Thank you Riot, for DESTROYING my favourite top laner...
Old
was actually fun to play in top lane because he meant that you did not have to play an all in damage based AD Carry. He could go even with pretty much everyone and was a great pick against high AD damage bruisers like
and
. However the rework has TOTALLY destroyed his solo lane performance.
His kit is just so lackluster now and feels like a totally different champion. What happened to "Radiance", that ult was a great, unique buff that game everyone additional resistances and Riot just destroyed that and replaced it with a timed invulnerability that is only useful in certain situations due to the timed nature of it. Its just so... BORING. A few champions already have invulnerability and he would never need it as a toplaner.
I bet you would never removed
's R, would you and replace it with something so lackluster. Taric is an alright support but just isn't that rewarding or fun anymore. His targeted stun made him a unique champion that was good in various different situations and it seems like Riot removed that in order to make it easier for ADC's to just pick him off.
I am deeply saddened by the loss of my favourite top-laner and anti-assassin pick against mobility-damage spammers like
. I am going to refund him because he just is not worth the effort of learning in his present state and his heal is actually more pathetic then his original one. He could heal himself for double the amount and protect his ADC for longer. Now he just feels... well generic and boring.
I doubt he's popular enough to get another rework like
did. I think its digusting that this games balance is dictated by what makes Riot the most money and its making League less fun to play. I don't play
anymore either because of boring (more dependent on others) kit since her rework. Even
feels less impactful and less fun since his rework.
If they rework
, I think I will just drop league completely. Its not worth it.
