I'm talking about the full ap snipe-half-of-your-health-with-one-spear nidalee. For quite some time league was the least balanced game in the history of games, when that kind of nidalee roamed the rift. No matter what champion you played, no matter what you built, she destroyed you by using the same skill twice. And now it's back.
Thank you Riot.
Very sarcastic clapping
ThePurpleKnight2 votesIt never truly left, just got a big nerf which made others go to AD Nidalee instead, it wasn't that AD Nidalee got buffed, that got nerfed to, just less so than AP.
Nidalee is fine, her hit boxes are more fair, high skill = high reward.
Patch 4.10 worst patch in the history of League of Legends. At least IMO. Fuck that shit Skarner and Nidalee nerfs way too harsh.
Epilogue of Life2 votesA champion with a point-and-click CC that allows him to take the enemy champion places sorta deserves a nerf...similarly, a champion who can poke, sustain, burst, and escape via an almost CD-less dash also kinda deserves to be removed from game...

There was no nerf to the ult, they removed important parts which made him who he was, they removed energize and his damage. He doesn't hold you long enough to drag you that far and he isn't Vi or Warwick where he jumps at you from across the map to do the suppression, it's actually not that strong of a move, it's scales with movement speed which he is kind of good for but to use it at a high movement speed it means you can't use W to get near the person, aka they should never get hit by it. The best part of that move is it's aesthetic value.
The real important part to the champion was the dueling parts, the damage was important as it is to all Fighters, and his passive Energize was what made him who he was. If you wanted what he is now, Warwick does the suppression and durability better, and Braum does the stun passive and durability better. There is no reason for current Skarner to even exist, old Skarner was a champion of his own which unique itemization and a fun and thought requiring playstyle. He was also a capable champion without the help of his team.
New Skarner is just a mash up of a bunch of tanks nobody plays and their shitty abilities. If nobody is trying to play Braum in the jungle why make another champion to be jungle Braum, especially when it means sacrificing the most fun and underrated champions in the game. Yea people didn't understand him, neither did the Rioters who did either of his reworks, but for those who did understand him he was a perfectly fine champion.

Na, it's tiny, blitzcrank takes you further most of the time (using W to get out allows for more than blitz but how the fuck you catch them without W?)
I think of the suppression ultimate's, Skarner is the worst, Vi and Warwick both got the gap closer and Vi's team has never failed to get a kill on me when she ults me, Warwick applies all of the wits end and cleaver stuff. Skarner just pulls you a tiny bit, in the best Thresh Lanterns could make it pretty bullshit but right not it's kinda weak. Considering the strength of the champion is entirely based around that since 4.10, he fucking sucks.
Epilogue of Life1 votesOn the other hand, if you ult an assassin who just jumped onto your carry and drags him away kicking and screaming you basically won the teamfight...
