Honestly, strategic value in laning phase is just gone, ignite does so much fucking free damage it's insane. 130 damage at level fucking 3, LEVEL 3, more than 300 at like level 11 or 13, WHAT IN THE FLYING FUCK AM I EVEN DOING TAKING TP TOP LANE ANYMORE WHEN THE ENEMY LANER CAN TAKE IGNITE AND STOMP THE SHIT OUT OF ME WITH IGNITE?

Ignite went from "extra damage to end an enemy in lane after poking enough" to "part of a champion's burst"

It'll get nerfed again after worlds, don't worry. Riot just doesn't want long games in worlds.

What are you talking about - it's not like people would suddenly stop taking TP in competitive.

I don't mind Ignite being strong. You're giving up teleport which over the course of the game can give you an extra few waves of minions at the very least, and makes your top tower more vulnerable. If ignite gives you a solid 1v1 advantage over your laner, I see no issue with it. Not sure why its making people angry tbh.

Because most of those players have passive af playstyles and it really doesn't surprise me that there are more people like that after the stupid ardent censor meta.

Because of that same passive playstyle I bet the adc players always Heal AFTER ignite gets used instead of healing before it gets applied.

Anyways if any top laner with tp is losing to ignite top then they are playing the lane wrong regardless or jungler doesn't know how easy it is to set behind a ignite top laner.

Ignite was meant for kill pressure. People took ignite top since season 1.
