Hi all :)
Its my first guide in mobafire and i want to show you how to build & play kata. Hope you like it !

Ignite is the best choice for kata. After doing your burst damage, Ignite helps you to take the kill and it goes well with your ultimate and
Flash is good about running - chasing and goes well with your bonus movenet + shunpo. Can be used for engage if your shunpo is on cooldown.

Maxing SINISTER STEEL helps you to deal more damage,get movement speed, clear waves, and take wraiths. But if you have problems with farming you can max Bouncing Blades

PROS

+High Mobilty
+Burst + Aoe Damage
+Easily Snowballs Her Lane
+Not Hard To Farm With Her
+Higesht pentakill rate in the game
+Best passive for scoring multkills
+Easy to take kills with roaming

CONS
-Squishy
-Easily countered at laning
-Can die in a single silence-stun
-Hard To master
-Always out of mana ^^

So here is the important part. Kata is a good champion to play in ranked :
-You can roam and help your team.
-Effective at baron - dragon fights
-You can snowball your lane with kata
-She dont need blue buff like other ap carries. So you can roam as much as you can.
-Even if a bruiser is fed at top or ad carry at bot, kata can burst him/her down.

Always keep a ward in your bag. You need it to shunpo through the walls or long distances to go back into safety.
You have to enter the fight after enemy team uses their cc. Then you can use your ulti without getting inturrepted.

Farming is kinda easy with katarina.Just use your basic atacks to kill minions and harras your enemy with Bouncing Blades. If your enemy pokes and deals good damage against you use your blades to farm minions and wait for a gank.

After min 10 you can just clear your waves with Q W. Then you will roam or take wraiths
