I get that you don't wanna knee-jerk nerf anymore

But clearly Udyr and Fiora are in need of some nerfs, and they should be done in 6.3, not 6.4.

All that needs to be done for Udyr is hit his late game phoenix damage while buffing the scaling. Drop the passive damage to 10/20/30/40/50 (+25% AP), and the active to 40/70/100/130/160 (+60% AP) from 40/80/120/160/200 (+45% AP)

To balance Fiora you simply change If Lunge hits an enemy, its cooldown is reduced by 60%. to "If you strike a vital, Lunge cooldown is reduced by 60%". Her Utility is what makes her OP. Making that Utility harder to use will balance her out.

Runic echoes should be nerfed, becouse it obviously buffed ap junglers to much.

For example fiddle - 54 % win rate from about 48% one

In my opinion, Jungle Echoes shouldn't have higher MS then Ludens echo has. I think Udyr r (phoenix) demage should be lowered a little bit, so he would be forced to choose between extra moblity and demage early game.

I think Fiddles is just enjoying a nice influx of play after having almost no play time since Runeglaive was made. I think it makes sense for it to have a higher MS considering junglers need it more than mages.

Might be, but he has much bigger pick rate after introduction of Runic echoes.

That doesn't prove Runic is OP, it proves that Fiddles has an actual jungle item now and can actually be played

54 % doesn't mean balance. Most of the time Riot overbuff something or overnerf, becouse, it's hard to find the center, wich would fit every champion well.

I would not be that concerned about Fiddle, the player base generating the samples still is about 1/3 people with over 125 ranked games with him. That is why he had about 50% win rate with worse itemization, the experience level of people playing him is heavy on the highly experienced side. Now if more people with little or no experience start playing him and the win rate does not decline noticeably then there is a problem.

Riot should really consider disabling certain items on some champions as a bandaid fix until we get a balance update(In ranked) Though I don't think they've ever done something so specific before so maybe they just can't.

I just played Udyr jugle for the first time after a long time... Its like wtf, how can 1 new item make a champ that op... Sadly I couldnt carry 1v5 because u know, League is a fair game Kappa

Honestly he wasn't exactly balanced before echoes. Devourer Udyr had the same effect, it was just less tanky due to the lack of AP ratios and slower because of the lack of huge movement speed increase.

What it comes down to is no matter what he builds, he can outclear, outduel, outpush, and outrun any other jungler.

But apparently he cant take the 7 million true dmg ult from a full tank Garen lol

If you want to 1v5 that's what we have Juggernaut Yi for lol

Penns1 votes

Yeah I think I couldve won with devourer Yi because unlike Udyr he can actually do stuff in teamfights too.

Fiora yes, Udyr I don't agree with. Not yet at least, even though his win rate is absurd.

Udyr, yes. He's had it coming even before Runic Echoes. But Fiora? She's absurdly overhyped. She's strong no doubt but nowhere near the dominant, unstoppable force that people are convinced she is. Should she be nerfed? Probably wouldn't be the worst idea ever but there are many, many champions that are far better and easier than her in Solo Q right now. Malphite Pantheon MasterYi Volibear
