@@VladimirTheHiddenOne when people say 200 year champ they mean a champion that is absurdly broken and obviously not a good design. This is in reference to a riot dev stating in one of their videos that riot has over 200 years of experience creating games/champs.
@@V.Cas-imyr@VladimirTheHiddenOne "200+ collective years of professional game design experience" is what one of the Riot people once tweeted in an argument.
This is Ambessa, a champion with 4,700 HP, 329 Armor, and 201 MR, has Unstoppable, a Shield, and goes over walls. Has Airborne, and the cooldown is only 1 second too. It costs 15 Mana. The W CD is even refreshed when he transforms. He has true damage on his passive. Then, when he stacks Armor and MR, he gets Ability Haste too, Ability Haste to his Q, and his spell casting speeds up. Then, he has an AD ratio, so his W…AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Aight so in short, reading the skills you linked in the description : > Passive : When casting an ability/auto attack, she gains : attack range, bonus damage, attack speed, refund energy, dash So she can dash as much as irelia, regen energy like lee sin, get attackrange like seraphine passive, and more DPS because why not > Q : Trigger her passive, deals AoE damage scaling on target max hp, twice if she hits the 1st cast She's an antitank and can't miss her spells >W : Trigger her passive, then get shield, AoE damage, increasing if you block damages with it So its lee sin's E1 and W1 on the same spell >E : AoE damage that trigger twice if you dash with her passive and that applies 99% slow An undodgeable thresh ult that cast twice >R passive : Gains Armor penetration and life steal on her ability (life steal on everything) So we have pantheon's R passive, combined with aatrox E that doesn't need to be on minions >R active : Gets unstoppable, blinks behind targets in the ult, suppress them for 0.75sec, deal damage then stun them for 0.4 sec (so 1.15sec CC) So we have a yone ult, in faster, with even more CC... In short : Riot combined irelia's dash, leesin's energy sustain, seraphine attack range, on an antitank "bruiser", that have max hp scaling damage, with aatrox sustain, pantheon's passive and having yone ult, and getting a spell that slow as much as thresh ult that cast twice... Yeah, 200years game design, thanks riot (im glad that im playing yuumi, so I can try to make my ADCs tank this thing...)
"Hey guys I couldn't figure out what the problem with ksante is, but at least he only has like three dashes and not five" "Hey that's a cool idea" "...what?"
i like how the answer riot gives when they release a broken champion every 2 weeks is "just focus your cc on her" as if they dont have 4 other people on their team that also need to be cc'd
@@kingol4801 then don’t allow people to play zilean support or brand like make them have to lock in real engage supps or don’t release champs where u have to draft against
Or any other like midlaner ecc, bruiser was good like darius ilaoi ecc if they caught you you die and Is fine, there Is skills involved in how you positioning yourself , with this champs make no sense ok mobility but not like this make no sense
I don't like the way she runs out of dashes after the first 100. But luckily she doesn't run out of mana, that was a close call man, nearly had to pay attention to resource management in lane.
No, riot is trying to remind you of Riven. Riven isn't allowed to cast half of her kit while she's Rooted, and hopefully Ambessa here will be the same way.
at this point, i'm a 100% convinced the devs are either getting paid bonuses or think they have better job security if the champion is played a lot, so they make them broken by design to assure that exactly that happens
Well, kinda true. If you make a champion that nobody wants to play obviously it won't reflect good on your work. And Riot also already admitted that, on release, champions are OP otherwise player have a bad experience playing them and the champ will not get picked up at all.
"So, what are K'sante's weaknesses?" "Mana, and the ulti makes him squisher" "Alright, let's remove those and give her even more dashes. Also, long range skillshot Vi ult."
@@youngrichfamousmosthandsom3708 She can build bruiser or juggernaut (as she's probably supposed to) and not lose any tankiness she chooses to get. That's the issue
@@TheDahaka1 she appears to be on the squishier side in this video, look at her health compared to yasuo's. she's gonna be strong without a doubt, however people just assume she's gonna be really tanky
I Agree on the more frustration part. Its why i wish there was a classic version of league to go back and only have like the first 40 champs ever heck ill even take like the first like 70 champs season and play that over current league.
For those searching for Ambressa’s big weakness, it’s that in the early game, after they cast their combo, all her abilities are on CDR for like 10 seconds. For literally 10 seconds after her combo, she can only hit you with autos…that’s it. 😂 I abused this in a ranked match when the enemy team finally got the Ambressa first pick swap. Needless to say, after an unhealthy amount of chain ganking every time she missed her combo, punishing her, and resulting in her inevitable death, she was ragingggggggg!!! 😂🔥🔥🔥
You know if Riot is already saying "her counterplay is to save your CC for her", it's gonna be ugly. CC is a universal method of stopping threats. To say that a champ's counter is CC basically means that champ doesn't have any counterplay. Actual counterplay would be things like playing a certain way to respond to something an enemy champ does, like waiting until Fizz's E is on cooldown to jump on him, or keeping your distance from Warwick while he is charging Primal Howl and then engaging as soon as it ends. "Just use CC" is not counterplay. Kind of sucks to see this because the last few champ releases have actually been more modest. Aurora can be annoying to play against, for sure, but she's not overloaded by any means. She's got a couple of pretty basic skillshots and a short dash with very brief invisibility so she can reposition in fights, and an ult that's great for all-ins for teamfighting, but confines her to the same area enemies are trapped in, giving enemies an opportunity to focus her down or force her to cancel her ult so she can escape. Aside from Aurora, Hwei is a jack of all trades but doesn't do anything other champs can't, Naafiri is as simple and straightfoward as assassins can get, and Briar is just the diver-est diver of all time, with her sole objective being to DIVE THE ENEMY, and when she does she is restricted to running directly at you, completely unable to dodge anything you and your team throw at her. Some of these champs have been S++++++ with absurdly high winrates before, but only when Riot buffs them too much and they just do too much damage. That makes them overTUNED, not overLOADED. Jhin has also had moments of being quite overpowered as a result of buffs, that doesn't make him badly designed. I can name methods of counterplay for all of these champs I just talked about. Ambessa though? Riot just said it themselves, all you can do is CC her and pray.
Jhin is a bad design by how uninspired and basic af he is,but gameplay wise his design isnt overloaded and doesnt bring nothing bad to the game,that is the difference between a champ that was made for the game and a champ that was made just for a lack of ideas,ambessa is the definition of that,hwei with his 10 abilities is still a mage who fits really well in his class and is very well rounded gameplay wise,its like they store all their bad ideas and then just blow them up together and ksante and abessa are born
I mean there are plenty of champions in which not having cc or failing to use it on them would make it seem like there's no counter play. Virtually every assassin falls into this category, master yi, blue kayn, katarina, etc etc etc. There is so much cc available in 2024 that making meaningful cc a requirement to kill certain champions isn't that big of an ask.
Miss those times when the summoner spell flash makes a difference in fights. With all the latest champions released by RIOT with so much mobility, i think flash spell is getting more redundant.
no its not! i hate those overtunned champs plus its kind of cool thing that lorewise some champs have monopoly on some gameplay mechanic like ionia and energy. i really like those rules but they are being broken again and again, nowdays not much is left from that. I remember the rule that every champ from void should have truedmg and khazix was exception and now they deleted true dmg from reksai like whatever.
Them saying dumbfuck shit like "cc is a counter to this champion" is so retarded like name a champion that doesnt get fucked over by cc lmfao what a joke dev
Cant empathize for ADCs. Adding that role and the marksman class was the dumbest thing Riot ever did. Flawed design from the get go. Ranged, auto attack based carry role.... If it is ranged, it has to deal damage with skill shots If it does damage with auto attacks, it has to be meele Dota got it right Almost all AA carries are meele. Range is the singular most broken stat to have in any game ever
@@TheSeldomRare it is, when it's a real advantage. The problem is now range is more of an excuse to make champs weaker with little to no counterpoint. As an example, jax Q have more range than most ADC. Nasus W have more range than most ADC. Almost every dash is either the same or most range than most ADC. And is not like ADC damage is SO Big now as it was in the past. Back in season 4-6, ADC had a reason to be so squishy, since it was the Main damage source of the team, but slowly the game moved towards a state of every role deal damage and something else, but marksman stayed as only damage
@@TheSeldomRare lmao I thought you were just a braindead League Stan and I was gonna let you be, but then you brought up DoTA and I cannot for the life of me believe how r-tarded you r: Drow Ranger, Windrunner, Lina, Huskar, Arc Warden, Gyro, Dusa, Sniper, TA, TB, Razor, SF, Venge, Clinkz, Willow, that's 15 autoattack-based ranged carries off the top of my head, and I'd probably find more if I looked up the roster, seeing as I haven't played DoTA in about 5 years. Sure, there are some melee ones like Slark, Void, AM, Sven, Spectre, or PL, but they all have a point-and-click way to close the distance, or just use blink dagger/shadowblade. Also DoTA is very much not skillshot reliant, that's a LoL thing.
@@TheSeldomRare lmao no DoTA has a healthy 50-50 split between ranged and melee autoattack bases carries, and DoTA doesn't have many damaging skillshots, most of them are utility. Also DoTA just has a bunch of point-and-click, League players would faint seeing that.
Riot: Movement tools are very powerful, which is why we don't make them spamable without severe limitations. Also Riot: This champion can do a free medium range dash every time they cast an ability.
1. Riot needs to explain to me lorewise why she is using energy. Aren't only Ionian and especially Kinkou champions energy user? (Shen, Kennen, Akali, Zed. Lee Sin is maybe an exception) 2. As Poppy is still exceptionally good in SoloQ right now in multiple roles because of champions having more and more dashes (it might even be possible to blind pick poppy right now), I think Poppy and probably Taliyah will become better to a point where antidash is to valuable, just because every new champion has one or more dashes.
Yeah BUT GOD FORBID ADC ITMES GIVING 5% move speed holy Christ are you crazy they might even kite Ambessa for he first 2 dashes before getting caught, or sidestep her ulti Jesus are you insane?
I think Riot's just making up for the lack of dashes across Hwei, Smolder, and the Skarner rework (I don't think Skarner's E should be counted as a dash)
The biggest sign that it will be a 200 years champ is the phrase “counter them with cc” Howis that supposed to work if everyone on the enemy team is like that lol
Seraphine, Lissandra with zhonyas, Aurelion Sol, Qiyana, Skarner, Mordekaiser ult to isolate, Syndra, Orianna, Vi, Nautilus, Wukong, Aphelios gravitum ult, Zyra, Lillia... like I could keep going on but there's plenty of ways to deal with her and other mobile champs. Lock em down and let your ADC clean up.
I agree, so I am gonna stop being a stubborn Darius/Mord main and adapt with the times. I mean, I use ghost on Dar and adc's still kite me- no more. Maybe she performs too well and Riot nerfs her, but until then...
Riot every time they release a turbo broken champ : Weakness : vulnerable to cc Yeah who’s not ?! Jokes aside it starts being sad that every champ they release has to be over mobile. They could have made a cool Darius like character but it’s once again a 5 dashes champ
@@theonlyakuma Smolder is annoying tho on a different lvl. man can be 1-8 early game but then walk up midgame and all the sudden my adc just explodes and dies all cause he finally finished his 2nd item... like what we farmed ur butt botlane the entire early game and u walk up and ur 1 tapping my adc??
Ofcourse cc counters every champ in the game but it counters champs like Darius more than champs like Fiora/Kayle for example. Some champs just rely on running at people those champs usually get countered the hardest by cc.
@@un4893 Singed. Also for every 'running at you champ', CC is irrelevant after like, 2 items + merc threads. Unless you have 5 morganas landing concurrent Qs one after the other, nothing is keeping that runner down.
as soon as you said energy champion i thought she would be a balance nightmare, there's a reason why we don't have many energy champs... and then i saw the abilities and yup this champ is the next k'sante/zeri/smolder
@@inbeing3464 After a full combo you are definitely out of energy unless you run presence of mind but then you have to go precision tree. The only thing that holds akali back is the energy otherwise she would shit on most champs and once you are out of energy then you will be useless for a long time
Side note, Ambessa's use of Energy has really interesting lore implications? All the other energy champions are Ionian Ninjas (with exception to Lee Sin, an Ionian martial arts master). I wonder if something about training in Ionia is part of her lore, or if they just gave up on having a unique resource system for that string of characters because they got lazy lmao
AD, AS , attack range boost 5 dashes 1 shield 4 AoE Spells (5 if we consider ult) long range surppression+knockup+stun oh right, forgot, no mana* R passive gives %Armor pen and healing that also scales with her lifesteal* Stridebreaker on E with 99% slow for 1 seconds TWICE* %Max HP damage on Q TWICE* Meanwhile old champs:
Near-infinite dashes ✅ Unstoppable ✅ Shields ✅ Assassin, tank and bruiser at the same time ✅ Fake resource bar that never depletes ✅ Mostly AOE damage ✅ High-range picking ultimate that bumps ✅ Welcome back K'sante from League of legends! Can't wait for Riot to hotfix you and give you %max health true damage!
So her passive is kalista and sylas passive together, her w is ksante w, her e is darius q, and her ult is a skill shot vi ult. Very creative and unique champion.
Good comparison, because in many ways Ambessa and Riven both have infinite dashes. HowEVER: 1: Riven's dashes are TINY. Ambessa seemingly possesses the same amount of dashes (plus her ult is a Yone ult), but unlike Riven, they're respectably big dashes, which WILL, and I mean WILL, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT, BE MADE AT LEAST SLIGHTLY SHORTER IN A HOTFIX because speaking as a Riven main myself, a single Ambessa dash is analogous or equal to about 2 Riven dashes, so she basically has double, even triple the mobility once you factor in W and R being dashes. I'm not sure if Ambessa has movespeed steroids, and if she doesn't, that basically means Riot reworked Riven again and sold said rework as a new champion. Riven's Q is quantity over quality, made only good by Q delay, otherwise she's surprisingly kitable and sluggish. In this current age, ADCs can kite Riven no problem if they know what they are doing. In the video we can see that Lucian has trouble kiting Ambessa, and he's one of the marksmen who's best equipped at kiting Riven (even with Q delay and proper E timing, I can never catch up to a good Lucian player), so I see no reason to not try Ambessa. 2: Kalista's passive wouldn't be great as a melee because you would need to be in melee range to ostensibly stick onto your opponent through auto attacks, so the trigger became abilities instead, which unironically gives Ambessa even MORE mobility. Also it seems like ALL of Ambessa's abilities can dash, including W and R which are dashes themselves. Riven's W and R however, are NOT dashes and have cast times which can stun Riven herself if not animation cancelled, which is why animation cancelling these abilities via Double Casting and ER1ing respectively is so important on Riven. Ambessa does not have this limitation, though like K'Sante which is why she's most often compared to him, her skill ceiling seems higher than Riven's. 3: The Yone ult functions exactly like Vi ult, yes, exactly. Only difference is the skillshot aspect which makes it a blend of Yone's and Vi's. 4: Ambessa's W is a reworked Riven E, that shields (even looks bigger than Riven shield so maybe its cooldown is longer) and dashes but also deals damage, directly reWARDING the Ambessa player for blocking damage taken from champions, which is a pretty cool aspect if I'm being honest. Ambessa's other damaging abilities also seem to have wider range and AOE than even Riven during ult, basically making her the epitome of 200 years in game design. At this point, Riven's biggest flaw is that she was made in 2011 where her mobility was considered disgusting and unacceptable by old standards. Champions like Ambessa and the fact Riven has become surprisingly kitable in modern League really demonstrates that Riven is starting to show her age. Which is funny because Riven is young in the lore while Ambessa is an elderly woman in her late 50s. Sorry for the essay - there's just SO much to cover here.
This is Ambessa, a champion with 4,700 HP, 329 Armor, and 201 MR, has Unstoppable, a Shield, and goes over walls. Has Airborne, and the cooldown is only 1 second too. It costs 15 Mana. The W CD is even refreshed when he transforms. He has true damage on his passive. Then, when he stacks Armor and MR, he gets Ability Haste too, Ability Haste to his Q, and his spell casting speeds up
okay so to sum it up: Ambessa kit: - has 5 Dashes - has a W shield that deals more damage when enemy or turret hit - has a aoe mid range E that slows - has an empowered auto attack per skill cast that restores energy AND increased attack range - has an Passive Armor Pen on ult - can backdoor with R - a fkn bruiser - did I mention that she has omnivamp on ult as well? - ff15
so kalista has to be weak because she can dash after every auto, and the dash caps her attack speed (even more if she is slowed) but ambessa gets additionnal effects for using her mobility option
They must be trolling at this point. 999 times they have been proven wrong that this is not the way they should be designing champs yet they still give every new champ overloaded kits with no counterplay. They should stop making champs if this is the way its going to be because everytime such a champ comes out its at our expense for a few months until its nerfed to oblivion
It's not just the overloaded kit either, this champion is unreadable in a fight. All the ability animations look extremely similar, and it's hard to tell what she's casting.
It is that some people and company feel the need to make every next thing of their more bombastic, with more fanfare; even to their own detriment, because it's hard to make a smaller thing and not face some amount of backlash or disappointment. Michael from Vsauce used shorts (and I think also a next channel) to make things he was interested in, but that were smaller, didn't fit another 30+ minute video with different scenes, lots of editing, jokes etc.
It's got counterplay, but the counterplay is "either you stun her so she can't play the game or she kills you so you can't play the game". This game has no middle ground. It's either "get CC'd to death (seriously, why the fuck can I be stuck for 5 seconds of a 6 second fight?)" or "leblanc coming in hot with a .34 second combo that's going to one shot you even though you have MR and 3k health".
Riot: *releases unbalanceable champion* Riot 2 months later: "It is really hard to balance for both in ranked and pro play! So passed the release hype, we are gonna gut this champion into oblivion!"
i think you mean that she is MANE LESS champion but have energy yes? its even worse then lee sin kinda i mean lee sin BASICLY doesnt have energy problems like MOST of energy champion but ambassa have LITERALLY NO ENERGY PROBLEMS AT ALL she is basicly mana less champion he spams her all abilities and DONT CARE

Aight so in short, reading the skills you linked in the description :

So she can dash as much as irelia, regen energy like lee sin, get attackrange like seraphine passive, and more DPS because why not
> Q : Trigger her passive, deals AoE damage scaling on target max hp, twice if she hits the 1st cast
She's an antitank and can't miss her spells
>W : Trigger her passive, then get shield, AoE damage, increasing if you block damages with it
So its lee sin's E1 and W1 on the same spell
>E : AoE damage that trigger twice if you dash with her passive and that applies 99% slow
An undodgeable thresh ult that cast twice
>R passive : Gains Armor penetration and life steal on her ability (life steal on everything)
So we have pantheon's R passive, combined with aatrox E that doesn't need to be on minions
>R active : Gets unstoppable, blinks behind targets in the ult, suppress them for 0.75sec, deal damage then stun them for 0.4 sec (so 1.15sec CC)
So we have a yone ult, in faster, with even more CC...
In short :
Riot combined irelia's dash, leesin's energy sustain, seraphine attack range, on an antitank "bruiser", that have max hp scaling damage, with aatrox sustain, pantheon's passive and having yone ult, and getting a spell that slow as much as thresh ult that cast twice...
Yeah, 200years game design, thanks riot (im glad that im playing yuumi, so I can try to make my ADCs tank this thing...)
Not to defend this trash game but I think her ult stops at the first champ. Yone can damage multiple with his (and damn it feels good to do that)
u forgot about the kalista passive bro
"To counter her, wait about 2 months and pray she doesn't sell well so she gets nerfed so heavily that no one ever plays her again"

And then in some games u won’t have cc since u can’t control the picks of 4 other people
Yes.
Because the developers want this game to be a battle of titans, not a battle of wusses

at this point, i'm a 100% convinced the devs are either getting paid bonuses or think they have better job security if the champion is played a lot, so they make them broken by design to assure that exactly that happens
No they are just making champions exclusivly for the tryhards because that is what is left of this community everyone else is gone.

If you make a champion that nobody wants to play obviously it won't reflect good on your work. And Riot also already admitted that, on release, champions are OP otherwise player have a bad experience playing them and the champ will not get picked up at all.

Me too tbh.
Then the fuck are you doing here gtfo
For those searching for Ambressa’s big weakness, it’s that in the early game, after they cast their combo, all her abilities are on CDR for like 10 seconds. For literally 10 seconds after her combo, she can only hit you with autos…that’s it. 😂 I abused this in a ranked match when the enemy team finally got the Ambressa first pick swap. Needless to say, after an unhealthy amount of chain ganking every time she missed her combo, punishing her, and resulting in her inevitable death, she was ragingggggggg!!! 😂🔥🔥🔥
Shes missing a few things:
-Ult reset
-3 hit passive
-True damage
-Execute
The last one is in her R
she executes on her ult dude....
you just know it was in the kit at the beggining
Where max health DMG every second? Weak AF Kit NGL
What does it mean to execute? Like the target dies immediately if less than 5% health?
You know if Riot is already saying "her counterplay is to save your CC for her", it's gonna be ugly. CC is a universal method of stopping threats. To say that a champ's counter is CC basically means that champ doesn't have any counterplay. Actual counterplay would be things like playing a certain way to respond to something an enemy champ does, like waiting until Fizz's E is on cooldown to jump on him, or keeping your distance from Warwick while he is charging Primal Howl and then engaging as soon as it ends. "Just use CC" is not counterplay. Kind of sucks to see this because the last few champ releases have actually been more modest. Aurora can be annoying to play against, for sure, but she's not overloaded by any means. She's got a couple of pretty basic skillshots and a short dash with very brief invisibility so she can reposition in fights, and an ult that's great for all-ins for teamfighting, but confines her to the same area enemies are trapped in, giving enemies an opportunity to focus her down or force her to cancel her ult so she can escape. Aside from Aurora, Hwei is a jack of all trades but doesn't do anything other champs can't, Naafiri is as simple and straightfoward as assassins can get, and Briar is just the diver-est diver of all time, with her sole objective being to DIVE THE ENEMY, and when she does she is restricted to running directly at you, completely unable to dodge anything you and your team throw at her. Some of these champs have been S++++++ with absurdly high winrates before, but only when Riot buffs them too much and they just do too much damage. That makes them overTUNED, not overLOADED. Jhin has also had moments of being quite overpowered as a result of buffs, that doesn't make him badly designed. I can name methods of counterplay for all of these champs I just talked about. Ambessa though? Riot just said it themselves, all you can do is CC her and pray.
Totally agreed
Im always picking poppy supp.
Very good comment i agree with everything
Jhin is a bad design by how uninspired and basic af he is,but gameplay wise his design isnt overloaded and doesnt bring nothing bad to the game,that is the difference between a champ that was made for the game and a champ that was made just for a lack of ideas,ambessa is the definition of that,hwei with his 10 abilities is still a mage who fits really well in his class and is very well rounded gameplay wise,its like they store all their bad ideas and then just blow them up together and ksante and abessa are born
I mean there are plenty of champions in which not having cc or failing to use it on them would make it seem like there's no counter play. Virtually every assassin falls into this category, master yi, blue kayn, katarina, etc etc etc. There is so much cc available in 2024 that making meaningful cc a requirement to kill certain champions isn't that big of an ask.
Riven 2.0, more dashes, suppression instead of an missing health execute, and just overall easier. This is gonna be real 200 years moment
Miss those times when the summoner spell flash makes a difference in fights. With all the latest champions released by RIOT with so much mobility, i think flash spell is getting more redundant.

Riot: ADC have range advantage
Also riot: lets make every role have enough dashes to catch any ADC despite the range
Also every ability has at least 500 range hitbox
Cant empathize for ADCs. Adding that role and the marksman class was the dumbest thing Riot ever did. Flawed design from the get go.
Ranged, auto attack based carry role....
If it is ranged, it has to deal damage with skill shots
If it does damage with auto attacks, it has to be meele
Dota got it right
Almost all AA carries are meele. Range is the singular most broken stat to have in any game ever
@@TheSeldomRare it is, when it's a real advantage. The problem is now range is more of an excuse to make champs weaker with little to no counterpoint. As an example, jax Q have more range than most ADC. Nasus W have more range than most ADC. Almost every dash is either the same or most range than most ADC. And is not like ADC damage is SO Big now as it was in the past. Back in season 4-6, ADC had a reason to be so squishy, since it was the Main damage source of the team, but slowly the game moved towards a state of every role deal damage and something else, but marksman stayed as only damage
@@TheSeldomRare lmao I thought you were just a braindead League Stan and I was gonna let you be, but then you brought up DoTA and I cannot for the life of me believe how r-tarded you r: Drow Ranger, Windrunner, Lina, Huskar, Arc Warden, Gyro, Dusa, Sniper, TA, TB, Razor, SF, Venge, Clinkz, Willow, that's 15 autoattack-based ranged carries off the top of my head, and I'd probably find more if I looked up the roster, seeing as I haven't played DoTA in about 5 years. Sure, there are some melee ones like Slark, Void, AM, Sven, Spectre, or PL, but they all have a point-and-click way to close the distance, or just use blink dagger/shadowblade. Also DoTA is very much not skillshot reliant, that's a LoL thing.
@@TheSeldomRare lmao no DoTA has a healthy 50-50 split between ranged and melee autoattack bases carries, and DoTA doesn't have many damaging skillshots, most of them are utility. Also DoTA just has a bunch of point-and-click, League players would faint seeing that.
Riot: Movement tools are very powerful, which is why we don't make them spamable without severe limitations.
Also Riot: This champion can do a free medium range dash every time they cast an ability.

1. Riot needs to explain to me lorewise why she is using energy. Aren't only Ionian and especially Kinkou champions energy user? (Shen, Kennen, Akali, Zed. Lee Sin is maybe an exception)
2. As Poppy is still exceptionally good in SoloQ right now in multiple roles because of champions having more and more dashes (it might even be possible to blind pick poppy right now), I think Poppy and probably Taliyah will become better to a point where antidash is to valuable, just because every new champion has one or more dashes.

So her passive is kalista and sylas passive together, her w is ksante w, her e is darius q, and her ult is a skill shot vi ult. Very creative and unique champion.
She feels like Riven with Kalistas passive and a Vi ult.
More like Yone ult
@@agustinlencina736Single target
mix vi + Taliyah + Ksanté Ult
Her ult is useless if you have a tank in front.
Good comparison, because in many ways Ambessa and Riven both have infinite dashes. HowEVER:
1: Riven's dashes are TINY. Ambessa seemingly possesses the same amount of dashes (plus her ult is a Yone ult), but unlike Riven, they're respectably big dashes, which WILL, and I mean WILL, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT, BE MADE AT LEAST SLIGHTLY SHORTER IN A HOTFIX because speaking as a Riven main myself, a single Ambessa dash is analogous or equal to about 2 Riven dashes, so she basically has double, even triple the mobility once you factor in W and R being dashes. I'm not sure if Ambessa has movespeed steroids, and if she doesn't, that basically means Riot reworked Riven again and sold said rework as a new champion. Riven's Q is quantity over quality, made only good by Q delay, otherwise she's surprisingly kitable and sluggish. In this current age, ADCs can kite Riven no problem if they know what they are doing. In the video we can see that Lucian has trouble kiting Ambessa, and he's one of the marksmen who's best equipped at kiting Riven (even with Q delay and proper E timing, I can never catch up to a good Lucian player), so I see no reason to not try Ambessa.
2: Kalista's passive wouldn't be great as a melee because you would need to be in melee range to ostensibly stick onto your opponent through auto attacks, so the trigger became abilities instead, which unironically gives Ambessa even MORE mobility. Also it seems like ALL of Ambessa's abilities can dash, including W and R which are dashes themselves. Riven's W and R however, are NOT dashes and have cast times which can stun Riven herself if not animation cancelled, which is why animation cancelling these abilities via Double Casting and ER1ing respectively is so important on Riven. Ambessa does not have this limitation, though like K'Sante which is why she's most often compared to him, her skill ceiling seems higher than Riven's.
3: The Yone ult functions exactly like Vi ult, yes, exactly. Only difference is the skillshot aspect which makes it a blend of Yone's and Vi's.
4: Ambessa's W is a reworked Riven E, that shields (even looks bigger than Riven shield so maybe its cooldown is longer) and dashes but also deals damage, directly reWARDING the Ambessa player for blocking damage taken from champions, which is a pretty cool aspect if I'm being honest. Ambessa's other damaging abilities also seem to have wider range and AOE than even Riven during ult, basically making her the epitome of 200 years in game design.
At this point, Riven's biggest flaw is that she was made in 2011 where her mobility was considered disgusting and unacceptable by old standards. Champions like Ambessa and the fact Riven has become surprisingly kitable in modern League really demonstrates that Riven is starting to show her age. Which is funny because Riven is young in the lore while Ambessa is an elderly woman in her late 50s.
Sorry for the essay - there's just SO much to cover here.
Modern day Riven with a kalista passive triggered off of ability usage and a long range yone ult. 3000 years of game design experience.

Random bullshit go!
Nice, another Ksante, good job
"Use the crowd control on her" as if hitting a skillshot on a champion moving that much was easy.
That's what I'm saying! I need to hit a skillshot to apply CC Riot!
This is Ambessa, a champion with 4,700 HP, 329 Armor, and 201 MR, has Unstoppable, a Shield, and goes over walls. Has Airborne, and the cooldown is only 1 second too. It costs 15 Mana. The W CD is even refreshed when he transforms. He has true damage on his passive. Then, when he stacks Armor and MR, he gets Ability Haste too, Ability Haste to his Q, and his spell casting speeds up
🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
nice copy&past idiot
no mana for her
one billion dash fighter was what we exactly needed
okay so to sum it up:
Ambessa kit:
- has 5 Dashes
- has a W shield that deals more damage when enemy or turret hit
- has a aoe mid range E that slows
- has an empowered auto attack per skill cast that restores energy AND increased attack range
- has an Passive Armor Pen on ult
- can backdoor with R
- a fkn bruiser
- did I mention that she has omnivamp on ult as well?
- ff15
so kalista has to be weak because she can dash after every auto, and the dash caps her attack speed (even more if she is slowed) but ambessa gets additionnal effects for using her mobility option
To be fair Ambessa has to be within melee range which makes her more vulnerable (theoretically). Kalista can just kite away without much of a problem.
@@Darion350 Ah yes, she looks she will have a really hard time getting in melee range for sure.
@@Darion350 buddy I think she'd catch you pretty easily even exhausted
@@falinestixiaolong9691 My point is that she needs to be in melee range where Kalista doesn't.
@@livefootball2000 Oh I don't doubt that. My point was that she's more vulnerable since she has to be in melee range where Kalista doesn't.
Q = DAMAGE DASH
W = SHIELD DASH
E = AOE DAMAGE DASH
R = CC DASH
Q is 2 dashes
Passive is also a dash
If you think Ambessa is busted, wait til you see Ambassing
We all know that Riot employee who played this game going to be main her in rank.
They really saw the backlash to K'sante and said "hm, we need more of that!".
bro my jaw dropped on the first 10 seconds when u didnt even start explaining
They must be trolling at this point. 999 times they have been proven wrong that this is not the way they should be designing champs yet they still give every new champ overloaded kits with no counterplay. They should stop making champs if this is the way its going to be because everytime such a champ comes out its at our expense for a few months until its nerfed to oblivion
It's not just the overloaded kit either, this champion is unreadable in a fight. All the ability animations look extremely similar, and it's hard to tell what she's casting.
It is that some people and company feel the need to make every next thing of their more bombastic, with more fanfare; even to their own detriment, because it's hard to make a smaller thing and not face some amount of backlash or disappointment.
Michael from Vsauce used shorts (and I think also a next channel) to make things he was interested in, but that were smaller, didn't fit another 30+ minute video with different scenes, lots of editing, jokes etc.
@@jonahshriver1682This is the same company that denied Yorick his hat due to visual clarity and readability.
It's got counterplay, but the counterplay is "either you stun her so she can't play the game or she kills you so you can't play the game". This game has no middle ground. It's either "get CC'd to death (seriously, why the fuck can I be stuck for 5 seconds of a 6 second fight?)" or "leblanc coming in hot with a .34 second combo that's going to one shot you even though you have MR and 3k health".
Riot: *releases unbalanceable champion*
Riot 2 months later: "It is really hard to balance for both in ranked and pro play! So passed the release hype, we are gonna gut this champion into oblivion!"
This is like riven with 9 extra dashes, a sylas q, and single target yone ult. Truly a brilliant game design ❤
K’Sante: died in 2024
Ambessa: born is 2024
Welcome back!
petition to make riot change the "no energy" icon to make it actually a yellow energy icon instead of the same blue mana one
like I've been thinking about this for so long
@@wNiNGeNw schizo
@@mif4731 ITS A CONTINUATION
i think you mean that she is MANE LESS champion but have energy yes? its even worse then lee sin kinda i mean lee sin BASICLY doesnt have energy problems like MOST of energy champion
but ambassa have LITERALLY NO ENERGY PROBLEMS AT ALL she is basicly mana less champion he spams her all abilities and DONT CARE
@@dramat123 I'm talking in regards to all energy champions, the insufficient energy icon is a mana icon
"She should be loosing in extended fights" proceeds to 1v4 in an extended fight
Never got below half Energy while constantly spamming, either
@@PhailRaptor her spells cost 70 energy, and she refunds 70 with each aa boosted by passive. And aa keep its passive for 4 sec... so she gonna run of energy only if she cant attack for 4 sec after using all her energy (and dont forget that boosted aa got +100 range).
@@PhailRaptor Never got below half hp while getting CC in the middle of the enemy team.
Imagine playing Riven once this thing releases.
Uhul thank you riot. Another op champ that you'll have to gut it down after two weeks to never remember it ever again. Truly a masterpiece.
The passive is like all the best parts of Kaisa and Sylas's passives.
Riot: Wow, everyone loves K'Sante so much we should make a new champ just like him
I'm amazed they didn't give her a passive 3-hit-combo mark that deals percentage true damage and also heals her.
1:00 made me sad
