Patch 7.7 Balance

Ethereal Mist··2 votes·943 views

win rate data from op.gg This patch is actually absurd. Camille is getting nerfed while her overall win rate sits at 45% and only reaches 49% in masters. She's already completely unviable outside of the highest levels of play, she doesn't need a nerf at all, yet alone nearly cutting her ult duration in half. On the other hand, Amumu is getting buffs. He already has above a 50% win rate overall which only drops to 49% in masters, while I will give that he's not in the best state right now, there are MANY champions that could use a buff before him. Not to mention Ryze is still getting no attention, sitting at one of the lowest win rates of all time at an overall 37% which goes up to 45% at masters! Really Riot?!?!? I'm not trying to say that win rate means everything, but it does tell a lot about the overall strength of a champion and, in the case of Ryze, very clearly indicates something is wrong. Obviously Riot realizes this and they've tried to address it with the various reworks, but there is no reason to just gut him to being unplayable. I just don't understand some of the changes they make.

Cam does not need another nurf. I already crush her when she's top. Feels bad. Getting the Sol treatment. Another cool champ being nurfed to oblivion. I never see Sol played anymore and Cam is just a tasty treat when I see her top which is very rare now.

Yeah, sol had been azir'ed, sol is INSANELY hard to play properly in this meta...and when you do play him right, he doesn't do enough damage to fight all these juggarnauts/assassins, its already hard enough keeping them off you, and he only sees success in like master tier and above (due to generally good junglers putting pressure on ALL the lanes...not just bot) and sols problem at this time is hes never actually good in casual play due to having one of the highest skill floors in the game (legit, you can find a good zed/cassio in low elo, but a good sol doesnt exist) i used to be able to proficiently play the champion, but now he just loses lane to everyone simply because everyone will go ham as often as possible and the jungler on my team wont punish them for it (his roams are the only way to succeed with him but 7 times out of 10 you will get killed while ganking because of your low impact early game)

Camille is not necessarily nerfed for her solo queue performance, but her presence in pro play. In LCK, she is 100% P/B over the whole of Spring...

Honestly, you could even see this eventually happening when she was released. That ultimate and her engage range with E are simply too strong in pro play for anything else to happen.
