Lmao I'm going to pitch it. Some clumsy-ass champion who just accidentally kills people. I love it. That's my new main.

I'm in the depths of Gold 4 hell. I know all about bad junglers...

In jungle it's very manageable. Esp once you get runic you're good to go. In lane its harder; you probably need to itemize a bit more mana.

Hm, I think I'm still pretty concerned that players will adopt a weird brand of non-interaction using something like phase rush where they drop their rotation for a 1/4 of an enemies health, run away, and then do it again 15 seconds later. (Saving ult for clenching the kill)

But, I'm open to seeing how this plays out! She doesn't have any built in sustain, and I think the champion looks thematically well done. Hopefully this one will be fairly easy for you guys to fine tune balance thanks to kit simplicity. Best of luck to you all!

Its a risk point for top lane for sure. If that becomes the optimal way to play her, we'll nerf it. Like you said, the lack of sustain means any ranged or character with lock down will win trades heavily

Does she count as melee or ranged? That's less than any ranged champ and also less than some melee (aatrox and sylas sometimes)

counts as ranged.

Just be careful with the buffs.

The E > R combo looks frustrating to play against.

Hope the hit and run spacing playstyle ends up working out, as I do like that sorta of thing. It works been well with Jhin in the late game.

E is definitely a weird skill shot. I observed a lot of frustration with the spell initially but people eventually grew to dodge it. Its a pretty slow missile, you just need to get used to how it travels.

This is actually a very important part of her kit. Her kit, asides from the speed, looks super super lackluster, and with her ratios and damages now on pbe I can't imagine how she'd work.

The speed could very well change that but I'm still not even sure.

She has quite a long mastery curve we've found. I expect her win rate to be pretty low for a time while people are figuring out the exact amount of risk they should be taking. If she ends up weak though, we'll buff her.

Hello! Mind if I ask a question? What was the justification for going true damage on the Q over adaptive? While I realize she's supposed to be a jungler, I feel like she's shaping up to be really feast/famine as a top laner. She'll either not deal enough damage/not have enough sustain to get rolling, or she'll relentlessly stomp you everytime you walk back to lane with an overwhelming MS stacking passive, a long range slow (needs skill though so not as bad) and an unavoidable hard CC if you fail to dodge anything.

I would be worried of the scenario where people take her top, she gets an early advantage from a bad play or her jungler ganking, and she just runs you down over and over. You won't even be able to tank it out because she has true damage on the Q. This wouldn't be a problem but unlike Darius, she has way better MS in addition to a slow. I feel like she'll just CC you with E/R, and then rip your HP bar with true damage Q while you can't move.

The true damage is there so she can fight tanks. She loves being able to just hit them and back off.

Keep in mind she's not really a burst character unless you build deathcap + other heavy AP items, so unless she gets really really ahead, she isn't one shotting you. She is very squishy baseline, and really can't stand toe to toe with a darius or sett unless she's waaaaay far ahead.

I feel like this is the key thing that's missing from the video. Watching it, I felt like her kit was just two aoe damage spells and a generic projectile that slows. Not exactly exciting dynamic stuff, but what you described sounds fun.

It's just her Q though that adds a stack of speed though - not every ability - right?

Nope, its all of them.

How are you supposed to stack that up? If the stacks fall off at a rate of 1 per second, and she can only get one stack from each cast, the only way that will ever stack is if Q has a CD less than 1 second. As it’s 4 seconds, you’re never going to be able to get a second stack. Plus, the movement speed lasts longer than the stack? How does that work?

They last for 5 seconds, after which they begin falling off.

The video said it's blocked by terrain. Doesn't that mean that it'll hit turrets? Feel like it'd be hard to angle it from fountain so it won't hit the inhibitors or turrets and go all the way to lane

hard, but not impossible.

which doesn't make sense considering Akali, Ahri, Evelynn, and Senna got their Prestige versions way later than their base versions.

Even if they were released later, they were still done at the same time, just released later.

What this basically means is "We are doing a prestige skin for a skin that we designed a while ago"

Correct.

You need an angle on it. She can't get it into the pit from anywhere, its blocked by terrain.
