Can we give range to Rammus Taunt?

That thing seems fking impossible to use unless you catch someone offguard from a bush or something. Every champ in this game these days has a dash/blink in their kit and the ones that don't have multiple forms of cc that that for some reason is always AoE.

Either that or give the 3 second taunt back. Idk how you rammus mains play him. It's fun being tanky and all but you can't even get close to someone without a RG to catch up and even then it seems pretty hard since the range is so short

You're supposed to use the spin to get in range. I do agree they shouldn't have nerfed the taunt duration however.

Taunt to op. The reason for such a small range is that it's suppose to be combo'd with your q. Max speed q with mobi boots is still difficult to kite. Once their knocked up they are easy to taunt. Only thing I don't like is that his taunt doesn't cancel channels all the time. Like trist jump i'll get the taunt off she'll turn to me then jump away only to start walking back lol.

Be careful what you wish for there. Rammus actually, unless the enemy team knows where you are and ks very coordinated, usually gets to his target.

TBH, only thing that needs changing about his taunt is to fix that rare bug where ppl just walk away from you when they get taunted.

Rammus taunt range is actually 325. Compare that to Singed's Fling, which is 125. They're both tanky melees, but one gets 35-80 movespeed, and the other gets 20%-140%.

Your prob with reaching ppl to taunt them may be the same as my friend, who's a jungle main. He hates champs with no dashes/blinks because you can't just make a beeline toward your target to gank.

Champs with no dashes/blinks need to take the time to walk all the way behind their target so that the target has to run around you instead of away from you.

Alternatively, you can stay in a bush after pressing Q in order to build up that movespeed before going in.
