Riot is incompetenet and Yasou is toxic always, Frozen Mallet was not the problem

So they nerfed Frozen mallet because champions like Yasuo were abusing in it?

So instead of just nerfing Yasuo, which you did, to see how things play out, you change 2 separate factors at the same time?

This is like trying 2 new medications at the same time. How exactly are you figuring out which one is helping more?

I've been going on a tear with Aatrox rushing Frozen Mallet. My win rate the last 25 days is 65% and includes streaks of 10 or 7 wins in a row. I'm finally in my series for Gold, and my favorite first item to build is now nerfed because of Yasuo. I have done all the other traditional build paths over last year and I have found that my current build plays out better in more situations overall.

Forgive me if I don't trust Riots judgement. I mean, they basically reverted it back to what it before its last change. Why should we trust that Riot knows what they are doing? Frozen mallet was fine and great for certain champions like AATROX who needed tankiness and more team fight utility...but its ruined now because of Yasuo. Yasuo ruins everything and needs to be deleted from the god damn game permanently.

You've got a 65% win rate because of that item and you won't admit the item might be a little strong? :P

Also, its not JUST the Mallet, its Mallet and Phantom Dancer and Guardian Angel as the core build.

Gnar is a bigger reason to nerf Mallet. Oh and to add up. Stay mad goldie

Hes not. And your comments about staying mad are unnecessary and unappreciated. Go away troll.

actually he is,. gnar has been destroying high tiers and LCS teams building mallet and perma slowing everyone. its why they nerfed it along side yasuo(who have also been useing it)

Then they should fix Gnar. He already has tons of CC built into his kit. Its not the mallets fault.

he is . cleaver into mallet is an insane build. yasuo is garbage compared to gnar

HailFire Dragon1 votes

yes it is. if your aatrox win streak depends on the brokeness of mallet you should instead wait until aatrox gets rework in the new class rework where aatrox will be fixed and turned into a champ whose success doesnt need a broken item thats makes aatrox powerful and other champs broken.

Rolls eyes.

Yes it also depends on the "brokeness" of phantom dancer and guardian angel

I mean why are there even items in the game at all?

to be fair phantom dancer doesnt make you broken like mallet

TheDarkinLegend1 votes

It really does. Frozen Mallet by itself, never produced my win rate. It was only when I started running it with phantom dancer that shit really took off. Insane stick and damage reduction, crits and attack speed and tankiness.

I know. I loved going back cleaver, Titanic hydra, and frozen mallet on tanks who need some damage like sion or urgot. But nope, they don't want yasuo to leave the meta, so they'll ruin everything else instead.

Didn't Yasuo get nerfed though?
