Welcome to Nerflandia

Here at Nerflandia we pride our selves on how useless our residents are. Whether you go to our deserts to visit Rammus and Azir or into the Dark Forest to see Mordekaiser try to[Revive icon used to be here but they removed that] {{summoner:10}} Karthus. But be careful for the local Skarner scorpion... thingys? We don't know we nerfed him os hard his lore is even gone! On Tuesdays our president Olaf and his secret service Yorick Urgot Galio. You can also visit the dark wizard's tower Veigar to see him display his once awesome magic. Be careful if you tread into our jungle lit only by the light of item 3154, there you can see creatures like Khazix Elise and Evelynn who some believe to have once stood by the holy lord and savior LeeSin, the mystical guarding who prevents any of us from escaping Nerflandia into the Dark Depths. Speaking of which, it seems the lord and savior has recently brought us more citizens from the Holy Morello. One of these peopleKassadin appear to have had his legs broken, but don't worry, there's no mobilty allowed here in Nerlandia, just ask Hecarim Volibear Nautilus Udyr and Shyvana, they all used to roam our mighty jungle harnessing the power of item 3706, a mystic relic that some say used to slow enemies, and even steal their movespeed and apply it to your own, but nobody is sure, as the Holy Morello has told us all to stay away, and that the item will soon be removed like our beloved item 3106. While you're here feel free to visit our museum of ancient relics including item 3124 item 3508 item 3711 item 3050 item 3056 item 3022 and even the modern relic item 3512.

Legend has it though that there is one way to escape Nerflandia. Tales of an ancient hero Jax who harvested the power of the item 3078 and broke free from Nerflandia's deepest corners. Some say the legendary hero was just a myth. Others say he was banished into the Void and removed from the Legendary League of Remarkable People, but this mighty hero is fabled to one day return. And on that day, the mighty hero Jax with lead the army of Nerflandia, and guide us on the Great March to overpower the holy guardian LeeSin and press forward. And according to legend, the armies of Nerflandia will then fight onward, through the dreaded jungle of Nidalee, past Zed's Shadow Temple, march through the Shadow Isles, stalked by Kalista, then trek the mighty Freljord, and slay the Ice Witch Lissandra. According to legends, then, and only then, will the citizens of Nerflandia once again be free to roam Runeterra.

This felt exactly like League's old lore in a very good way. Whimsical, a little silly really, but yet totally touching. Great job!

Still?

This is way better than anything the Lore team could even dream to create (I am still salty about Trundle's lore rework).

I want to continue.

As our warriors marched onward, looking for a means of escape, Kassadin finally couldn't stand it no longer.

Kassadin MY LEGS!!

The group had no choice but to split up. While King Olaf, Urgot, Yorick, and Galio marched forward with most of the others, Mordekaiser and Veigar began to feel weak. They decided to go back with Kassadin.

Marching onward, they eventually came across Gargas, drunken to near death in the woods.

Gragas Do not go further, she lurks in these woods. Only my stench keeps her away.

KogMaw Who?

Kog'Maw, unknowingly, gets hit by a flaming spear.

KogMaw AHH!

Kog'Maw then flees into the forest where he then explodes.

I could literally have written better lore for every single champ in the game on my own than their entire lore team has for a few champs. I have never been more pissed about a change to the game than the lore change. it would have been one thing if they were REPLACING the league with some other central tie, but no. they decided it would be more fun to make it a hodgepodge of random guys (of whom you know exactly 1 life event about, no backstory really) who are all assembled in this random, battle intensive arena for no reason and come back to life constantly for no reason at all. it went from a cool feeling of being part of a conflict to being just another game with a short story tied to each champ that nobody reads.

imo, if they don't want the league they should make it so players can choose to be part of a faction. they can either A) choose a nation (noxus, demacia, etc.), B) they can take a quiz or get their gameplay/best champs analyzed and be recommended a nation or C) choose no nation at all and be part of a "rogue" group. they could even have a new game mode come out of that where you play with other members of your nation as a champion from your nation, and players can check online for which nation is dominating the others.

I'm finding Sona manageable now that riot has finally made up their mind on her stats, but I don't play ranked so maybe she isn't viable there shrugs

Kynami4 votes

The main problem with Sona is that she either burns flash or dies if she is even a fraction out of position and gets engaged upon. She has no dependable defenses outside the ult, and if she burns ult to save herself... the other team is going to look to capitalize upon that within the next minute. If she dies, well its now a 4v5. Also burning flash to save herself means no flash-ult initiations from her for a notable length of time.

This means certain junglers absolutely ruin Sona's viability, because she absolutely cannot save the ADC from them if they get caught before 6th. And one or two kills can be all it takes to snowball a lane.

Honestly it enormously easier to just play Nami or Morg and do well against a larger number of team comps.

Sona wasn't even nerfed that hard. She's STILL my main, and I STILL whoop ass with her. Granted, it's not as hard to make plays with her in Bronze as it probably is Gold. You just have to get used to the feel of the champion and you can do pretty good.

Pika3107 votes

Sona wasn't even nerfed that hard.

A sum total of 23 nerfs in patch 4.13 alone, over 32 nerfs in under 7 months. I honestly don't know if any other champion has ever been nerfed as much as Sona has and probably none so much in such a short time-span or a single patch.

By the way to anyone wondering why Jax is a legendary hero of a place of crappy champs it's because he was literally removed from the game and felt fitting to be the Harbinger of the new beginning for these champs.

He was removed shortly after his release because he was too OP, then when he was balanced again they returned him with the quote "Surprise, I'm back!"

OP, please write tales of Nerflandia. I swear, I will read them all.

If this post gets at least 25 upvotes, OP will you continue with your tales of Nerflandia?

That story was actually beautiful. As I was reading I found myself dismayed by the plight of nerflandia's residents. Cheering on the hero, the savior and boo'ing the evil guardian. You should start a fan-fic.
