when do mages, assassins, and bruisers get the adc, tank, and enchanter treatment?

NOT A BOOSTER·12/13/2018, 9:18:01 PM·36 votes·9,102 views

why is it ok to wholesale nerf classes into the ground for several months? why was it ok to throw a hand grenade into the balance of these champions in the middle of the season, but now that its preseason, you barely touch the shit that has been busted for 6 months?

anything with upfront burst is too strong. conquerer makes tank items irrelevant. triforce + titanic + steraks is busted. mage supports are out dpsing adcs with 30% less gold. are we going to get real changes to this shit? or is league of legends just about insta gibbing your opponent with your oP 1 sHOt BuILd

can we get some real balance changes, or at least an explanation that league of legends is going in a completely different direction now. it feels like every class is being slowly reworked into bursty mage-like champions.

i guess we'll just pretend that bruisers and assassins didn't go through multiple periods of being complete ass as a group

Tanks? You mean Large Assassins?

Mages? You mean Blue Assassins?

I'm sorry what? You're seriously saying MAGES are overpowered? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Go take a mage to mid or top lane and watch them get obliterated by assassins and bruisers.

I mean, it's not a matter of when mages will get a class wide nerf, it's a matter of which one you will consider big enough. I'd say that the MYMU was a pretty big nerf to mages with the removal of mana regen, WotA, and a number of itemization changes that actively hurt mages.

i like how enchanters are still viable just not constantly the top 1-4 supports played yet considered weak

You mean that time when Kog Maw facetanked 5 people because he had Lulu on his team?

Bot lane is just a mess right now.

We still have supports taking summoner 14 even though we're long past the item 3504 meta.

Damage is off the charts making supports like even more brainless.

Pyke almost nobody likes playing against him.

When we ban him because of his ridiculous safety, we're stuck facing Thresh over and over again.

And then we have Lucian .

Riot has a lot to fix, so I don't know why they're being shy. At this point anything would be better than what we're experiencing now.

i agree with everything except mages, tbh every patch there is only about 1-2 mages that are actually decently strong.

"mage supports are out dpsing adcs with 30% less gold."

Buddy believe me, as a mage main myself, i find it an abomination for the class i main to be played in support. Especially with my main champ Velkoz

Tank treatment? You mean giving bruisers adcies assassins mages kits so overloaded, no matter how much you fucking suck, you decide the outcome of the game? Hell yea why not.

By getting the adc treatment, you mean we need to say "Mages in 2k18 LUL" and then they get busted for several months straight right? Or do you mean they get almost all their base stats and scalings buffed after an itemization nerf who also ends up getting buffed back? Or maybe you mean they get their burst damage nerfed, only to get a new item enhancing even more early burst just like item 3095 ?

tell me which bruiser is op at the moment which bruiser is strong besides this jax circle jerk the boards got going on and do not say irelia because shes a special case. bruiser items still cost more then adc items. Conquerer isn't even what bruisers wanted we wanted ferver back no one wants all this aids true damage everywhere and all this hybrid damage also that no one can itemize against . Instead of targeting all lasses I think we should just freaking undo the runes and rework major key items such as deathcap, ie, trinity, and botrk.

About 1 year apparently. Assassins and bruisers were quite shit in S7 and early S8.

well i know that assasins already got their adc treatment when duskblade was removed from the game... so yea.

Buddy most assassins are in the shithole for the entire season now, except 1 or 2. That doesn't mean you will not die to them if you suck. God help us to never again witness the idiot proof meta where janna could hold her adc alive while he is facetanking entire team.
