This severely hinders AP Kog'Maw, who's a champ I really enjoy playing. Just like how AP Trist lost any kind of power she had pre-6, Kog is now losing a ton of power post-6.
I really hope in the next patch there will be a higher AP ratio on his R to compensate for the reduced damage.
AP Kog players unite!
ploki1222 votesPersonally, I believe that AP Kog'Maw is one of the least damaging (to the game) off build. I seriously don't mind AP tristana getting nerfed, because a character designed around obnoxious long range targeted DoT poke and 100-0 + resets is not fun. A champion designed around landing artillery shot from extremely far and exploding when closed in is a lot better.
I don't mind them temporarily destroying him, but I would love to see some small buffs later on.
Agarn1 votesI think that thing that bugs me the most about it, it that the only place I ever see him banned is LCS. Riot grumbled about people building a team around playing "Protect the Kog'Maw" so I guess they want to move away from carries that can't take care of themselves to some extent. Kog'Maw sees like he should be in a good state in a full 5-man premade specifically BECAUSE he (arguably) needs more protection that any other carry. I haven't seen him banned in Soloqueue since his last nerf, though I have seen Trist getting banned and she wasn't touched this time so I'm not sure what was REALLY the problem with Kog.
Earl Eulrich1 votesSpamming sth. from 1000+ range is not healthy gameplay and should never be overly rewarding. No need to compensate Ap-Kog, he´s still a beast in the right hands.
