MF changes are very worrying, and here's why.

Now, when you (Riot) are at nerfing the trinity of lethality ad carries, please make sure you do it right. Noone is gonna argue that they don't need nerfs, because they do. What has been scheduled for Varus and Jhin I believe is good, but MF changes are completely outrageous. You have first (!) removed a very important part of her kit. There are plenty of threads in hot explaining how bad it is, no need for me to repeat it over and over. Now DFT nerfs are up, and we know that MF is a big user of the so said keystone. Maybe it's a good change, I can't really tell right now. But what I do know right now, is that you are forgetting one, very simple aspect of how the lethality ADC's can, and can't function. While Jhin and Varus both can work really well with their crit buildpaths, MF simply doesen't, and what we are seeing right now, is that she is getting hit the most among these three. She has the third pick rate among them in soloq, and doesen't cover their playrate in competitve in any meaningful way. Please, take my points into consideration before she is gutted, and I feel like that scenario is not out of being possible, given how big and completely unecessary Q change is.

Let's not forget that on top of Yomuu's and Edge of Night getting nerfed to hell, that they also brutalized Black Cleaver too. Miss Fortune is taking it from both ends, and Riot doesn't seem to realize that this will leave her in the gutter.

TLDR: Other lethality abusers have a viable crit alternative that MF does not share. I agree

Jhin barely even got touched and they haven't nerfed Varus yet

you have a 60% win rate over 120 games as MF. you've had your time to abuse her itemization and the nerfs to her are compensated by her ability to utilize lethality more efficient than most assassins.

They are punishing a big part of her kit that rewards her for building crit

I mean, she was fine as-is pre-season 5/6/7. Normal ADC champ. Then the assassins and tanks steamrolled her... then they buffed Lethality et al which made her ridiculously strong plus the Masteries. Now she's back to being normal again. I

I really don't see how a single aspect primarily used for Laning Phase is an "Important part of her kit". I've also never seen any MF's take DFT when TLD exists, but that may just be my experience. If you look at Varus's changes, it's obvious that they're trying to make both more interactive in Laning phase, hence lowering how much poke MF does.

Man, please space out your post better. No one wants to read a giant block of text.
