Also read the edited post, this isnt a QQ thread about Ziggs this is just about Riot's statement on non-marksman champions being played bot, and they might try to do a morde 2.0 in the future again and it might not end well again.

For the love of god please do not try shoe-horning another melle champion into the bot lane. they have to have ranged or they will be demolished. Now if someoen tries to argue but what about thresh/nautilus/blitzcrank pulls, it's unhealthy to have a champions only way to be good in a lane is based upon the skill level of the other person.

Edit: Since everyone is thinking im talking about Ziggs bot, i'm not. I'm talking about how they tried shoe-horning morderkaiser bot lane and it was a colossal failure, also in my entire original post I never mentioned ziggs, im referencing to the part of the post where they are talking about non-marksman champs being played bot and I dont want them to try doing that with a melle champ again, cause it clearly didnt work out last time. taking a solo lane champion that has been that way for four years and trying to completely change his identity wont work out well with the fan base of said champ.

I have to agree with OP:

Yasuo Mordekaiser

The cancer caused because of this with Yas being stupid op and Morde being nefed to oblivion proves it right.

I'm not sure how you read that and understood it to mean they were going to try to force a melee champion to go bot.

They said "if the gameplay created is healthy" if it's horrible to play as and against then it won't last long

well look at morde, he was forced bot took them forever to get allow his w be castable on minions again, now that they removed rylai's they said morde would get some kind of changes and it will probably be awhile, even now morde has like 80+ bugs.

yeah. poor morde. i still kind of like morde+mao dual bond of stone double relic shield knight's vow rush bot lane

but morde needs justice

the thing is hes all skill shots and easily punished for playing too aggressive, ziggs bot is fine, you just need to get back at him instead of giving him all this free harassment. he has cooldowns, you dont.

i never mentioned ziggs in my original post, I was using their post about non-marksman bot, basically saying they shouldnt try putting a melle champion down their it failed miserably last time.

Ziggs is about as far from a melee champion as you can get and I think most people, Riot included, are attributing his use in bot lane to his many non-melee qualities.

but there's literally no reason to think they'd try that again.

its riot, look how many separate que's they want through before they finally waved the white flag and brought back solo que, their was draft, dynamic then flex and it is now back, point being riot normally doesnt learn and will try to do things more than once before it actually gets resolved.
