I think Predator is on the shit list, it’s just too good when it works just like Chemtank/Righteous Glory before it. You get one unfair free gank every time the cooldown is ready.

I don’t think it matters since people already only bought this on long range mages like Lux, Xerath, Zoe, and Vel’Koz.

Veigar’s cage used to spawn instantly and we accepted that as normal

The buffs and debuffs would be misleading because the champions with the heaviest nerfs are usually the strongest champions in the mode.

Case in point Ziggs is still easy mode because it’s so hard to push or engage against him, but here you are sweating over 42% winrate Qiyana.

Vayne is really the only ADC that has ever given me trouble 1v1 as Yi, without being fed.

It’s not that there was no good feedback given, it’s just that it was mixed with insults/flaming and just plain incorrect stuff like the “E fizzles when you die” thing.

He also mentioned in multiple places that there wasn’t bandwidth for larger changes (any changes to spell functions require more rescripting, playtesting, QA testing, etc. than simple number changes do) in 13.23 because all hands were getting ready to put preseason into beta.

Yeah I got the same impression.

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.

Yuumi had one of the lowest win rate on release too lmao are you arguing yuumi is a skillful champion?

Yes actually, we saw irrefutable proof of that. At least before her rework, there was an unusually strong correlation between a Yuumi player’s winrate, and how many games the player practiced her. Her dominance in pro play while she had 45% winrate in soloqueue was further proof of that. You’d see pro players win trades, tank 99% of their own health bar, and reattach safely without ever allowing CC to touch them.

Any redditor still debating this needs to log off.

On some level every AD champion is going to stack check because they have to right click on you. Doesn’t mean they’re skill-less champions, Briar’s winrate growth after her release is enough to prove that.

The actual problem is that their skins and spell VFX are all designed to contrast against a dull green/brown background. You notice this when you play Howling Abyss and some of the spells are harder to see.

Thanks for reminding me, I forgot that I’m not supposed to have fun in ranked.

A lot of people here don’t know that Invoker got a rework and doesn’t have 27 spells anymore. It’s the same number as Hwei now but each spell still requires 3 button presses.

Dude really said “immobile mages are unplayable” in an Orianna and Syndra meta
