(1) You have every right to dislike Kog'Maw (2) A carry really is only good for damage because that's the function of a carry, to decimate the other team. (3) If he had real CC, like a stun, that would be OP (3) He has no escape to compensate for his raw power (unless you're smart, then you can get away, sometimes). If you want carrying capacity with an escape, go play Vayne. (4) He's supposed to have low health, how else are you gonna kill him? (5) The slow movement speed is, again, supposed to punish stupid Kog players for overextending or for not staying close to his tank or just playing dumb in general. Most of the time, if it's 1 v 1, you don't need all that movement speed because Kog can kill whomever he might might (I'm not saying all the time). (6) Bio-Arcane Barrage can't last forever, you know, that'd be OP as hell (7) Caustic Spittle eats away BOTH defenses and gives you attack speed but is short range, I get that, but in a team fight, you're not XIN ZHAO, okay? Xin gets in there and is in the middle of the fight. Caustic Spittle has enough range for you to focus a carry down but you have to stay close to your tank or be damn sure you can survive against anyone who might come at you. This is incentive to keep Kog alive, for the debuff on the carry so that everyone can kill that carry fast. (8) Nidalee's spear, to have full effect, has to be far away. It's mostly luck, sorry to say. Kog does the same damage no matter where you strike the opponent (9) Kog is supposed to be high risk, high reward. If you can't deal with that, then that's fine, I personally am an atrocious player as Shen.
