But I respect them. I agree he was in a very good spot and needs toned down. Do i think you guys overdid it? Yes, I do, but it's fair because he needed it.

So, when are you guys going to nerf Akali, Zed, Talon, Darius, Kaisa, Jax, and Jhin? They're all problematic too, but i haven't seen anything about nerfs for them yet. What makes Urgot more in need of nerfs when these champions can reign free through the game?

Akali has been nerfed many times recently Zed is uhm polarizing yet weak in the same time Talon is quite balanced Darius is to weak as is every juggernaut the entire class is horrid in a serious elo Kaisa is OP, she was nerfed multiple times altho nerfs barely did anything so she seems to be favoured Jax was nerfed many times recently eventho I didnt even perceive this lamp boy as a problem despite reaver Jhin is dogshit tier

So what exactly do you mean WITH YOUR FKING POST

Your perception on what is strong/weak is off

The whataboutism is real. Out of all the champions you mentioned, Zed, Talon, Kaisa and Jhin do not need nerfs, they're not even close to OP, Akali and Jax have received nerfs and Jax is receiving more. What makes Urgot need nerfs? He has an oppressive laning phase, scales decently well as a teamfighter, is great against tanks (cough cough pro play) and does la fair amount of damage while being tanky.

I know it's pretty frustrating to see your main nerfed, but Urgot has had high winrates and presence in both pro play and soloque.

What are the nerfs exactly?

I'm also an Urgot main but it's my secondary. (My primary is Vel'Koz mid).

This is PBE, right? The Purge (W) cooldown nerf and Corrosive Charge (Q) mana cost increase?

It def makes him harder to play. I would have gladly given up base stats in every area just to have some greater forgiveness in the war on mana.

The Q cost is up 10, which isn't completely horrible - I guess the 5-second add on the W cooldown at earlier ranks will save me mana, but not in a way I'd have preferred.

I have deep misgivings about the war on mana as a general rule. Most champions that use mana are next to useless without it, and it's just fundamentally not a fun play experience to play a champion that can just do nothing but weakly flail its arms because it is so tired.

It would be one thing if you could still reasonably contest, just with more limited abilities. But you can go 100 health to 0 against near-dead opponents if you run out of mana and all their cooldowns come up, and there is no option except to back to the platform, and walk back slowly - which can easily cost you a kill's worth of gold alone for your opponent if summoner 12 isn't up.

I wonder if a more nuanced approach to exhaustion/"energy" in gaming is necessary generally.

Imagine thinking darius is problematic right now.

What a fucking joke.
