So, the Mid season patch is gonna hit this week, so consider this:
It's new for everyone.
These changes have only been on the PBE for two weeks and it's not the best tool to get a good look at how they'd play out on the live servers. A lot of youtube channels in particular rely on PBE content to make a living and they might use extremely clickbait-y footage to net in some extra views so you can't take them that serious anyways.
Thing is, these changes are BOUND to be imbalanced. There WILL be changes to the major Tank reworks, items and other mid-season goodies in the following patches. And most importantly, nobody really knows how to deal WITH them or play AGAINST them either.
So, before you'll jump onto the boards and complain about Maokai being too weak, Sejuani being OP or Mordekaiser being outright busted with the new Rift Herald take a few steps back and thing to yourself. "Is it legitimately broken or was it just the usual Midseason chaos?"
In the meantime, try out full ap Bushmage Maokai and Triforce Sejuani. You won't regret it!
And make sure to enjoy these changes, it's always fun to have one patch of complete chaos as it's bound to shake things up!
