A bit of humor in this thread may go a long way towards getting a Red in here.

It's like if I spent my entire life as a doctor learning how to perfectly amputate limbs that needed to be removed, only to have some bunch of scientists funded by the same people who pay me devise some miracle drug that regrows limbs for people.

Old Katarina was much weaker at escaping after she went in and much easier to shut down with CC.

I will concede this to some degree. BUT, that was because she had a choice before! Shunpo in, or Shunpo out? If she Shunpo'd in, she would deal a lot of damage, but be in harm's way. Shunpo out, and she would be out of harm's way, but deal no damage.

Mhm. In mid right now she can use her shunpo offensively because she receives the speed boost. Makes Annie and Ryze great counters to her though, as both build tankier (RoA) than some.

Well not only that, but she also doesn't have to choose whether she uses KI's defensive buff or not.

That's true, too.

And they moved the healing reduction onto the most unrealistic situation in which it would be used.

QQ She's different! QQ I don't like that! QQ undo it!

after all this time you think people would get used to all of this.

Not even worth reading a QQ thread.

So let me get this straight.

I spent about 50 minutes writing a post outlining some of the big reasons that Katarina is currently broken and why she can't be fixed by numbers, and you give me a "TL;DR" while telling me that I'm QQ'ing?

Get out, please.
