Wondering about what is going to happen in the preseason

Bârd·Oct 12, 2015·4 votes·378 views

How many marksmen are getting reworked? How is crit getting changed? How will yasuo, ashe, and GP be changed along with crit? Item reworks? Is QSS getting more things to build into? Are more melee champs (or ap carries) going to be sent into botlane to fill the damage role? Are runes going to be seeing changes? Are there plans for a new map any time soon? It has been a while since Dominion/New treeline. Are any marksmen going to be sent mid? Will teemo be getting an infernal skin? Will graves get a cigar?

Yeah, I'm looking forward to preseason changes. I suspect Ao Shin will be released around that time.

Highly unlikely we'll ever see Ao Shin anytime soon. Any and every thread i can remember with a Rioter in it this year about Ao Shin say that the champion has all but been scrapped because they couldn't find a good kit or even decent visuals for a champion to give him. They still want to bring a dragon to the field, but there's no telling if and when they'll ever be able to.

That said, I don't believe they'll rework crit damage anymore. I bloody damn hope they do, but i don't think they will. Among champs stated for deeper changes i believe Lucian, Corki and Kog'Maw and Caitlyn may be aimed at specifically. Not sure, too lazy to go look directly.

They said he would most likely be released early next year. Probably a bit after the preseason, to be honest. Also, they said they really want to make him, but they're just doing a shitty job at it. I doubt he'll be scrapped.

Riot just took two of the abilities and the passive they were going to give to Ao Shin and put them on Yasuo. Its how I always took their PR talk any time Ao Shin is mentioned.

Based on the fact that they reworked Ashe to work with crit in its current state a few months ago, it probably won't be change this season at least.

What I want to know is how they plan to PR spin the next set of Sona nerfs and Lee buffs.

Sona's boobs are oppressive and Lee needs to kick them in, duh
