Ez only works if you get ahead early / have a solid tank line so you can just fight foreeeeverrrrrr
and he has very underwhelming lategame damage compared to other adcs, particularly aa-heavy adcs like caitlin / tristana / etc

I really like Nami at the moment. Good combination of utility / cc / heal /poke - decent lane phase, and she's relevant lategame as well from both a cc perspective and (depending how you build / what items you have) a damage perspective.

I don't know if I agree that taric brings more in lane than braum - I just think they bring different things. Braum's CC isn't as reliable, but his greater mobility and his passive allowing him to proc CC with no spells up is really useful.

Taric's ult is a ridiculous teamfighting ability that I think people underestimate (as iec said, invisible power). It's not aoe CC, no, so that has to come from somewhere else on the team, but the sheer amount of extra damage it gives is kind of ridiculous. It makes taric himself a legit damage threat (+70 AP and AD at level 3 is ridonkulous), and increases the strength of his teammates more than the first dragon does in most lategame scenarios.

how much of a nerf does cassio eat here? she already has extremely low CDs and low mana cast on her primary damage ability, and poison ticks still occur at the same rate (I think?) so her passive scaling doesn't seem like it'd be too hurt
Also, ahri seems decent - her ult is likely quite strong

there is a fine line between reference and plagiarism sometimes
Riot does occasionally straddle that line rather closely

As much as I love this game, I think Riot has a lot of champ design issues - both that aspect, as well as a rather notable lack of diversity in their human characters
but this conversation's been held before

Karma. They made her definitively black when they did her rework

I don't think so? But that said, I don't know if it's actually been explicitly stated what race she is, since there's no described runeterran equivalent to 'race' in the lore (nations don't appear to have noticeable racial distinctions).

Could go either way, IMO - they did very clearly darken her skin from her old artwork, which I thought was an intentional effort to clarify that she's intended to be black
Regardless, the point is that there are a grand total of two human characters that aren't white.

according to leagueoflegends.wikia.com, these are the Ionian characters:
Ahri
Irelia
karma
Lee Sin
Master Yi
Soraka
Varus
Ahri is not human.
Irelia I could see being Chinese based on artwork, I guess?
Karma is being discussed above.
Lee Sin - can't tell, artwork sure looks white but name is chinese
Master Yi - same as Lee
Soraka - not human
Varus - Difficult to tell due to void corruption, etc
So there are maybe 4 champions you could say are chinese.
Maybe.
P-Edit: but you can't tell that, really? Shen in particular is completely masked, he could be native american for all we know

I dunno, maybe my inability to discern the not-whiteness of some of those characters is indicative of my personal racial biases / general lack of experience with asians as a whole?
