@rickless I'm amazed that you guys are fine with these LeBlanc Nerfs and are "likely" to happen

Shatter Orb (Q) damage to minions increased from 40% to 80%

Distortion (W) damage lowered from [85/120/155/190/225 (+60% AP)] to [40/55/70/85/100 (+20% AP)]

Mimic'd Distortion (R+W) damage lowered from [125/225/325 (+50% AP)] to [60/120/180 (+30% AP)]

My older post talking about these nerfs: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/YjAOuJHE-i-understand-that-these-are-extreme-and-wip-but-these-leblanc-pbe-changes-are-insane?comment=000f0000

Upon being asked about the changes and direction they're taking with LeBlanc's W: "Mobility, and also the enabler for AOE sigil application, her passive is so much of her damage now."

So on top of waveclear being forcefully shoved into her kit, dealing AOE damage is too? LeBlanc was known for having bad waveclear (especially when maxing Q) and being a single target assassin, and now we're nerfing her W damage when her chains are the problem?

"Akali's rework won't be a nerf" -Rick Maher

What a funny guy.

Lol wow... Reminds me of that time he took away the damage from Karma's RW and RE, and turned from a battlemage into a shitty Enchanter, then buffed her into competitive, nerfed her again. Fun times.

Rickless is a fucking joke. He destroyed Akali and wouldn't even own up to it or discuss anything with Akali players despite them being fairly active and trying to talk to him on both the boards and Reddit.

It's pretty obvious from the shitty bowl cut though.
