That's okay man, not like any of us want to learn about the new changes anyway.

I hate people

I haven't seen those bans yet. Every game so far has duplicated Yasuo bans though. Yasuo is now officially permabanned.

Funny because almost every game I've played today nobody banned yas.

I ban Kayle cuz screw Kayle.

I only see her like once every 500 games but when I do see her I swear she's faker in disguise and goes 40/0

i would only ban malz because he is pretty much as cancerous as he was before the mymu

Yeah, it's frustrating.

I only ban champs in normal draft that no one actually plays, because I figure norms are for practice. (Sorry, Aatrox Azir Urgot mains.)

Apparently this makes me weird, though.

... Apology accepted.

You can ban nothing in the new 10 vans system if you want. Keep that 1 aatrox main happy.

Because they will cause you to lose. They killed them like they killed Zyra

we go threw this every mini rework. and every single rework...everyone loses their shit...perma bans the champions just worked on because they think they are super broken. after a week or two everyone forgets and moves on Warwick Galio have spoken

I'm going to be honest, I think all three of them have come out of the mini reworks pretty strong. I haven't played Kindred myself though she looked pretty good in the 3-4 games I saw her in.

Malz is still bad though.

He has 3 abilities, the Voidlings are near useless.

AbrahamBaconhamJun 2, 20171 votes

The voidlings can clear an entire wave in a couple seconds, not to mention they chew through towers as well.

SweedishGunnerJun 2, 20171 votes

They also die to a single auto, die to any stiff AOE breeze and are slow as fuck.

AbrahamBaconhamJun 3, 20171 votes

And? Don't use them when your opponent can kill them easily, simple as that. They aren't an all-purpose tool like they used to be, they have counterplay now.

SweedishGunnerJun 3, 20171 votes

So don't use them in lane at all? The only time they're useful is when the enemy can't do anything (when you ult them). They're useless outside of that situation.

CelebrimborrJun 3, 20171 votes

If you put a voidling under tower it will instantly change targets to attack the voidling

I mean i ban malz when i msupport because fuck aids lol, but i agree with the statement. Banning shit reworked or new in ranked is one thing, but norms aremeant to be where you face that shit. either to learn it or learn to counter it :/

Lucian WaifuJun 2, 20171 votes

Malzahar is quite strong mid and can melt a max item ww who stacked mr because you are fed, just like the old malz.

AazzlanoJun 2, 20171 votes

God forsake someone wants to have fun playing the game.

cardomajig24Jun 2, 20171 votes

It's paranoia that they might lose. There's people that take norms way too seriously, as if it's gonna affect them in some adverse way so, "Oh no, they're reworked? IT'S BROKEN THERE'S NO OTHER EXPLANATION, NOBODY MUST PLAY THIS proceeds to foam at the mouth and act like a total sperg" Most of the playerbase is in bronze too, so it's no surprise they hardly think about if they're worth banning or not.

I've seen Maokai bans this patch too, despite the fact that they absolutely deleted the toxic AP-sapling tree build.

I still think he will be functional as a support, but not the "you can't even consider walking near any bush in the game" monster he was, and more as a tanky peel support like Braum.

He is a pretty strong jungler in my opinion. I would consider banning him if I wasn't playing him.

Baron of BreadJun 2, 20171 votes

Having played against a Kindred on the new patch, she feels really game warping. The new changes combined with all the changes that have been going on with her Hunt mechanics make her a pain to play against for some junglers.
