Rioter 2: Hmm, i don't think that will be enough how about we Kog'Maw 100 Range on his ulti too Rioter 1: Sounds a little too OP, we don't wanna gut Kai'sa right now. Rioter 2: Hmm how about we give Kog'maw +100 on rank 1 +50 on rank 2 and leave rank 3 unchanged Rioter 1: Brilliant ship it
Actual quote from a rioter >Let me rephrase the statement which was from the post where I was talking about why we hadn't nerfed some of the high presence champs in pro play on 8.19. Hope this is clearer for you.
> On 8.15/8.16 Kai'sa had high presence in pro play (76%), but had more picks than bans. On 8.18 we nerfed her. On 8.19 we opted to not nerf her again due to the fact we'd already nerfed her since the last pro play we'd seen. On 8.19 we instead buffed some champs that are considered decent against her as a low range marksman (Pyke, Thresh,** Kog'maw**), while nerfing some that gave her a lot of protection (Braum/Tahm Kench).
What is this?
