If there is one champion who straight up deserves to become unviable for just once in his lifetime, it's LeeSin.

Especially since Riot shows they have no intention of changing their tiered viability balancing.

Funny enough, Riot follows this rule when nerfing their favorite champions. Meanwhile, those that are not under their graces gets dumpstered and forgotten until a few months later down the road for pitiful buffs.

Personally, as far as I'm concerned, if a champion stays problematic for a long time, they should get nerf hammered into the garbage bin for that length of time as well.

Those mana/health cost nerfs are actually going to hurt Ivern quite hard. They're bigger at the start of the game, don't scale down anywhere near as hard or as fast, and bottom out quite a bit higher than they used to.

Add that to the movement speed nerf he's getting, and he should actually be very vulnerable in the early jungle.

Of course, I think these are terrible nerfs design-wise, but they should at least meaningfully impact his power.

It will impact him a bit, but I don't think it will be major in any way. He can still steal an enemy buff camp in a couple seconds.

It will be interesting to see how it pans out.
