Damage Creep OP.

Towers? I don't know what those are. Ended a game on one of my smurf account pre 15.

Some champions literally can't perform under these new runes. While others are just obscene. Still haven't even figured out what I want to run on Ryze yet. He abuses Aery pretty well, but so do 100 other champions because the rune is OP. While DoT champions lost a pretty good rune like DFT. Ryze and Vlad lost the slow resist on Stormraiders.

Stormraiders: Dealing 30% of a champion's maximum health within 2.5 seconds grants you 40% bonus movement speed and 75% Slow Resist for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 10 seconds

Phase Rush: Basic attacks and abilities generate stacks on enemy champions hit (up to one per action). Applying 3 stacks to a target within a 3 second period grants you 15% - 40% (based on level) movement speed for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 15

Cool its easier to proc now! Except, its just worse. It has to scale up to 40% movespeed bonus at level 18 vs having it at level 1. It doesn't even have its Slow Resistance! Arguably because other champions with longer ranges than Ryze and Vlad can now use it as well.

Meanwhile...

Thunderlords Decree: Hitting an enemy champion with an ability (ability damage) or basic attack (on-hit) marks them with Thunderlord's Decree for 3 seconds. At 3 stacks, the target is dealt 10 - 180 (based on level) + (30% bonus AD) + (10% AP) magic damage in an area around them. Thunderlord's Decree can only be triggered once every 25 - 15 (based on level) seconds.

Electrocute: Basic attacks and damaging abilities generate stacks on enemy champions hit, up to one per attack or cast. Applying 3 stacks to a target within a 3 second period causes them to be struck by lightning, dealing them 50 - 220 (based on level) (+ 50% bonus AD) (+ 30% AP) Ability powerAttack damage Adaptive damage. Cooldown : 50 - 25 (based on level)

Electrocute is just better than TLD. 50 damage + a .5AD ratio + a .3 AP ratio vs a 10 damage + a .3 AD ratio + a .1AP ratio. Yeah you can proc it two times in the early levels to his every one time. But you don't have the same damage that he does just from base number. Okay how about late game? Lets assume 300 AD/AP.

Saying that you get two procs of TLD vs one of Electrocute. 360+90+30 = 480 vs 220 + 50 + 30= 300. But realistically speaking though. How often are you going to get more than 1 proc of TLD decree in a teamfight?

This is me REEing about how shitty everything is in pre-season and hopefully will have at least one or two of these issues address sometime by a red comment somewhere eventually.

Turrets don't exist. Towers made of Rice paper do.

Damage is insane right now.

Games are just too snowbally.

Question, what are those weird crystals near the tower? I'm a bit confused as to what they do.

That is the demolition rune, after some time of seconds. The next auto from the person with that minor rune will deal x damage + x% of max hp to tower.
