New Ultra Rapid Fire (NURF) is just a big fat nerf nuke

Seriously that's all it is.

Read what it says here, http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/gameplay/unveiling-future-league-legends

It basically just nerfs every champion in the game. And although I know they did it on purpose, it's a crappy reverse of the URF mode we enjoyed.

Here's what it does.

+100% mana and energy cost on all abilities +200% cooldown inflation on abilities, items and summoner spells +225 movement speed reduction +200% delay between basic attacks Critical strikes deal 50% of base AD Units critically strike on 150% of attacks

+100% mana and energy cost on all abilities This means that you will almost never have mana as you will likely blow it all in one combo then struggle as every time you get enough mana to use your cheapest ability you will need to use it right then and there, thus having no mana again.

+200% cooldown inflation on abilities, items and summoner spells This means that all ults that took around 90 seconds to cooldown will now take 180 seconds. Effectively renduring ults into a once in a while thing where if you happen to miss when using it, (Leona , Ashe , Jinx , Ezreal , and good god poor Pantheon !) Then you will be smacking yourself in the forehead for wasting your ult and having to wait for ages to use it again. You will now only be able to use your ult maybe 20 (thirty maybe for the fast cooldown ults) times in a single hour long match.

+225 movement speed reduction You thought Leona without boots was slow before? Now she will only make it back to lane after five minutes of walking ever so slowly from the shop. Everyone now effectively has between 100 and 150 movement speed from the start of game. If you don't get boots, plus four movement speed percentage items, You will never come close to passing 250 movement speed, which is still slow as crap.

+200% delay between basic attacks For those of you who don't know what that means, it means that you now attack at half the speed you used to.

Critical strikes deal 50% of base AD Yup! Criticals now deal less damage then your normal auto attack! Better get that item 3031 so your crits deal normal attack damage! Oh wait.....since crits now only deal as much damage your your auto attack with Infinity edge, you might as well just stick with your auto attacks.

Units critically strike on 150% of attacks Yay! Minions can now crit you every attack and deal extra damage! Minions really are now OP.

Well I guess the one good thing you can take from this is that they finally nerfed Irelia lol

As for me, I'm going to build item 3068 item 3143 item 3512 item 3026 item 3102 item 3065 and see how well I do against all the nerfed champions.

I like this mode. I think it's going to be more fun to watch than it is to play, however.

IF this is what hits live AA champs, so adc's, win the game. Let me stress that this may in fact be a april fools joke disguising the actual mode.
