And I was thinking about coming back to this game.

Then I read the 5.16 changes.

What in the ACTUAL FUCK are you smoking over there, Riot? Did your balance team just decide to think up the dumbest shit possible, and then implement it for a patch to watch the game go up in flames?

I feel like the only person on the planet that thinks current Garen is perfectly fine. He's the epitome of how a manaless champion SHOULD be balanced, unlike the fucking cancer that these three Riven Yasuo Zed have been over the last season or two. Why is his kit getting so drastically changed?

Morde changes make no fucking sense whatsoever; congrats, the 10 Morde mains will stop playing him now because ult'ing dragon isn't enough compensation for getting the rest of your kit obliterated.

And then the armor changes. I guess you just want Vayne to be the god-empress of Runeterra or something? It's quite obvious you HATE tanks, so it makes sense to just nerf FH and Thornmail out of the blue.

Oh, and Righteous Glory is going on it's what, 4th nerf in a row now? 5th? I've fucking lost count at this point.

Maybe this patch will be the spark that'll make a bunch of people leave to play other games. Because I can't seriously think of a reason WHY you would do this other than 'fuck it lol let's just see what happens'.

Thornmail will be better than it is now, currently thornmail does % magic damage returned to attackers. Now it'll scale off your armor so it'll actually destroy ad basic attackers. Although I do like where Garen is at currently, he wasn't seeing enough play compared to other people, Darius needed a fix for hemorrage but overall I think his is going to be the most broken. Skarner nobody really cares about and Mordekaiser, what do you mean his kit to oblivion? All he has to do is help get dragon and it automatically follows him, he doesn't need to waste his ult on it or anything, just basic attack it.

As a dude who enjoys tanks, it was fun while it lasted. It's not like Vayne isn't played in 60% of the games anyway

Honestly, when I read "JUGGERNAUT CHANGES" I was like "oh fuck, fighters rework, is this happening?" then I got depressed after reading these abominations. I mean some of the ideas are cool (Garen's villain), but they butchered Skarner, Morde, half of Garen's kit, idk about Darius. Armor nerfs (AGAIN)

this is probably more ridicolous than the adc buffs + armor nerfs patch 4.something, who remembers that shit?
