I'm trying to fully understand this without just facepalming myself unconscious.
Simple question. How, in any way, was MF brought into line with ADC's such as Jinx and Sivir.
How was she updated?? You took away her healing debuff and gave her Teemo's W. Uhm...
Thanks?
I really wish we could get an answer to this... When her VU went out, they said they thought she was 'healthy.'
Annnd proceeded to remove her GW while promising more AS on her W, and then scrapped that as well.
I just find it pretty rich that when they just decided Ashe needed a damage steroid (which they were quite right), they decided Miss Fortune, who has much less defensive potential, doesn't need any help.
It is really disturbing that riot managed to call MF as being in a healthy place, while also being so inept as to nerf her and call it a buff. Removing grevious wounds and replacing it with a refresh on what is one of the worst passives in the game is mind boggling. Oh wow dot dmg doesnt stop mf strut now!! woot so you mean like 1% of the dmg in the game? The kind that is also never seen in bot lane? mean while they turn Azir frombroken pile of OPness into EVEN WORST BROKEN OPNESS BRAVO RIOT!
It would be really nice if w gave a speed boost instead of activating strut, beause then you could stack your speed (and it wouldn't be instantly torn off again by the next autoattack you take). Too bad the whole "passive stays onn if you are shelded" part rarely comes up, because most of the time any shields you have are less than sufficient to cover a single source of incoming damage (okay, it allows her to keep Strut through minion autos if she has BT, but that should be a default effect she doesn't need shields for)
I honestly feel she is completely the same as before, only change is her auto attacks feel worse now.
Its because she is now more consitant. Even without GW, she feels stronger now because a few reasons.
There is a lot of power in her passive now. It is not longer disabled by damage if she has a shield to block it, or if she is hit by a DoT. SHe also snowballs harder now because of her kit changes. Double up has a massive crit on its bounce, its like headshot with extra damage. Also Make it Rain is now somewhat useful early game.
I would still like them to give it more attack speed, but honestly I think she actually IS in a better spot. I mained MF before her rework, and played he ron the PBE, and continue to main her, so I know what I am talking about.
I still haven't seen a single MF win since the rework. She is like 0-24 in games I have seen and played in.
I like the double up change for the most part but I agree everything else was a nerf that they called a buff. Make it Rain still costs far too much mana and has too long of a cast time to help her much (plus most adcs have dashes to get out of it right away and it's damage is pitiful).
Grievous Wounds removal would have been worth if the text of the website was literal, that she would be the same bonus MS as strut when activating W. Then she would have some mobility and maybe be good. But no, it just reactivates strut and immediately gets canceled by a single caster minion. Pointless unless you are chasing.
She got a visual update, first off. In terms of gameplay her Q bounce now has the potential to do even more damage on the second hit, and while her GW is gone on W the instant reactivation of her fully charged passive is huge. That passive is her mobility and being able to hit one button to instantly refresh it at a low mana cost is an enormous boon. On top of that the stacking of impure shots has a higher damage potential. Her E got a straight-up buff having a much heavier slow, granting her better (though still not great) self-peel, and her ult blends better with her W. It's a major QoL change overall.
