Aaah, yes. About Swain jungle and mid lane talisman.
So, i have a massive fucking bo i'm pretty excited about Swain's rework and i can't wait to play him at a viable level in the jungle.
Right now he seems to be ok played as a jungler because how talisman works on him: basically what you do after you got leashed your first camp you hit either yours or the enemy raptors with W that has a considerable range and can hit them from almost any spot in the jungle and you drain life from them, allowing you a normal clear that won't get you killed in 3 camps or less.
As soon as i realized this i told myself: there WILL be some motherfucker that will take spellbook and abuse this shit mid lane, it will just happen.
And it did.
I don't use plebbit but sometimes i just give it a read as a newspaper for league news, and i saw a guy suggesting to use AOE abilities as a form to sustain in lane (aha jokes on you fam, if you only built flask+ 1 doran you would have all the sustain you need before having to recall to spend your gold, but just like when i suggested Bjerg to build double dorans last year and i got laughed at until it got nerfed for how strong it was, or just when i suggested minion dematerializer on waveclearers and oh snap look at what ornn and malzha are going in pro play? I'm not a coach btw...
People won't go that build until it's too late.
But we all know that only noobs build flask because they need extra HP to survive even if flask does more PvP damage than a doran so yeah, not going to happen.)
Also to all the Fizzes that still go Dring on him, good job keep up the good work! ( '_') b
ANYWAY. If this gets nerfed/removed Swain won't be able to jungle anymore.
And since i know how riot thinks, and how the balance team works, since they have PHDs but they can't figure out how give over time mana costs to fiddle's W so that he doesn't have to spend 1600 mana to clear raptors, i'm here to make my stand.
Riot, please, find a way around making talisman work only in the jungle and DO NOT cut out Swain from the jungle's champion pool. I know you guys don't want him jungle but Kled is fine, but please, don't do this to me. I like him too much. Thank you for your understanding.
One of the possible ways to clear the jungle as Swain.
