Why is Ezreal being nerfed when Klepto is the problem?

AirKingNeo··5 votes·1,929 views

Gangplank, Ezreal, and Illaoi are top tier due to Klepto. Bruisers, who are shit, are being playable due to going into tank matchups and spamming Klepto procs.

It's very obvious Klepto is the issue. Laning Ezreal was shit tier until Klepto came. Typical nerf champion, nerf the broken item/rune, the champion is shit special.

Why is Klepto going untouched while Ezreal is painted scapegoat?

You said it yourself.

Ezreal has been chosen. Getting the Riot special, or Riot deluxe, whatever way you want to call it.

What is happening to Ezreal is actually gross and disgusting.

Or Riot could just lock the RNG part.

Lock out loots based on level, so people can´t RNG their way to getting gold bags with 100 gold in them 3 goddamn times in a row.

Until level 6 you can only get biscuits, wards, gold bags between 10 and 30 gold, no Elixir of Skill chance. Between levels 6 and 11, Adaptive force potion, mana potion, gold bags now between 10 and 60 gold, 0.01% Elixir of Skill chance. Between levels 11 and 16, Travel size elixirs, gold bags between 10 and 90 gold, 0.05% Elixir of Skill chance. Level 16 onward, gold bags between 10 and 120 gold, 0.1% Elixir of Skill chance.

Riot just needs to put the rule bending part of this particular Inspiration keystone under control. And then see how champions abusing them perform.

they need to remove klepto. Its a bad rune design. Im sure they can replace it with something that fits the game better and doesnt just outright break champions.

Illaoi is not top tier

she's strong but not among the strongest top laners

at least in high elo

NASUS is a problem on the other hand

The best way I can describe Nasus is overpowered, but won't ever be competitively viable.

Ezreal isn't TOP Tier anymore though, he's dropped to 50% winrate. Vayne is GOD right now.

Riot thinks he's strong but he's not really. He fell down the ladder in what people play.
