I have no idea what assumptions you think I'm making, but I'm not making any. Please point them out, telling me that I'm doing something without actually telling me what I'm doing is the opposite of helpful.

If the player sees the Teleport, Twitch obviously has a better chance of escape than Lucian, because he has 4 seconds to use his Q, meaning he'll easily go invisible in time to escape. For Lucian to proc Ardent Blaze's movement speed, he'll have to stand close enough to Kennen for a long enough duration to take probably at least 2 bolts from Slicing Maelstrom without his ultimate, and has a decent chance of dying for it. If the player doesn't see the teleport, unless they're standing right next to the bush the teleport came from, I have no doubt that Twitch can keep out of Kennen's attack range and dodge a Q to get the invisibility and escape easily.

You mention that Twitch relies on extended trades, but I disagree. He relies on poison and stacking, yes, but he relies on getting enough attack speed to assassinate in an extremely quick trade, and staying out of trades beforehand - not because he has bad defense but because he's reliant on a stat which he needs items for. His lack of instant escape tools does not make him frail - especially because his slightly less-than-instant escape tool is so powerful. As for being a squishy, he still has decently high defensive stats, and as for lack of peel, he still has more than others such as Lucian, whom you are implying is far less frail.

I OBVIOUSLY NEED TO CLARIFY SOMETHING HERE. I am not saying Cho'Gath is not slow because of his lack of mobility abilities, and I'm not saying he's super fast because of his decent base movement speed. Here is what I am saying: in every possible way, Cho'Gath is faster than Kog'Maw, yet their descriptions show that Cho is slow and cumbersome yet Kog has a slight lack in speed.

I'm not ignoring build path, but the fact that you are implying that certain champions must get 40% CDR while others should get none is rather subjective in my opinion. I don't doubt that there is a viable 40% CDR build for Graves nor a 0% CDR build for Sion. Build paths weren't intended by Riot, they were suggestions to help display an intended playstyle, but similar playstyles can be achieved with different builds.

Lastly, I request that you look at the comment I made before my previous one. I made a change to it after originally posting which adds clarification to my statement, as well as points out 2 clear discrepancies in what I am being told which I would like to be addressed.

I honestly hate to be condescending as well but I feel like I'm completely being misunderstood and regardless of the fact that this may or may not be condescending (and I promise it's not intended to be), but I am going to now make a list of the problems I would like adressed solely in order to keep away from arguments or misunderstandings.

Firstly, I would like you to either point out where I was making an assumption and what it was and how it was false.

Secondly, I would like you to look at the comment I made before the previous one and read everything after the edit and explain that discrepancy.

Thirdly, I would like you to tell me why Twitch is mentioned as squishy and Ahri is not (more on that in the edit I requested you view).

Fourthly, I would like you to tell me why Cho'Gath's description makes him sound much slower than Kog'Maw's description when he is actually faster.
