What do you plan on doing to the meme that is Lethality?
I just heard that Riot are looking at Lethality changes... but what exactly is planned? I also have a couple of ideas to fix the stat:
-
Make Lethality scale off of your own level, not your opponent's level. This will allow an assassin to build an advantage. Lethality scaling off of the target's level keeps an assassin from actually making a lead meaningful. Given how snowbally games are, this will help an AD assassin build a lead. Also, can Youmuu get 30 or 35 Lethality instead of 20? Youmuu is completely trash right now and got completely gutted.
-
Just say fuck it and revert it back to flat armor pen. This will also allow ADCs to get a mid game powerspike and HOPEFULLY stop some of the bitching on Reddit about the ADC role.
-
Make Lethality max out earlier instead of Level 18.
The game is extremely early-mid game oriented and Lethality has been tuned as a LATE GAME stat. It also does not allow an assassin to put his team ahead. The game is about snowballing more than ever, and AD assassins are just completely incapable of doing it because Lethality is an anti-snowball mechanic. Assassins are ALL ABOUT SNOWBALLING.
