Since you obviously haven't been reading any of my points or Weekly's points. Let me reiterate them again.
1) Ashe's Country level AP comes form the fact that she's scaled to her ancestor, Avarosa, who fought Lissandra at her peak. The bow and magic Ashe uses are the very same used to defeat Lissandra., who is Anivia's rival. Anivia herself has enough power to start Ice Ages if she loses control of it (i.e. upon her death) and controls the very aspect of winter in Freljord. Lissandra and the Watchers also scale to people like Xerath due to author statements, with the latter sinking all of Shurima upon his Ascension.
2) Everyone and their mother can dodge magical lightning and laser beam attacks in addition to fighting alongside champions like Bard, who has achieved such speeds. Thus Ashe gets it too as one of the most prominent Champions of the League.
3) Lifting Strength is validated in the description. Besides, she's still holding and nocking the arrow.
4) Striking Strength includes impact force from any physical attack, including projectiles.
5) Avarosa and Serylda (Sejuani's ancestor) went head-to-head with Lissandra, who is able to fling blizzards around with the same intensity as Anivia. It's HIGHLY unlikely that they dodged every attack. As Avarosa's descendant and the inheritor of herpower, Ashe gets this too.
7) It was agreed some time ago that Champions would get the items they purchased most on their Standard Equipment list, but I can't remember where.
8) This I can agree with.
Thanks for pointing out a few things for me. I still see some flaws, though.
Ok, just reread Ashe's background, and now i gotta rewrite this.
1) I understand about the bow's power (not so sure about magic though), but the thing is, you're scaling Ashe to her ancestor. Basically, when Ashe grabs her ancestor's bow, latent power is awakened in Ashe. However, we have no way of making sure that Ashe is legit as powerful as her ancestor was. Note that the assassin arguement is rendered null & void: Ashe awakens her powers when she grabbed the bow. Also, Anniva's ability to start/stop the ice age doesn't really mean much in terms of durability, though I have no idea why it's relevant. Xerath is a special case of the ascended, as he 1) corrupted the process and 2) combined it with his own magical prowess, thus magnifying his power. If you wanna compare/contrast power levels, you're going to need to use it on the more normal examples, ie Nasus / Renekton. Azir is another special case as well.
2) This is gameplay. Please don't confuse canon (story, etc.) with the game (heavily distorted for gameplay reasons). By this logic, Teemo (
Satan himself a pipsqueak Yordle) can kill Aurelion Sol (A celestial dragon that casually creates stars). Also, with that level of speed, Ashe would easily be able to run through the entire Freljord in less than a day, and probably would be untouchable with that speed (speedblitzing, anyone?).
3) Not saying Lifting Strength is wrong; but the point still stands: The bow itself has power, and Ashe now has powers of her own; remember that she's creating these arrows out of thin air, what's to say that these arrows aren't being used with magic to enhance them / make them easier to use?
4) That helps clarify that. Unfortunately, it still doesn't explain how her arrows are able to easily devastate the entire Freljord, yet it's still in one piece. Remember, ZJ = Country level.
5) We're 100% sure that Ashe inherited the powers of her ancestors. We're NOT 100% sure that Ashe is just as powerful as her ancestor, however. Thus, while Ashe's not at human level durability, we can't safely put her at the level of her ancestor, and she has no durability feats of her own. Also, where does it say that Lissandra can throw around blizzards as powerful as Anniva's? Never saw that before.
6 (not 7, you missed this number) ) GAMEPLAY MECHANICS X1000. THE CLOSEST YOU'LL EVER GET TO THIS IS GETTING ITEMS ORIGINATING FROM THEIR HOME COUNTRY, AND EVEN THEN, ONLY ITEMS IN LINE WITH WHAT THEY DO (Braum with Frozen Heart?) There are so many arguements against starting items, I don't know why you try. Also, the standard items thing 1) no longer exists for starting items (I think doran's items have been removed) 2) are dynamic, which is something we can't have here, and 3) were posted in some other thread for lol debating I think.
7 (see 6) ) lol, idk y this is even on the wikia
