When League of Legends newest champion, Akshan, was announced on July 7th, the community erupted about him having what looks like the most broken ability in years.
It’s supposed to be a normal ability – but it’s really not. In fact, this one move might be completely busted, possibly making Akshan the most broken champion League has ever seen — and people are pissed.

Viego is so bugged he tp d in valorant
They could change it to a temp revive like Sion's if they want to keep the revive that much, but a full revive with no drawbacks is too damn nutty op. Even Aatrox's self revive ult was removed months after his rework because it was too op. Imagine an entire team reviving after a close teamfight.
So if akshan kills the enemy champion with a Quadra kill then all is negated?
Did you know that Udyr's E slaps?
Revive used to be a summoner spell with a 5 min cooldown…. just saying
Ah and people forget, you can be invisible permanent when near terrain…. who does that
8:08 ROFL classic Meteos xDDDD
im so glad I quit league… everything is either useless or busted including players
what a fucking joke riot release, the rest of his kit is kinda meh, but his w is super broken and I can see and experienced how broken it is, especially at late game when the death timer is close to 1 minute, with prolong team fight, turning the fight upside down and do objective is super easy, trading teammate is about to be a new trend. You may not see it in lower elo, but in the professional stage, everything is being min max, anything can be exploit to get the win. This is one of the exploitable. like I said above, akshan himself is not a strong champ, but his w is very impactful in a way that it affect the balance of the macro game the way leagues has always trying to keep, this is just too far. This is not some ability that has OP damage, this is tampering with the core mechanic of the game, thats why its so different from other previous champ.
We obviously need progression and new ideas in games like league but i can see a prpblem in terms of watchability arising if it isn‘t already here. I played league extensively throughout the years and also play WoW PvP witz some friends. WoW pvp has so many different abilities that it makes it awful to watch and nobody really can tell whats going on if you’re a viewer. I used to enjoy watching League because i understood what happened the game deciding abilities were well visible and it was easy to understand what the champs did who follow up. Nowadays Let‘s take kai‘sa for an example, she jumps onto someone and then the person melts away and the only visible aspects of the one-shot were some laser poops and a stacking thing below the champ that you can‘t see in a teamfight anyway and kai‘sa is probably a minor offender of the 200 year meme. Too many complicated or badly visible abilities ruin the viewer experience. In my opinion it will hurt league more in the long run than it will help them
i also like how lvl 1 he outrades bruisers like aatrox riven even after they hit their stun. its setts passive on steroids. your dps is higher than the average champ and you get a fair ass barrier
i miss the revive spell we had back before season3
10:30 >. a
GURA???
I guess no one here played Mercy back in the 5 insta res days?
You it sounds OP but the enemy team has someone one shot you then isn't OP… so is Actually is balance between but hi…or after big fight recall and start over again. Honestly I see 99% ban on this character character
Not just kills it says takedown so that mean an assist right?
Y'know what, the game is improving. but I think the LoL gonna die because of what? smurf, boosted account, and Toxicity. nevertheless, Akshan is not completely broken. I mean if you are carried Irelia kills Camille but the Akshan complete 0/0 want to sneak you can still have an advantage. it's not like Lillia passive burning you 3 seconds. and If Akshan gonna be nerfed it's prolly the cooldown passive W. nothing too strong
10:30 whats gura doing?
10:30 who did this XD
Only a matter of time until we hear “Yasuo revive me”
Mabye put a huge cooldown on the revive skill?
that way a single team fight won’t decide the whole match
new champion GabeN: passive buyback: enables team to buyback
God you guys never stop whining
200 years part 2 video coming soon
Buyback send hugs.
wasn’t the most broken the ability that can deal up to 3000 true damage if you build enough health?
I remember when riot didn’t require 1 thousand people so they wouldn’t confused each other with too many…..OH wait…..
Game company after releasing broken paid character: Oops! We made a mistake, thank$ for your patience.
Riot Games makes money off OP champions and the controversy they cause. People race to buy the next broken character, they make tons of money every time this stunt is pulled. Then they say, "Oops! We didn't mean to do that!" After they're satisfied with the little surge of income. It's a setup. They're crooks. Think about it, this keeps happening? Over and over? With each new Character. I think I see a pattern.
i put all his abilitys on a google doc and turned it in for my english final, i passed with flying colors
The most broken Ability was Morde ult, and then Sylas ult, then viego passive.
And then, Akshan is considered one of the worst champions ever released…
he didn’t even talk about the perma invis on W, the resets on E and the execute on R
Been a while since I played LoL, are we back to 200 years?
Edit: Where's Ryu?
Sooo riot decided to add Jesus in their game e
come check out qhira's twirl in heroes of the storm 🙄
yes yes yes
But riot will make even more broken ability somehow
Akshan: can revive his team
Udyr: run and stun
Akshan can revive his team
but Aatrox revive cant stay
I think he can actually revive himself but he needs three days
well no surprise here. This game always some of the worst balance ive ever seen in a game… absolute dogshit
its just mercy from overwatch pre nerf, but in league
4 weeks later he's stupid broken and a ton of people are mastery 7 with him
no
When twisted fate was able to teleport anywhere on the map lvl 1 (it was a skill, before his ult) place a ward and his whole team teleports to it. (Enemy wasnt able to see the teleport back than.) Insta gank lvl 1.
Mah main
Mah main 😃
don't blame me when I yell Sasageyo as i zipline
Vayne's W ONLY has a passive
Akshan? more like HACKS ON
Aatrox revive*
Riot: too op lets remove it
Also riot: lets make a team revive
