- Ok actually I've played every champ once so first timing isn't really the correct term but I average maybe 3 Katarina games total in the past 2 years.

This title thumbnail combo did great view wise but upset quite a few people so sorry to those Katarina mains nitpicking everything I say or do. Don't worry, Katarina is super duper hard and only the biggest IQ geniuses can play her.
pekin you’re the funniest
@@mattheweveryday I see you main Katarina
thank you far calling me smart Pekin, you're the best, love you ❤
Old
Yes me genius IQ tyty
i remember some years ago pekin got rolled over by a kata and got so pissed off, he then proceeded to pick Kata next game and stomped with it lmao
that ended up being a youtube video as well
Amazing series of events to watch
I remember that. He was soooo mad haha
First Pekin video I ever saw. Great stuff.
Yeah When he aplogized ahead in that video
@@mahmedfarid3201 oh now that you mention that apology lol, i remember it too. but can you blame him? When Kat gets ahead, she becomes one of the most frustrating matchups to face, because theres nothing you can do
Under rated perk to pekin videos, he actually uses the skins in the thumbnail. Nothing worse than seeing a cool thumbnail and then the person is using default skin
Yessir
pekin perks op
Tru
I would say that getting your legs hacked off is worse
I was thinking this yesterday
"She's supposed to be difficult right?" I remember a certain tilted video where you played Katarina. (Paraphrasing) "She made a mistake! She showed up on my screen, so now she's dead!"
The rare Pekin mute in this game
into honor tho :D
Katarina is not a difficult champion yet she's not noob friendly. What makes her difficult is being able to judge fights and situations, when to move, when to go in etc. so any challenger should be able to pick her up, but not every player in a lower rank could.
I love the feeling of immediately picking up a "difficult" champ immediately. Doesn't happen for me often cause I'm bad but those few times. Perfection
immediately immediately
First time i ever played akali i got a pentakill lmao
@@hunterlegg8139lmao
This Darius getting tilted all on his own while his entire team is hard winning is such peak League.
I love the mains going "NooOOoOOoOO KaTArInA Is A hIgH RiSk HigH ReWarD chAmpIoN AnD NOT EaSy".
As if that high risk wasn't "maybe you are less useful in the game", and the reward "Oh you got 3 kills? You end the game".
You have the most serious and well done videos of lol, very didactic thank u
I think you did a rly good job for a first time, it shows you actually analyze and understand what champions you're facing and how they work (which is pretty rare as people just dumb rage on Kata, walking in daggers and wondering why they die).
With that said, the Pyke was rly not playing, giving you the freeest lane while the greatest weakness of Kata is being bullied in lane, having no wave control, being pressured under turret leading to missing cs, and having no roam opportunities.
I feel the only moment where you could have played better if you knew the limits of the champ better, is after 14:44, a lot of free kills opportunities missed
Yesssssss Katarina content! She's such a cool character and since she's so difficult she's really underplayed. You did so well!
lol katarina is not difficult, the only "difficult" part of her is early laning and giving up cs
@@shubhod9569 how many katarina games do you have?
@@Hichi katarina's damage is all point and click and she instantly dashes to her target. Compare that to other assassins like zed or akali that actually have to land skill shots and you'll see katarina is not hard. What is hard about a point and click q, a point and click e that resets, and all your damage coming from R and dagger jumps which are impossible to miss if you're in range of your target?
@@shubhod9569 bro said akali needs skill xd
@@shubhod9569 That wasnt my question, but I guess you kind of answer it in a different way. Ive played Katarina, Zed and Akali and I find Katarina alot harder, but thats my subjective opinion. I love all of them. Katarina needs alot of understanding in terms of wave management, Trading, Powerspikes and Positioning ( especially in teamfights). The dmg Katarina does is lackluster if you play her like you would Zed or Akali. Mechanical execution isnt the only source of difficulty you can have. After playing a champ for a bit, you'll be able execute most champions. The thing with Katarina is ( if you actually play her) that she does not do much dmg if you dont get kills on her, her csing is god awful ( similar to akali there) so you rly have to roam and get the right picks to get strong. Akali and Zed can roam, but most of the time dont have to.
Generally better to rush nashors when running conq because you can stack it quickly weaving in aa’s between ur abilities. Proto is fine with elec but nashors is preferred. Maybe nashor changes make it not worth the rush anymore
Nashors is preferred for all builds unless going AD ofc. It’s practically never better to rush proto first ever since it doesn’t give you anything that nashors doesn’t do better besides the extra dash
The thing about Kat's difficulty is when her WR drops. It's nothing about how much IQ u have
This usually means you dont have the power to all-in someone, and it basically makes her useless.
Basically how to win as a snowball champion who cant snowball.
When she's in a good state, its nice.
so in other words: she’s not difficult at all she just gets nerfed when she’s decent bc she’s the most uncounterable champ in the game so gets complained about immediately
@@jason.s.music. uncounterable???? That's why all the pros play her and she's dominating solo queue at challenger, right?
And its not like PLAYING her is not difficult, it is *extremely* difficult when she's not decent because you have to play almost perfectly to win a fight.
They nerf her until it's barely playable and only then people stop complaining about her in lower elo.
Kat v Pyke is a super Kat favored matchup. Pyke wins lvl 1-2 but pretty much every loses every level after that. It’s a really rough matchup that pyke can only really win by making good roams, and pyke definitely needs maw in this matchup.
Not to downplay Pekin’s achievement of first timing Kat in master elo, but they did get blessed with a pretty easy matchup
Yeah imagine he was just into an irelia haha woulda been a much bigger nightmare
@@emptyarms6113or even yasuo , a good yasuo is a nightmare for kat
I wouldn’t say super favored. Pyke has better sustain and he wins all short trades and can disengage from long trades with one button that kat can’t stop. This pyke is playing ridiculously passively considering ap kat is absolute dog shit pre nashors
that and he played super far up and Jarvin never ganked for the Pyke which would just be free for them early
any day pekin uploads a video is a good day... PS learning kata at the moment
1:16 chess master moment, gullin would be proud
Pekin title: "First timing Kat"
Also Pekin: "now when I used to play her"
First timing in Masters elo*
@@tunahankarakoc3494 yea implying he's first timing kat and doing it in master elo
@@ornq8378 he said old Kata tho
@macky!* except he literally has a video of him playing reworked kat
as Katarina you will generally always outtrade a pyke mid by simply extending the fight to more cooldowns. he has to land everything and you miss mostly everything for him to with the trade so it all comes down to whether you get hit by cc
Love your content bro and that you play games in high elo. I am just a casual silver player but was wondering what site you use to see what builds etc have the highest win rate? Your help would be much appreciated.
I always thought she wasn't hard to play but easy to make mistakes on. Many times I've E'd into certain death because I misjudged the situation.
Honestly that makes sense yeah. Kinda like akali, her mechanics themselves aren't hard to learn, but its very easy to dash/shunpo into like 5 people and get ccd for like 5 minutes lol. I get a lot of mileage off of playing akali slow and carefully, sometimes thats all you need to win thr mental game and get a big lead
I mean that the downside off assassins in general. You need to know your position in teamfights and if you geht caught or fall behind you’re basically useless. That’s why they’re „hard“ to play. It’s decision making.
100%
00:16 she is indeed... a champion
Congrats on 200k
Using a match against the most passive pyke mid player I've ever seen to call kat an easy champion when the difficult part is her unplayable early laning phase is a bit far fetched imo
I really wanted to see you play at least one katarina game 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Were you already at 200k subs or did you reach that today? Congrats!
hey pekin, love your videos. would also love if you could show your runes at the beginning of the video
Don't know what surprises me the most...the fact that the enemy jungle never came to mid lane, the fact that even the support came to mid lane to assist... Of the fact that the enemy midlaner actually let you CS XD
Pekin Woof
(Congrats on 200k)
Runes at 6:14
With Kat you hit your head against the keyboard and get kills.
Change my mind.
Edit: Could you go for a BorK and Divine Sunderer Kata game next maybe?
and give us your opinion about the differences
Katarina is not difficult but if you have a bad early and a focus on you with some champion who can cc you.... It start to be difficult to play. You got help from your support and jungler. It was a good game ! wp :)
dagger also procs on hit to all enemies hit so its just free dmg boost to all of ur abilities
The recall animation is beautiful
Nice video!
I HAVE BEEB WAITING FOR ANOTJER KAT VID. FOR 2 YEARS
Yayyy new video
i love pekin content
Where is today's stream?! 😢
U know you are early when the video is stuck at 360p
As a kat main, I have to say I don't think she's necessarily "hard" to play, she has her combos and doing them is more of a muscle memory thing, and also knowing how to optimaly use shunpo to outplay enemies. The thing that's hard for her is that her matchups are considerably hard, and you need to have some impact in the game since she is feast or famine after all. The way she excels is by exploiting enemies mistakes, but if they don't make mistakes, thats where it gets REALLY hard for her, because she NEEDS to be punish enemies when possible, but being melee and having high CDs early makes it risky for her
It makes sense for you to do well on her since you have a lot of good knowledge on how to trade and look for picks and ganks and not be too impatient, many kats die like crazy trying to fight all the time haha
I still dont understand how kat works.
Usually pekin explains how the abilities work, but he didnt this time.
What does the w do?
Gives movement speed and leaves a dagger behind
@@rinbenchantelle5501 ah, and if he steps on his dagger, his e-cooldown gets reduced a lot right?
@@Nadal- all her abilities get reduced i think except the ult im not sure about the ult
@@rinbenchantelle5501 The ult cooldown gets reduced on kills
Did Pekin play Skarner mid? No.
Lose Streak: 511
just gotta wait til level 9 to fight lol. That made me chuckle
Let's be honest the only reason kat has a positive winrate is cause veigar and asol have been in the meta for the past couple of patches.
Not because she can reset all her abilities after a single kill ?
@@mechanicalsilence1 She was sitting at like a 48-49% winrate consistently before the Asol rework and Veigar buffs.
@@mechanicalsilence1 samira ultimate has a 5 second cooldown and darius passive gives him 230 free ad. Every champ has their quirks no?
@@koreshura641 yup. And they keep making her worse. First the tank items, then even the mages started getting tanky with rod and seraphs. And now they give ability haste to her core item even though it's pointless on her....
thank you for not baiting me with pretty skins in a thumbnail
Day 189 of reminding Pekin before next April Fools to do both the “League streamer tucks you into bed ASMR” and the “Challenger player shows you how to cook frozen salmon”
Hey Pekin, I'm kinda low elo, and i usually struggle against Kata, any tips against her?
Katarina mains say just don't step on her daggers, hope this helps
Don’t step on daggers, and punish her early game as hard as possible. Ultimately since you’re low elo your team is the biggest handicap to beating kat
@@LovesEmbracce exactly, usually when i play mid i pick lane bullies and agressive champs to make her useless. But lately I've been playing Jg, and I've been getting this 0 preassure Asol's, and she just keeps on roaming. Don't know what to do in those cases
@@kennethponce1640 Follow or intercept. In those situations you’re entirely dependent on your side laners not being blind deaf apes with no hands. Almost every jungler does extremely well into kat unless she’s like 20/0 and like 3-4 levels up on everyone. It’s a snowball champ that is useless if she doesn’t get the opportunity to snowball
One of the easiest ways though is to try to get ur team to swap for you to be near last pick in champ select and counter pick with something nearly unbeatable like Kassadin or Vex due to their kits
9:33 seeing you walk away and minions get that free turr plating made me tear up
hey pekin could u make a talon video pls? it got buffed too so why not :D
More katarina vids!
Pekin stop, I literally picked up Katarina today
hehe i remember that one tilted katarina game you played. Such a hard champion
that video was priceless
@@julianoterra292 which vid?
@@galebullet czcams.com/video/040Magb5oSE/video.html
I feel like alternator is not a good rush on Kata, blasting wand does way more for you for cheaper 🙂
Pekin Woof Katarina moment
It's Pekin time
why no nashor rush pekinevolved
Kat herself isn't hard what's hard is judging what you should do and by the time you build your confidence up for a 5 man ult everyones cooldowns are off and they cc you to death. Just like assassins like Talon or Akali you have to have this fearless mindset and be able to make decisions instantly without faltering. Reason why KatEvolved is so good on Kat is not only for his godly gameplay but also not fearing and sometimes trusting his teammates to finish the job if he messes up. Kat herself is not to say broken but she can literally use almost every damage item in the game other than adc items (she used to be able to use Kraken lol). Anyways I have no idea what im talking about and I may be talking out my ass because I only play Kat like once every week lol.
so it seems katarina vs support isnt that hard after all
try against one of the 100 counters she has tho and tell us your opinion
sett in the video for example. you could never fight him no matter how fed you get
Katarina is definitely harder than most champs imo, don't think she is weak though just difficult laning phase but mid game she's really strong what I like about her is the 1+ second delay on her passive, personally I find it easy to play against kat she is slippery but easy to punish, if you see a kat use W in lane just run at her it has a 14+ second cd and she can't Q passive in melee range, I believe kat has plenty of counterplay.
Best mid lamer NA, I heard from a secret source faker only watches Pekin on CZcams.
KatEvolved puts 3 points into E before maximising Q so that E resets are almost immediate.
It does not change anything, CD refund is based on levels
@@shiro7282 this is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen lmao, 3 point E has instant reset because the base cooldown is so low that the cd refund puts it at less than a second. Tell me you have no idea what you’re talking abt without telling me
@@shiro7282 that's what putting 3 points into E means. You can only upgrade it as you level up.
@@thoughtfulhedonist what he means is that the cooldown of shunpo lowers percent based with the passive, and it's based on katarina's level (at 6, 11, 16), not the skill's level. Upgrading the skill lowers the cooldown too tho, but by a fixated time like a second or so
@@marquitomarquito10 yes, that's what I meant. By lvl 6, if you put one point in Q and W, 3 points in E and one point in R, then E's cooldown will be at 11 seconds. If she retrieved a dagger, the cooldown will be reduced by 9.3 seconds which is almost 10. So, effectively shunpo goes to only 1 sec cooldown if you retrieve a dagger. That's what I meant by having almost immediate shunpo resets.
"supposed to be difficult": Pekin playing everything super perfect (thought hes a zoe onetrick lol)
Here before HD quality
-Little bit of poke dmg *gets a double kill*
good video
Nice vid
easiest matchups as a kat: 1) melee 2) no instantclick hard cc 3) no insanely good waveclear (which 85% of midlane champions do have)
200k mastery points and i have never faced a pyke mid, but i can't imagine him to be a difficult enemy. try vex or fizz or literally any other champ
All hail the algorithm!
Once you know how the daggers work I think she is easy to play. She just has many/mostly bad matchups so you rely on ganks or other lanes not accounting for roams, but once you're ahead becomes a monster.
That and kat is one of those champs where you got make split second decisions on when to go in/ is it worth jumping in a middle of a teamfight and potentially die as a result, which is probably why people consider her as the more difficult champs to master.
Kat has a pretty high skill ceiling since she has such great mobility. Overall she’s not ‘easy’ but definitely not some galaxy brained champ to pick up at all
lets goo my main but yea shes easy to learn hard to master
Rip the plate 😢
so many ults that could've deleted them did no damage cus u don't have nashors. champ ratios nerfed and adjusted to be an on hit applier now maybe u don't feel it cus ur fed but ap only is lil weak
Aaaaaaah 360p will be back tomorrow
Sorry it's 1080p for me. I don't even know how youtube works where it's HD for only some people.
@@PekinWoof yeah idk how this works sometimes new videos will be 360p sometimes they are full hd from the get go
The argument isn't that the champion is "Hard", but that it takes the most amount of time to master, and this isn't some random claim that Katarina mains make. It comes from Riot statistics. Phreak even referenced this in one of his recent patch rundowns.
There's also a very big difference between a Challenger player picking up a champion and literally anyone else doing it. You seem to forget that you're quite literally in the top 0.03% of players.
It's still painfully obvious the difference between someone who plays the champion and someone who doesn't, even from level 1, despite how well you played generally.
GOODRAS HIPS❓❓❓
Kata would be difficult if she didn't scale with every item in the game and had super inflated dmg. When ure used to playing mages that make jokes instead of dmg she feels easy to win with
True
POV: you pick a broken champion and get free LP instead of playing a balanced champion
She is easy to play but difficult to master... Im playing her since 2 years in master/gm nearly as otp and i think im stull a 8/10 🤷🏻♂️
I think the hardest part of kata is to imagine the whole fight before its happening and place all daggers before resets... So you can have extra damage plus escapes while all your cd's are reset 🤷🏻♂️ but the weird thing is that even at master gm people keep walk on daggers... Just like they don't calculate you 🤣🤣
But but but you hate Katarina Pekin D:
Clicked on video thinking the thumbnail was Janna. Man skins are getting crazier these days.
PLAY MORE KAT!!
I've been begging Pekin to play Taliyah and he plays this godless champ instead. Smh. Lol.
wow
Katarina is difficult for me because I suck at the game so 🤷♀️
the only people who unironically think Katarina is difficult are Katarina one-trick, and that's because their mechanics don't translate to any other champ so they need to pretend theirs is hard because they're complete trash without her
play her yourself
It's funny how mad people get when you call out her as an easy champ to play.
@@billybobbobson3797 she’s not hard to play, but it’s not like she’s some strong abomination of a champ. If someone picks kat on me I can literally pick almost anything and auto win lane. A lot of control mages lose to her tho. But she’s useless if she gets behind. He played against a support main in this vid, and pyke isn’t good into her anyways. I like pekin but I think he has a lot of salt towards kat because he can’t deal with very skilled kat players that well.
I only play Katarina for her two big b...blades. Yeah, blades.
Naaaah bro really started replying to the hate comments 💀 this is pecans downfall arc
Anyone in the game can play Katarina. She was very unbalanced, just QEWR ignite that's It. Shunpon again and then use your skills without mana ._.
I thought Katarina was difficult and then I got her in ARAM and steamrolled with it. Nice video!
Aram bro
pyke easiest matchup for kata, u litteraly have 2 spells t o dodge his 2 spells
I love how for 7 years I've been hearing she is difficult to play, it is either the biggest denial or the best PR against nerfing her lol
the stats dont lie
I just feel like everyone who calls her op does not play her or have played her maybe she is not as difficult as people are saying but she definitely doesn't need nerfs imo
Kat and akali = my most banned mid lane champs. Too many dashes, low cooldowns, and insane damage for no reason. Ult does 100-0 and resets on kill. Seen kat players and akali players come back from 0/5 and 40-50 CS and then just take over the game.
Poor pyke mid if only it was playable
Nah bro is laning against Pyke mid, ofc he'd go ham
Its funny scrolling through the comments and seeing you only respond to the negative ones. Your anger clickbait titles work the same way on you with comment replys lol
Placing a comment here due to I liked the video
shiiii im so early the video still in 360p, unwatchable actually
do a video on riven mid
Day 3 until Pekin coaches me to be a decent player because he is a great person and a peak league player
Katarina mains get mad when they smash there face on a keyboard and not get a penta
