Riot Did Good On This Patch.

Riot this is one of the first patches in a while where -- yes you made mistakes by buffing certain things, BUT, after reading the patchnotes, you DID NOT directly buff a single things direct damage.

Now i know about duskblade getting 3 lethality but come on, 50 damage for 2 armor pen? any day of the week if u ask me. But for now riot, I hope you dont buff ANY damage, for a long time to come, thanks again for doing something in the right direction.

(ik they messed up buffing yi and rengar, but you guys need to understand Riot didnt buff ANY damage whatsoever this patch, jsut realize this and be happy)

not unless i want to win a game of ranked, no im not. Why?

just curious. by buffing assassin item(s) and nerfing adc item(s) its basically a double buff for assassins. and the majority of ppl i see complain about assassins 24/7. so you saying its a good patch made me assume you are one of them

3 lethality = 2 armor pen, they changed lethality scaling. They didnt buff any DAMAGE. They didnt buff direct damage at all this patch, fioras E has crit scaling, which isnt a direct damage buff because her E damage scales with if ur building more damage or more tank.

I was just saying that in addition to the lethality they lost 50 damage

3 extra lethality amounts to removing 50 effective health against a target with 1667 health. More health than that and it removes more effective health. This is independant of armor values. Whether the target has 50 armor or 300, 3 lethality lowers their effective health by 50 or more at 1667+ health.

The 50 lower damage is only at level 18 btw, while lethality caps out at level 16. Early game the damage is near the same while the lethality provides ~2.5 additional armor pen, doing more damage to any target regardless of health or defense.

Early game it's strictly better, and late game I can't think of single target against whom it deals less damage. I'm pretty sure every champion in the game has above 1667 health before even level 14. What was meant to be a nerf is a straight up buff to the item.
