I’m really kind of clicking with Janna.

I really don’t know why. I feel like I’m more in control with Nidalee, but I bought her and started using her, and I keep winning, so I must be doing something right.

Mainly, it’s her Howling Gale that’s so powerful. It’s a skill shot, but it’s so obscenely versatile it’s really all she needs. You can fire it immediately just to slow down enemies, or charge it up to decimate minions. You can also let it charge to set up traps, either into the Gale, or causing them to attempt to get out of the way and run into allies. Plus, it just does a ton of damage. Every time I pick someone off with it, I feel awesome, and since it goes through enemy groups, unlike, say, Nidalee’s Javelin Toss, I can do that more often.

Her other moves are just okay. Zephyr never does enough damage for my tastes. The slow effect is nice, but it’s at such a short range I rarely find it useful. It’s much more useful just as it’s passive ability to move faster and walk through enemy troops. Eye of the Storm works great offensively, helping Janna take towers down. I always forget to use it defensively, though, as it also throws up a damage shield. The games where I remember are the games I do the best.

Really, though, it’s Monsoon I don’t get. Monsoon recharges fast and does decent healing, although it’s HoT which is less useful. It also pushes enemies away. However, it just rarely seems useful. I get the most mileage out of it throwing it down after a tough, multi-person fight and healing my side. It certainly isn’t an “oh shit” button, so it doesn’t help me escape very well. It still kind of baffles me.

Still, I like her. He’s a pure spellcaster I get, which is nice. I need to remember to pick up Kage’s Lucky Pick more often, though. That’s so perfect for her. Yeah, that’s right, I’m also tailoring my in-game builds, too. I am kind of getting super into League of Legends.

Super. Super.
