I don't agree with Diana ripping apart Kat. I think both can lose the lane depending on their knowledge of the match up.

QEW is extremely strong vs. Diana becuase the movementspeed from W makes it ridiculously easy to dodge Diana Q. If she tries to hit you with Q before you jump her, just jump over it, QW and get away. Diana is annoying in that she has an easy way to stop your ultimate but as with everything with Kataraina, you have to wait for them to use it before you ult.

QEW and run away dodging the Q. If she does nothing more, you won the trade big. If she pulls you back in when you try to run away you ult. If she runs away from ult you come out ahead. If she stays, you W again after ult and then get away with a very good trade. As long as you dodge the Q there's no way you can lose the trade imo. You're not going to 100-0 her and it is never the goal with Kat in lane, against any champ. The reason she is strong is because you can trade well and get out so easy.

If you headbutt every Q, then yes, you are screwed.


Its not even about hitting Q. All you do is zone her from creep with your presence and if she ever gets near you to w, you e and you AA. That's how you win. Auto attacks makes every trade an advantage for you. Also did I mention that once you hit 6 kat has no way to deal with you?


I'll admit to not having met a Diana that took this approach. Most try to hit you with their Q as an engage. Katarina cannot trade AA with almost any mid champion (Anivia being the exception that I can think of right off the bat). Normally I'd never let a champ AA me (movespeed from W takes you out of range unless they're ranged). I'd be interested to know how Kat trades vs. someone who neglects Q and trades with W, E and AAs.

If Diana pops shield every time Kat gets within shunpo range, I think there'd be a mana problem pretty fast. If she doesn't Kat gets full QEW combo unshielded and tries to run out before AAs land. E to pull back, slowed for 2 secs, land AAs. Kat gets another W and then escapes. Also, Diana's E would be on cd for some of the trades. Liek I said, I don't know how that would trade in sheer numbers but that's how I figure it'd go.

All I have are guesses though

Kat can never shunpo to Diana if she has Q up. I don't think the match is completely unwinnable for Kat but it favors Diana for sure. As Kat you can wait for Diana to farm minions with Q and then jump to her but if jungler is near mid it's risky. If Diana has Q up and you shunpo to Diana you will die.

What kind of Diana's do you play against that miss point blank Qs? Kats W isn't significant enough to let her dodge a Diana Q after you shunpo to her.

when dfg gets nerfed kat will probably fall off again
all of her current strong points, except for wave clear were stronger pre-rework so now i feel like i'm left with a worse version of the same champion that was riding a DFG/flat pen + roaming trend that lead to people recognizing that she wasn't actually terrible way too late :/

Having a third skill that instantly cools down on kill instead of just two is pretty huge imo

Kat's teamfight got WAY better with W rework.

Is it sure DFG will be nerfed? I like that item, the only problem is that it snowball too hard imo, but it's not really good when you are behind.

Well I mean, that's pretty much CLG EU's entire strategy regardless of team comp.

Pretty much, thats why anytime they come on i cut the stream off. They're literally the most fucking boring team to watch play ive ever seen

well when an item snowballs if you make good plays with it, but makes you weaker when you don't then there is no problem with it imo. I actually like how dfg makes the game more active and risky during the midgame and that assassins like kat and eve have seen more play. I don't like getting instagibbed by them either but that is not a reason to nerf dfg at all. Anything that makes ganking more viable is a good thing IMO. If anything I would rather have the item be significantly cheaper but apply a flat damage nuke instead of fully %based so roaming starts even earlyer.

actually if you think about it riot did some good things to make the game more aggressive in the early-midgame: The new junglers have very strong gank kits, dfg fits assassins better, mr runes have been nerfed, mpen runes buffed. there are more aggressive supports like leona and lulu, who have strong base damage but low scaling, sustain has been nerfed over the board.

I like that and I hope the trend goes on a little bit so playing passive champions and farming in general becomes riskier and has to be planned better. If they nerf turret damage and make wards actually cost something then I would be even more happy (especially since I love to play support)

When a single champion put of 104 gets used in over 50% of the games something has to be done. I think the "holy trinity" of AD carries is just too strong early game compared to all the others.

That's hardly the reason.
Draven is pretty much the strongest ad carry early game,yet he doesn't get played as much because corki,ezreal and graves have far far superior mobility.
I doubt they will do much about ezreals damage maybe a tiny nerf, but if they suddenly slam his Q or W it will be a off the mark nerf,what they need to hit is his mobility.

They should either make the CD of his E longer, or reduce the flash range and maybe change abit with his passive (getting full AS stack from passive when you use ult in team fights, is just abit too much).

Let's see:
It gives burst AP carries an extra burst nuke that scales with their AP, easily allowing many of them to 100%-->0% where they couldn't necessarily do so before.
Also gives them a huge amount of CDR, has a decently cheap build path for what it offers, especially considering it begins to pay for itself depending on how long you keep Kage's (not very long usually).

It's too much for too little gold essentially, and the damage is pretty ridiculous.

Hey Guys,
What reds/quints to use on Draven?
atm i roll with pure AD, but would Armorpen be more worth it in the long run?
I could also go with Movement or Lifesteal-Quints, but i don't think that they are that valuable with Draven.
And what Masterie do you prefer with him?

it has a lot more to do with his mobility than anything else
i hope for season 3 they reduce the blink/dash range of everone's skills by like 25 or 50. just a tiny bit, but enough to make it so non-gap-closing champs still have a chance in season 3


about kat - does AP Sion do well against her?

Gonna pull a Man Dinh here.

I feel that if your mechanics are good enough to catch axes with any reliability, the bonus damage from Q/armor pen will make up for not using AD marks. I haven't done the math, but it's probably right.
