Let's see... many say Sivir is a "bulky DPS"... well let's see what does a champ need to be a succesful bulky DPS... 1. Some awesome self-sustain through self-heals, self damage shields,or self armor/mdef increase.... Does Sivir have any of these in her BASE skill-kit? A single spell block once every 15 or so secons is not really sufficient - if you want a champ with this see: Nasus-Innate, jarvanIV passive armor, Garen-passive Armor, Udyr-DamageShield, Irelia- passive 24/7 working CC reduction, Noc-SelfHeal + Spell Shield that ADDS ATTACK SPEED!!!, LeeSinga' - Self heal+Damage Shield,FagPlank SelfHeal+CC"cleanse", WW - Double Self-heal: Q and innate...... So -1 to Sivir in this aspect. - -Most bulky DPS-es get a nice HP increase per level - does this apply to Sivir? No.... So -2 to Sivir. The above mentioned other champ are somewhat "more beefy" even without extra Hp items - not significantly, but still.... - -Bulky DPS-es have fast-spammable gap-closers, that hastes them, blinks them and they can "spam" it every 10-15 seconds at least... Does Sivir have something like this? No... so -3 to Sivir. - - Most Bulky DPS-es have built in CC-s like Slows, Cripples, Stuns,, Fears, knock-ups...Does Sivir have any of these? NOOO ... so -4 to Sivir... - - Don't take me wrong, I LOVE SIVIR, SHE IS ONE OF MY MAINS... BUT!!!!..... Althought SE SHOULD be BUILT BULKY or else if she's a "glass cannon" she'll be "insta-raped" at the beginning of the Team Fight with some well coordinated focus-fire, cause of her relatively low 1st hit range, SHE will NEVER be a true BULKY DPS, cause she LACKS the most important feats of a "Superior Bulky DPS". - Don't tell me that she has a superior range, thanks to Rikochet, cause even though the subsequent hits travel further on, if you want to hit the first target, you still have to move in close, and if the enemy is not silly, the'll use this against you immediately.....
