Favorite part since 7'10 actually, that you can go full ad on almost every top laner and that shit actually works, because of stupid mixed damage durability items like ga, deaths dance maw of malmortius, cleaver. Full ad kled or ilaoi is just absurd with these type of builds.

I don't know about you man, but for me, Kindred looks kinda dead. https://image.prntscr.com/image/a5d47c28ba6e4f6986d57621a3cab582.png

Yeah, I'm just glad they've finally done SOMETHING about kindred. It's not the greatest, but t's a step in the right direction.

I didn't even bother checking the source of this graph. 'cause whatever the source is, it cannot be reliable yet, when the patch just went out yesterday.

There is no way that a champion who started this bad is going to reach the heights of pre-gut Kindred.

She has been doing well winrate-wise in the last few months. Yeah, maybe some challenger player said that she is unplayable, but let's get real, for 99.99% of league players, it doesn't matter how she does in pro play.

OK, OK, I'll grant you that. Still, bringing in stats isn't exactly relevant. She didn't receive a simple number tuning, that's a whole mini-rework. What's important is the general direction, not whether the Balance Team got the numbers exactly right on the first patch.

Recognizing that riot is incapable back tracking to fix mistakes.

They realize that they've fucked up on the malzahar rework, but instead of reverting the champion, they just push him back in the direction which he use to be, not helping anything, but making the problems of both designs relevant. It's like they couldn't decide or admit fault, so they just went with the worst of both worlds.

It's like riot decided to run into the woods, then realized they were lost, and headed in the direction towards "where they use to be". Rather than just following their path back to their original location. All they're doing is getting even more lost in the proverbial woods.
