Oh U N...you just did the argumentative equivalent of accidently shooting yourslef in the nuts....

"how comes she is picked in competitive just about 0% of the time?"

....you accuse me of using false statistics (even tho I just said her win/band/pickrate in relation ot each other seems awfully high), while you use the most overused and most invalid argument ever put in writing...

Kata, like Riven, like Fiora, like Yi, like Nasus, etc.is a champion who is easy shut down by organized teamplay. Katarina (and associates) rely on snowballing...snowballing doesn't happen in competitive, simply because they won't let you.

Kata is strong in soloq (4th highest winrate doesn't come from being a champion that'S easily shut down all by yourself). Why? because you can't organize your team that easily and can't properly commmunicate (talking > typing). The thing about Kata is...she kills that fast and is that mobile that she'S WAY harder to beat down than the others.

Also, she was picked once in a tournament I remember that quite clearly.

Also, to finish this up: Even Riot seems to recognize that she's not all that balanced, so they nerfed her HP to give people a better chance to shut her down in lane.
