Sejuani doesn't need a nerf! Quit the trigger-happy nerfing!

Look at all of these threads on the Hot page :O

Sejuani's win rate is only high because she didn't see much competitive play until now, people are still adapting to tank junglers ACTUALLY having being effective. Once people adapt to tank junglers, her win rate will steady out.

So many "Don't nerf Sejuani" posts everywhere. Frankly, I'm inclined to agree! This is just another example of Riot nerfing the wrong aspect again. Remember when Warwick became god-mode with the old item 3718? They gutted WARWICK because they item was good on him. Now he's considered sub-par. ** THIS IS THE SAME THING HAPPENING**. They're nerfing a champion who actually can useitem 3725 well rather than nerfing the item!

Sejuani's in a great place right now. She was in a good place before as well, but now that there's a jungle item that actually synergizes with her playstyle all of the sudden she's being bludgeoned with the nerf bat on PBE. And if it's on PBE, we all know what that means! It's gonna happen whether people like it or not! (note that the only time this has been dis-proven was when Katarina had nerfs on the PBE and all the Kat mains went fcking ballistic about it*)

Here's the issue I have though. Sejuani is quite literally just a blue Amumu. Both of them possess:

  • Gap closer Q (Amumu's is better imo)
  • % max HP AOE DOT
  • flat damage E (sej has a slow attached, but big whoop)
  • Game-changer ultimate

So why isn't Amumu being nerfed too? Riot seems to be exhibiting DOUBLE STANDARDS... ... ... ... again. The 2 champions are almost virtually identical in terms of kit and function, both being AP based disruptor tanks. Both synergize very well with Cinderhulk. Mind you, cinderhulk doesn't even do that much damage in the mid to late game!

Riot is getting trigger-happy with these nerfs. We need to put a stop to it.

I feel like the nerfs might be slightly preemptive. considering that Hunter's machete is also buffed in the PBE.

Largely, I feel like the Nerfs arn't actually that bad. The main Nerf is to her Ult, which is was pretty reliable on a near miss.

Honestly I'm frightened by this post, something has gone wrong if a champion starts doing well and all you can hear is, "Pls don't nerf!" Plus (Not sure about this part) but I haven't heard about a nerf to sej yet, correct me if I'm wrong but why are people implying that she is getting nerfed?

I think we'll be okay.

I don't like to see her nerfed, but I also don't want her getting overcrowded in being picked.

I'm a main for a reason.

I don't need everyone playing my champion to the point where I can't use her. So I'm currently okay with this nerf that has been projected on PBE.
