Future Patch Notes 4.18 - Offseason
New Mode : vs Bots ARAM
Champion Changes
Cassiopeia
W - reduce the CD and reduce the duration by 2. dmg has to be lowered
(like her desperado skin as a gunslinger, she should be slinging spells. also it helps her being more safe by relocating her slow)
Gangplank
(GP is strong, has a ultimate with a 6s slow, but besides his ult he lacks strong team presence in the late game)
Passive - scale the slow 8,12,16%. to compensate, reduce the duration to 1s but can stack 3 times to 3s
E - each time he apply his passive on enemy champions, he reduces the CD by 1s
R - at ranks 2 and 3, add increasing slow from 25% to 35%,45% over time
(reason for this, although there is a RNG factor, what we can do is minimize RNG in unique ways)
Graves
(There is no easy way to prime his passive before a team fight except to get in range to Q or W the enemy, or minions and monsters. The passive last 3s since last attack, and the best way to prime it is his W because of its duration, which has a long CD)
Passive duration should scale 3s,4s, 5sec. 3s for laning phase, 5s for baron dance and sieges
W cd should be lower by 2-4s at least; mana cost lower to a flat number
W slow decay over 1s after leaving the smokescreen (this buff is better than increasing the slow %)
Sion (please riot, do this change before releasing the rework :D)
Passive's % chance increase 50%,60% at lvl 8,13?? The damage blocked can be lowered and flat.
R - increase aoe heal radius to +475; reduce allies heal by half
Taric
Q - reduce mana cost 60-100. Reduce CD on Q by 4s or make it flat 12s.
R - remove self dmg buffs. allies aura stays.
(The self dmg buffs is not useful for the next 10 sec; sure he can use the AD to autoattack but the AP would only help his Q and E during the 10 sec for ONE USE due to CD restriction.)
Option 1 - Instead each auto attacks he does gives him movespeed to stick to his opponent (like phage) for peel and each auto attacks give his allies a shield of 25/50/75hp(but he doesn't get the shield?; because i dont want to see atk speed taric soloing someone).
Option 1.5 [recommended]- he gains extra movement toward allies to protect and peel (instead of the phage trait), and the shield goes to the closes ally or lowest hp allied
Option 2 - Gemcraft passive is not restricted during the R duration + Option1.5
Option 3 [boring/not recommended]- give a aoe shield like aegis (that scales with his total armor/mr?)
, all of which are strong buys on Cass. )Unfortunately this leaves two open slots after boots, generally going to penetration and/or deathcap, no real room for armor/mres. She's also one of the few mages with mana that feels good with spell vamp to me, but she doesn't really have room for it right now.
