I dunno about these changes. Aatrox looks a little too strong there. Everything else seems okay though

When your favorite champion isn't even relevant enough to riot to be considered for a joke. Feels balance team man.

Chembaron Yamada4/1/2019, 2:05:46 AM14 votes

Rammus becomes 10% more ok, nice buff.

Hey Mort !!

Is it possible to adjust Corki's package timer on ARAM ? getting to use it 2 or 3 times only feels pretty bad.

LoH Exterminator4/2/2019, 4:31:45 PM1 votes

I personally think, they just nerfed annie with the +10% damage done for each skin owned. It should be more like this: Annie Ultimate: Tibbers 30 seconds on the map as long as Annie is alive. When Annie is dead, Tibber enters Rage mode - Rage mode: Tibbers is active on the field until annies revival. As Tibber is in Rage mode seeing Annie's death with its own eyes, tibbers stats gain, plus 100 armour and MR, with 1000 bonus health. Enemy champion within 125 range take 25 + ( Tibbers current level x 10) damage per second. MS is heavily increased, targeting all enemy champion who were the cause of Annie's death. Damage is heavily increased, targeting champions who were not part of Annies death, in result of hunger and rage of Tibbers! Annie

I figured it was just the usual inept Riot balance team.
