Ornn..
Why is this champion so broken
Why is this champion so broken
Ornn is actually fairly close to being balanced now, sans some tweaks that are still needed to keep him in line.
He was massively overbuffed to compensate for his absolutely horrible release rate (around 30% winrate) because pre-changes he had a pretty high skill floor. I even main/mained Ornn myself on release when he "sucked" and I didn't expect the changes to put him at such a huge "overpowered" state either.
But multiple nerfs and adjustments have kept his kit more in line, for example the damage on his W was cut severely, and the Brittle duration halved, but his E was adjusted as compensation, which keeps him from just being "Press W and win". I will admit he probably needs more adjustments or even damage cuts, specifically on his W (and perhaps a shield adjustment to 14% over 12%, less boom, more tank, since that's what he's supposed to be). But, compared to pre-nerfs but Post W changes, he's relatively balanced (20% max hp every 7 seconds, which an additional 10% on brittle procs.... while building tank lol) So his current 14? 16? %max is much more balanced, on top of a hefty nerf to his cooldowns and some mana adjustments.
