Anivia Changes PBE 6.23 @Riot
**UPDATE: You can read my thoughts post update after playing 10+ games here: http://thenest.shivtr.com/news_entries/375569 **
@Riot: Did you actually listen to my suggestions? Or was this just coincidence? Genuinely curious, it would be super cool if I had any sort of impact on a change that made it into the game.
P.S if so feel free to make me an ethical Anivia gameplay consultant free of charge <3
**Edit: Expect an in depth statistical & gameplay perspective based review/update to this post if these changes are published. **
Here are a few links to boards posts I made months ago suggesting/predicting the Anivia changes we're seeing in the 6.23 PBE notes:
http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/bKcoMwvk-lets-talk-about-anivia
"I would be in favor of a burst window/R+E increase by 1.5 seconds, but 3 seconds is plain unreasonable. They should also buff her R+E damage if they are going to increase her burst window." - Ice Chicken, 2 months ago
"We're lowering the time on Anivia's glacial storm to reach full size from 3 seconds to 1.5 seconds, and increasing the damage on her E+R combo to 300% from 200%. However, her Glacial Storm must be at full size for E to do double damage." - Riot, 6.23 PBE
I called it almost verbatim ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Conclusion: I think these changes will make her a bit more enjoyable to lane against while rewarding the Anivia player for landing skillshots, and positioning well. Good stuff.
Note To Riot: However with that being said, expect an in depth statistical & gameplay perspective based review/update to this post if these changes are published (regardless of whether the update makes her balanced/stronger or if this update totally kills her early mid game rendering her useless.
:D
