locket argument. Is it broken on everyone? No. Is it broken on a few champions? Yes. Does that mean it needs to be fixed? Yarp.
