There is so much wrong with this season already. [[Cassi, Morde, Liss, Adc's broken items + more]]

I just want to start by saying that I'm not trying to rant, but I have never seen such disrespect for a player base than what Riot does to its players.

Lets get started;

Champions:

Those who you left to die: Cassiopeia Is still being left to rot in a dumpster, with absolutely no compensation buffs mana wise. I don't play much cassi anymore, but when I did i enjoyed her, a lot. Now you've subjected your poor cassi mains to play a 45 minute minigame against themselves before they can even become viable in the game. I really really feel sorry for the faithful player base that has to put up with this utter garbage you call a rework. Mordekaiser There are plenty of threads on this already, but you turned a decent champ into something permabanned, and so unliked by the entire community that this poor guy is no longer considered to be himself just a hunk of metal. Which just to salt in the wound a little, you tried to take that away from him as well. Lissandra I love lissandra, but you killed her. She's punished so hard for having that passive its unbelievable. She gets one free spell every 18 seconds. 18 seconds. Most team fights you cant even get off two spell rotations because of her ludicrous cooldowns, let along it takes 85 mana AT ALL RANKS to cast her Q. She also saw no compensation buffs mana wise. Orianna Probably the most mana hungry champion in the game. Zero compensation for taking away her potions. Sona In desperate need of a QOL upgrade, her E is an absolute joke, next to no scaling on anything, a stupid mana cost for a tiny heal, zero cc aside from her ult, unless you mana to proc a passive + E which is rare. One of/ if not the only champions that relies entirely on actives from her items to do shit.

The champions that make you want to AFK. These guys will never see nerfs because of LC$ BIG PLAY$ Yasuo This incredible piece of garbage actually managed to make it out of the design room. Wonder why champions keep getting more and more ridiculous <-- this asshole is to blame. A medicore use of a windwall entirely negates a large champion selection, these new masteries are broken as fuck and should have never been pushed to live. Enjoy your freelo if you like to roll your face on the keyboard. Please stop saying 'Yasuoo takes skill' because he doesn't. Im sorry, he just doesnt. You can proc your ult on just about every ability now, including really dumb ones, like thresh's flay, or a vi q. LeeSin I have never ever, ever had a fun game playing against this asshole.

  • 350 base movement speed (you cant even get this with triple movespeed quints on some champions)
  • can q across your screen, a huge time in which the debuff stays on your champion
  • can jump to allies, to minions, to wards, to enemies
  • have to screw up SEVERAL times in order to die, some champions you miss a single ability -> dead.
  • HIS ULT STUNS.
  • % executes on a few abilities
  • even more buffs with jungle changes and a sight ward being built into jungler items.
  • incredible scaling. Thresh In dire need of some changes. I really dont have a huge problem with this aside from
  • his hook has a really LARGE hitbox, sometimes even completely missing hooks you.
  • lantern is the most frustrating ability in the game. as he can save champions from like 1500+ range.

What have you done to mages? Just starting this section by saying; I cannot find a mastery build that works decently on AP mages that works as effectively as that abomination you call warlords bloodlust.

  • needless cost increases on a lot of items
  • gold efficiency is down
  • decreased damage on items
  • increased MR on a lot of tanky items
  • decreased damage to squishies because of phantom dancer. -> the whole point is to kill them quickly, you're a god damn burst assassin. If they're out of place, punish them in 1 go. Heaven forbid they cant do 1k+ with a single auto attack.

New ADC reworks; a quick breakdown Graves utterly broken, an adc that can jungle quicker than those who were built to. KogMaw shitty early game, dont bother fighting late game. Corki easier to land rumble ult Quinn a roaming disaster Caitlyn enjoy being headshot + crit at 1450 range. MissFortune broken at all stages of the game.

Other champions that work insanely well with the new Item fuck ups:

item 3124 Warwick Kayle KogMaw

Oh, everything has crit. Good luck with your AP champions trying to heal with you have Wounds constantly applied, they're healing for 15% every 2 seconds because of the warlords bloodlust.


I have no had a single game where: Graves hasnt been in the game Yasuo hasnt stomped mid lane 3+ adcs per team

I agree, this patch sucks and the new Quinn of Chicken Wings does too.

Hmmm. That's odd. My first two ranked games, Played both as Olaf top, one against Darius and the next against Gnar, and I did extremly well. My keystone was Grasp of the Undying, and I focused Lifesteal, healing, movespeed, and damage on my melee champion. I ran AD reds, MR blues, Armor yellows, 1Ad quint, 1AS quint to help time AA cs, and a movespeed Quint as Olaf is slow. Early game I built Lifesteal AD and Resistances+Health, and movespeed so I don't get blown up and can get around. I maxed true damage and w mainly as I was afraid of using q too much because of the lack of mana potions(the biscuits where in my masteries tho, ;)) ) I did very well, and carried hard by playing safe early by focusing cs above all, poking slightly and poking harder when the enemy with true damage when the enemy got too close to me, and going all in when safe and at a good advantage in health. After I built a couple of health and LS AD items, me and the jungler took Rift Herald. Using a sustain champ up top allowed me keep minions buffed for longer, for obvious reasons like sustaining lane until TP is off of cooldown. TP nerf aside, the spell allowed the buff to stay on longer in lane woth the Rift Herald buff, and I did my best not to be too aggressive and die. I did not want to lose the buff, for the sake of keeping the minions buffed for subtle tower poke in lane, as I kept the short distance for faster farm and return.

This being said, I feel melee champions like Jax, Olaf, and Aatrox may be good top in the preseason.

As Olaf I wrecked my enemy AD laners, and adcs like Miss Fortune, as well as pushed objectives with my team mid and late game. Champions that I struggled with in other games were Irelia, who was tank, than Graves and Lucian; thier type of range was crazy amazing. Although I struggled hard, I'm glad that I see two champions who I used to very easily destroy when needed are more difficult to kill. I see that it os not impossible, but the harder challenge helps keep my mind sharp and focus on counterplay. I thought it was nice to see them buffed(I do not play Graves or Lucian veey often).

On another note Kassadin may be good for mid lane,as he got a mana compensation manal buff---and he has abilities that scale with your mana pool!! So technically it also buffs his early game damage.Add that to his tiny buff not long ago...I wonder how he is now, I can imagine he is stronger now. If you build a large mana pool, AP, and look for mana regen, I can just imagine he can be quite viable once again. He seemed so weak before this.

Couple things I find a lot more item 3070 than actually helpful contribution. Sorry to say your disclaimer does no justification.

  1. Sona is quite buff at the moment if you go 0-18-12 mastery wise. I've personally had 0 mana issues with her unless I've had to spam qweqweqweqweqwe. Her E is yes quite weak, but who cares if your heals and shield are 10% stronger on allies and 18% better on yourself??
  2. Quinn hits like a truck, but better solo laner than bot laner at the moment.
  3. LeeSin as being my highest mastery I can tell you even with this patch he is still easily countered. He is also easy to mess up on. Plus who cares if his ult is a "stun" don't forget Sejuani Amumu Galio (and many more) ults stun with significantly less mercy.
  4. Yasuo only appeared because Tanks were becoming a thing again. If he is really dominating games on you then you've had some bad luck running into some good ones.

I will agree fully though, Graves is way too buff. Then again old Graves was way too weak. I think players will find a good way to counter though. Caitlyn Seems to do the trick honestly.
