Electrocute Balance

Just had a game on my other account in low elo (silver 2).

I was level 14 as Jayce, items were Youmuus, Duskblade, Mobi Tabs, Black Cleaver, and Cloth Armor with Aery/Inspiration runes.

vs.

A lvl 11 Zed, that had Maw, Mercury Treads, and Duskblade with Electrocute rune.

Legit went in to fight the Zed, he qs me, then ults, e, w away one more q and i die. Like what the actual hell are you doing to this game Riot. In what amount of counterplay is there to that? Zed goes inside me, I cant attack him. Zed comes out, es, then just like that presses W and is back to safety. He is 3 levels below me ffs! Not to mention I have a whole Item on him and then some.

Get this electrocute out of here and just fix the damage already. Nobody likes this meta, literally everyone above Silver 3 that doesnt play assassins hate everything about the game right now. Everyone on boards have been complaining about this meta since it started. Have you ever seen this many complaints? Because i surely havent, and yet Riot still has done nothing! Not a single thing addressed about the damage. We went from Tanks one shotting, to Adcs one shotting, to Assassins one shotting, to everyone one shotting. Fire you whole Riot team, beens none of them want to listen to their player. What happens when devs dont listens to the player base? The game dies. Which means League dies, all Rioters are out of a job, and no more LCS.

Fix this garbage already. Revert to Season 7 at least, back when there was some skill rather than running around looking for the first person to one shot despite their level/items.

I touched on it on another post, but we're doing some short term work to siphon out some damage from runes. One of the directions we're currently testing with Electrocute is decreasing both the damage and the cd (get the proc more frequently, but with reduced payout). We're not going quite to TL levels, but that's a rough model we're shooting for.

Just going to go ahead and drop the current list in here for you guys to discuss. This will also be on the PBE tomorrow.

Electrocute Damage :: 50-220 (+50%bAD)(+30%AP) >>> 30-180 (+40%bAD)(+25%AP) Cooldown :: 50-25 >>> 25-20

Cheap Shot Damage :: 15-40 >>> 8-40

Sudden Impact Lethality Bonus :: 10 >>> 7 Magic Penetration Bonus :: 8 >>> 6

Celerity Bonus Movement Speed converted to Attack Damage :: 9.6% >>> 6% Bonus Movement Speed converted to Ability Power :: 16% >>> 10%

Scorch Damage :: 20-60 >>> 10-30 Cooldown :: 20 >>> 10

Notably, there's some runes like Aery and Comet not included in this list which are cited pretty frequently, they likely also need more work in terms of gameplay that isn't just simply some number shifts (we're still talking about them though)

Half the cooldown off Electrocute early.
