"brainless waveclear meta is bad"

Riots trying to fix both issues and boards are crying about "mage nerfs"?

Color me surprised! The changes are very good for the game, dont listen to those silver mage mains riot.

But some top laners and tank supports should also get mana nerfs, champs like camille play out like if they basically have 0 mana costs.

I don't actually have a problem with the mage nerfs, I have a problem with the lack of equality in wave clear nerfs.

Zed Talon Xayah Caitlyn Jinx Jhin Lucian MissFortune Sivir Tristana Varus Yasuo All have waveclear as strong as any mage, and they push towers way harder.

talon waveclear is not nearly as good as a mage

ADCs are going to get adjusted soon, it's better they do them separately so each can be balanced easier

Maybe because mages aren't the only ones with good wave clear,but are the only ones getting ˝adjusted˝? Even funnier, weren't mage meant to have good wave clear as a class?

You dont feel some of the nerfs are kinda overdone tho?

I can see how mage waveclear is a problem but arent some of the nerfs way too harsh?

Feels like some nerfs werent quite justified as some champs didnt even have strengths in waveclear&mana and still got nerfed harshly for it.

This will also allow for more damage to be brought back to burst mages.

You missed the point entirely, thats why you make baseless claims, you simply are incapable of reading comprehension. The problem isn't that the changes are good or bad, that's irrelevant. The problem is they are putting mages even further behind AD without nerfing AD first/at the same time. Simple concept if you are not just being a Sheep and following Riots every whim unless of course its something that affects you then you will cry about it but since you don't play mages, who cares right?

Mages are balanced already, ADC's are not. Hence the reason why people complain.

but resourceless champs are ok?

So long as the Marksmen changes hit them hard we may be looking at a much healthier game state for the 2nd half of the season

I feel like now the jungler is required to hand off blue buff for mid to roam.

Yasuo Waveclears issue? I get my tornadoe every 3rd Q and it crits.

Its not a coincidence that every single thread that is complaining about the Mage nerf is mentioning ADC. Maybe do research next time to figure out what the actual problem with a mage nerf right now is.

Can I ask some questions then; and you're free to sum them up with "wait see what midseason patches bring" because that's what I'm going to be doing, hoping that there's something that addresses these if I don't get a good answer from the boards.

So how are ADC's effected by wave clear above mages- is that just another advantage they have? Is League now rock, paper, scissors? I'm genuinely curious about your input on that. Do you feel ADC's should have more pushing power without sacrificing any resource, versus mages who I feel should be able to burst down waves easier than other classes with their kit, but their abilities come at the price of their damage. Either you build mana and lose out on damage for more abilities, or you build damage and lose out on the ability to clear better/faster. When the team game's reliance comes down to hoping the ADC gets fed, you're kind of left with no clear without sacrificing your damage. That doesn't seem very fun.

Tanks have items that let them effectively wave clear if it's not in their kit, ADC's damage is right now sustained by being alive, while Mages run out of mana and are now being gutted on that front.

I'm more than willing to wait and see what is happening, but with patches being released without context to what is coming forwards, you have to admit it's a bit trying and understandable for people to make the other threads.
