Can we show Nocturne some love with some buffs?

Nocturne is kinda weak lately, not just from the meta, his kits kinda old fashioned.

Lets see, Nocturnes specialty is early pressure and, well, Paranoia. As his ult would suggest. You have no idea when hes lurking in the shadows.

However his level 1 ult has a long cooldown and thats fine given the cdr in the meta, but the range on it is so small they can kinda see you coming.

I suggest removing the ult range scaling, and just making the level 2 ult the range at all ranks.

His W is also weak. It's kind of a dead skill in the jungle (which is why it has the attack speed passive) but it bothers me that it's lackluster.

First off its the only spell shield that still costs mana, and a reward for using it is so lackluster I almost forget to do it in any situation except to dodge a vital spell. Buffing the attack speed on proc and making it not cost mana would be a healthy change.

Thirdly his Passive is...strange. It doesn't go off when it feels like it should, it will usually skip a basic. It also does not apply on hit effects. It doesn't proc talisman either, nor does it get any benefits from anything else.

Can we fix these?

I dont really think that's a valid reason to say anything. If you could 'hear' a lee sin Q, it would be the same thing.

Nocturne is an interesting Champion, i love his theme and his kit. But yes, lately with new champions added to the pool, it seems like Nocturne just isn't good enuff and is easily replaced by someone better. Either he gets buffs OR a rework to adapt to those champions he has to kill i.e Jihn or Gnar(small) etc Well see, if you want a reference, look at Yoricks story, took 4 years before anything was done. I do beleive someone, somewhere at RIOT is looking into it. until then...

Keep it up, Stay strong, Good luck

If he could walk through terrain with Q, he would become OP.

His mana costs are too high to lane and Reksai and Rengar are just better picks, if you want to play champions with similar kit to his.
