Thoughts on Aphelios so far

Even though I have said many times that he is incredibly strong, I do have to admit that he is incredibly fun and well designed in gameplay satisfaction regard.

##Calibrum doesn't really deliver anything Unique out of all of his weapons.

  • Severum - Heals you and gives a shield when at full health.
  • Gravitum - Slows hit enemy units.
  • Infernum - Blasts AoE Flames behind the main target.
  • Crescendum - Fires a quick projectile that becomes even faster when closer to the target.

And Calibrum, just bonus AA range. That's it. The extra AA Range needs to be replaced with something else or something minor needs to be added alongside to it because it's just so boring to use.

##Moonlight Vigil is strong, but thematically it would be nice if it was a global based ability. Based on how the abilities visuals look, you'd think there wouldn't be a range restriction.

Of course knowing how strong he is and how strong this Ability is, I imagine that he would need to take a hit somewhere in his kit to compensate.

Not everything has to be interesting to use.

That's kinda what made Riot start powercreeping the game in the first place. Throw as much shit on an ability as you can so it seems 'interesting'.

Infernum is my fav just for the sound alone and I hate Gravitum just for the sound and the look blah

I've got to play him so rarely it's a great fun to be button mashing and win sometimes xD

Playing aganist him is fine for the most part until he gets two items and one shots you form off your screen with his ult xD

that extra range its a godsend to pro-players when i saw the korean protester(qtpie) play him i knew calibrum was going to be the prochoice weapon for aphelios.
