Meddler told us that they are going to buff Rumbles Q. This is probably the best thing happened in a long time for me I mean that Flamespitter does full damage to minions? But is this the only change to his Q? Just asking :)

That's the only chance we've currently got planned for Rumble's Q yeah. We'll probably reduce his ult CD slightly as well.

There's also some wider stuff that should have a noticeable indirect impact on Rumble - nerfs to a couple of things he doesn't use that other people he often lanes against do (Grasp, Iceborn).

That is helpful but wont bring him back into the meta. AD is still too powerful.

Speaking of Rumble, will his Q bug be fixed on Super Galaxy Rumble? Basically he cannot use an empowered Q if his Heat is 45 or 40 when it starts decaying rapidly, like when it is still yellow, but he can use his other abilities just fine. Anything regarding that?

The other buffs happened several patches ago actually. That's when people started picking him in the jungle for a patch.

They made it have slightly faster tic rates (which means more consistent damage if you're moving around)

Isn't this just going to pretty much remove lane interaction with rumble completely. It already feels low when he's just constantly shoving you in.

I don't think it's really that much of a buff. Rumble's Q great strength currently is that it harasses without pushing the lane more than necessary. Toplane is a lot about control of the wave, and if Rumble has to autopush to trade, it's more of a weakness than anything.
