Okay Riot, you made your Invoker equivalent. What's next, Bloodseeker's Rupture?

Aphelios is basically LoL's version of DotA's Invoker, which is really something I don't think this game needed. There is such a thing as "too complex".

That said, given that Riot's basically now said "Burden of Knowledge is no longer a thing", I expect them to start adding cheapass lose-lose ultimates like Bloodseeker's Rupture into the mix. I wouldn't put it past them...

Why not Invoker? At least the theme is unique.

I still fail to see why people compare Aphelios and Invoker, I mean, they are somewhat complex, but at the end of the day, Aphelios is ranged Udyr with more RNG, and Invoker is Ryze after 16 additional reworks

Idk but Aphelios is way more complicated than Invoker imo
