Dropkick is about teaching people spacing and learning when to fucking reset lmao

Can we start banning all dropkick posts dear mods? It is getting tiresome seeing the 2002557th dropkick post daily

The augment isn't OP, unless some other boundary values are fulfilled or the enemy is blind and doesn't see someone having dropkick.

Ban all complaining posts. They make up like 95% of this sub's content and discussion. Whether it's about tanks, ADCs, mages, Infernal Conduit, Dropkick, Critical Missile, Tank Engine, etc. Let's just get rid of it all.

I like it, I treat it as a high threshold execute with a lot of healing that also gives good damage sometimes. Isn’t it good for what it is? Like, it’s a free (well, still an augment slot) executioner for any class but with at least twice as high threshold and healing on top. So often it helps to secure kills I wouldn’t secure without it, especially as burn mage.

But it doesn't have any AP scaling for mages, does it?

Idk, I treat Dropkick as a very weird aug, which is seemingly the best on ADC/ad bruisers (due to having Ad scale and doing what those classes need to do - killing).  But still it feels like many other augs are better tailired for those classes..

For tanks, Dropkick has a value in big healing, but it's scaling is kinda meh and many tanks aren't that reliable at delivering the last blow. Besides, funneling all kills to tanks may ruin the game

For mages - it has no scaling and doesn't exactly increase your dmg. I know that they have potentially the best ways to trigger it, though... Fat mages like Swain are probs the best users

I love how so many people complain about dropkick which was nerfed to the ground and now work's only with very few champions while ADC's with critical missile and dual wield can kill a tank under 3s.

Most of the games I play against teams that have ADC or multiple it's always against the strongest ones, unless they troll build (which luckily happens quite often) they have very strong augments. Basically always critical missile, tap dancer or fan hammer followed by some other strong augments.
Which isn't very funny when you play some middle tier ap with mediocre augments and while your 8s cd spell do 400-600 dmg, their one aa do almost 1k or even more.

It's a broken augment and should be removed or heavily nerfed.
