Xin Zhao BUFFED, Skarner and Zac touched.

- Heal increased by about 4 at all ranks, damage on Q increased by at least 40 at all ranks.

- A whole extra .5 seconds on that E knockup. I won't complain about this though because of the new enchantment.

- TWO extra damage at all ranks on his Q, about 15 extra damage at all ranks on his E.

I'm pissed off about the Skarner "Buffs". You think adding the new jungle enchantment will HELP Skarner? I build him challenging smite with devourer, then go full tank (maybe a wits end) with an Iceborn Gauntlet and bam, you're an excellent duelist. These changes piss me off more than skarner's current state, because you're blatantly buffing a feelo train so more undeserving people can carry their half wit teams out of bronze, whilst underpowered junglers are untouched or barely polished.

Meanwhile Nidalee gets buffed, Nautilus gets nerfed and lee sin is as untouched a fat girl in high school.

What exactly are you complaining about?

Xin? He didn't need any changes.. they must be getting ready to "balance" him

Xin was falling off in the jungle at higher elo because he didn't farm fast enough to make an impact via farming, so he had to gank successfully. Meanwhile, Rek'Sai, J4 and Vi gank better, have better escapes, and farm way faster.

Nautilus got almost straight buffs (the shield nerf is questionable, but E deals significantly more damage than before due to its cooldown being nearly cut in half at rank 1)

Unless surrender@20 is missing something, Xin's Q didn't get touched, only his W's healing increasing slightly and his E getting more damage (40 more at max rank specifically, less at earlier ranks)

XinZhao Changes seem OKish. IMO his problem isn't numbers but a dull kit. Zac Don't play him much. Played him to plane during Nemesis and had fun. But that doesn't mean much Skarner This is an 11% damage buff on his Q at rank 1. Late game it doesn't really need extra damage so overall the change is fine. E change reminded me that it was that low in the first place. =\

New item adds wavelcear and teamfight damage. Loss of tenacity if iffy though. At max level it gets up to 66 AoE dps.

Nid changes are unsure. It wont take much AP for her E to cover the loss of damage on W.
