Sylas

cursed entity··2 votes·1,691 views

So basically, it seems there is an issue up at headquarters @RiotGames. I have an issue with a few champions. Sylas is top on that list. He should not be able to press his W and heal more than the summoner spell 'heal'. Please Nerf that. As an ADC in solo Que, how am i supposed to outplay that? Tell me riot games. Tell me how i, an ADC, am to outplay that disgusting champion, while you go about thinking its well balanced and deserving to be in the game you so dearly call league of legends. Even when the ability is level one, the heal is still ridiculous. Now you're probably thinking, Vladimir works the same way, however his Q takes a little bit to charge up before he actually gets a semi-decent heal, whereas Sylas can point-and-click to heal. Next, you'll probably say "hey, young summoner, buy Grievous Wounds!" well riot games, i HAVE bought grievous wounds while going against a Sylas, regardless if he is ahead or behind, he still seems to out heal, 'outplay' and kill me as an ADC. It just does not seem like the grievous wounds are even doing anything, hardly tickling him, in fact. Sylas should not be able to dash onto me, just because he is low health, and press W and one shot me, even while i am ahead. Am i in the wrong for thinking this way, or is anyone else finding this problem to be a bit ape-like?

Sylas, for a "jack of all trades", is far too efficient in all regards.

Poke. Soft CC. Hard CC. Shield. Untargeted dash. Targeted dash. Heal. 5 different possible ults, all with varying degrees of CC, healing, etc.

I genuinely don't understand what Riot doesn't seem to get about "we don't need more champions with novels for their ability descriptions."

Not every ability needs two, three, four or five different effects to it.

His base ratios and AP ratios are WAY off for someone who can literally do it all.

item 3033 I mean, he has that heal because Mages abusing their items makes ap bruiser itemization impossible to pull off.

AP items themselves have ridiculous damage regardless what you build or not. Even pairing a item 3146 or a item 3065 make his healing even more over powered.

Too bad I have to build Protobelt to survive.

my bad, you pressing w and healing up to full hp doesn't help you survive, or pressing your DASH with a sheild (e) doesn't help you survive either.

Im pointing out the fact any Sylas who builds both of those has big balls for taking a massive hit to their own build for some "more" healing. Spirit makes up for the lack of any good MR item (Abyssal is dogshit due to Ryze and Cassio abusing it to the point it had to be nerfed to the ground)

Ap bruiser items are perfectly fine. :/ you get plenty of resistances, hp, ap and cdr.

Uh...what? Ap bruisers cant even survive for a second without their kit being overloaded. What good is GLP? Not good at all. RoA? Nerfed to shit cuz of mages. Abyssal? Mages again. Like, compared to a AD bruiser itemization, AP bruisers are missing a ton of items.

Oh really? Roa - still hyper efficient Banshee - ap mr Zhonya - ap armor Rylai - ap hp Liandries - ap hp Abyssal mask - damage amp hp resistance Glp - ap hp mana Protobelt - ap hp.

Not to mention most ad bruisers take 2 damage items then build tank items anyways. -.-

And how good are tank items anyway? Oh yeah, terrible considering the class that builds them are barely alive in one lane (support)

And bruisers are the best class in the game by miles and they build 2-3 tank items.

Really now? Pretty sure every bruiser and their mother are building full damage (Steraks is a defensive offense item, same with GA). If anything, bruisers are a weaker but durable version of the overlords of toplane in Fighters.

No point in building tank items if ya dead in 2 seconds, better off building damage items with defensive effects.
