Friendly Reminder that Tenacity exists.

Q at rank 5 (so, champion level 9) is 3 seconds. Sounds like a long time, right?

+ Legend: Tenacity gets you 35 - 51% Tenacity, reducing it to 1.95 - 1.47s.

And there is literally nothing anyone can build to reduce your Tenacity. Just as well, Ornn is the only champion in the game who reduces Tenacity, when he makes you Brittle.

I know it's tempting to just blindly bring the same runes and items every single game and complain that CC is overpowered, but they don't balance the game around people who don't know how to play it.

Granted, complaints about hard CC that is unaffected by Tenacity have some validity.

3 sec or 1.5 sec whatever you still die before the CC ends anyway.

Tenacity is mulitplicative, not additive.

Boots + legend isn't 60% tenacity.

You get 30% reduction on the original cc length, then 30% reduction of the new number.

So that 3 seconds becomes 1.47.

Which is still better of course, but the real issue is that it shouldn't be 3 seconds before Tenacity in the first place.

i wish there were diminishing returns on cc locking people playing melee can be downright miserable at times

What good is being in a snare half a second or a second less if it takes .5 seconds for me to die???????????

If damage is going to be this high they need to reduce stuns/snares lengths or greatly improve tenacity.

Sadly, there's so much CC and damage is so high with defense being so weak that reducing the duration of CC is pointless for most champions.

I occasionally hear that some Tenacity - particularly its Legend rune - is bugged and doesn't actually provide a benefit.

Well

item 3111 item 2138 is already substantially stronger then nothing

item 3170 plus item 3009 on twisted treeline combined with iron pot and tenacity runes... you can easy get 80% reduction of stuns, and be almost uneffected by slows
