item 3512 being one that come to the front of this skookum choochers mind.

The item is FINALLY getting some use and what does El reto do?

"better get to nerfing it. Doesn't fit our picture of where we want the game to go." - Riot Games probably.

Next will be tank akali.

I do not like it sam i am. I do not like green eggs and nerfing neat-o stuff.

Something being unique doesn't mean it should be impervious to nerfs.

They aren't nerfing Zz'rot because it's unique and getting use, it's making it where there is currently one strategy in most games, split. It's taking away diversity.

So just because something is unique riot shouldn't nerf it? Maybe they should bring back the old masteries from preseason then since they were unique and obviously didn't deserve any of the nerfs or changes they got.

I don't think any objective onlooker could look at the combination of tanky stats and lane pressure/objective control that the item gave you and not conclude that it doesn't need a nerf.

Zz'rot will still do its thing that automatically pushes the lane, it will still have its unique niche.

Hopefully what will change is that it won't be the only niche in the game that matters. Games with Zz'rot or multiple Zz'rots meant that full minutes of player time were spent simply autoing portals in a bush, it's incredibly boring and uninteractive without much that can be done to reduce that annoyance.
