ADC's and Auto Attackers will take a pretty strong hit with the Strategic buff. I feel like Tanks will have a Stronger presence due to the reduced damage and the Anti tendency. The reduced Movement speed will also make harder to dodge spells thrown out.

Potential top lane choices. Sion Ryze Singed

Kinda throwing ideas out their. Singed does have a toggled ability which can be used to stack a tear, which could mittigate some of the Mana consumption problems. Ryze has his CDR reduction on his Passive and his Q which might (might) make him a little easier to get off spell rotations. Sion I just mentioned because he's just so tanky.

Jungle: Good luck: the mana cost, CDR debuff, and AS nerfs probably will make any dedicated Jungler unviable

Mid: Zed Xerath Kassadin Ahri

Zed using Energy will Probably still have a decent laning phase (thou his pick potential will be less often) due to the reduced MS having high mobile mages would probably work well like Ahri and Kass. I mention Xeriath only because he could still clear wave even with the increased mana cost.

ADC: Ezreal Corki

I feel like AD casters will have a better time handling the nerfs to mana and CDR compared to the AS and crit nerfs.

Support: Janna Gragas Thresh Leona

Kinda the lock up champs. with the MS nerf, there is always room for improvement, which Janna offers.

I want a NURF: NEMESIS URF Mode.

One side gets the NURF buff and one side gets the URF buff and neither side knowns who is gonna get what so you don't know who you should give to the enemy!

They're most likely trolling, I highly doubt they'd make such a shitty game mode like that, im sure it's their April Fools joke

I'd actually be quite fine with it being the actual game mode. It sounds like fun.

League of Tanks, squared. Nobody would do any serious damage, so the ones that can live longest would probably win.

It's gotta be a troll, though.

I'm betting "This unit is vulnerable to consequences" makes all champions weaker defensively if it's not a troll.

And there's still "Protection against superfluous decisiveness" that needs explaining. There's two parts of that buff that could literally mean anything, so if NURF comes out as it appears it could avoid many of the problems the more obvious parts of that buff create.

Read other posts, including mine. We successfully explain why it wouldn't be fun unless you like reimagining League as chess, rather than a break from chess.

What on earth? Fun is relative. You can't disprove my fun with your own definition.

There are plenty of people who didn't like URF, and there will be plenty of people who won't like NURF if it's not a troll.

Whoa, Whoa. I wasn't saying it couldn't be fun, I was saying it would only be fun if you took it froma certain angle, like some people will. If I look at it as a strategy game, it doesn't seem as hellish for me. Or if you look at froman ironic, heh my teleports ona 12 minute cooldown how absurd ironic/sarcastic/incredulous you can get joy from that. Sorry how it seemed.
