Riot Games considering to nerf Aery already

"Aery seems to outperform Comet on some champs who should be good Comet users, assumedly because of its higher reliability."

Just when I found a comfortable setup to compensate for DFT in the wake of this fucking god awful rune system, Riot Games is already contemplating to nerf Summon Aery to be in more line with that fucking vomit known as Arcane Comet.

instead of nerfing aery they should buff the garbage that is comet

Comet is just so easy to dodge. It will miss you as long as you dont walk back into it or arent just standing still. Most people are moving around as they CS or trade anyways so it does nothing

I think the problem isn't that Aery is good, but that Arcane Vomit is bad.

Though unlikely, it means they could buff comet instead.

I tried comet and went "wow this sucks" then I went down domination for Syndra instead

LOL

Its not even the strongest option so the nerf is unnecessary.

I down voted you for tone, but you are right that comet is not desirable. I also do not feel aery is overtuned, at least on ap Champs

Honestly if there's any keystone they should be nerfing imo it's Press the Attack. It is annoying though that a shield based keystone is being used as a poke tool.

Its not shield based though? Its a hybrid rune intended for poke mages and supports.

Which is in itself a problem because mage =/= support. No matter how much riot wants all mages to be auxiliary supports for their glorious marksmen.

I'd consider Aery to be for champions with shields specifically as you're giving up half of it if you don't have a shield. Lux would be a good example of a champion that Aery should be okay on(though I personally think she'd do better with arcane comet because you can actually hit with a 100% success rate with Q so long as you actually land the Q, but otherwise the meteor wouldn't fire so 100% success rate). Morgana, Lulu, Sona, etc. It seems to be a more support based rune if you ask me.
