Karthus

Wall of Pain (W)
Mana cost lowered from 100 to 70
Cooldown lowered from 18 to 15
Requiem (R) mana cost lowered from [150/175/200] to [100 at all ranks]

I don't exactly know if this is something to write home about, but it's something. :P Now if Rito decided to either remove the slow decay that was implemented when both Rylai's was strong and DFT was a thing, or at least push back the slow decay to 2 seconds which at least would be manageable. I'd love to see that! Also I'd like to remind Riot there's still that bug where Wall won't give you vision at the poles if you're dead/ in passive, that's annoying :P

Mana cost reductions are always my favorite buffs to see on my champions. And it was probably the best way to go about it, anyways.

I never notice that the wall cost 100 mana. It's a great buff but as you said I liked better the slow decay revert

They need to revert the slow decay, borderline useless at level 1 still. In fact it probably needs to have a grounded effect on it due to all the hyper-mobility in the game which is one of the reasons why karthus isn't good anymore.

these buffs are whatever tier tbh.

I mean, sure. That's fine.

I'd rather they fixed the bug that sometimes stops you from casting spells for the first couple seconds of your passive, but I suppose this is alright.

No longer will you spend 5 seconds frantically trying to last hit with auto attacks because the ADC is at 120 health and you're 20 mana short.
