Please nerf Aurelion Sol's POWER, not his UTILITY

Arakk01··2 votes·364 views

There are changes for AurelionSol on the PBE right now that will totally gut the champion as anything but a slightly different version of Azir- no joke. Half a second off of his stun and two seconds removed from the duration of his ult's slow- can we say shoehorning? These changes prevent him from being played anywhere but mid, where he was simply 'viable' as a support before. Nerf his AP ratios, the growth rate of his Q, or the CD SCALING on his E (higher CD on max rank). These are all things that give mid/top/jg Aurelion his raw power...

Though all in all, it's pretty sucky of you to nerf a champion with a sub-50 winrate, with very meaningful weaknesses throughout the game. He's fun to play and easy enough to play AGAINST, and if anything he deserves a (small) buff to his ult CD to help an Aurelion who is ahead (AKA carrying his team) keep those pesky assassins off of his back. Because nothing ruins the power fantasy quite like the 0/46/0 Talon killing you just because he sits on your face while your ult is down.

I like how people over exaggerate minute changes.

I like how people over exaggerate minute changes.

This is really, REALLY not a minute change. This destroys his playmaking potential, especially at earlier ranks, while leaving him in a potentially unhealthy place for damage as long as his team has his back on CC. They're starting to frontload onto his W, sort of like Azir- I, for one, don't want that. If I want to stand back and occasionally do something cool but mostly just pump out damage while my team fights and CCs things, I WILL PLAY AZIR.

Last time champions got "gutted", we got the juggernaut patch.

His utility is fine and he only seems to be really strong if he gets fed..but if they have to nerf something, i'd rather it be damage over utility
