Seriously, what is going on here? It doesn't make sense to fiddle around with these lower-priority champions rather than focus on larger-scale projects.

Janna was among the highest priority champions to nerf. The most contested champion in Korea, and third in win rate overall.

Just because she's a support doesn't mean she's fine.

You must come where I come from (Bronze) Well you see, Janna is one of the GOD tier supports up in the high elos, like Not up there around diamond but challenger. In almost every LCS match now.

Sona 3? That's it?

Be grateful she at least got compensation buffs.

What compensation buff?

Instead of straight up making her passive not apply to herself anymore, they basically moved it to her W via buffing it by what her passive would give her.

That is a compensation buff. Trust me, she could have had it much worse than this.

Oh, I'm sure it could have been awful. I would just prefer that the balance team find a way to make larger changes at once. I don't like this feeling that my favorite champion's being whittled down or anything. And I'm not sure it counts as compensation, considering she loses the ms buff every time she uses W, so she loses her original passive while it's on cd anyway.

She is the new Sona?

On a semi-related note: I love Janna because its a skill shot I can reasonably dodge.

Oh, lol. That's true! I think she was in a fine place. Reasonably strong win-rates, mobility and disengage for squishiness and low damage output. That's a balanced champion.
