Rito Pls... Bring Him Back

I used to play Rammus pretty religiously. Was actually pretty good as him and I loved it since he was one of the only champs besides some supports that I was actually good at. He was the champ that got me into jungling.

Then I had to take a roughly 6-month hiatus, due to being unable to access League in any way. I come back in around 4 months ago, kinda skimming through the patch notes that I've missed, making sure I'm ready for what's ahead. I get super excited to play my little "gotta go fast" buddy again.

And then I die. Over, and over, and over again. All due to me NOT seeing that he got a 60% SELF-SLOW on his Defensive Ball Curl. After that game, I gave up on ever playing him again. That was the only thing he could really use reliably to try to get himself out of a bad situation, since Powerball is likely to hit someone and is useless regardless if he's hit by a slow. But with that addition it turned into a "Give Up" button if used during a losing battle.

I know it makes sense, considering he's hunkering down to defend himself, and I know he got a buff a few patches ago to cut that self-slow in half, but it still hurts him pretty badly. As far as I'm aware, he's seen as little play recently as Yorick used to see. He needs some love.

Rammus is sitting at a 6.3% playrate, which is pretty decent, with a 53.7% winrate, which is pretty good. Seems fine to me.

Rammus has like the 5th highest winrate jg though

and 4x yorick's pickrate

The slow is a bit annoying but Rammus's job isnt to carry, its more of to just sit in a teamfight and soak damage while ulting, ccing someone, and doing damage to everyone AOE

You also missed the fact that he got his W self-slow cut in half so he is bullshit.

he was one of the only champs besides some supports that I was actually good at

How can one be ''bad'' at Rammus lol

What a moronic thread. Seriously, Rammus insanely strong now because his W now gives him even more armor and MR(if he gets some) because it scales with Total resistances. The 30% MS reduction is fine, it was the 60% damage reduction that pissed people off.
