Here's hoping that it's gonna be an actually good and interesting kit unlike the past 3 releases

i only know about things I don't want to see in a kit for a new support champion

A: yet another hook with a slightly different variation B: yet another shield/heal with a slightly different variation C: yet another disable with a slightly different variation

hehe

want champions that are completely unique to themselves.. not just some better version of another champion. Despite how old the game is and how many new champions and reworks there have been over the years there is a LOT of unexplored territory.

like, sad to say, there haven't really been too many hugely unique champions to be released in the past few years. i mean.. they might play in a unique way for the user.. but within the game, they don't actually do anything to change the way the game is played at all... all that happens with new champions and reworks is inevitably cause balance issues due to the older champions being phased out by better newer versions of themselves in the same role.

Thankfully a new enchanter, riot's latest "support" is a champion that goes completely against the principles that makes a support.

I dunno... I'm pretty pessimistic about it. If this is yet another boring low-skill cap white mage, I'm pretty much done with this game. All I've wanted for like 4 or 5 years now, is for them to make an enchanter with the same level of mastery expression as what you can find in literally every other class of champion.

They keep jamming shit into the solo lanes that break the game, and support gets... I dont even know anymore. And I don't even know who Pyke was designed for, because if a support player wanted that kind of playstyle, they wouldnt be playing support in the first place.

Pyke is an interesting design, and Sylas' gimmick is too. However, the past few champions have been heavily based around a single gimmick that doesn't really resonate in their entire kit. Neeko and Sylas both suffer in that their gimmick is extremely limited in application, and so strong it has caused them to get generalized kits.

Really? I really thought Pyke was an interesting take. In any event, not every champion is for everyone. I for one would love another healer/enchanter and I pretty much only play Soraka when I support, but I know most people just flat out dislike non-mage supports.

Why are you hoping that when you know what's going to happen?

All of Riot's recent kits either get complained about into the ground or they suck ass. Riot's recently been leaning more towards the "suck ass" kits.

Giving the rookie dev a chance, chip. He could be CertainlyT 2.0

I have very little hope left, if he fucks up, or the community ruins it with their complaints I'm done. But you're probably right, we both know what's going to happen

We dont want CT 1.0 why would we want CT 2.0?

Abibyama IIMar 8, 20194 votes

Because believe it or not, his creations are one of the factors why the game peaked

5050BSMar 8, 20191 votes

You mean jumped the shark.

We dont want CT 1.0 why would we want CT 2.0?

And this is what I'm talking about.

Sometimes it makes me wonder if a certain dude that lost his job was right about this community

Moody PMar 8, 20191 votes

I would be more sympathetic if that guy made better designs than tahm and azir lmao

Abibyama IIMar 8, 20191 votes

Oh, also Gnar.

I want to take back what I said.

Moody PMar 8, 20191 votes

dodged a bullet he might have made another one :)

Abibyama IIMar 8, 20191 votes

Agreed, promote CertainlyT to lead design

GreenKnightMar 8, 20191 votes

Uh. Are you sure?

...sigh...

Abibyama IIMar 8, 20191 votes

Yes because I want a innovative champion that adds depth to this game.

Yeeeah, i always thought Hearthstone was just a simplified MTG with annoying mana mechanics. I don't have high hopes now, which is a shame, because i was looking forward to a new enchanter to add to my support roster.
