EDIT: Shoutout to the silver player with 1300 elo ( http://www.lolking.net/summoner/eune/40843000#profile ) saying that my argument is invalid because im "bronze 3" while my elo is double his ( http://www.lolking.net/summoner/euw/39664840 )

cheers idiot

  1. They nerfed Runic Echoes this week. Don't act as if you've assessed its post-nerf strength yet because you haven't.
  2. Don't use the word "literally".

Runic Echoes just got nerfed... and the best junglers don't use Runic LeeSin Kindred MonkeyKing MasterYi Shyvana RekSai

Probably the only prominent, top shelf junglers right now that really use Runic Echoes are Elise Nidalee , so wtf are you even talking about? I guess Udyr also falls in with that, but he got railed hard last patch so what do you want exactly?

So 60 AP, a worse Luden's effect, and 7% MS is overbearing? Damn, sorry Bard mid didn't work out for you.

I'll take runic echo anything over devourer Xin, Shyv, Yi, Jax.

60 ap and 10% movement speed sure is overloaded.

runic echoes is supposed to be the cinder hulk of ludens echo. devourer is something that has been getting out of hand and causing champs that shouldnt be able to do what they do... do what they do. if you nerf runic you'd have to nerf luden's. there are only a few specific champions that are making runic a nightmare. devourer is for champs that have massive clear abilities like warwick, but champs that shouldnt be getting benefit from it are. that's why it was nerfed. when you start seeing champs like mundo building it just for the simple fact that "it's the only way to compete" there's something wrong.

only enchantment with movespeed ✔ only enchantment with mana sustain ✔ doesn't sacrifice any damage at all ✔

the devourer change is fine because it was something that should have come out with the addition of rift herald but runic echoes needs to have the recipe changed to 2 amp tomes and the movespeed removed entirely.

reason why runic is not being looked at for further nerfs.

item 3156

so long as this item exists, it will be incredibly hard for ap champions to be strong.

The PBE will be updated many more times before it goes live. Give them some time to consider if Runic Echoes needs more nerfs (considering it was just nerfed).

Also, according to your title I can build Runic Echoes on Olaf and he will become godtier. Watch your wording.
