2/12 PBE Update

Now his Q is gonna give less gold, AND take more time to get 500 S.S

This really is overkill. Why not just go through with the previous idea of changing his barrels to BONUS ARMOR PEN.

The current nerfs are going to A: Lower his income, B: Lower his ult power, and C: Destroy his current build path.

Just remove the interaction between Q and Grasp, which is what makes him unfair in laning, and he'll be super fine. More risk to get good trades, his laning phase will be much harder and he'll stay as a lategame champion. No need to nerf everything before realizing the problem and then when they'll finally remove the interaction cause they ran out of ideas he'll suck.

Actually, make his Q count as a ranged autoattack. That way, Grasp will be divided by 2 (cf. tooltip) and Bandit will give 3 gold instead of 10. I think that'd be a really good idea. And revert the other nerfs.

His SS income, compared to his ult cost, shouldn't be any different, than it is now. So I don't see how it will affect his ult. (considering the damage against minions isn't changed, so he doesn't even affect his farm game.

As for his current build path, I'm guessing Riot has decided that he should Hyper carry, and is simply getting their too fast. Considering he builds Glass cannon so that he can do a ton of damage with his barrels, and chunk out any squishy.

His gold income is going to be lower, but his silver serpent farming will be the same as live in that PBE iteration

Chaning his e to bonus armor pen wouldn't do anything.

It may not be enough
