i dont know how riot ok'ed these changes. i dont see how anyone with a decent grasp of the game thought these were good ideas

as preseason goes on, and all of you witness how terrible these changes are, ill keep bumping this thread and you can post/upvote so hopefully riot realizes their mistakes

  1. plants. i dont care how you slice it, its not fun running through river and having a enemy hit a plant to gain health. its not fun chasing a enemy into jungle and he gets a free flash escape

  2. fervor nerf. AD/crit users already have warlords. your making yet another mastery thats best for ADC's. the hell is this. this is a straight nerf to irelia, jax, xin, yi, noct, sooo many champions that rely on autos this nerfs... for what? what purpose? to gives adc's another mastery?

  3. sota removal. this mastery was fine. so many champions just got their best mastery removed and will just go thunderlords instead. how boring. also the new mastery will be so niche that its useful on a few tanks with cc.... such a lame niche mastery added, while removing a super awesome balanced mastery

  4. the absolute dumpstering of shaco and akali. these nerfs are so massive, i cant believe someone ok'ed these nerfs. this isnt as bad, because once a champion reaches shit-tier winrate then riot normally buffs them quickly. so im sure shaco/akali even post-rework will quickly get buffs to get a decent winrate again. so really the biggest bad changes of the preseason are the first 3 points i made

  1. No. But we'll see in a month or two.

  2. Fervor nerf was needed. It was too much damage, and was a big part of all those Tank Assassins issues. It was not changed to be better for ADC, not at all. It was changed to be worse as a single source of damage and in on-hit builds with a lot of resets. And even for Crit users, it's still nerfed. Less than for other users, sure, but it's still a net nerf. If they were using Warlord, they won't shift to Fervor because of that change.

  3. SotA was a boring stat increase with nothing interesting, that was good mostly in the Jungle, and was almost always worth the same, whatever your playstyle or champ. It's kind of sad that it still was the best option for a few champions, but this is the only point where I half-agree with you. Still, it's a good thing they removed it and are trying to find ideas for other key-stones. And the new one is great for a whole class of champions which also lacked a fitting keystone before and/or were using SotA. Calling it lame and niche is just your salt over losing SotA, and even if I agree that losing SotA is a hard blow from a power level, it's still a good thing in the long term for game health, watch over it.

  4. Akali and Shaco were not dumpstered or nerfed, they were reworked. Power-level is irrelevant here. If they release too weak, they'll get buff. What's important and needs feedback is mechanical changes like Akali losing the possibility to choose where she places her shroud or Shaco clones leaving mini-boxes. This is important and can't be changed during a regular patch so it needs to be addressed now, but value nerfs (or buffs) are not the question here.

  1. I agree
  2. nerfing irelia is something bad? Good to know. Fervor is really strong, also those champions are not weak and they had not been before fervor appeared + I haven't seen warlord really often
  3. It was the most boring mastery in game and now any champion with hard cc will be able to use that so 90% of sota users. Im completly fine with this change.
  4. We will see.
