She is not a risk reward champ. Her range and/or windup always put her at a risk but the reward is often not there due to weak scaling or missile speed. She's a capitalize on stupid people champ. A pub stomper. Stop being slow to awareness and you'll have nothing to fear. The only way vs a good team that she's going to be a monster is if your team is very coordinated, and by that point you have much better options for working with a competent team (like Thresh).

Have you watched any LCS lately? Especially EU. Nami's become a very popular and competitive pick.

Probably waiting to see how she is after the Wriggle's change, Wit's change, and jungle camp spawn changes. All of those are pretty meaningful indirect buffs for Shyvana.

Please, please don't take the discussion this way. This thread is about a guy with girlfriend problems, not a debate on gender equality.

People compare her to Sona even though she's only somewhat like Sona. Nami's closer to Janna or Leona depending on how you play her and what the situation demands. She does well when played reactively, but when her lane gets an advantage, she can easily switch into aggression mode and snowball her carry. Her playstyle is very flexible. How you play depends on how you level your skills and how you use them, in addition to who you're playing with.

Oh, and yea, she's really strong right now. She was strong even before the stun duration buff.

Yea, Wriggle's is probably going to be an item primarily for counterjunglers. 1 min wards make counterjungling so much safer without having to spend a ton of money on wards to buy that safety otherwise.

[R] - Dragon's Descent - Now generates 10/15/20 fury (up from 2/3/4)

Did I miss something? Did Riot change how fury worked, or how much fury it takes to use Shyvana's ult (100)? At level 16, 5 autoattacks and you can go from no fury to ult again.

That can't be real, that'd be insane.

I don't know about mid lane Diana since I don't play it, but in the jungle she was kind of hanging on the cliff of viability. She was strong enough to be a good pick, but she wasn't the best pick in the jungle.

Now there is no reason to pick her in the jungle. I am moving back to Nautilus with the new Sejuani as a back up.

Yea, the nerfs to jungle Diana are really depressing. You can't really afford a heavy damage build out of the jungle unless you get fed, so you've gotta buy a lot of defensive items as jungle Diana. The shield nerf really hurts this since it's weakening the value of defensive items. Overall, it makes her a more snowball dependent jungler than she already is, but just generally weaker overall.

Nami is pretty strong right now. Lots of people have these odd preconceptions about her (some stated in the responses you've received) that are either not true or are exaggerations. Especially common are comparisons to Janna and Sona.

Eh, I still think Banshee's Veil is going to be more useful in the vast majority of cases.

It could work though. You'd really have to want that CDR.

Armor pen is relatively weaker on Corki than other ADC's because the lower the target's armor, the less valuable true damage abilities are. Against a target with high armor, the passive makes up a larger percentage of Corki's overall damage since it's not reduced.

Another way to look at it. You're fighting a target with 1 million armor. Corki's damage is basically going to be his passive and nothing else, so it's 100% of his damage. Against a target with 0 armor, his passive deals about 9% of his overall damage. Against a target with 100 armor, his passive deals about 17% of his overall damage.
