The League of Legends community is abuzz with concern regarding the continued dominance of K’sante, the formidable Shuriman tank, in professional play, even as Season 2024 unfolds.
At its core, League of Legends thrives on competition, igniting spirited rivalries as teams of 5 for victory on the Rift. Throughout the League history, certain champions have cemented their status as fixtures within the realm of pro play. Among them, K’sante stands as a towering presence, having commanded the spotlight since his debut in 2022.
K’Sante presence in League of Legends pro play
As Season 14 dawns, apprehension mounts among players who fear that K’sante’s indomitable presence may persist unabated in the presence of League competition.
According to the Reddit post, it indicates that K’sante boasted an imposing 65% presence in professional play during the preceding season, a figure that has only surged further in Season 14, now reaching an astonishing 70% dominance.
“I don’t mind K’Sante that much I guess but I am getting so sick of him. He’s always meta, always the best blind pick top laner. He’s just a stonewall champion top lane that can lane against anything and it makes games very boring imo…”
“when a pro makes a good play with Ksante I never think they played well, I always think it’s just the champion. Similar to Zeri. Zeri plays aren’t hype for me, if the champ is good she just goes crazy.”
Fingers point accusatorily at Riot Games, with some players asserting that the champion’s overwhelming strength stems from an overly intricate kit, rendering him virtually “broken” in the competitive arena.
Amidst the clamor, uncertainty shrouds the prospect of intervention from the developers. While K’sante’s stature in solo queue appears less formidable, the delicate dance of balance in professional play presents a daunting challenge for the development team.
“Yeah he is just perfect for proplay he has everything you need from a toplaner he builds full tank but can deal bruiser dmg in ult.”
Whether the developers possess a secret arsenal of adjustments to temper K’sante’s unrivaled presence remains unknown, casting a shadow of anticipation over the League community as they await potential updates and adjustments.
