Despite possessing seemingly powerful abilities like a high-sustain passive, a seemingly potent ultimate, and crowd control, the League of Legends champion "Desert死神 (Dog Head)" remains consistently weak in competitive play. This article dissects the champion's kit, arguing that while individual skills possess potential, their overall synergy and early-game weaknesses significantly hinder their effectiveness, ultimately contributing to their lack of prominence in professional settings.
The champion "Desert死神 (Dog Head)," often referred to as "Dog Head," presents a fascinating paradox in League of Legends. On paper, the champion's kit boasts powerful elements, including a seemingly potent ultimate, crowd control, and a passive that promises sustained health. However, in practice, the champion struggles to translate this potential into consistent competitive success. This article will delve into the specific reasons behind this discrepancy.
The champion's passive, a 20% health-steal, is frequently cited as a significant weakness. While providing some survivability, its effectiveness is often considered underwhelming, especially in the early game. The article contends that this passive is akin to a very basic form of sustain, far from the potent survivability of champions like the one mentioned. The article highlights how the champion's early-game weakness is exacerbated by the overall low effectiveness of the Q ability.
The Q ability, despite its theoretical potential for immense damage scaling, falls short in practice. The article argues that the damage output from the Q ability remains quite low compared to other champions' abilities in the early and mid-game, especially when compared to champions with shorter cooldowns and comparable scaling. Furthermore, the article points out that the Q ability's damage scaling, while appearing impressive, ultimately plateaus before reaching a truly impactful level, making it far less effective than many other champions' abilities, especially in the early game, even when compared to other champions with comparable scaling.
The champion's E ability, another point of contention, is deemed ineffective due to its limitations in early-game lane presence. The article argues that the champion's lack of early-game lane dominance stems from the fact that the E ability is not strong enough to compensate for the champion's overall weakness. This further contributes to the champion's inability to achieve a strong presence in lane battles.
Ultimately, while the champion's abilities individually possess potential, their synergy and overall execution in a team setting fall short. The article concludes that the champion's early-game weakness, combined with the relatively mediocre damage output of its key abilities, hinders its ability to effectively compete in professional play. The champion's struggles stem from a lack of impactful early-game presence and a relatively underwhelming damage output compared to champions with more efficient early-game and mid-game scaling. This combination of factors contributes to the champion's lack of prominence in professional settings.
