Jayce, MF, Wu Kong, Talon, Rengar, Kha, Riven, Draven, Zed, Graves, Caitlyn ( after those annoying youtubers posted videos about cait + lethality ), I even saw several Lee's who were buying lethality after warrior enchant... To be fair, the list goes on. In this current state, lethality is more Op than sated devourer was, because sated was on 1 person only, also he had to non-stop farm jungle... Now lethality is breaking champions starting 7 to 10 mins in the game. I was in a game vs MG, Wu, Graves , they all 3 had pure lethality, we had 2 tanks, i was healer, and zed mid - We barely managed to deal with one of them , zed jumps on MF, she presses Q and he is 50% hp... Sorry but this thing is poison to the game.

As a support main i find NO WAYs of dealing with such champs who abuse it. I hate the game in its current state and all those people who are deffending lethality are probably the same people who abuse it. No wonder Riot is planning 10 bans. So many champs who need to be banned, not even because of lethality, the state of the game is just way to imbalanced in my opinion, it's all about damage, damage, damage... No strategy, no nothing. Why are gamers so obsessed with damage and high numebrs, are they really that lacking in real life ? Sorry i got a bit off track here, but the game is not enjoyable currently.

I played in a game where 8 players were running lethality builds. It's stupid.

I am sorry, but if making a balancing post about something broken at least:

say what is so broken (For example: It is too strong/to weak)
say what makes you say it's broken.(for example: I got one shot by a caith as full-tank rammus while having a full armor build)
propose something of a fix(optional)

Broken means strong or overpowered. You should know this, being on Gameplay.
The buffs made it broken. No-brainer here. Assassins abuse lethality and so do bruisers.
Obviously a nerf? Potentially back to what it used to be so it's not so broken?

I thought it was sort of obvious. Have you not had an experience where you've been one-shot by a Talon, Shaco, Riven, Jayce, Kha, Rengar, or Jarvan building full lethality yet this patch?

If so, count yourself lucky.

1:I consider broken as not working. urgot, for example, is broken in my opinion because he doesn't work in the current state of the game. Same goes for aatrox. Neither are op, both are broken 2:

this is exactly the kind of example I mean, you explain what is broken pretty well.

3: what kind of nerf. Weaker late?, weaker early?, maybe stronger late, weaker early? You aren't being specific here. You can't simply go back to last patch where it was considered weak by the vast majority of higher elo players.

and yes, I did play against jayce, it is frustrating and the new lethality might be too strong. I even agree with your opinion on this. I also didn't mean to insult you with this reply, but making a boardpost this underdeveloped just comes over as complaining without wanting resolution.

Just because you choose to consider something broken differently from everyone else does not mean I should assume it's broken the easy you do.

I think that's exactly what we should do. Do back a patch on its damagebecause it bits way too damn hard. If it's good enough to give Shaco a mid-game; then something is wrong.

Don't assume what everyone else considers. The actual use of broken varies widely by individual and you as the thread creator should want to have a topic which can be understood by everyone and where valuable feedback and ideas can be exchanged. Unfortunately, you did none of those things.

Lethality was underperforming before and is overperforming now on a couple of champions. Reversing it to it's prior state isn't an ideal option. We can either push it slightly down to let's say 50% base instead of 60% or we can nerf a few of the champions abusing it like Jayce is seeing.

It seems fine to me.

Yet here you are stacking the hell out of it left and right.

Hmm? I've always ran lethality on Rengar from release. I tried it on Draven, but it's not better than his BF build tbh. Jhin is arguable, I prefer essence reaver over the leth build. I wanted to see if Lucian was viable with it since its got it's buff, but he's still slightly weak.

As for Riven, muh main gurl, I only ever get 2 leth items since most games I'm vs tanks anyways. Even before buffs Youmuus was a sometimey buy. I don't see your point.

Lethality is getting out of hand for sure...literally being abused by every single ad champ in the game right now. I've seen enough of this sht meta :P
