as much as i hate to admit it... vel koz is a bit op

not over the top freelo, but definitely needs some toning down against champions. (he is all skill shots after all, hes gotta earn it)

i pick him for the wave clear and poke, but im amazed by his reliable 100-0 for landing his knockup. especially in a 1v1 situation.

enemy builds a negatron cloak? vel koz dont care. and to me that says its his true damage which is just too high.

He's only OP when he hits you...

TBH altho his damage is a little high, his counter play is so easy: dive, get melee range, fuck him.

He's been pretty consistent for several patches actually, always hovering around 53% WR and never really going higher or lower. I attribute this to his range, he can pretty much carry the game from a screen away.

I think that some CD tweaking would suffice, I find laning against him really stressing because dodging one combo doesn't leave you with enough space to deal against him unless you are Talon or Zed.

Hes immobile, so you may as well try to ban Yasuo if you are going to play Vel'Koz. Also its the power of the tentacles. Velkoz xAhri xD Oh and by the way, its not negatron cloak, its %%%%%tron cloak. item 1057

Velkoz does seem quite strong, i feel like true damage on passive three marks ap scaling should be slightly reduced

Strength comes from not just his numbers, but how easy it is to consistently apply them to the enemy.

I don't believe that VELKOZ is op but if riot wants to nerf him, I suggest reducing the ap scaling of his passive true damage from 50% to 45% or 40%. 50% is almost the scaling of an offensive basic ability and it's just a passive. I'm a biased VELKOZ main.

Did you just say that the most balanced champion EVAR is OP? How dare you.

I'd say he might need a VERY slight nerf but there are other , far more overpowered champions that truly deserve gutting Nidalee
