League of Legends champions have different skills. Some of the champions in the league have AoEs, while some champions don’t. Also, some champions are irritating because of their skills. One of the champions in league that most league of legends players are irritated with is Seraphine. But, why do league players hate Seraphine? Let us find out!
Why do league players hate Seraphine? The reason why league players hate Seraphine is because of the skills Seraphine has. The first, third, and ultimate skills of Seraphine are the reason why league players hate Seraphine. Those three skills of Seraphine can attack two or more champions and if Seraphine has locked items, those three skills hurt a lot.
Today, League of Legends players, we will talk about Seraphine and will clarify the main reason why league players hate Seraphine so much! Even me! I hate Seraphine, especially if I am in the bottom lane. I cannot creep score much because every time I try to kill creeps, the enemy Seraphine will use a third or second skill to reduce my health.
I gave you a concise answer about the reason why league players hate Seraphine. However, there is a broader explanation why league players like me hate Seraphine so much. Also, I will tell you the skills and how you can counter Seraphine based on my personal experience. So, if you are ready to defeat Seraphine, let us move on!
Why Do League Players Hate Seraphine?
The skills Seraphine has can hurt other champions a lot, especially those bottom lane champions like Jhin and Caitlyn, which are soft and have less armor. If Seraphine has locked items during the late game, Seraphine can make the health of a champion half with a combo of her first and third skill.
This is the main reason why league players hate Seraphine so much. The skills of Seraphine are not fair. However, if you manage to counter Seraphine during the early game, then you will have no problem with Seraphine.
Another reason why league players hate Seraphine is that league players say that Seraphine’s lore is not that good, her design looks out of place, and her animations are kinda wack. Also, some league players say that Seraphine’s kit is similar to Sona’s.
So it means that it’s not just because of the skill of Seraphine which makes league players hate her. League players hate Seraphine because Riot made her like that. League players think that Seraphine was made by Riot just for money or just to add up another champion. They think that Riot didn’t think carefully when creating Seraphine.
But in my personal opinion as a league player, I don’t hate Seraphine and I think Riot made a good choice of creating Seraphine because Seraphine adds another challenge for league players. Stop the hate and let us just appreciate Seraphine, even though her skills are somehow irritating.
What Are The Skills Of Seraphine?

How Can You Counter Seraphine?
Like I have said above, I will tell you how you can counter Seraphine. Below are the three simple ways to counter Seraphine.
Focus On Grevious Wounds
Seraphine can offer to heal her team. It is essential that you build an item that will reduce her ability to keep her allies alive.
Whether Seraphine plays support or mid, it’s essential to keep an eye on her itemization and be prepared to buy an item that inflicts grievous wounds.
If you have an item that inflicts grievous wounds it will reduce the enemy’s sustain and make them easier to kill in team fights.
If you play support and the support of the enemy is Seraphine, you can use Brand or Zyra and buy Morellonomicon.
Ignite Her
Just like grievous wounds, you must use ignite. If you are going to a team fight, make sure to ignite Seraphine as soon as possible to reduce her sustain.
Ignite applies grievous wounds like Executioner’s Calling and it reduces the healing effects which make killing Seraphine easier. So, if you have a Seraphine enemy, make sure to switch to ignite.
Learn To Sidestep
The skill of Seraphine hurts a lot, especially if she has locked items or has more creep scores than you. The first, third, and ultimate of Seraphine can be avoided easily.
Yes! You can avoid the skills of Seraphine if you know how to sidestep. You must predict where Seraphine will throw her skills and then you go on the other side to avoid her skills. Sidestepping must be learned by every league player to avoid the skills of Seraphine.
Should You Use Seraphine?
If you are going for support, I suggest you use Seraphine. Using Seraphine as support will help your ADR to creep score better. Why? Because you can just use your skill to the enemy and it will scare away the enemy and the enemy ADR will not creep score better. Just make sure that you are bullseye when hitting the enemy with your skill.
Also, Seraphine is a good champion during team fights. Her ultimate skill will make it easy for your teammates to kill the enemies. You just have to practice using her ultimate skill to hit the enemies.
Final Words
So, the main reason why league players hate Seraphine is that Seraphine has irritating skills. League players think that Seraphine was made like Sona and was not made properly by Riot. However, in my personal opinion, I think Seraphine is a good champion, and there is no problem with her. If you hate her skills, just ban her in rank.
