Base damage on a support is still good even if you're not scaling it through items. I'd say her damage comes more from the plants anyway, and this scales with levels, not maxing Q, so... Obviously there's more burst with Q before W, but W first gives moe CDR so more plants too, which helps with zoning, sieging, etc. | ||

Also if Graves can 100-0 Corki in a manfight I guess it doesn't matter how much sustained damage Corki does, but in that case Varus would be a candidate too so... I dunno.

From my experience lvl 1 is good enough to always have at least 1 seed when you need it <but most of the time i have 2 anyway, 1 slowplant and 1 ranged plant. So I take the additional base dmg I get from skilling Q and E. | ||

I am curious why he thinks it's such a good match up, the other night when he brought it up he said it was good for Graves then corrected himself to say it was a counter, so he seems to think it's a great pick for some reason. I think it's cuz he can do everything Corki is suppose to be good at, in a microcosm, except slightly better. He can burst as hard as Corki at level 6, he can shove waves hard, and can tank quite a bit with his passive. But, the TF on Corki is so fucking silly, I don't see it being necessarily being true. Varus might hold true, but getting 3 auto attacks before proccing blight might be a bit harder than, HURRR DURR PRESS Q, W, R on graves. | ||

Graves has short range and has to overextend to harass sometimes. His midgame also isn't as good if he isn't ahead and doesn't offer nearly as much as a corki with triforce. But that's pretty good, considering how the match ups against corki are. At least Graves can farm 1v1 after laning phase is over, which is a lot better than a lot of ADC's in this match up. | ||

He's also kinda meh in 2v1s because of his short range and he's not great for pushing towers. Nonsense, Graves is great for pushing towers in a 2v1 situation. Lots of waveclear/push, and AS buff through E. Now, straight pushing turrets in a 5v5 situation is another question entirely. | ||

I think your hyperbole is overkill in this case. Alistar is a step below popular junglers at the moment, but it's not a very large step. One patch buffing Alistar or nerfing his competition could easily make him competitive (as opposed to viable). In general people tend overestimate the difference between what's currently first pick/ban material and what isn't. | ||

I just look at the simplistic scenario of "what would be different if I had alistar over j4?" Sure, Alistar ganks are about on par with his ganks, maybe a bit better if you blow everything to try and get the kill. Plus if you can somehow get a flash>pulverize>headbutt on a carry or a high valued target, then Alistar is amazing, but I'm simply more afraid of a j4 engaging on me, because he can kill me almost by himself while building full tank, something cow really cannot do. Same goes for Vi really, somewhat for Zac too. | ||

Triforce's buildup has a lot of useless stats for her(mana, AP) and other unfavorable stats(AS, Crit) She also has low base AD, making Sheen charges meh on her. | ||
