How to make wind drake worth contesting.

Reduce the movement speed to 10/20/30 give it ~~8/16/24%~~ 5/10/15 tenacity.

Reducing the effective duration of the enemy CC is actually a really nice and effective power. (I would know especially after that time when Elixir of Iron was being to be subtracted instead of multiplicative. Was fun getting around 90% tenacity but way too good.)

Unless the enemy team only has knockups, knockbacks, suppression, Rammus or Fiddle this will make the win drake worth contesting especially sicne the concept of ~~48%~~ 30% tenacity is nothing to turn a blind eye too.

This would make it a dragon buff worth contesting.

too broken. think smaller, maybe 5-10-16%

That much tenacity is OP, it'd allow players to go up to 69% which is high enough to change how champions interact with eachother.

Just using fire drake as the guidelines.

Clearly people can not even entertain the idea to some level and try to improve on it.

So get 24%+50% buff =36%, with the right masteries and merc treads= 81% it almost completely negates certain champion abilities while having no impact at all against other champions, no amount of damage boost does that.

The difference between tenacity and damage is that damage treats all champions equally, tenacity does not. Tenacity is not a stat that should ever be thrown around lightly.

Congrats on catching me clarifying and refining my post, that negates everything I said! With these kind of arguments how could anyone ever disagree with your ideas?

And should one dragon feel far more impactful then others?

It also is not like fire drake is more effective fore a Leblanc then a janna is it?

If anything tenacity is more more neutral then damage in that the janna will get the same effect as the leblanc. But will favor tanky champs the most. So if you wish to declare it biased you can but only if you call fire biased in favor of damage dealers and ocean biased in favor of high health and mana pool champs.

This is a great idea tenacity is valued too lowly for its usefulness and I hate it when in games the only drakes we can get are cloud and there over here with 3 infernals and it makes us do damage similar to a single minion
