Will silence be erased from the game? First Kassadin, then LeBlanc, Viktor, now Talon? I'm not saying that i dislike the changes, but what i feel uneasy is that every champion that have silence is being "demoted" and maybe, Soraka would be the only one champion to have silence. Maybe even hers silence would be removed as well.
Zarkkast2 votesSomeday they'll remove Malzahar's silence just for the fun of it, I can sense it.
Marthian1 votesI would suspect it would happen with a rework. His Silence can be dodged, but there isn't a big window for it, and it silences for a long time on top of being a potential AoE silence (and has a great AP ratio to boot.)
His Ult is more problematic since he just uses it on you, and if he's a competent Malzahar, gets a free kill. Yes you could build QSS, but APCs hate it since it doesn't upgrade to give AP and all squishies hate building it because it's a high cost item that doesn't give damage, delays their build by a lot (and fall behind in damage) and Malzahar just gets to build more AP. It needs a window of counterplay for how much power it gives.
eztarg3t1 votesIf this was the case, they would not be giving her an aoe field silence just to remove it later on.
Azushi Shiranui1 votesThey gave all these champions the silence. They also can remove it. Soraka will receive an AoE silence and this too can be removed. When Blitz lose his silence i'm sure you will agree with me that in the middle of a hundred champions only one will have silence...that still can be removed by the developers.
Marthian1 votesSoraka's Equinox is weird since yes it is a "free" silence but at least you can simply walk out of it.
A2ZOMG1 votesYeah. The game would be more interesting if there were more silences, at least if they put them on champions that weren't instant gap closing assassins and bruisers. Also there needs to be fewer slows in this game, or at least several ranged characters with slows should probably have the slows nerfed in many cases.
TrueShotKiller1 votesStealth, mostly gone from the game and no longer that long term for the few who used it to run, silence being taken from the game slow so that we no longer can stop spell casts for a bit making the game more challenging. When they are reomving a aspect, you can see it. I wonder if they will remove any more sorts of Crowd Control such as the knock up or possible knock back but who knows what the future will hold, maybe stealth and silence will make a dramatic comeback with new champions as Riot tries to make the game better for the whole community.
