Abilities: Strategy and Tactic

The new katarina is more different then tha last one first thing now you can't jump on ward's whit Shunpo... :( it is bad thing bc now really hard to play kata jungle...

In this section we talk about main game pick and ability tactics if i can i will show you them on map.

First of all About tactic's

On the Summoners rift
The map have some teritories. Lanes, Jungle, Base:
so we have Top and Bot Base. Top, Mid and Bot Lane. Top Blue Jungle, Top Red Jungle Bot Red jungle and Bot Blue Jungle. Now we know the map part we need know about structures on every lane have 4 turrets 2 for bot 2 for top and every base have 5 turrets 3 inhibitors and one nexus.

The Main strategy if your aim is win. Destroy the nexus faster then your enemy destroy your. Some Sub strategy get more minions more structures or more kills before your enemy.
In the focus of Katarina you can reach 2 sub strategy get farm and kills.( before ages i have build for the sub strategy get structures AFYC(as fastest you can) . yes that mean ad kata...)

In game you need to know before you pick champ more then the main meta picks (bot top mid jungle support)

in this game every champ have role not riot named role them not really tacticaly just they are just marketing names so you need to know some real tactic names for good strategy.

Melee these champions basic attack are melee so they are effective in melee range.

Footman: they are not to fast but tanky and really good support of ranged and good againts light cavarly
Light Cavarly: they are the fastest and equipped whit heavy ability damage they are effective againts ranged
Heavy Cavarly: they are fast and tanky and have some damage by ability and base againts anything in their way they are effective againts footman.(or anything fck they are heavy cavarly man!)

Ranged these champions basic attack are ranged and they are effective show in range

Short: his basic attack is short but they have ability damage what can give them longer range
Long: his basic attack is long and they got long ranged ability.
Far: his basic attack long or short but he has got more ranged attack then long range.

these champs are carrier's of ability damage or attack damage some of them called by the name of adc or apc. so nomen est omen they have ******** damage but they are not really tanky so easy to kill them if you can reach them.(fck they are supported.)

in every team we need the good blance of these roles like an army...

in this version assasin are buffed so your rely on them and you will need 2-3 stun to ****er enemy assasin.

Rune and Mastery

Runes and Mastery have two kind deep or wide. The deep mean you focus on one thing and try to build on that way. The Wide mean you have little bit of everything and you try to keep your build flexible on all situation. So you need they support each other. In this section i will talk about how the masterys and runes can cooperate and my opinion about mastery's why i use them in game.

And in this question what do you want from your champ exactly Katarina?
whats is your chocies? what you can build?
You know Katarina is an Assasin thats mean you need damage to take down enemy carry's so if want this role you need damage on your enemy. for skill based damage the tow best kind of damage is the Burst(deathfire touch) and the Thunder(Thunderlord's Decree)

Burst: try this if you wanna go in and kill all of them or kill them one by one!! you need more ap pick this if your enemy is paper and you will need "mejai" actually it is out of date

Thunder: try this if you want to play offensive whit pokes and fight whit the team all the time. now this work better movement speed will good option to evade enemy and you need to be fast as the thunder whit jumps like "yondaime hokage"(i know some of you like naruto fater so now you can try out how his ability work whit the seald knifes) maybe kushina have the same abilitys... i dont know...

in this version of game 7.1 the thunder is stronger bc now the blue dont give 10% and you can't double buff your champ whit blue and scorceres potion.

what runes will the best for kata???

if you want a special build for katarina you can only focus one of his skill

Items

This is the hardest part of game. And before you buy somethin you need to know more about your items what they do and what they support in your game.
What i want to buy? what i will be need on lane? Is that item to expensive on early? Is that iteam really percious or it useless??

when you build your items you need to know what your runes support for example if you have magic penetration and you build the maxium whit items you will don't have so much ability power but this little will be so effective. So In this section i will tell my opinion about all of the items what i use in game and their actually effectivenes.
