Has Karthus gotten back to being a viable mid again?

He was always viable but he isn't a top pick. His laning is really safe unless you get counter-picked. He is super item dependent but his late game is still godly.

I'll have to disagree there. Literally anything with a gap closer instantly makes laning a terror for him. Assassins in general just make life hell for a Karthus. Plus if the jungler has a brain at all, he'll know to focus the Karthus lane. But as we all know, soloq junglers don't have brains.

Karthus is one of the safest mid lanes in the game. His Q range makes him impossible to harass if you aren't retarded. He safely farms outside of the range of most assasins. He is weak to burst in lane, but karthus should always be too close to his tower for the enemy assassin to go all in. For good karthus players the enemy laner doesn't even exist, its all farm and map awareness. The obvious exception to all of this is leblanc. She can close the distance hard, silence, and then burst the frick out of karth.

It's also one of the hardest skillshots to land in the game. But like I said earlier, a godlike Karthus will do well, but 95% of players aren't a godlike Karthus.

Idk about one of the hardest but yeah you have to hit skill shots at some point. However playing karthus I can farm and not land a single q on my lane opponent and still win lane hard. Karthus honestly shouldn't ever fight his lane opponent unless they are low or have a jungle gank.

Both are farm lanes for karthus. If we assume karth is shitty then yeah he will lose.

Kassadin

Maybe old kassadin, but Karthus stomps new kassadin.

Honestly the only people who rape karth are fizz and leblanc.

I love people who know they have to be somewhere in like 20-25 minutes and still queue up for ranked. We were stomping the game for 25 minutes, all the while Vlad bitching about us needing to go faster because he had to go somewhere. He eventually afks and we slowly get pushed back after having their inhibs at one point. Sigh. Rip 6 game winning streak.

Bugs the shite outta me too bro. In ranked no less? Buncha dumb fricks in the LoL community.

On a side note, Jinx is now my new favorite champion.

won 6 straight, lost two, won 3 straight, lost 3. I can't fricking get to silver 2 promos.

I don't understand how I'm around 1400 elo and I still get matched with top laners who have 26 cs at 15 minutes.

After playing new Karth on the PBE his AA is more responsive but still bottom tier in league. His q is also way more responsive and seems a lot easier to hit.

It does seem strange. Some games I'll get pitted against people who I completely outclass, and others I get my shite pushed in because the enemy team is clearly out of my league.
