Any Compensation Buffs for the Champions That Arent Kasai When You Nerfed Guinsoos into the Ground?

barely even sees play now except from dedicated players (one tricks) and is an item spike that was much needed to make her even playable sure she's sue to get a joint rework in the future with , until then she may need some love.

I get that Riot is probably steering more towards an archer archetype with that blighted quiver thing that buffs his Q but im sure he could get something

he attacks fast

not really but ill put him here anyway, he got mana cost decreased for his Q OMEGALUL

Varus needs his lethality build back.

While I always liked that his hybrid nature between skill hard hitter and AA champion, I also always preferred the one involving landing arrows rather than spam right click.

You do realize Guisoo's was OP in every single way since its rework? More AP and AD than it had? 4-6 times as much on hit damage? Half charge stacks for melee?

It's so OP that literally almost every single auto attacker was taking it. Not just champs who traditionally build it?

ALL had variants running it. 2 Of the core Udyr builds were running it.

Rageblade was more playable than overpowered, imo, outside of funnel strat and possibly old aatrox. Even bot kai'sa took forever to come online, although she carried harder than anyone else once she did. Unfortunately, getting there was hell. (Her build was actually more expensive than crit -- it just spiked much more smoothly because lol IE.)

I definitely agree it didn't need nerfs in the current state of the game. (Funneling sure as hell did and probably still does, though.)

Congratulations Rito, there were 2 45% winrate adcs last patch, Trist and Cait, thanks to the buffs she got Tristana has near 47% winrate on 8.13 but someone had to take her place so an already weak Varus got his core item nerfed without any compensation.

Now he can hang out with Caitlyn on the bottom.

Kayle has a 51.6% win rate. I'd say the nerfs haven't hit her hard.

Varus and Kog'maw both aren't doing too great but we already established that the Marksmen role died back in 8.11.

all in all it was the worst time to hit the last remaining ADC when Riot Balanced them around item 3124 without any thought out compensation buffs
