The Preseason did not make Marksman OP
If you take a look at the Marksman itemization changes, here's the basic idea of what happened to the big ADC items:
AD nerfed
AD nerfed, Crit added, able to have up to 30%CDR with another
item
On-hit damage nerfed
AS nerfed, Crit chance nerfed, takes 12% less damage from one enemy
AS nerfed, made a
upgrade, bolts can crit... but now deal only 25% of AD from 50%
AS nerfed, Crit buffed, damage scales with level and hits more targets
upgrade good for sieging
basically +15% damage against everything but other marksmen
made sustain champs a bit weaker
Effect only on bonus armor, not as good
Small AD nerf, 10% lifesteal (meant as counter to
)
Small AD nerf
Main changes are CDR in the place of AP, AS nerf, Crit buff, small AD nerf
No AS or Crit, item for caster marksmen with AD scaling and AD casters in general, delays 12% of damage over 3 seconds
These items still suck. They are not OP.
have been overtuned in their reworks.
is not OP.
may have benefited from the item changes but are strong only because of the new masteries.
Now let's look at our favorite health items.
have received buffs to their health. All the other health items are either already good, or were AD+health items.
had their MR bumped up to 70, approaching the MR of the Season 2 item Force of Nature (it made tanks unkillable).
has been nerfed, health has been buffed,
is trash now. Therefore, tanks are the OP class now.
