NERFED: Swain ult expends mana during Zhonyas and Ult cooldown is extreme

What was RIOT thinking? This is one way to make using a crippled champion (no pun intended) even more unfun. The only mechanical tricks up Swain's sleeve were using zhonya to keep ult on while low on mana. That's it. And why does RIOT feel the need to nerf an already crippled spell twice, no less? The cooldown is ridiculously large now. It's worse than the fake "ultimates" of modular champions like Jayce (gate/knockback) and Elise (coccoon), which are not even on the R key. This guy's ult always revolved around expending your mana at critical times. Now they're just making Swain impossible to use for pushing waves, making small exchanges, and jungling.

Then you don't know how to use him, I play him with 0 issues. He has decent waveclear, and has one of the best trades of all midlaners (if you count him as one.) and he isn't even a jungle champ.

LOL, you failed miserably at TANK JUNGLE swain and that makes you decide to rant on boards about how you think its swain being nerfed and not just you being bad at swain and playing him as wrong as you possibly could without trying to be adc swain.
