Kayles kit does allow for her to carry very well... like you mention she has a single target nuke which slows and increases her dmg vs the target, heal with haste buff, a dmg increase active, and her intervention.

singe target nuke with slow with dmg increase - very carry oriented

haste buff - very carry oriented

dmg increase active - very carry oriented

intervention - allows her to keep doing dmg and stay in the fight, this is her steroid much like yi's highlander and olafs ragnarok

haste buff / heal - very carry oriented, scales off of her items, incredible sustain and allows her to kite and escape

dmg increase active - very carry oriented, hits for 100 damage per hit at level 1 with standard runes - highest level 1 damage output in game, rivaling early pantheons heart seeker strike at level 2, scales with items

intervention - allows her to keep doing dmg and stay in the fight, this is her steroid much like yi's highlander and olafs ragnarok, also the only shield in the game that blocks CC, makes her impossible to gank in lane and makes her able to protect someone completely in fight



Just added more detail - sure she has two supportive skills, but Nidalee has a support skill that makes her queen of early pushing. Kayle has support skills that makes her queen of laning and makes her an amazing asset to teamfights while she deals insane damage.

....Haste is just as support oriented as it is carry oriented, more so for Kayle considering it's on a heal. The reason she has a a damage buff when her Q is on someone is because her damage is rather light, yes she nukes but using her E without her Q on a champion tickles them, it does not go WTF RAPEEM. She isn't a natural nuke, due to her hybrid like build that currently works for her. HER ultimate can be self cast or put on a firendly once again it can go both ways as you say "to let her do more damage" and it's not like Ragnarok or Highlander. Both of those abilities are first of all, self cast only, secondly apply benefits to their specific champions which increase their offensive abilities. Intervention is an immunity shield, it protects Kayle or target friendly. It does not make her go super ****ing sayan.

She has a support role, and her abilities can be just as defensive oriented as they can be DPS or Nuke oriented. But at the same time I reiterate HOW people build and play her is what defines her as a DPS Mage. To me her kit is better oriented for solid support, as an assisting DPS-Mage.

I actually really like her new model, not sure if these changes will get me to play her though. I always thought she was kind of boring and the fact that she has her ranged attack on toggle is just kind of annoying.
Also, I wonder if Tiamat would be viable on Kayle, I mean it basically makes it so that she's auto attacking every champ in range of the champ she's actually attacking. Although I'm wondering if tiamat calculates the damage done to the champ first (including madred's and the boost from her E) and then applies a percentage of that to the AoE or if it just takes the base attack damage.

:[ Err, I want my DPS Kayle back. So many times Shuerelia said that they would be moving Kayle more towards the pseudo-carry side...and then this happens.

One thing to be optimistic about is that we don't know any of the base strengths on her rework, nor do we know the ratios of her new passive. They could very well be just as good, or better than the current Kayle. The cooldowns overall look about normal, or lower too...except for her heal. Looks like it got a huge nerf because apparently Riot hates sustain champions now.


Yeah... Its pretty unfortunate. We really dont know what she will be capable of and I am still open to it, but arrrgh. why u nerf completely balances champs when you have people like Yorick running around.

The heal, I actually have 2 comments on, you could test a SV and see how that works, and you get increased movespeed (cause 12% wasnt enough...) with the new red buff, if you dont have a jungle, kayle should be getting red.

I personally like the concept, I've always like Kayle. It will be nice for her to be more support based, Kayle will probably be my new support champion. I'm pretty stoked.


Well. I said she will rival Janna and Taric now... so we will see.

Quoted:

Seems like they want her to be more DPS than pure support.


Dont know where you are getting this from. The current Kayle is way more DPS than support. With her new passive, just build Abyssals and Malady and you debuff their team so hard.

Many thanks to Canoas for my epic sig
