Poll Question:


Is Zhong Kui OP?
He is OP
He is just fine

I haven't been on the site in a few days and was wondering if anyone else has come to the same conclusion. Zhong Kui is OP (it even rhymes). In my first game I played with him going mid on conquest, I went 19-4-4. His 3 is crazy good, and on top of that, he has a great heal, which also gives him protections.

Does anyone else agree that he is OP (rhyming again)? If so, do you think he will get nerfed in the next patch?

Also, I don't see the poll function used enough, so I've decided to give it a whirl.

No , he seems just fine to me .I tried ZK in practice thinking he will be overpowered and I will buy him and destroy everything in the coming matches but he is not .

the only unbalanced part of him is that passive 60 protections is to much

Zhong Kui is not overpowered. First of all he is one of the most squishiest melee mages (even much weaker than Freya) because of his Magical Protection being 30(+0) and his Physical Protection being 8(+3). Secondly, he is melee which is significantly harder to win, or even survive early-to-mid game. Plus he can easily be taken out by someone like Kali or any other god with a movement speed buff.

I only have two problems with him. First his passive gives him way to much protection when full and the range of his ultimate makes it way to hard to avoid unless you have a leap (even then its difficult), Its also superior in every way compared to Frenzy.

i personally think he is fine (because i smash face with him regularly >=)) but people are complaining about 2 things mostly.

1: his passive protections

2: his heal/sustain

sadly my nerfing senses are tingling and i am expecting him to get hit buy the nerf hammer quite hard this week.

they will nerf the protections to about 30-40-45 (my guess is 30 with a buff the following week to 40-45)

then they will nerf the heal buy 15%-25% and see how both skills effect the game for the following weak.

i would also expect an addition to the mana cost of his abilities they are quite cheap.

I think he is fine with his skill set and mechanics just the protections feel too much even at start, first few minutes and the ult has this stupid CC immunity which I don't freakin get it.

I think i'm okay if they take the CC immunity from Zhong Kui cause as long as its ghost still come out, it is still useful

here are my 2 eurocents. zhong kui is NOT OP but like all new gods he is defentely strong at not fully in balence.

to balence him he needs this.

A BIGGER PASSIVE BAG. now what i mean is that instead of 3 protection per stack ending at 20 stacks how about 2 protection per stack ending at 30. this would mean that it takes a bit longer to fill it every time he empties it. that means that you can poke him easier and can kill him before mid game.

A BIGGER SLOW. now don't be confused. i mean that 20% slow over 6 seconds is to much. i think he needs a bigger slow that takes 4 seconds. just SET amount of slow for SET amount of time. bigger slow but shorter.

and maybe not cc immume for the full duriation but just for 3/4 of the time.
never forget dawngate and never forgive EA. Freia will hunt them for eternity.
