Its sad that one of my favorite gods just doesn't make the cut. In both lore and looks she just really interesting and it makes me sad that she is currently pretty much a joke in any part of the map so here are a few idea's I had that might help the spider lady see the light of day again.

Passive- I'm actually pretty ok with this as is, not the greatest but not bad at all, maybe buff the flat damage so she can build more tank/bruiser?

Broodlings- This....is not ok, Its plain bad really. Long CD and easy to pop for only 1 spider makes this near useless. How about instead once she gains the ability she internally charges the spiderlings, then spawns then when activated from her position. The number and affects are fine but lets put the spiderling count at lvl.1 2 lvl.3 4 lvl.5 6, less overall spiderlings but spawning 6 of the litle bastards at a time when you need them more than makes up for the loss.

Drain life- This is nearly perfect, it just needs one thing. Range!! Shes melee, more than likely in the jungle, gap closer's are a must. Make this a jump attack (which makes more sense anyway) and a great ganker is born.

Tangled wed- We have spiderlings, we can build items, we have a pull/stun, this is redundant and not in the good way. So lets look at what we already have in terms on a spider we have poison, spiderlings, webs, and a jump. What else are spiders good at? Stealth. So how about we get ditch this and giver her a short invisibility and her next attack puts max poison stacks on her target.

Cocoon- Not even going to touch this, good cc short CD and the ability to separate some on from there team is more than enough.

Those are my thoughts, feel free to comment or give the spider lady your own touch.

Clearly you haven't played Arachne enough. She is the best support ever. Absolutely wrecks the role. Her ability to play as an adc is top tier. She can poop on Ullr with ease. She da best mid laner. Her waveclear is such wow. Solo lane is just plain op. She is like Chaac with a useful ultimate. She is even an alright jungler. Well, if you are playing against the bots. Otherwise she just needs a few buffs.

Clearly the Chaac part was sarcasm. Don't burn me, I'm not a heretic. Yet....

I say remodel her into a more human like spider! Just like what they did with Bastet! :D

Dear god I hope your trolling, she has one of the most interesting models. I just think her legs could be slimmed down, and she could use an Anhur-esque remodel.

Or make black widow (that's the name right?) her default skin like with hades. Problem solved.

I really hope Hi-rez does something with her soon. I love Arachne, especially because of her fun as hell ult, but other than that, she can be a bit underwhelming. She definitely needs working with.

She is one of the best early game junglers, but is weaker later game. all Hi-Rez needs to do is slightly buff her, and she will become a top pick. She already has superb clear and can take GF at level 9, she isn't bad at all.

Note: She's not as good as Ymir.

I want them to make the top half at least more feminine. No purple skin and weird hair! Keep bringing the gimick. Feminize all female characters HiRez! It will bring them "Otakuses" in! They're where the moneys at! :D
