Thanks for listening to our cries, now we just need more pings and we are good. Appreciate you !! Hope your doing well.
Hope you’re doing well, mate.
Appreciate the post as always.
its absolutely insane that one of the hardest champions in the game (Riven) was seen as weak, despite having above average playrate, and around 50% winrate.
that champion is not easy. the vast majority of Riven players can’t do basic animation canceling or even know what that is, and even within the minority of Riven players. the vast majority cannot optimally animation cancel.
good to see you still posting on reddit
Tried KSante and Azir. They feel awful specially KSante, I think Riot wants to kill his playrate then buff him after?
These nerfs made it seem like he was OP in pro play and had to be gutted lol
Regarding Azir, it’s said that they gave him very big compensation nerfs, they rather Azir be in the gutter than maybe let him 48% WR for a single patch lol (again no pro play, don’t understand why he had to be nerfed hard)
As a rule, the more changes you make in a patch, the harder it is to predict the winrate/pickrate/banrate you’ll land at. Riot probably overshot their target for K’Sante, but didn’t want to risk undershooting and having him overwhelmingly strong during a longer patch.
Gee… who would have thought giving janna a more healthy/risky playstyle wasn’t gonna take some getting used to… and who would have thought a 51.4% WR champ was in a weak state after a small rework and needed buffs instead of nerfs and playstyle adjusting
I swear some1 at riot mains that abomination of a champ…
