Oh runic echo in lane lol. Anyways, I tried out KAt jungle. It was a nightmare. I had to recall after the red buff and I nearly died. -.- Don't try it pls, it's really bad. And if you actually get invaded, you're probably gonna do nothing from there. Her clearing speed is terrible and her health regen tho....

Runic Echoes is very cheap indeed but I think going Smite for KAt just isn't good just for Runic Echoes. You would rather get TP or something like that because you would obviously sell Runic Echoes later in the game. Even exhaust or Cleanse is better than getting Smite. I know it's for Runic, but...imo it just isn't good. It has 40 less AP and 20 less dmaage for passive. And the worst bit is that this: Hitting a large monster with this effect will restore 18% of your missing mana. super useful passive has been gone to a waste. :/ If it was even cheaper, then maybe, just maybe it is worth it.

Also, I wish Lol made items cheaper for those who don't have mana and so on but then Kat, Akali etc. would be too op. I was thinking of giving the item just a little discount. Teeny weeny would even be nice.
