Well, they are right.. she doesn't right :D but I think I know what you mean and it's mostly because the 2 most famous Kat, at least in the western scene (Scarra and Tiensi) both said that it's a nerf.

ok thank you for the clarification guys. A while ago I also thought Kat has good laneing but like all the recent kats i've seen got shit on and I almost never had problems against her, especially lategame, so I thought ppl just had to get used to Kat being played more often and now she sucks. obv this is not the case and I happen to face bad kat players (especially Kat firstpickers).

I still think if you have a ranged ap carry you will outscale kat lategame if you get your core items wether she is good or bad in laneing now. she is still a close range clean-up champ and provides no utility. other ap carries deal tons of damage when the fight starts and before that. kat relies completely on very good initiation or someone getting caught. I even think leblanc is better at that stage because her damage comes in a second, is less counterable and safer for her as well and she has better ratios and she's considered a shitty lategamer.

Shit's lagging for me. I have 3 other streams open which are perfectly fine, it's just this one. Any tips?

In what situations do you really "need" range on your AP late game? Your AD is there to be your main range damage dealer, most (not all) ranged APs fall off later on as it is. Kat's late is good for diving and forcing out the enemy AD unless he has really sick peels/protects.

To be precise: Kat's lvl 1-3 is pretty damn bad. Starting at 4-5 she really picks up the pace tough.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Yeah, let's give Anivia 200 range once the game hits late, I mean she doesn't needs range when you've got an AD carry, right?
Poke, initiation range, clearing is very important.

Well, of course it depends from champ to champ. But the idea that a ranged AP will always outscale a melee AP like Kat late game is slightly... incorrect in my book.

Since we're on Kat discussion, how do you beat Cho mid as Kat? I've played the matchup the other way and it seems like you can either max E and shove waves in her face so she never roams, or max W and just 1shot her better than she can 1shot you.

Kat free week, I had a blind pick Kat game vs Cho mid. We won anyways because her teamfighting resets are OP and Cho didn't save his CC but laning was just me being sad and trying to farm under tower.

alot of AP carries with significant range can deal tons of damage to the frontline without taking any and have utility themselves instead of relieing on other champions to bring utility in. the ad carry often cannot deal enough damage to survive full-hp bruisers and assassins. the ap carries' job in 5on5 teamfights is to soften up the other team with poke/aoe and threaten important targets with disables and burst. kat doesn't do that since she is an assassin, so she neither can initate nor poke (well ok she pokes a little) and on top of that she is shut down even harder by disables&mobility than most other assassins because she has a channeling ult. I don't think anyone would disagree on that she is one of the worst lategame mids. I have seen alot of ap carries come back and do useful stuff after strugling during early- to midgame. I haven't seen a kat doing anything similar yet.

Cho counters or goes even with most mids in general due to his op scream and great pushing ability. Hes also pretty tanky with lots of sustain so he's hard to harass out of lane. The biggest issue with cho is that he has to press his midgame advantage cause he will get outscaled damage-wise and become a (pretty darn good) cc bot.

Her lategame is tremendous.... It's also about team comp as well. If you got malphite mumu on your team, as you're kat. You're probably end up shitting all over the enemy team. To say Kat is weak lategame compared to other AP mids is a bit of a hyperbole.

Alternate doing quite well against M5... or is just M5 mispositioning? It's too laggy for me so see the movements. x_x

i have a friend that i play with who basically plays for fun and does nutty builds like rush frozen mallet on MF or something, and when i play normals with him i play people in like the 800-1000 ELO range. it's fun playing with him because we just spam the chat with random crap that doesn't make sense like "you only beat me because i didn't pick zangief" or when we die "HE DOESN'T LIKE GEORGE MICHAELS. BOOOO." plus i get to do nutty builds like 5BT riven.

anyway, playing at this skill level you meet so many interesting people who are quick to blame and are all generally terrible, it's so funny. for example, we had a ziggs / darius top against a solo lee sin, and lee sin went 9/0. darius blames the lane on ziggs because "he chose a bad character" and "he wouldn't let me solo." lol what? we lost that game because our vayne chased into a bush with two people in what was probably the most obvious bait i've ever seen. this vayne also said "guys buy wards. if we don't buy wards we can't win."

in my second game i racked up a ton of kills as jungler because the other team would just push the tower and i as riven jungle would murder them. their bot lane was super awful, with ez/twitch at like 0/7 - 2/10, and the ez was telling us in allchat to report twitch for feeding, lol.

my favorite is when they blame their team for losing. like they'll get caught solo in the jungle and they get destroyed. "omg this team sucks." even if i lose, the game is so amusing just listening to them complain about things that aren't really the problem on why we lost, while in the background my friend and I are quoting street fighter and random inside jokes in allchat.
