Anyone else miss old Kog?

I do - especially for mid. How was he not unique and niche enough before? I want to aim ults. not press W and spam a million autos. I just shed a few tears watching Kog grow up into this. I don't recognize him anymore. It's like he was in some secret military experiment and now has an anger management issue. No sane thing wants to attack that fast.

My friend used to main AP Kog'Maw and was sad when they reworked him. I personally used to main ADC and Kog was my 2nd go to champ after Jinx. I personally think he was stronger before that he is now at all parts of the game. Old Kog out scaled Vayne in terms of how fast he could kill anyone. Q.Q

But... But... I like attacking every .2 seconds...

Besides, you're focusing too much on one skill change. Don't play him any different and you'll still be aimin' those ults.

For me, he hasn't really changed, just that everyone is playing him as an ADC now instead of a sniper AP/AD as I'm used to, because of the new change. Wait a while and it'll feel the same again.

But auto attack move sucks now because you deal 55% damage, so what you have to do in a fight is sit still and auto or just lower your dps by moving. Old Kog'Maw did a lot of burst and sustained damage, melted tanks, and could play as a poke kind of champion. In my opinion the extra cd you get on w when activated isn't useful at all when using spells lowers your dps. Basically all of us that miss the old Kog'Maw miss being able to use the kit effectively, having options (besides auto attacking), and aren't intrigued by and adc that just auto attacks.
