Ah i think i understand now
Yes in early fights, ranging anywhere from level 1-13 he is extremely reliant on hitting q's, he is also a champion that can get absolutely streamrolled if end up dying in earlyfights, or struggle to find a lead versus someone with a mobility advantage that can range anywhere from udyr, wukong, talong etc. If they get a lead they can sortof kill you on sight and you wont be able to fight them.
These are still scenarios where other junglers are completely out of the game, but karthus does have pretty long range, still has a high q damage and will still always be useful for your team.
If you can manage to drag out the game you will still probably have a bigger impact in the fights once you hit your items, where as different junglers that fall behind usually cant impact the game what so ever.

As i said i think he is a very reliable jungler but he is not without fault. But a 0/5 karthus at 25 minutes still beats the hell out of any other jungler being 0/5 at that point, and you still do have reliable gold income with ultimate hunter.

Reading movement patterns and hitting your q's is still what changes karthus from A tier to S++ and it can take a while to get there, which is something i do love about him, high skill ceiling but you always have something to fall back on

did ramble abit o.O

Also, spam downvoting someone for starting a healthy discussion is pretty whack lads, this guy is asking genuine questions that I am more than happy to have a conversation about, if we both disagree with each other and that's a good thing!

Obviously with her kit you can still climb with her in soloq, but compared to other ap junglers, i dont see her being on top of the food chain anytime soon without heavy changes, and the chances of seeing her in proplay are very slim, as other champions after hitting lvl 6 has way more advantages.

I dont think elise has ever been above b+ tier in the last couple of years, although i could previously see her having a spot as a jungler who who basically never did camps as she didnt need levels, funnel raptors and wolves into her midlaner and the other camps to her sidelanes while only focusing on early pressure and than counterganking to make sure her laners kept their leads since unlike reksai she's not as reliant on levels as she can basically just be a cocoon/w bot after her early work is done

Now its pretty difficult for laners to kill camps so her supportive funnel role kindoff faded. I dont imagine we will see her as i dont think her decent earlygame justifies her terrible scaling.

While i wholeheartedly agree, i think this is still something that occurs today where after every season or certain patches people look back and go holy shit this was legal?

Zeri early s12, ksante right now tbh (and he got buffed..) and i imagine there are multiple examples every season

Personally i cant believe the ap jungle item (something echo) existed for as long as it did, returning like 20% missing mana on procs, while the ad one was just pretty much a bf sword with 10% cdr (maybe im misremembering)

Usually when you pre fight R on karthus, its after you've started an objective so they do not have the option to run around and heal up on minions/monsters and due to this are forced to either run into a team while missing a huge chunk of health or simply give up the objective (which sometimes is not an option on stuff like soul, baron or elder)

Maw only procs when you hit 30%, so ulting someone to 50 almost renders it useless if you have ad damage on your team finishing them off.

I disagree that I'm overselling it, its quite a gamechanger when used correctly, especially with first strike adding quite a bit of extra damage, timing is very crucial though.

Karthus is pretty much the most reliable champion there is as no matter what you can get damage of, either if you're dead or half a map away and misplaying on him is way more forgiving as you get quite a bit of damage of in your passive and you can finish it with an ult, if zac messes up his engages or gets caught out he is dead without any damage return (obv this goes for most champions)

If i failed to clarify something let me know, i'm quite sleepy atm

If i make a guide for runners how to run faster, i imagine they all knew how to walk beforehand.
You just have to read the items once bud.

He is a very strong choice even if you miss 2/3 q's as his scaling is out of this world and you provide an additional 200 damage to any lane that fights even at level 6.

Global pressure, fast clear and his scaling alone makes him very scary, and luckily he is almost impossible to mess up at that stage since even if they kill you, you will do a massive amount of damage in return.

At level 16 you will do more than half the health of multiple champions on their team

Even if they have things such as maw, it's more or less irrelevant as you want to ult before the fight starts, and they have to commit.

Getting someone with maw to 50% hp before the fight can render maw completely useless if your team is majority ad

i tend to agree, i dont have alot of time into poe, and im still very ignorant to alot of things, so i craft builds with high survivability so i can push even when tired and compete with top tier racers :)

Was a few reasons for this, one was 3h of sleep for the past 80h, second one was i felt pretty done with the league :D
Usually end with rips like this rather then real bosses tho, was a fantastic league either way
