Now that the likes of shyv finally got some nerfs

Can we expect to get some too? With that huge steroid and slow immunity and true damage made even more insane with sated paired with rageblade, he's too insane. His clears are not bad either.

Riot SmashGizmo actually stated, that he's looking into him already, but not Rageblade is the main issue, but the bruiser Yi build, around Sterakks, Titanic Hydra and Deadmans Plate.

Let's just wait and see what happens.

Idk why did they even nerf Shyvana, Yi is the one carrying games the moment he gets sated and Rageblade not her.

Then you must be a pretty bad shyvana player.

She is easier to peel than Yi, doesn't run around doing true damage either. I'd say she is way easier to deal than Yi.

Yes. Once Yi gets going, he can cut anything and anyone up. Rammus, Voli, Nasus, any tank, any champ. And the sad truth, is hes not any slower getting going than Shyv is. He can power farm his jungle, solo the rift/dragon, and doesnt even have to start pots. The only thing that even hurts him, is if he gets CC'd, he gets blown up. Which is why they just go full tank after 2-3 damage items.

Get Devourer, Titanic Hydra and Zzrot on Shyvana, and see your opponents crying in a circle at their fountain..

55% win rate, 10% play rate she was due to nerfs to her clear speed the main issue. But this nerf was too much they should've toned a bit at a time not all at once.

Nobody who can play this game gives a fuck about Yi or Shyv. Both never used in LCS, neither devourer.

Funny how their win rates are high plat+, oh and this isn't the LCS.

Yea people these days only judging things in LCS when the player themselves aren't even in the LCS....

Well.. You can keep playing your own little organzied play box, while the rest of us gets the point that communication is the key in pro series, which you just don't have in ranked and thus changing the list of viable and strong picks by a lot.

EcchiOtakuTMMar 10, 20161 votes

pro play is just a factor because they can actually get certain comps off well(pre-mades can as well). It's not so much communication but what they're eligible to do as a pre-made who (usually) practiced together. Nerfs tend to happen when they show the power of certain comps.

Meh I already talked enough of it:

I think the problem that the RIOT balance team faces with a champion like Yi is the question of how to balance around true damage in general. Easy access to true damage creates champions that are difficult to deal with even if you give them clear weaknesses.

shyv got totally unjustified nerfs, when really just sated devourer and juggernaut items put together are extremely op.

huh, two sets of itemization that the community really hates because they take out counterplay made one of the best duelists in the game exceedingly strong everywhere? better nerf shyvana into obscurity instead of fixing the items
