''Yeah this is long. But if you like Sejuani (like I do) it could be worth reading. If not and tl;dr then the summary is that she can be pretty useful if played right.''

I love Sejuani - I think she's a great champ. Against normals, I win more often than losing and end up being the core of my team and against interbots I rarely die a single time and almost always score the most kills (around 30 or so before the game ends). However, she has two problems that make people hate her: people don't know how to use her and her innate is garbage.

Her innate has a slight advantage in early game IF you're laning bot (which you probably shouldn't be doing) because it makes it much easier to score kills due to your laning partner's ability to jump on a slowed champion.

People will argue that her passive synergizes with slowing effects - this is simply untrue. Why? Because slowing effects don't stack additively, they stack multiplicatively. This means that any additional slows you add to her build lose their effectiveness. I used to use Frozen Mallet on her for the added health and then I found a much better build that made her quite dangerous.

Two words: Phantom Dancer. That's right. Here's how I build her: Regrowth Pendant > Philo Stone > Ionians > Warmog's > Atma's > Phantom Dancer. Not only does this build give her a great deal of lane sustain and her W packs a punch, but because of the speed from the PD, you are essentially attached to whoever you're hitting due to the repeatedly proccing slow from her innate. And due to the huge health, the Atma's is dealing a ton of damage. By late game, opponents find me very threatening. In team fights I pop R and then proceed to find the carry or other squishies, pop W and burn them down in seconds.

Now you can supplement the PD for a Trinity Force instead and it can be effective, however, it's a great deal more gold and I find the added speed and crit from PD to be much more useful.

To end, I believe Sejuani only needs a slight buff: change her innate to apply Frost as a splash effect. She would maintain her slowing ability in a 1v1 and actually be much more useful in team fights beyond simply her W and R. Other than that I think she's great.
