Oh for fucks sake, Lucians nerfs reverted

RedCyclone··2 votes·735 views

Can we please stop this pulling the nerfs on Riots fave champions

It's getting beyond bullshit, underplayed champion starts getting played for a patch or two and gets their knees broken by the nerf hammer, but the good old Lee/Zed/Lucian who we see in every fucking game for the last 2 years, gotta be super careful and over evaluate the consequences of the changes

I dunno, the last nerfs did some good work. His win rate is down, and his play rate is certainly down.

the nerf did absolutely nothing. The W nerf is close to irrelevent.

His Q loses 5 damage at level 3 rank. Means nothing

That passthrough is cute but what happens when he Qs you instead... Lol

Wrong...they made him a much shorter ranged champion, to the point now that he almost entirely revolves around his dash. As in, if his dash is down, he's subpar in fights. He now has clear weaknesses to ranged champions, which he had before. People just knee-jerk to Lucian. If you use that same build on Draven, Quinn or even MF, they will still tear through you just as fast. It's not Lucian himself, it's the fact that Lucian can build like a fighter and be successful with it (and fighters naturally beat out ADCs). He's not the only one who can build this way. He's not nearly as strong as people claim, they just suck at playing against him. In 6.10 I never lost a lane to Lucian while playing Draven or Quinn, using the yommus/cleaver build. Draven flat out trades auto attacks harder, and Quinn's passive + her blind makes Lucian's passive useless and makes you easily win trades against him. Too bad everybody likes to forget Quinn exists.

People want to pick late game hyper carries against him and wonder why they're getting destroyed in lane...

If you picked Ashe mid right now, you'd get fucking destroyed by any assassin like Fizz or LeBlanc. That's what people are doing here when they say Lucian out-trades everyone with no effort (duh the yommus/cleaver build is going to fucking destroy you early when you're a LATE GAME champion). Lots of people don't understand the concept of a late game, they think the whole game revolves around laning phase. If you pick Jinx, you aren't trying to win lane, you're trying to survive it. Understand your champion. Learn your matchups, and how to play them. If you don't want to get bullied by Lucian, you need to play a lane bully yourself, or have a sustain support and play safe and bypass the laning phase. Any other lane bully can go toe to toe with Lucian easily, in fact Caitlyn pretty much shits on him.

Oh hey look. After reading your first sentence i assumed you were a lucian main

After searching you up

Guess what the fuck i found out?

You're a lucian main.

Your whole 2 paragraphs are invalid.

No, it means I have more experience with this champion, and therefore I know what I'm talking about. Lucian is very popular, I don't just play him, I play against him quite frequently. Do you think that a person with 0 experience in a given area is the expert on it? Hell no, you go to someone with experience. Your logic is flawed to hell.

Returned the favor. You're a filthy Caitlyn main, and you're crying about Lucian? GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!

Shit I can even use your match history to make a point. You main Caitlyn, you play her like almost every damn game from the looks of it. She's also not your best champ, as far as win rates and KDA are concerned. Your highest win rate and KDA is on Miss Fortune, but do you even have any idea why? Because she's a lane bully herself, and can go toe to toe with Lucian, who has been extremely popular as of late, and even uses the same build as Lucian. You COULD pick Miss Fortune and do well against Lucian, but you'd rather pick Caitlyn (who you're apparently bad with, why you're maining her instead of someone you're actually good with is beyond me, Cait SHOULD beat out Lucian, she's a lane bully herself), and get your ass handed to you. Then you want to come here and complain about balance when you're still trying to figure out that champion select is a big part of the game.

1 ) '' but you'd rather pick Caitlyn''

Because i play the champion i love to play. Even if i have a lower winrate on that champ.. If anything that makes me less of a ''hey i play broken champs because broken'' kind of person. Thanks for the compliment.

2 ) ''Cait SHOULD beat out Lucian, she's a lane bully herself''

Why? Because you got your ass kicked by a caitlyn so caitlyn now beats lucian?

If that was the case how come caitlyn has never been picked against lucian in the current summer split LCS O_o....

Oh is that information only you are aware too.?

3 ) ''Then you want to come here and complain about balance''

Was i the one who made this thread? I commented on it saying the nerfs did nothing yet you're saying im crying?

I think i triggered your emotional buttons kid.

4 ) '' You COULD pick Miss Fortune and do well against Lucian, ''

You could pick anyone and do well against anyone. Its a skill game

5 ) '' No, it means I have more experience with this champion, and therefore I know what Im talking about ''

Ok since i have more experience with caitlyn and miss fortune ( as you said ) then i guess i can say My main champs ( Caitlyn and miss fortune and ashe ) Lose to lucian because lucian is a lane bully way harder than any of my champs are.

I mean you did say lucian loses to cait. And by your logic i have to believe you since you have more ''experience'' So i guess i can say the same right.?

  1. ''and get your ass handed to you. ''

Well Lets see. Im Gold 1 Half LP to Plat 5. You're silver 3 and you main the undisputed best ADC atm.... So i must be doing something right for someone who ''gets their ass handed''

? If you're going to argue atleast make it hard to beat you in a argument..

The whole point of his Q range nerf is to take away his in lane safety poke. He now has to get in low range to do damage instead of Q'ing a minion and subsequently hitting you.

True changes.

I think the Ult can crit is to entice players NOT to build cleaver and go for full crit so his ult does insanely more damage, but doesn't melt tanks as hard for the (rest) of his team,

Edit: I mean look at mf, she's abusing the same build Lucian is pretty much, but the fact her ult is aoe is a completely different thing, though I do think it needs more toned down on her than lucians.
