Yh i main swain but after seeing the nerf and how everyone reacted to it im kinda wondering if i should still try.. ppl say he's almost unplayable from the w nerf

Is it true? i dont want to go in a game only to find i get stomped

Almost unplayable because the Root isn't as long? Just makes his power curve less oppressive. Still play him and he does just fine.

I'd say he's average. He's not in a good spot right now, but he's not bottom tier.

I can't abuse him through Gold like I did in Season 5, but I still play him and win games. It's just much less ROFLstomping lane.

He just has a shitty time against some matchups he used to dominate now. Yasuo I believe is one of them

if you know your enemy will fall for the e-q harass and you don´t need to outplay him to keep him in check you can still play swain. I really wouldn´t first pick him at any point though in higher elos...to kill people that don´t know the matchups he´s as good as ever sigh.

No, now that he's come down to earth in power, you better not play him cause he ain't freelo anymore

He's ok. I mained Swain mid. You just can't lane against longer ranged champs, like you could before. So, don't pick him into Lux, Brand, Xerath.

Ahh getting some mixed feedback. Feels like i might have to try him a few times and see if can still do good. im actually pretty annoyed they lowerd his root like that.
