Sivir Stahp! (Spell Shield Discussion)

iLuma··2 votes·410 views

I get so upset that Sivir can shield almost anything. I wasn't too familiar with her for a while, so I thought it was basic mana based attack, but she can even stop ults! Caitlin Snipe, Malzahar Ult, Cho'Goth Nom.

Do you guys think the Spell Shield should be nerfed, as least for Ultimate Abilities sake, or do you think it's perfectly fine the way it is?

I like her ult for Passive effect better. I mean, Spell Shield should stop enemy abilities, I just don't think it should stop ultimate attacks. At least imo.

Or at least make it more like Morgana's shield, y'know? Personal opinion. But I see where you're coming from ~

If anything at least make it reduce ult damage by 40%

Yeah, see I'm okay with that. That seems like a more viable option. But whenever it stops ults completely. Like, I was using Malzahar the other day in a team fight. I went to ult Sivir and it was hard enough landing an ult when they have so many CC interrupts from their team comp Sejuani Chogath Ahri Leona . But that small chance that I actually caught her out of position, she spell shields my Ult! I mean, we still won the game and the fight. I was really upset about that. :( Because she proceeded to kill two of my teammates, which ended up pushing the game out 10 more minutes because of how late the game was already and those death timers.

Lol that's funny. But you should've baited her spell shield. People forget that these days. Easy counter to champs, bait out their moves.

That whole team fight, I thought she had already used it! Haha. That was me being a nub. But still!

No, it's only blocks a single move and has to be timed within a 1.5 second window, it's also on a relatively lengthy cooldown and can be easily baited out by other spells. I think it's balanced considering the overall strength of her kit.
