So here's the dil-do. LB b4 the patch had a 53 percent win rate avg (seems normal compared to other 1st tier champs) and has now dropped to the low 42 percent WIN RATE....
I'm a mid main and it has always been a mids job to handle their lane by adapting to a certain team comp with; runes, masteries, and items in accordance to the opposing laner/team. Is it really that hard to Build a ROA or Abyssal Scepter? Shoot just use the right runes to help play against her, I mean extra health or magic resist has never hurt anyone! I main LB and many other mids and play all the champs very well. If I got matched against LB I rarely lost because I have GAME KNOWLEDGE which is what a lot of you people are lacking it seems. There are so many tools in this game that are used to counter certain situations. And this is just another one of those situations you need to be able to adapt too.
For example - I bet there are people still whining about ZED. Guess what, Armor, and HOURGLASS, shoot even ROA. This is has to be another topic - but I find it silly adc's SCIMITAR got nerfed which no longer removes ZEDS ult pop (like wtf is the reasoning behind that)!?! But with that nerve PLUS that new
made him a terror lmao. But guess what I don't whine about it I play accordingly and just make sure to position better and be aware of what I have in my arsenal (whether my flash is on cool down or not), plus you got a support or teammates who are supposed to help you, aside from that your still screwed against zed... (___________Take away hourglass if your going to do that crap RIOT lol.__________)
ANYWAYS (BACK TO TOPIC)
LB has been ruined as a mid assassin champion, if you guys were to do anything BUFF her q, and e, and let her passive mark her opponents instantaneously like the old LB but keep the 4-5 second delay on her mark to reset on the same champion. (shoot if she Q's, and E's someone successfully give her her silence back if she successfully lands the q chain combo.) She is a high risk high reward champion who requires a hell a lot of game knowledge. Mid to late game she still falls off why not help her late game by adding simple buffs to her passive Q,E and R buff damage outputs. (honestly chain silence and no passive Delay probably would rebalance her, her w can probably be left the same and you could probably do increased magic pen damage with her R using your Q, MIMIC Q COMBO and add maybe add an EXTRA mark like her passive) It would require some tinkering of course but that's a start. ( I swear someone's gonna say that's op, I just want you to look at Annie at level 6 or Syndra, or Lux, Talon, Zed, Riven and tell me that they cant 1 shot you with a successful skill combo)
Anyways since the 7.5 nerf the current LB now if you try to clear a creep wave you eat SH!T from the opposing mid lane making that W useless most the time unless that mid is not there or just retarded. On top of that by the time you make it to mid to late game she is getting blown up by the other team cause your waiting for that passive mark to activate. She is no longer an assassin with her kit, I still play her but now a champ that was known for early game bully is now bullied ALL GAME. Which makes your champion impact the game very little, unless you in bronze/silver/or low GOLD elk since all these players are down right ignorant to game play along with meta.
The only times I see her doing well now is if I am kiting using double chain for my ADC, or going ballsy and trying to catch someone out with chain. Which when I do that RIP cause you bout to eat a face full of damage and most likely die since you have no follow up damage with your kit.. Unless you managed to get fed.. but come on, we aint trying to ruin this champ and have it fall off like the old
...
Let me know what the community thinks. I have been playing this game consistently since season 2 when I have a chance of course (Junior in college, I do Sports at my university, and work), this is my OPINION, and am also trying to connect with the community since I put to much time and money into this game like everyone else ha.
Feel free to add me!
champion pulling a similar retarded shenanigan with his R literally all the time as soon as he hits R to EZ escape from practically any situation and get away with doing alot of damage to a enemy team in the process too?
cough). Which at that point i'd rather enjoy it if the jungler, even if its my team's jungler, end up eating punishment for retardedly early game jungle ganking by the enemy laner countering them with a well placed CC ability or defensive measure to shut them down on dealing any damage and usually end up with them dying in the process.
