Holy mother of balls, i love this bird (partially because i just won a 4 v5 ranked with her, but wahtever).

I mean, why isn't she seriously picked more often? Sure she isn't a mobility creep, but ... 100% AP ratio on 2 spells, an area of effect DPS that can be vastly enhanced with Liandry's. Also, tactical terrain that can be gamechanging.

If you pick ignite on her you can get easy fbs especially on low elo, since people get caught off guard by sudden walls into tower range. And even if it's not the bottom of elotopia, she has the safest poke combo there is R + E and Q or W if they try to retaliate)

She brings as much utility as an average support and doesn't even need ot be fed to deal crazy amounts of damage.

Also, I don't see her having many counters other than LeBronze, Syndra or Cass (and anything else that can deal either targeted burst or continous damage). all you need to do is dodge spells and throw out yours. the only hard thing is early farming since last hitting is a pain in the ass., but that's about it
