Not if they have flash/dashes and are spread around the Nexus.

It just sounds like a Glyph of Fortification from DotA but on a small scale. I could live with it. Ratting is indeed obnoxious. Just look at last year's Lycan and Nature's Prophet on DotA2 tournaments - everyone on their team would be playing a team game, and those two were playing Rat Doto. Then some changes happened (a good Lycan nerf being one of them, as well as an instant refresh on glyph cooldown when a tier 1 tower goes down) and suddenly ratting isn't anywhere near as strong anymore.

Trolls are going to troll regardless of what champ they play, if you have a troll on your team you're probably not going to win anyways.

Yes Please. I thought Bard could do this on release but I tested it in a norms and looked really stupid as we lost... ;-; Pls Rito give this to us Supports. Although I do wonder what would happen if your team FF's and you ult the Nexus???

I don't think the nexus loses its health when you /ff.

Heh I like Bard. I'm just saying Hyllisang would never play anything other than Bard if that was a thing.

They left out the nexus and inhibs because there is no valid reason to target the corresponding enemy structure, and they wanted to keep the uses symmetrical.

I suspect removing the nexus from the game temporarily might cause... problems :P

If Rito tested and fixed any bugs for it, it would be okay.

To avoid trolls they should make it so it only works on your own nexus or inhib.

I think that's one of the reasons they didn't implement it upon release. They wanted his ult to work symmetrically, so being able to ult your Nexus meant that he'd be able to ult the enemy Nexus, literally never helping your team.

Solidair32 votes

they explicitly left the nexus out of things his ult could affect for that very reason.

I... Would be ok with this

Couldn't he just save his ult for the nexus, if his team was turtle'd in and keep from the game from ending for a while?

I mean like, it seems pretty cool, but he might just be able to do it too often.

I suppose they could put an even longer cooldown on using it on structures if it became a problem.

They explained why it doesn't work on inhibs and nexuses (nexi?) - they wanted his ult to be usable on the same things on either team i.e. right now it can hit every type of minion, both team's champions and both team's turrets. There's no reason a Bard would ever ult his enemy's inhibitors or nexus so he can't ult his own either.

Lets not give trolls more tools to troll with. His ulti's already bad enough if you're with an unskilled or a literal troll Bard.

It sounds good, except I imagine many people would just freeze the enemy nexus when their team just barely won a teamfight that decided the fate of the game, then Bard tempered with it.

Are you talking about ulting his nexus? If so that's actually a good idea. If both the enemy's that's riot promoting trolling.

Silents4291 votes

I ain't exactly against this, but his ult already allows trolling, and being able to ult a Nexus can cause some serious problems.

Picture a base race and having your trolly bard ruin it by ulting the enemy nexus, refusing to ult your own, or ulting the enemy nexus when you are trying to rush it. Just random bits like this, I know he "can" troll with it as is, but these type of things are much more major, easier, and more likely going to set people over the edge.

I imagine they tried it during PBE or internal testing and found problems doing it anyway.
