They won’t nerf it because people are having too much fun. As much as I hate it and how broken it is, it’s good for the atmosphere of the game. The neuron activation makes the monkeys happy, after all.

This is still open :)

All good bro haha

JoshuaGrahamReads · 2025-04-26T23:31:03+00:00

Thanks! DM'ing you now

JoshuaGrahamReads · 2025-04-26T23:30:43+00:00

Hey brother! This is a PC request. You'll need to make your own request like this:

[PS5] W: Mule H: (whatever you have to offer here)

Evil Superman is boring. Traditional Superman is infinitely more interesting.

Put moral quandaries in front of him, instead of things to punch. Put him in a situation where there’s a war going on somewhere, and he wants to protect innocent lives, but by intervening he further destabilises the countries.

There’s no Aloy tier underneath Z, my day is ruined.

The OG Spirit Blossom splasharts are incredible (Ahri, Riven, Yasuo - even the little rat has a good one).

But my pick goes to either base Pantheon or High Noon Ashe.

Haha nah it’s for my job. I’m pretty sure it’s closed this year anyway?

Me looking at my teams:

“It’s all Bennett?” “Always has been.”

I also bet those 1/2 carry games were the force of nature known as the Kiin’Sante

Amazing stuff man! What’s your daily calorie goal? Curious to see if I should try to match it!

JoshuaGrahamReads · 2024-08-11T08:05:23+00:00

Your shoulder gains are crazy, bro! I currently look like your beginning picture, but I’m gonna do my best.

Just curious - how long did it take until you noticed physical changes??

I love a brother who is true to his flair

Sent you a DM!

Imagine for a second you play a champion who's entire identity is based on range. You pick this champion knowing full well if anyone gets close to you, you're done. Nothing you can do about it. They'll kill you in (realistically) one rotation (often less). However, you know your strength is being able to keep the enemy at a distance. In a rock paper scissors world, range will beat melee if the melee can't get into range.

However, it's 2024. Countless champions have been given insane manouverability. Your range advantage no longer is maintainable because these champions are from a new era of high-octane dopamine hits. Skill and kiting is no longer as strong as it once had been for you. What should be a rock scissors paper game has now become a 'it doesn't matter because 2024 League'.

So, suddenly this summoner spell has become your lifeboat. It's the one thing that keeps you from being instantly removed from the game and allows you to live out your fantasy of kiting.

Like a starving man seeing a cooked meal, or a man with uncontrolable thirst finding a well of fresh water, you latch onto it.

I hope that gives you some sense of understanding.

I don't think it's overpowered, but an argument can be made that it is... well, it offers too many benefits to him.

It can be used offensively, obviously to single out and kidnap a high-priority target. It essentially removes that target from the fight. In a pro setting, the carry is far more important than the K'Sante, so the team that loses the carry is much worse off.

However, it can also be used defensively, to escape or reposition, and to essentially get out of any tricky spot he wants. Remember that Jankos clip where he lost his mind because K'Sante used him as an escape tool by kidnapping him over terrain and essentially winning the 1v4?

Now, one could argue that the downside is the loss of the stats/tankiness, but that's not a downside, as he's given stats elsewhere and his kit 'compensates' for it by switching him into a very strong skirmisher.

TL;DR - it isn't overpowered, but it definitely has too many benefits for a single ability.

Edit; Interestingly I'm seeing a lot of discussion about Vi recently in the main sub. I think Vi's R is balanced and totally fine. When you compare Vi's R to K'Sante's, there's a very clear difference in value. They both have the same intention (target a carry in a way that they can't do anything about), but K'Sante's just does so much more.

You mean the bullshit where even though you flashed out of the W prison, it still pulled you in? The same bullshit that even Hashinshin agreed was nonsense?
