When are we nerfing waveclear

every champ with high waveclear needs to have their waveclear gutted

im tired of being completely unable to even fucking touch a turret as melee because they have GP or viktor there to delete the wave as soon as it gets close. cancer gameplay that riot makes better every year

Then play something that also has good waveclear. Countering different mechanics, champions, and stats with something is a massive part of the game. If you don't have waveclear and/or range vs a champion with waveclear and/or range then it means you got countered, not that the other champion is unbalanced.

waveclear isnt op, its an essential part of the game

how else would you counter a huge siege or some insane tower dive

wave clear is an essential strat and its not like they can do everything viktor and gp have wave clear and teamfight dmg but put them against an assassin or someone mobile and watch how they do also, if a viktor uses laser on wave, thats one less fighting tool, same with gp barrel, you just dont know how to capitalize on it oh but lucian gets both yes, he also drains his mana pool to do so and gives up combat effectiveness every champ has an up and a down

GP barrels zone you from the wave and when he gets free MS boost you aren't gonna catch him ever. never has to take a risk in lane to do a thing so he's happy to wait for barrel CD and do it all over again

viktor's E has piss for a cooldown and if he's clearing the wave then you aren't fighting

waveclear is on almost every new champion and every reworked champion gets even more. to say it isn't hyper-prevalent is ignorant. it's no wonder juggs get shittier every patch, the entire game is getting stacked against them

Wait. They have 2 people defending a tower from a melee? Quick, rush dragon! They can't contest. Or pressure anothet turret etc

Big Lincoln2 votes

one, they have one person

gp gets to hold turret indefinitely but also contribute globally

oh and even though my CS is higher he has more gold than me xd

Zero chance whatsoever that they do this. Waveclear is increasingly prevalent in champion kits because it makes champions less binary (a champion that's behind isn't totally useless if they're at least good at farming gold off of minions) and they're not gonna reverse that for the sake of melee champions getting to push towers when sucking at that is an intended weakness in the first place.

If you want to get a tower defended by someone with high waveclear then dive them or go do something more useful. Gangplank is the only champion who can stop you doing both of those things well and that is because his design is absolutely atrocious.

If GP gives you truoble, learn to play Renekton.

But as indicated by your other board posts, that would be too constructive an approach to the problem.

Better cry for nerfs. That will help fah sure brah.

it is gutted.... late game only on hit aa champs can wave clear faster tehn anyone. adcs cant wave clear for shyt becuase the cs have huge armor values and ap burst really cant wave clear effectively anyway. look at my history and scroll to my tfs games where i have blade and rage blade. that build is a split push godsend build and will waveclear faster then 5 people combined
