I really don't like that we have so many buffs on PBE lately

ThePikol·Mar 28, 2018·4 votes·397 views

Zed is getting buffed for the 4th consecutive patch. And why? Because Duskblade nerf? Seriously, Zed meta is not fun. , , , , , , , , , , , are all getting damage buffs, cooldown reductions or mana reductions in the recent 3 PBE patches. Tabis are getting nerfed which means even more damage from ADCs We see no crit items, nor ADC nerfs so far.

And as I do think some champions are struggling I would rather see some nerfs to other champions and then see how everything looks.

If someone has low winrate it doesn't mean he's weak overall. It means he's weak compared to other overbuffed champions. If you nerf them first the winrate of "weak" characters will raise.

We do not need more damage in the game. Everyone is already capable of one-shotting everyone. Baron is taken in 20s after spawn. Towers are getting destroyed in one minion wave if you dare to go back to base or get killed.

Can we please get more nerfs?

Riot's balance team are a bunch of Zed mains.

Forgot who said that but I've been parroting it for years.

Then there was the overall nerf to Kogmaw over two patches... Tristana nerfs. The Twitch overall nerf

"No" nerfs. lol

Elise Rumble Karthus <--- This 3 champs is struggling not only for other champs power but more for meta swapping (eg karthus has lost too much dmg from dft and +10 dmg(+20 if hit one target) wouldn't make him stronger) Khazix <-- he didn't get any buff this patch. Leblanc <-- The champ got a (old)rework not a buff. Right now adc are totally support relivant and their power get gutted by several nerf/item (Guinshoo/stattik shiv). The best problem is that the Adc+support combo can outscale so hard the other role (SololaneCarry) too fast. ADC are suppose to kiting/dealing damage to tank/melting tower. Adc should't beat 1v1 assasin/bruiser/fighter (expecially the last one). They shouldn't be more oppressive than a poke mage (bad early game/stronger late game) They shouldn't suppose to burst other adc/assasin. They shouldn't suppose to clear wawe fast than a melee should if they don't waste an ability to do it(eg cait Q sivir W/Q jinx Q lucian Q). Stattik nerf compensate the burst/wawe clear option. Varus/Kog maw lose the ability to be too annoying ealry game coz guinshoo nerf. Bot lane tower need some adjustment on early game because it's too dominant who take first tower (and the laning face last too fast compared to mid/lategame)

Karthus is weak because everyone had Zhonya some time ago. There are too many shields and invulnerable skills in the game.

I said in the past few patches. Kha got buffs on his Q.

LeBlanc:

Distortion (W) 
    cooldown lowered from 18/16/14/12/10 to 14/13/12/11/10
    mana cost lowered from 80/90/100/110/120 to 60/75/90/105/120

Mimic (R)
    RE Initial Damage increased from 60/120/180 (+0.3 AP) to 70/140/210 (+0.4 AP) 
    RE Root Damage increased from 120/240/360 (+0.6 AP) to 140/280/420 (+0.8 AP) 
    RW AP Ratio increased from 0.6 to 0.75

Yes, there was Static nerf. Whole 20 less dmg in late game vs champions.

Adc should't beat 1v1 assasin/bruiser/fighter (expecially the last one). They shouldn't be more oppressive than a poke mage (bad early game/stronger late game) They shouldn't suppose to burst other adc/assasin. They shouldn't suppose to clear wawe fast than a melee should if they don't waste an ability to do it(eg cait Q sivir W/Q jinx Q lucian Q).

But they do and there is nothing being done to stop it.

You do realise that with assassins and engagers getting stronger, Marksmen will be relatively weaker?

All of these are indirect NERFS to marksmen.

ThePikolMar 28, 20181 votes

And that's what I mean. Rather than nerfing ADCs Riot is buffing assasins. We have seen it way to many times alread when one class is getting buffed because the other is too strong. Infinite powercreep cycle
