The Fate of Bard (10.5)

I'm actually scared... This is the first direct nerf bard has gotten. The last buff he got was to his early E, which was an actual nerf to his late game. It's a tougher call than ppl realize because he's totally stomping above plat atm, but he really isn't all that in lower elo.

Ppl usually get mad if u roam in the lower levels and objective control is God awful, so u have to stomp lane. And while this is do-able, it's dramatically easier to do with just about anyone else.

So lets talk about this because the rfc into deadmans is an extremely expensive item set compared to what other supports build as is... let's genuinely discuss this. What do y'all think of the upcoming Bard nerfs? Because I'm convinced our celestial friend will be okay for higher levels, but completely gutted from low ones.

His R losing his team fights when miscast already makes him less then desirable low elo anyhow.

Im not sure why they are nerfing one of the most skill expressive and interesting supports in the game.

And thats enough reason to nerf

rfc into deadmans is an extremely expensive item set

No actual ranged support should be ok with building a fucking crit item followed by a tank/juggernaut item. I just want some compensation for actual support Bards, like better AP scaling on his heal and Q.
