    A better comparison for her passive instead of Kindred or Yorick would definitely be Elise. Both Champ's passives are very similar in a lot of ways, that it feels odd that she wasn't given a mention here.

    This is so weird. My first thought when I saw her packmates was also Elise, but I've already watched 5 or 6 videos about Naafiri and not a single one of them mentioned the spiderlings, lol. Maybe Elise has been so long out of meta that everyone forgot about her existence.

By now most people know she's a midlaner, by now a lot of people know her abilities and there is even footage you show of people playing her, so you end up making a lot of assumptions that don't make sense anymore.

    Naafiri is a very nice champ. Her abilities are easy to understand and easy to learn. Her entry skill level is very low, honestly the easiest assassin champ to get into, but her skill cap is much higher than expected due to her lower health and durability compared to all other darkin and even compared to other assassins. Her q will save her on occasion for sure, but if she fails to kill target with her combo, then her damage output drops drastically along with chance of her winning that fight. Ability haste and ad are her two favorite stats to get, as she needs her abilities back quick.

    Although prone to change this is what I’ve gathered when playing her on pbe - her ult only resets *once* and it’s on first kill, no infinite resets - Yes, her dogs can bodyblock skill shots, the amount of naut hooks and morg ball that should have hit me but didn’t is hysterical - She can perfectly build bruiser, although her damage drops off a cliff, it does help her sustain, so it’s a trade off depending on what you need - I don’t think vars mentioned it but hitting with your abilities (and auto I think) on champions reduces the spawn cd of your passive, you land more hits then you spawn more up to a max of 2 dogs and 3 when you’re lvl 9 and higher - her dogs are deceptively tanky, last I checked they can tank more than 1 auto and aoe abilities like morg w deals minimal dmg to them, most if not all single target skill shots one shot them tho like ez q - *IMPORTANT* to pet the good girl you need to combo it, first do ctrl + 1 twice, then same thing for ctrl + 2 (twice) when the headpats are done, then ctrl + 3 (twice) when she’s on her back and then you can keep spamming ctrl 3 to cycle the belly rubs.

I have been maining her for a while and although I love her design and lore I feel like her abilities are fundamentally flawed because Riot keeps insisting that she's an Assassin but she has no escape tools other than just walking away, which makes her pretty useless in the mid to late game given how much burst damage we see at all tiers of play.

    @@dominicguye8058 Her get out of the jail free card is just one small dash on her E (and an R but it's similar to using Master Yi R or Aatrox R to escape, which is not always ideal), and most of the time it isn't going to be enough. Plus, her W screams diver. She has backloaded damage in the form of wolves. If you run out of steam (e.g. burning your E) you can just statcheck with wolves and hope you can out-DPS them. She has some form of sustain, which is shield on R (and slight heal on Q if it counts). Yes, she has no hard CC but some divers can get away by having only one crowd control ability like Rek'Sai, Diana, Wukong, or Renekton (or even Rengar if he doesn't use empowered E) so I don't think it's a requirement as long as you can stick to your enemy and become annoying af. At least she should be put in two categories, as both an assassin and a diver (like Rengar).
