Dear Riot, about the PBE changes...

For the most part I'm all for them, good buffs for volibear, making some champions less op in the hands of the normies. Good changes all around for toplane.

But I have a few qualms about some things.

Firstly, why are you nerfing ornn's W cooldown so hard. As far as I can tell this absolutely kills all early pressure he could have had in lane, even with the shield as most champs can just bust through it anyway. It seems extremely unnecessary to hit this in this way, especially since it doesn't block cc anymore.

Second, did you consider any buffs for urgot seeing as how Frozen mallet is one of his core items, and reducing its slow for him will likely devastate his midgame playability.

Otherwise, I'd say good job. It's about time toplane got some love.

Isn't Ornn very dominant in lane? I think it's probably fair to nerf the cooldown on W. The brittle duration is probably the real nerf, though, since he can't zone as effectively. Personally I wish they brought back CC immunity if they go through with these nerfs. With higher CD, the mechanic should be fairer.
