Lucian in danger of becoming useless again.

NyxPyre··10 votes·959 views

With the upcoming nerfs to both ER and his ult Lucian stands to be put back on the bottom. Lucian's ult nerfs but him right back to where he was before. The item changes as well will indirectly nerf him too. I really want to know how Riot plans on keeping him relevant if he is about to lose everything that made him playable this patch. It could be time to just rework him in full if a fair balance can't be achieved through items.

All this does is move Lucian from a very safe, very strong ADC into a very safe, strong ADC.

uhh they're changing the culling to be weaker early on but significantly stronger later in the game. idk if that qualifies as a nerf

Lucian does NOT need a rework. He's got a great kit. And right now he's very strong, the nerfs sem justified to me.

You do understand that also nerfing his items stands to send him right back into the gutter. How is that fair? Luc has been the worst Adc for so long and now that he is good again people over react. What happens when item 3508 gets nerfed too? Lucian will have nothing. These upcoming nerfs already delete all the minor buffs he got along with every other adc. You don't see any other Adc getting this treatment. So why Lucian?

Not shit posting if I legitimitely think all of them should get the same treatment.

Now you get out.

Best nerf ever, which Riot treated everyone like they treat Vayne.

It was a pretty good nerf, considering it immediately brought her win rate down from 52% to 50%.

Psst, now she has 12% max health damage on proc @ max lvl.... 3ad for EXACTLY 50% more % damage per level is not a nerf in the end...

And now she is better than before.

Wait, I thought with the ult change they were nerfing the base a bit, but changing the scaling from bonus AD to total AD, making it a net buff. I could be making stuff up, IDK.
