Next URF Riot should disable trinket CDR

Shroom Junkie·Apr 24, 2016·1 votes·459 views

Seriously, its the most annoying thing. I can't play Teemo, Shaco, Rengar, Kha'zix, Talon, anyone with a stealth, because the red trinket. Sure, a pink that can go down and you can only hold two and place one is fine. But when I'm Teemo and three to four of the enemy players have red trinkets and I'm useless, it pisses me off so much. If five of the enemy have red trinkets and so they have no vision then sure I'll sacrifice it, but when red trinket is up almost all the time and everyone on the enemy has it, I am, in essence, useless.

Oh no, counterplay.

Counterplay =/= Making a set of champions completely unviable

Imagine if an item that anyone can buy for free removed all the damage for say, 5 seconds, from a squishy assassin. Suddenly they can't do ANYTHING.

Counterplay is making a champion weaker because you play smarter or have a good ability to help. The fact that people can give 0 craps about a Kha or a Rengar jumping on them, or a minefield of Teemo shrooms, or a Talon ulting on them because of one free item is complete bull and ruins my URF experience.

I get a red trinket every once in awhile, sure, but when I literally can't even plant my shrooms because Diana is jumping on my arse every time I show my face and I can't protect my self with my shrooms, I am literally doing nothing besides feeding the enemy.

If they use a red trinket every time its up in 1-2 minutes, and buy a pink ward that actually costs something and they can't just spam for crap, plus can still be destroyed, then okay I'm fine with that. But when I'm useless, no. That's bullcrap.

Whats the cooldowns on those abilities, again?

Oh boy, every 120 seconds I get to destroy shrooms or counter them. Whereas their URF cooldowns let them do it how many times in that span?

Yeah, the cooldowns are reduced on equal terms. Deal with it.

Considering the red trinket stops them from even activating the shrooms, no it isn't.

And what would happen if we didn't reduce trinket cooldowns?

The map would be covered with shrooms and corpses from Rengo's attacks.

We get it. You like a champion. You don't want them countered. You want the game mode's mechanics to favor them.

Did I say remove the entire trinket? No, I said don't put the URF CDR. Rengar, Kha'zix, Talon, any of them can be hit so easily when they're seen its retarded, the Lux and Morgana Q's and the Ezreal spam, everything just destroys them if they're seen. And Teemo has a 20 shroom limit, dipstick. So no, it wouldn't. He would just be useful beyond spamming his Q against mostly ability using champions that does less than half of a Nidalee spear.

I get the gamemode doesn't have to be completely balanced, some champions are crap and others are OP, but Rito can at least do their best to put everyone on an equal playing field and keep from reducing any stealth champion to nothing because of a free item from level 1(and even worse past 9).

Shaco too, now that I think of it. If he's seen he's blown up. If his boxes are seen they're useless.

Try some other champions, perhaps? Nothing wrong with varying your games.

I do vary my games, I play tons of different champions. But just like norms, I love Teemo. He's my main, and I love playing him. Why should I be completely counted out of the game because of one totally free item? It makes no sense.
