That's called playing correctly.

You'd see that more often if you last hit with any ranged character.

No one in the entire game has an Auto Attack animation as fast and accurate as corki.

He has the largest window of opportunity for last hitting creeps, AND he is ranged.

Have you seen Kog Maw's new attack?

I have, and i would argue that it's even better than Kog Maw's. (It is super close though.)

They really need to update most Ranged and Melee AD's attack animations, so that they aren't so delayed and clunky.

Untrue. At Dreamhack it was about 65 cs in 10 minutes.

That's not relative to anything though. Corki has a fast attack animation..which... makes him... OP? Not really, Ashe, Caitly, Tristana, Kog Maw all have fast attack animations, it doesn't affect their ability to farm at all, that's just called last hitting. The numbers were exaggerated in his post, greatly so but it really doesn't change the fact that good play is what gets you farmed, not having an "OP auto attack animation"

The problem isn't his ability to last hit, it's his ability to farm.

He can last hit + harass simultaneously with phosp. bomb, decent damage and low CD, and with missiles later

He can clear waves fast with gatling gun + phosp bomb, if he needs to.

He can escape almost every gank imaginable with valkyrie.

Phosp. Bomb and missiles give him enough damage in lane that it's hard to do poorly in lane, and lane dominance isn't too hard either.

When all of this adds up, it makes a champ that can basically CS all game long if he wants, then have many great items to destroy his enemies late game. This makes him uncounterable early game, with lots of damage late game.

the German Gamed! team had a corki vs CLG who had 101 cs at 12:30.

There are only about 160 possible creeps at that point in the game.

But Corki does have an excellent auto attack animation, something that keeps a lot of champions down in terms of viability.

Poppy would be an absolute monster if it was easier to farm with her.

That's not what YOU were complaining about, though. You're saying that his attack animation was "OP" which I instantly infer from my mind "Well what could be the main source of complaining about an attack animation.. does it make him last hit better? That makes no ****ing sense because last hitting isn't relative to the animation, it's more or less just the player's ability to play well."

This other information that you've just brought in to help support your argument is completely out of context because I was responding to the fact that you say his animation is really fast. The conversation feels like this:

"Bro his attack animation is so OP"
"Well like, what does he last hit better or some ****?"
"I mean he farms like a beast with his Q and R and is ungankable with his W"
"Wtf, where's the attack animation in all this?"
