ULTIMIORE THEORY CAFTING
"Gain 5% cooldown reduction and maximum cooldown reduction on your ultimate. This increases by 1.5% each time you cast your ultimate. Stacks up to 10 times."
Ok, so this is crazy. 60% cdr on an ult means you can pop that baby twice a fight. Funnily, I read this as UTILIMORE the first time, and it's more than accurate. Giving up damage or tank to spam an inherently strong ultimate over and over is a great trade off for certain champions. Here's a few I was looking at:
Each of them hits 32 seconds for their team fight winning ults. You can use it once to save a carry, and a second time when you push down the tower. Holy balls. It pushes Orianna into more of a Rylai's support playstyle, but there are some matches where she ends up being an ult bot anyway.
The LIFE SAVERS! 32 seconds on Kayle, 24 on ZILEAN! Ain't touch'n My carries! Support Kayle is somewhat uncommon, but comes up occasionally as a lane bully that helps out marksmen who deal a bit of AP damage.
Did I say ult twice a fight? How about 3 or 4 times? 14.4 seconds on AOE shields. 20 second laser. What. The. Lux. Honestly I think Lux would prefer a raw damage effect, but perhaps the sheer aoe damage will make it worth it in a heavily team fight based match up.
Any other crazy ones you notice? Maybe a champ with a stupidly long ult cool down who would finally be able to use it every team fight?
Now i can use my ult to push the wave an throw a few Qs to get it back before the team fight breaks out, or use it at start of fight and then use it to snipe someone running away. i feel the nerf to his ult cd by increasing it by 50% is what really really hurt ap ezreal the most. and did absolutely jack shit to ad ezreal.
