electrocute is the biggest cause of games snowballing now

theres no reason any champ should be able to 0-100 you at level 2

ANY CHAMP

idc if its an assassin, mage, tank, adc, whatever

electrocute needs to go. it's time for people to have to earn damage on enemies

Imo just remove keystones or bring back the old keystones

TheMysticWar7/26/2018, 9:40:18 AM7 votes

At this point they should replace it with thunderlords

Just revert Electrocute back to Thunderlord's Decree.

That should fix a lot of problems.

We've lost contact of what 100-0 means nowadays. It's thrown around like people understand it.

100-0's have pretty much ended. Nidalee javelins for 1500 that literally took an adc's health from 100% to 0% is a 100-0 A level 3 talon who does aa-qwe-aa ignite is not a 100-0.

Been masters multiple times this season and I can advocate for this. Electrocute makes a majority of the cast deal substantially more burst then ever before. I've played games as draven where i build hexdrinker, and still get 100-0 by a Diana with mixed damage items not even turned into a complete item. It's ludicrous and very unhealthy for the game. An assasin should be able to do their job no doubt, but when it comes so early and with very little risk aside from jungle pressure, it's time to maybe take a step back and look at what the core problem is. Electrocute and dashes providing a burst of lethality/magic pen is very wonky and suits assasins wayyyy too much. Back in season 6 (the prime of league imo) everyone had windows of opportunity, where they were either stronger or weaker. Zed had to use 2-3 rotations to pull off a succesfull kill at 6 and had to consider a wide variety of factors since he didn't have enough burst to insta bang someone. Now-a-days Zeds can rush serated dirk, come to lane post 6 and R-W-E-AA and one bang someone without much counterplay aside from stopwatch. I've experienced this way too much, both on the losing end and winning end. I feel Riot really needs to reconsider alot of the keystones they implemented and pointless damage buffs they've given over the patches that haven't tuned the game properly and instead has made it very snowball heavy. I believe making the game like it used too will not only provide healthier options for outplaying and game macro, but instill a good meta with every champion being viable, not the ones that can abuse the damage keystones the best.

Can you please name champions that actually 0-100 you at level 2? All I can think of is Talon

If you remove electrocute you might as well tell any assassin or melee champ in midlane to not bother even fighting Lux, Zoe, Anivia, or Karma as you'll have no way to close the deficit of a trade because those champs can poke you to kingdom come and your only way to deal with them is a mega burst all in with electrocute and ignite before binding/sleepy bubble peel you off and make you automatically lose any single trade.

And what would u suggest to replace for them with which rune?

For example Lee Sin?

WitchQueen Annie7/26/2018, 8:39:44 AM4 votes

No it doesn't. You just need to learn to play better.

Also, if it disappears its like it doesn't really disappear because everyone who relied on it will get massive massive compensation buffs

Crimsøn Reäper7/26/2018, 1:05:20 PM4 votes

Lol all these low elo players getting oneshot once cuz they suck and blame runes.

Giga Baboon7/27/2018, 3:45:55 AM4 votes

More and more high elo players are realizing that entire champions can be played around one level 3 - 4 electrocute proc for a kill and snowball. It's fucking retarded, but meddler isn't going to do anything. It took him 6 months to even acknowledge ardent was a problem, these people who can't admit when they're wrong even when they have nothing to lose don't deserve to lead shit.

I said to remove electrocrute in many threads and i got attacked with downvotes. Hopefully yours will be successful.

ALL keystones need to go. They're unnecessary and just create balance problems.

Hyquiem7/26/2018, 8:50:47 AM3 votes

Ehh why not balance the ratios to thunderlords and cool downs.. idc if it reminds u of thunder lords but pls. TLD was a great assasins mastery and the one called double edged sword, now those balanced masteries are gone and we are left with an endless trail of people who don’t take the time to play skill champions that can hurt anything. But instead they ponder on what’s OP and how Come OP can’t beat EVERYTHING.

The Space Cowboy7/26/2018, 8:09:29 PM2 votes

I always laugh when people say it’s okay to delete people if you’re an assassin. Assassins prey on the weak and vulnerable. They should require some chip damage before all in unless super fed.

Weren't people saying 3 months ago that domination sucked and Electrocute was useless compared to Arcane Comet and Aery?

remakoro7/26/2018, 3:22:27 PM2 votes

Yes it needs. Along with EVERY other keystone.

saltran7/26/2018, 2:17:51 PM2 votes

This would be a buff for adcs so I'm fine, go ahead.
