So a passive that let's your build items in lane along with a debuff that extends the duration of CC? This is literally the opposite of what League needed, can't wait to ban :)

Same thing was said about Bard creating tunnels through any walls, Kayn walking outside the map, Ivern auto farming and sharing buffs, and Ekko going back in time. Now it's normal.

I wouldn't use Ivern in your example.

He hasn't even been released yet, so chill.

The passive thing is kinda crazy tho. Just think about it like this. If he can create his own items without basing. This means he can create his own potions I'm guessing so he never has to recall ever, he can just go back to his turret, and then craft a potion to restore his health back up.

Not gonna call it broken like all the other people who I assume are low elo, but doesn't matter lol, but you gotta admit, this passive is strong, but not broken.

theyve said he cant create potions and using the passive costs gold to buy items so there are tradeoffs. These OPs complaining dont read whats been released and just form ubsubstantiated opinions.

WinBoatAug 7, 20171 votes

Oh, I haven't seen where they said anything about being unable to create potions.

Well if he can't do that, then I'd say the passive is balanced in that case, definitely not broken tho he's always have an item advantage in lane. In the LCS, he will probably just be a farmer and do like literally no combat in lane and just forge items to have that advantage and wait for the gank lol...

It's going to be interesting, can't wait to see the gameplay on PBE tomorrow. I wonder how good he is going to be as like a bruiser build? I don't see him doing much damage at all as a tank, and that's what he's supposed to be.

Where did you see his item list at?

WinBoatAug 7, 20171 votes

It said he can forge items. It said in the video he can shop anywhere he wants (as long as he is out of combat). This means, he can pretty much buy everything he wants (other than the potions) you guys told me.

However as for upgrading teammates items and stuff, I do not know how that is going to work. I think they still need to go back to base to get the item he helped funded and crafted for them. (I don't know if he can craft them any item component or if riot is introducing exclusive new craftable items to upgrade).

We will find out tomorrow what he does on the PBE. Everything is speculation, but I'm almost 100% sure he can craft all his armor and weapons without being in base. So if you want to build a black cleaver? You can build that. A thornmail? You can forge that.

Yup. Doesn't mean he gets to heal and mana regain to full though, so he'll still have to back if he gets low.

Balance team and champion team are separate.

One of the more promising champs in a while and there is people claiming for nerfs haha

We need more champs like this countering all the massive mobility outhere...

ZephyrDrakeAug 7, 20171 votes

so... a champion that hasn't even been released yet and you have no idea how strong he will actually be is proof that the balance team doesn't exist... are you kidding me? can you at least wait for the champion to be released before crying "unbalanced! broken! nerf plox!"
