Riot: Why was Teemo's mana reduced??

Wild Geese··5 votes·3,169 views

I understand he can start Doran's Ring but the "compensation" mana change doesn't seem to fit. (and may have been added in error?).

Teemo is not a mage, is not played mid, he does not waveclear efficiently, Teemo doesn't even build mana items!! Why should Teemo have the second lowest Mana pool in the game for no big reason? Hey I know he isn't super mana dependent either, it just seems like including him misses the mark and hurts his already weak late game unnecessarily, and adding mana to his early game he doesn't need before level 6...

It was even said in the patch notes -- "These champions, while also affected by the Doran's Ring, don't tend to build any of the mana items we're touching this patch. So, we're only adjusting their mana regen, but leaving their base mana and mana growth untouched.", --- and Teemo was listed under those. Is there some kind of mistake??

? I don't understand the problem.

Teemos mana wasn't reduced at all. All they did this patch was increasing his mana regen.

Except it was! He starts with 334 mana now when he used to have 267! he also gains about 20 mana per level instead of 40! Check in the practice tool in client!

edit: I included a screenshot.

I don't play Teemo and so I just trusted the patch notes, but it seems you are right and they changed his mana pool, even if the notes state that they didn't.

Most likely a bug, I guess. Hope Riot will fix this soon.

It seems Kayle, Galio, and Diana were also effected, despite the patch notes saying they aren't. Only Morgana stayed as is. What??

They were. Check below the list of mages on the official patch notes.

There's nothing saying their mana is changed, only something saying their mana regen is changed and not their base mana and mana growth.
