Its pretty stupid build

Me and Wrath kinda agreed, (vaguely) hybrid does more damage on q and r, ap more on shunpo, and ap is probably more viable, but hybrid is viable as well.

Haha Wrath glad u agree on the insane damage part :p! Yes i have tried but i'm liking this more ^^.
Enjoy your day!

BTW LEAM, IT SEEMS LIKE IT DOES INSANE DAMAGE, BUT HAVE YOU EVER TRIED PURE AP?

IT DOES MORE ^^

AND BTW I'M TALKING IN CAPS COZ IT IS CAPS LOCK DAY <3

kk, first I wasn't using any masteries or runes, mrp, nothing, just straight ap and base damage. If you want to though, fair enough. Also if you want we can take this to pm so we don't clutter this guys guide up anymore, idc, which i'm about to do.

dudes can u quit the arguments. U are having big *** argument about builds that's not even this one.. Discuss this in PM's or something. And Nighthawk, Rageblade on Kata isn't that good, i tested it and it just wasn't enough. double Gunblade is better then.

I think that PROBABLY AP Kata is "the way to go" BUT my build as Hybrid Kata IF performed good (with stacking numbers of SotO) REALLY does insane damage. Wrath, I think u might underestimate the power off AD on Kata. It is really powerfull and i facerape almost every game with it.. so yes it is extremely viable.

I will do a game later on and do the math myself for this build. Its gonna be awesome :).

btw sry leam about this discussion in your guide comments xD

it had to be done :O

^that

kk so you made me crunch the numbers for around half an hour and here is what I found out:

idk wtf you did, but it doesn't even seem like you did the maths for rageblade stacks, you just assume it does more dmg...

well you wrong son.


and don't try to tell me I did the math wrong, I am a straight A Honors/AP math student, and this was simple arithmetic zzzzz

First off, my build, using my AP quints and mastery setup, provides approximately 675 AP, and 60 AD, not including blue elixirs (which you should be getting) which would bring you to around 715 AP.

All of this is ignoring magic pen btw, considering we both have void staff, same masteries and runes, etc. The only diff. would be you have sorcs, which actually diminish the effect of the void staff, so I would have more magic pen too if you wanna get real specific. As well, since I will be getitng CDR boots and you not, I can Shunpo nuke and Q more often than you, dishing out more overall damage.

With my build, the initial Q hits for 484.25.

Shunpo hits for 746.25.

Each dagger from my ult hits for 278.75, meaning 2787.5 maximum per target.


With your build, with full rageblade stacks, once again considering we have same runes and masteries and whatnot, you will have 95 AD and 551.62 AP.

Your initial Q hits for 469.07.

Your Shunpo hits for 653.72, on a higher cooldown may I add.

Each dagger from your ult hits for 265.405, resulting in max of 2654.05 per target.

Obviously, if this was with full rageblade stacks, without will be even more drastic (which will be the usual scenario when taking rageblade on Kat).

95 AD, 486.72 AP.

Q hits for 446.35.

Shunpo, 605.

Each ulti dagger, 249.18, each target max of 2491.8.


With 2 gunblades the results are similar.

120 AD, 527.28 AP

Q = 480.55

E = 635.46

R = 271.82 per dagger, 2718.2 max per target.

Boy, I take my Katarina seriously.

Come at me brah, any more builds you want me to calculate?

I'm pretty sure you are leaving something out.

brb doing the maths T_T

I love how it's just a normal build but there's a huge argument in the comments.

Nice job dude, you have my upvote.

You seem to be ignoring the facts again. >.>

In your build, Q does 435 damage (48 from AD, 187.2 from AP)
In mine, Q does 410 without any rageblade stacks (76 from AD, 134.55 from AP)

In your build, E does 708 damage.
In mine, E does 576 without any rageblade stacks.

In your build, R does 331 damage.
In mine, R does 297 damage with out rageblade stacks.

With rage blade stacks I get more damage on Q and R and about 100 less damage on E.

If I replace Rageblade with another Gunblade I get more damage on Q and R and about 100 less damage on Shunpo.
