1) Release of BOTRK - Huge buff to autoattack ADCs
2) Health value greatly increased - true damage value decreased
3) Corki nerfs - passive doesnt proc on crits.

Overall Corki is a suboptimal pick in the current meta because
1) His range is horribad
2) His mana costs are too costly early on
3) Abilities require him to be close up, which he cannot be.
4) Poke is weak

He's in a bad spot now. His main problem is his early game, which Riot is currently fixing with the mana cost buffs.

The Triforce nerfs were probably the biggest thing that killed him. Somewhat ironic as that was mostly intended for Ezreal who is still doing great.

High mana costs early crush him, outplayed early by a lot of ADC's.
As a jungler, preying on Corki is so easy. Walk into the lane and that's 100 mana gone. Do it again in 20 seconds and that's another 100 gone. Made it difficult for him to lane, pretty much zoning himself.

Quinn is not even close to popular though and Ezreal with blue build scales much better than Corki. Ezreal is pretty much an unkillable god of poke and kite late game, Graves has an AS steroid and high AD scalings, Draven has an AS steroid and super high AD scalings.


Quinn is gaining popularity after her recent string of buffs but I'm okay with excluding her because she isn't that popular although I do think she will be in the future

In regards to Ezreal scaling is not the same as utility. Yes Ezreal has good poke and unrivaled kite potential, but his actually damage and scaling (late game) is atrocious, especially blue build.

Graves has high ad scalings sure, but how well do those translate on an 8 second cooldown Q and an 80 second cooldown ultimate. Those can each be used once a fight? Graves absolutely sucks at killing tanks, to do so he pretty much has to build into Blade of the Ruined King which takes away from his good scaling. Graves also has extremely short range. I'm not saying graves is bad, but his late game is as bad, maybe even worse, than corki's

Why even consider draven's AS buff. It's hardly even an aspect of his kit and is more often used for movement speed to catch the axes than the actual attack speed. Sure draven has good scaling and good damage, but how does that actually perform in a team fight? if he's unable to catch his axes, he's garbage. almost forgot how bad his ultimate is late game too

My friend Anoladoran AKA, Best Quinn NA, AKA Best Draven NA, AKA Mr #IownfabbyalldayinsoloQ, is working on a ''top secret OP freelo Corki'' build.

It consists of Blade of the Ruined King, Iceborn Gauntlet, Spirit of the Elder Lizard, Berserker's Greaves and two other items that I can't remember. Apparently one of his Diamond I friends used that Corki build in his diamond I promos and got challenger. LOL.
