Is it just me? Or do Riot's indirect nerfs, do more nerf champs much more than thier Targeted nerfs

i mean we get -0.4 base regen Kassadin nerf -5 ms Irelia nerf and in season 6.. the "direct" nerf to Nidalee which added one second her kitty cooldowns (which to this day is STILL more of an annoyance than an actual nerf)

NONE of these did jack shit.

yet we see indirect nerfs that damn near completely gut champions

while the item 1039 change was a godsend to every other mana using jungler... because of Ivern support jungle idea and his synergy with item 3174 he got damn near gutted

in season 6 the patch AFTER the "placebo" nerf to Nidalee she loses 9% winrate from a double indirect nerf removing strength of the ages and gutting item 3116

during the scuttle changce pretty much any jungler who couldnt duel at lvl 2 was very badly hurt and every other was was made much stronger

now with the removal of adaptive stats on celerity champions like Hecarim Nidalee are bady hurt from a nerf designed to stop ADC's from taking the rune

and then their "bugfix" for Yorick hit him more than any nerf ever did.

its like the only way they can ACTUALLY nerf a champion is by accident and only when they don't need it.

when a champion actually NEEDS a nerf.. they are barely touched
