Veigar Nerfs
Hello.
I would like to talk about the changes done to Veigar in Patch 5.4 and how it is a bad decision by Riot. So first off, why Veigar? I haven't watched too many matches on the LCS recently but I did watch one which Veigar was banned and his ban and pick rate were really low, so why all of the sudden focus on him?
I mean, what was th problem? That he can 100-0 another AP champ? So can many other champs. I mean Zed has been a pick in the LCS since he came out and he can also 100-0 someone without the need of even a stun like Veigar. I understand sometimes he doesn't even need the stun, but lowered Zed's attack speed? Thats it? I don't think that you were even trying to nerf him.
Now his stun. Again I still don't know why you would target Veigar as he has literally been this way since he came out. I really hope it's not because some kids started getting angry at him killing them. I understand you gotta make people happy, but there is a line. With this .75 second delay the stun has turned into a safe zone, or a containment zone. Either you stay inside safe, or you let the team know they will be contained in your stun.
Now, even after it is used, if any of them has a jump/blink, let's say like...Talon for example, which because of the nerf to Veigar , Talon dominates him even harder than before. Like literally no sweat. He can just jump out, kill you in like 4 seconds and that's it. You can stay back, yes, but after his stun is used he doesnt have anything else. You see, he only has one cc and to me, now it's not even a cc, its just a field that people will not touch.
Riot, you should really target other champs. If you do wanna promote healthy gameplay, what would have been healthy for my enemy team is to switch his mid and top, knowing that I'm a Veigar. If they don't do it, it's not my problem. Why rage about it when you know what you were up against?
I just really think that Veigar was a strong champion that he could 1v1 most AP champs, and have a hard time with almost all melee champs and now, I feel like I am playing the weakest character in the game. Final Boss Veigar? Nah dude...you are now a Training Mode Boss.
ult but without the damage and with a long delay. They'll just stand there laughing at you and still be able to avoid his main poke which is now an easy to avoid skill shot.
It seems like they wanted to turn him into an ap version of
, where he just farms all game (with a two hitter Q), and then blows them up later on, but he has none of the survivability of
