@Riot -- "Ok" nerfs for Fiora
My nerf-senses are tingling, the hammer aproaches.
I don't want her to become God-tier 1-2 weeks to be nerfed into uselessness after.
Fiora is supposed a great duelist, and her kit reflects that. Thing is, the champion is the Grand Duelist, after a few plays, so is the player -- And I rather that, through mastery, one would become a great duelist, not because of the champion, but because of the experience the player has with Fiora.
So I wouldn't mind nerfs to her W. Making it into a "harder to use" skill would accentuate that Fiora takes quick reflexes and a master(duelist!) behind. Good Fioras will still be the same though, not the "I CAN 1V1 ANYONE IN YOUR TEAM" rather, a Fiora that can pop a good ultimate.
I've been seing her more in rankeds, both in picks and bans. I don't want to be labelled as someone who plays a noob champion, or meta champion. I play her a lot now, and not because she's strong -- no, I couldn't care less -- I liked her kit before I played it, it reminded me of some other game I used to enjoy...
Riposte nerfs I don't mind, hopefully keeping the masses (picks and bans) away,
- Decreasing the Parry "window" from 0.75 to 0.5 will make it harder to land and encourage mastery.
- Removing the damage.
- Decrease the range it has. It blocks stuff regardless, just doesn't return the CC back to the enemy if you aren't close enought.
Also, I'm K with removing her ultimate movement speed buff. Unloading her potential a bit. Please scrubs, drop Fiora.
People have to be oportunistic in using her ultimate.
