ADC update: Graves: WTF My auto can't penetrate! But My Auto so strong, Q Dmg Broken, E dash so often Quinn: My Q is mini nocturne ult now! I can fly at speed of 5000 with no CDR! Kogmaw: I can attack at insane speed! Caitlyn: I can lay trap, trap, trap, trap, trap, trap, trap, trap, trap, tra.. Corki: I can flyyyyy. I am best initiator every 5 min~~ MF: I can do half DMG of enemy HP with 1 Q.

Tank update: Darius: Swiping soraka (Mundo ult from 1 Q) Garen: Spin spin spin, more spin Skarner: Naut W every 5 sec! I can gank now before lvl 6 with my ranged slow+stun! My jungling so fast with passive! Mord: Auto Auto Auto. Enemy slain. (Lvl 8 Morde at botlane vs lvl 5 enemy adc)

Mage update: Anivia: ??? my R so tiny Swain: ??? Why I get stunned everytime I toggle my ult Cass: ??? I am draining my mana so fast. but it does 10 damage? Brand: My skills do only half dmg.. Velkoz: I do no dmg with ult unless I pop up my passive. Vlad: Wtf I just did my combo while dodging skillshots and still lost 30% of MAX hp....

Replace Tank with juggernaut and you're okay

Tank update?! Those are juggernauts. Tank =/= Juggernaut

Juggernauts are a fighter subclass

You're mistaking final thoughts with first week thoughts. Here are the first week thoughts of the previous ones. ADC Graves: wtf is this AA? How am I supposed to CS????!?!? Why can't my Q go through walls wtf Quinn: RITO... My ult execute.... Why Kog'maw: RITO how dare you turn Kog'maw into a pure W bot Caitlyn: Can she shut up with the boom headshot already? Corki: this one was pretty spot on MF: Great job Rito putting all her damage into her ult and making dueling harder with love tap passive.

Juggernaut Darius: why does my Q have a delay? Now no one is going to get hit by this Garen: spot on, but he was already a beyblade prior to the update Skarner: PBE users: Too weak. Rito: ok we'll buff him. Main server: What is this OP champion Mordekaiser: FUS DO RAH

Fid changes. Um. Ok.

Mord: Gutted Skarner: Broken then gutted Darius: Actually in a pretty ok state right now. Garen: Same as Darius

You are seriously overvaluing the Darius heal. It's 15% of your missing health, that's nothing compared to 45% of max health.

brand is still strong. stronger in some situation. it was toxic for him to land a single spell and chain his passive up and destroy your sustain. now he has to chain his spells to do damage which is healthy.

vel koz can be considered stronger.

cass swain vlad are all weaker.

anivia. well screw anivia. they can nerf her for days and i'd be ok with it

Vlad, Swain and Cass have already been addressed and are going to receive hot fix buffs.

Brand is OP, the fuck are you talking about? 12% max hp damage that scales even more with AP. Its also AOE and can be proc'd on several people during a fight nuking everyone.

Vel'koz is better if your good at Vel'koz, he's worse if you aren't.

Anivia idk, i've always had a really big hate for Anivia, but haven't actually seen her played yet so I can't tell if OP , or UP.

Malzahar: W+E kill anyone Veigar: I get stacks from landing skills now, 500 ap for free Zyra: I have 2341431341 plants at once now

i mean uh

brand is strong as hell, i don't know why you think otherwise Anivia, my Anivia main friend insists got buffed with the changes, though the boards would tell me otherwise Cass is getting hotfixed Swain had a change that wasn't meant to go through (channel on ult) and is getting hotfixed Vel'Koz requires more time to set up for his best-case scenario, possibly too demanding, but he is definitely still usable. Viktor is probably better than I gave him credit for now

compare that to the juggernauts here; Darius - the only one people still pick Garen - sort of okay right now, nothing special outside of cheesing the villain Mord and Skarner - might as well not exist

overall mage update was a net positive, imo

Only half the Juggernaut updates were not complete disasters, excuse you.

Mage update: Malzahar: ??? I am no longer a mage or laner but instead a jungler now. My spells are weak and I rely 100% on these bugs around me

And that´s guys why RIOT hate AP champs.

Would you have preferred they overbuff their third subclass of champs?
