Someone Plz Tell Me These Vayne Buffs Are Just A Bad Dream I'm Having

  • W - Bonus True Damage up from 6-12% to 6-14% -Minimum Damage Changed from 40-120 to 50-110
  • R - Heal for 20% of target's maximum health on kill or assist while under the effects of Final Hour. Must have damaged them within 3 seconds for heal to apply.

You can argue that she's getting nerfed in her Q so her bonus damage can't crit (the double buff of W on Q is a bug) so I guess that's a pretty big nerf to her so she can't ult->Q stealth->take half of your health in an instant, but why buff her in these ways when, as far as I any many other people can tell, she's already favorable in the meta?!?!?

Most of her lane opponents have been nerfed, she has had over a 50% winrate for quite some time and a decent pick rate, and so far in a meta with tanks being dominant I would imagine that she's doing alright.

But now the fact that she has the ability to gain health back from those she kills, let alone kill tanks more quickly now, is going to drive me insane. You dive her with your team get her lo- OH she just killed your tank, got half of her health back, tumble invisi-bullshits again and kill the rest of your team.

This is why I never take balance serious in League and keep it as a joke. FFS!

I'd say it's to make up for the fact that she can easily be bullied in lane, so this buff would help her when transforming into late game hyper carry. The only problem I really have with that is that they are currently nerfing the lane bully, like Caitlyn in the most recent patch, they are also nerfing Draven on the PBE right now.

So yeah, in the end they are nerfing those who can bully her but they are also pimping her, it basically ends up as double buff, I really hope they reconsider this. haha

I feel like the crit build vayne is a lot less mechanically intensive to play at a passable level comparable to OG bork vayne, so the q crit change is going to drag down her win rate a lot due to all the players are aren't amazing at kiting and positioning and instead have been relying on instagibbing people with q crits.

I like where the changes are going. she's supposed to be the anti tank but her q lets her hit like draven. I think it'd be nice to give her some ap scalings somewhere so she could go guinsoos and be rewarded more for stacking her w.
