Rylais was nerfed because it offered too much durability/utility for how much damage it provided

Talon's new fashion line has caused too much hysteria in the fashion world.

Knife capes

For when you do forget to bring cutlery to your fancy assassin dinner.

A must have for those fancy Noxian dinner parties.

Please. This has been an ancient Ionian style for ages. Master Yi rocks the sword-boots, and you Noxians just come in and claim this idea as yours.

Sion Pet swords might run away. You need to keep them somewhere safe. You should implant it in your skull, like me.

Shen Pulls it out

Shen Wait a second... this is a golf club.

Sion I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THAT CLUB SINCE BEFORE I WAS DEAD! GIVE IT HERE!

Glory ln DeathFeb 21, 20173 votes

Golfer Sion skin confirmed?

Q: Yells "Fore!" while smashing you with a giant driver. The club head gets larger the longer he charges up.
W: Golf ball shield.
E: I don't know, sand? Like he's hitting the ball out of a sand trap?
R: Charges at you in a golf cart.

IT'S PERFECT!!!

It can be a new skin line that starts with him and Jhin!

He putts a minion with his club.

What if he isn't shooting a minion, though?

MelledoneusFeb 21, 20171 votes

Then he's whacking someone in the knee with a golf club.

That's gotta reduce armor.

Only issue I have left is the lack of clarity, since it would be so different from the original.

MelledoneusFeb 21, 20171 votes

Have him pull back, and thrust the club forward like a fencer would a rapier.

Boom, looks like his original E.

you forgot item 3033 . If you are fighting vlad, you will want this

AhristocatsFeb 20, 201711 votes

You don't

200 mr and a billion of damage is enough to beat him as riven

skyskee008Feb 21, 20171 votes

Vlads one of the hardest scaling champs in the game. If you were even with her at 6 items you will out duel her. However because she has a stupid amount of cc our team fighting her becomes tricky.

AhristocatsFeb 21, 20171 votes

he is

if you don't have 200 mr had item 3020 item 3157 item 3135 item 3151 item 3152 item 3065 and couldn't do anything

Faceroll TacticsFeb 21, 20171 votes

His healing isn't affected by the enemies resistances. He will outduel anyone without GW in a hypothetical "no running" scenario.

AhristocatsFeb 21, 20173 votes

you think you're going to heal riven's damage? you have hope that's cute and you will heal one less Q because of edge of the night shield, which destroys vlad because it prevents him to immediatly press R and have R healing faster, by the time you're forced to cast Q for nothing and lose time due to the animation riven removes 25% of your hp with a Q+AA animation cancelling

Faceroll TacticsFeb 21, 20171 votes

What? Vlad's qs late game are on such a low cooldown wasting one doesn't matter as much as you think. Vlad is one of the best scaling champions in the game, he double dips in every item he buys, riven is strong early but falls off late unless ahead. If we are assuming both are 6 slotted with elixirs, level 18, and appropriate runes and masteries riven would not win.

Vlad has range advantage, don't just say riven will get to q auto you by the time a .30 and .25 cast point goes off.

skyskee008Feb 25, 20171 votes

Replace sorc shoes with tabis and you'll notice an instant difference. Don't expect to be able to duel against a riven when you have just zhonyas as armour

It's almost like there was a Red post few days ago where they talked about nerfing Edge of Night.

Mira Arya EntheFeb 21, 20178 votes

I put up a vote to disable it until they can patch and fix/remove it. Got plenty of upvotes. Rito won't listen.

BârdFeb 21, 20173 votes

Riot doesn't disable for balance.

The item is overpowered, but not bugged.

They do hotfix on occasion, but that is only for things that are broken enough that regular gameplay cannot go on so long as the problem persists (ie 5.16 Skarner running around with a 77% winrate)

TheMinezFeb 21, 20171 votes

I don't have the statistics, but wasn't Leblanc hotfixed later the day she was released?

BârdFeb 21, 20171 votes

Hotfixed, not disabled.

Riot only hotfixes on very rare occasions, when something is making the game unplayable due to its strength.

Eon is strong, too strong, but nowhere near release LB or juggernaut patch Skarner.

Sp33d Zer0Feb 21, 20178 votes

People are acting like Riot hasn't already stated they are looking at different nerfs for it.

ShaolinToiletFeb 21, 20175 votes

The poster knows he just wants upvotes though

DerfelFeb 21, 20178 votes

The fact that it's still not disabled tells you just how much Riot gives a fuck about the balance of their game.

A Kiting JannaFeb 21, 20174 votes

Well I don't think the item is bugged so they probably won't disable it

DepártFeb 21, 20172 votes

Why would they disable and item that is working as intended, Riot hotfixes things if they're that broken, not disables them. See release xin zhao and leblanc.

EoN really isn't that broken, it's a placebo affect. It's certainly too strong with how low the cooldown on the active is, and when lethality gets tuned down a little bit and the active cd goes back up to 45 it will be a relatively balanced item.

paisyFeb 20, 20176 votes

They're nerfing it. Next

dominusxFeb 20, 20173 votes

i dont see Edge of night giving a consistent oppresive slow with every spell casted(talking pre nerf rylai). There is a difference to a spellshield and permanently slowing people and killing them. Edge is strong as FUCK but dont compare it to rylais. Rylais shouldnt even exist.

AhristocatsFeb 20, 201722 votes

an oppressive slow with every spell casted (pre nerf rylai)

and a shield that pop on the entire enemy team each 40 sec, built on graves quinn that delete you from the map in 1 sec, built on varus that pokes with a shield on him, built on zed and talon and riven which is cancer to fight as vlad FOR INSTANCE

the out of combat bonus ms making snowballing easier

it's worse than any removed item i saw in league, because it also (like pre nerf rylai) doesn't give you less offensive power

The Blue RajahFeb 21, 20173 votes

Huh. I'd come to expect well researched and reasoned posts from you malicious, not meme-ish whining.

I would direct you to this thread by meddler:

http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/1cwWmQWi-quick-gameplay-thoughts-feb-17?comment=00520000

In which he said

{quoted} Edge of Night

We're going to see if we can pull a nerf for Edge of Night forwards into 7.4, or at least do a low risk hotfix the same day 7.4 hits. Urgency on that feels high enough at this point we don't think we should wait another patch. Most likely changes (still being discussed) are increasing the CD again and lowering the AD on it. Possible whatever changes are made will be temporary as well if the conclusion during 7.5 development is a different nerf is better long term.

So it is a pretty high priority for them to fix.

agbudarFeb 21, 20171 votes

dont need to research item 3814 is a busted asf item at first glance second glance it seems even more busted because of all the possibilities it provides.

The Blue RajahFeb 22, 20171 votes

That's not my point. What I'm saying is that the post implies that they jumped to nerf rylais (they didn't, it was strong for a long time, almost a whole season), and are leaving edge of night broken for ages, which is just not the case. They're moving to nerf it, and it's high priority. This is just an upvote farm about an issue that's in the process of being fixed.

SarcasticShepardFeb 22, 20171 votes

In a proof, one does not need to prove an axiom. Malicious was simply stating an axiom. EoN is simply put, an overloaded item in a collection that already has diddled the meta more than any priest could hope to match.

ZedexFeb 21, 20173 votes

Rylais was nerfed because everyone was building it along with the other things you said, but that doesn't make this post any less correct

KiyoYoshimaruFeb 20, 20171 votes

Rylai is a good item and should be purchased by all mages every game at all times.

Chaos Milk TeaFeb 20, 20174 votes

When I play a champion such as say Orianna, I decide every game whether or not to buy Rylai's. It used to be a no brainer, but now it's not easy. item 3165 item 3020 item 3135 item 3089 item 3285 item 3100 item 3157 item 3116

These builds function differently, one making you the god carry who can kill an adc in one rotation without using R, and the other saves yourself from assassins and kites juggernauts/brawlers when your team doesn't have enough CC. There are many games where I can't decide if I should build Void Staff, Zhonyas, or Rylai's after boots because they each provide such important, useful, and different functions without one being a clear winner in all situations.
