@Rito: As a Swain Main I'm spooked.
I've heard many rumors and hints that Swain is getting a full relaunch after Yorick. I really like his current lore, so I'm hoping it's like GP where his lore is just extended. I'm hoping he still turns into his awesome Raven form, I hope he's still immobile and tanky'ish, and I hope he sustains. If he keeps all of this and is still a DoT Mage, I will be happy. His W has little need to change imo, his E could be tweaked. His Q should/could be scrapped, but keep the Beatrice interaction. Maybe. He could use a new passive? I just want riot to ask the few Swain Mains out their what WE like about Swain and what we want to keep. Sure, if it's the fact he only has one ability you can dodge you can change that, but so is Lux's E undodgable if you don't have a mobility spell, and her E is larger with more damage and more range. If they posted a post about the community likes about Swain, I would love it. If the rework goes like Shen and Gangplank who I played and still do play quite a bit of, then I will jump for joy. In my opinion, the Shen and GP reworks were successful, and I hope Swains is too. I know his kit isn't the healthiest, nor the most balanced, but he's a pretty cool character.
