Excerpt: "Wukong however's been hit pretty hard by the combination of direct nerfs and Rune changes. We'll see whether he stabilizes before potentially making changes to him (burst threshold changes add a brief but noticeable relearning period). If he remains as weak as he's currently looking we'll want to do something for him, likely in a way that doesn't add burst damage back (so something like sustained damage, tankiness, regen etc)"

So, it's been 4 months since Meddler admitted Wukong was nerfed too much. Despite that fact and the assurances given by Meddler himself Wukong would receive some compensation if he continued to under perform, Wukong has been given nothing.

We're reaching the end of pre-season in which a slew of struggling champions have been given preferential treatment, I won't name names so as to avoid derailing my own topic of discussion. But Wukong remains in the same state as Riot left him some patches ago.

Meddler, an admission of wrongdoing is great and all, but saying 'sorry' and then delivering us empty promises is worse than doing nothing at all.. So, are there any actual plans for Wukong?

Maybe for them he's not weak, he's "stable".

46-47% Win Rate in jungle and almost no presence elsewhere = stable?

just get dark harvest and run down the ADC every time they show up on the screen until they get armor/hp instead of damage items. that's how i'm losing to wukong rn

taking DH on Wuk is trolling. the rune is weak and Wukong already has trouble to make his ennemy falling under 50% hp mean he how be able to stack it.

His compensation buff was 8% bonus attack speed.

Wasn't nearly enough, I think his Q should've been given an AD ratio if it's going to do 10 damage... But that was their way of addressing his nerfs...

Wukong pickrate fallen so much. Riot wont buff him cause they only look at winrate (like the ignorant of this board).
