Is something going to be done about alistar leona and thresh?

They are dominating bot lane atm.

Leona for example can still almost 100-0 an adc while keeping it locked down just by herself.

So? Healers were op for almost 6 months.. Let the tanky supports have their moment.

This is such a hazardous mentality to have. Other champions being overpowered in the past is no excuse for another class to continue dominating without nerfs. Playing non tank supports is pretty volatile atm due to all the base stat and rune changes

First thing to get the axe will probably be aftershock

let me answer to op by answering to this post

Thresh is not broken, his win rate and pick rate didn't move by a single inche and remains at 49% and 20% Alistar's win rate was always around 51% even during censer meta, simple champions always have a higher win rate than non-simple one, and it's the same with blitzcrank

So i'm sorry but no, afterchock won't be nerfed it is by far not a decisive factor on why alistar is strong Alistar needs nothing Thresh needs nothing Leona is an issue on her own

Now you may look at: Janna 52% win rate Nami 52% win rate Lulu 51% win rate in plat and 53% win rate in diamond

i guess enchanters need a nerf too? No

No it is not. Enchanters are super toxic and have no counterplay. Atleast you can play around thresh, leona and ali.

Leona is just unbelievable atm, I don't play bot lane but I got it yesterday and I was against a Leona who literally soloed me in a single combo and I was just sitting there with my jaw dropped like wtf...

Thresh is not broken, just overloaded, typical CertainlyT stuff.

Alistar is fine imo, he is only ever broken in competitive play.

Still, I would much rather play an interactive lane with tank supports than a borefest with healers, especially Sona, Janna and Soraka, I mean thats literally a ResidentSleeper lane all the way through...

to be honest, I don't see the problem in leona winning against the ADC early game considering ADC's are late game monsters and so should by all rights be piss weak early game

^ Leona has been doing this since idk i play this game? Old taric, leona even thresh all pretty much solo'd the ADC at one point or the other.

Sej is garbo tho

Rest is correct

KlydeFrogDec 24, 20172 votes

umm guess what they could do that before the new runes sooooo whats your complaint?

kaironenDec 24, 20171 votes

I feel like the tank supports are meta because of the no magic resist runes and aftershock being really good on them.

NayzumiDec 24, 20171 votes

Leona got a q and w nerf, in which her w lost 20 DAMAGE LEVEL 1. The only reason she is strong is because of aftershock, but Riot isn't going to nerf the entire keystone because 1 champion utilizes it so well. As for Thresh, if you're getting hit by his hooks, you're the issue, and for Alistar, he is REALLY hard to master his combos. You have to have 50 ping or less to even W Q perfectly, because otherwise he'll just push them away without knocking them up.

If you wanna nerf aftershock, first nerf the poke in this game

people going on about the engage supports but not taric that got a heal increase to himself since the resolve healing increase counts to self healing as well now, and his armor scaling with aftershock. this isn't even from me playing against him as blitz either (which was rather a relief since it wasn't me playing taric this time even though he counters blitz)
