(Keep in mind I did take note of Lux's insanely high pick rate and winrate before, but if you read the changes the nerfs are NOT appropriate. WHY NOT JUST NERF AFTERSHOCK AND MAKE REASONABLE NERFS... aatrox, akali and sylas flashbacks)
She's getting nerfed as a support but compensated for her midlane. Her ult gets extra 15% AP scaling and her ult CD is 40 seconds level 3.
She's strong enough to not even require compensations, at least her ult is getting buffed.
Why would Riot nerf a keystone because of a single champion who isn't even supposed to use it beating everything in the meta? The renekton changes are way too over the top, granted, but nerfing a champion who's been way overtune for way too long instead of nerfing the keystone she uses is quite logical...
Even before the aftershock cheese meta thats been going on for her, she was sitting at an almost perfectly constant 52%+ winrate while still being one of the most popular supports. Nerfing aftershock would just bring her back to a less busted state while still needing nerfs, resulting in a wave of nerf hammering hitting way too much instead of simply hitting the problem at the source like they are trying to.
Idk what riot is smoking either, but yes Lux needed nerfs. I do agree renekton doesn't need buffs though.
