Upcoming Velkoz Nerfs

I don't normally complain like this anymore, but I really feel the need to here.

Why, when there are far more problematic mages out there - are you nerfing Vel'koz into the ground, Riot?

You are utterly -- disintegrating him.

No idea where you're finding those supposed changes, but they're certainly not something we're doing.

Those nerfs would DESTROY Vel'Koz. Statistically Vel'Koz is balanced with almost a 4% play rate and about a 53% winrate. Its debatable about whether or not he's on the strong side but even if he deserves a nerf, this would be way too much.

Plus there's some errors with the pictures.

Vel'koz needs nerfs about as much as Xerath does. Which is not at all. They're balanced by being stupid easy to play. Of course they're going to have high win rates.

Where on earth did you find these, and why didn't you question the validity of them the second you saw them? It shows his E damage being lowered to 10-50, when his current level 1 e does 70.

But he needs nerfs. to have his Ult do True damage was stupid (as is with all true damage abilities.
