Sorcery Minor Rune Scorch: Can we just get rid of this in favor or something else?

Profirix··2 votes·835 views

With Scorch going from 20-60 damage and a 20sec cd to 10-30 damage and a 10 sec cd, this rune really doesn't offer enough to be worth picking over water walking or gathering storm, ever. I'm not saying that adjusting the damage was a bad idea, but I am saying that 10-30 damage can be out-healed by base regeneration in less than 10 seconds.

Please just do us all a favor and get rid of it in favor of something more utilitarian.

I haven't picked it in many months.

It's identical dps to before if you poke your opponent every 10s.

If it can be out-healed by base regeneration now, then it could before.

This is true, but they are determined to change it. The rune has been underwhelming even for a minor rune since it was nerfed after release. The difference is that now it has even less burst. So don't even think about getting that kill on that ADC that walks away with 25 health.

The DPS application also assumes you are going to hit them every ten seconds, which is honestly a net loss in DPS because it is VERY unlikely you will get your spell off exactly every ten seconds.

Is it strange that a silly skin like Birdio has me more stoked to purchase it than ultimate MF?
