The reason why Twitch received buffs

Wukong Airlines·Mar 7, 2018·31 votes·3,569 views

We all know how frustrating it is for a Rat to be almost invisible around the map 24/7, is broken, but one problem arose all of a sudden, Stronger ADCs .

So now in order to balance the competition, they buffed him.

guess whats gonna happen? ANOTHER adc will prove to be weaker, so they will buff him/her, and so forth.

It's funny how in the last couple of seasons the normal decent win ratio was around 47%, now Riot is trying so hard to keep most champions on 50%+ win ratio , knowing how a lot of those have high pick ratio.

Keep buffing the ADCs Rito, but lets give from 3.2 to 4 AD per level and an extrea 10% on the returning Rake [[Rake (W) return AD ratio increased from 60% to 70%]] , yes, good job buff the R then revert, then buff the harder part of the "W", then they be like " we wanna be careful around buffing / , we don't wanna over do it".

Complaining about Wu being buffed is kind of missing the point. You wanna know what a Wukong does to win he presses E Q and R and your team can´t do anything to stop it´s damage outside of the continuing R damage. He is just a toxic champion with a toxic interactivity kit. Sort of like Talon before they removed his "pshhh nothing personal kid" e.

Well, yeah. You do want to be careful when buffing Talon . His combo deals 410% of his AD in less than 3 seconds, which for a midlane assassin, means he NEEDS to be bad, otherwise he's just busted.

That being said, ADC's need nerfs, not buffs. They are making everything cancer.

I was thinking “hey, maybe he can mKe a post without complaining bout Wukong! Fwitch and him are so seperate” LEL nope

They didn't need to buff him to match other ADCs (especially since Ashe is still in the dumpster being ignored). They shoulda nerfed all the stronger ADCs so that we could finally get to fixing this game

Hey that's a nice buff to Wu. That makes Triforce and Sterak's a bit better on him.

"We nerfed PTA which hit Twitch hard, so we're going to buff Twitch. Then we're going to revert the PTA nerfs!"

(Yes I know PTA didn't get fully reverted)

Jokes on them because a majority of twitch players barely use PTA.

The problem is: he got nerfed a patch ago. But.... its not the nerf he needed. It was just a slight damage nerf..................... a patch ago.......... of all times.

While he was fucking dominant for an entire season last year. And twich was disgusting when he was allowed to be meta. Just like he will be disgusting again once he becomes meta.

I don't dislike the buff that they gave him. Probably even a full revert of the last patch nerf can be done too. Why? because, again, its not the nerf he needed.

He should've some lost his stupid invisibility radius, make the detection range higher. swap his and evelyn's >.>

That's the main nerf twich needs (maybe a few more minor ones, but the radius is the biggest thing) And riot is JUST REFUSING TO DO IT.

Base movement speed is so bad on talon and his rework were also bad. I like how they compensate ADCs 24/7, man i hate the favortism. Same thing is with Kha'zix that he gets compensation 24/7. Wukong is bad because of the resolve tree matchups, thats all i have to say about him. Play tank against Wukong is free win, if you wanna have a good time against tank, pick a tank lol and also i hate that illaoi wins every melee match up.

Assassin update was broken at "launch" and now every rework turned out shit, because they based around the asssassins too much around assassins items. Back in S2 - S3 you build zed with black cleaver and bork. It turned out same with wu he is being balanced around duskblade, man i hate this game.

lolipopevelynnMar 7, 20181 votes

riot: hehe, we nerfed assassins during their "update" and secretly made their "assassin items" synergize more with ADCs than actual assassins. lets take this chance to buff the hell out of all the ADCs. ranged assassins is where we are headed next!

Ezreal Kalista KogMaw Tristana Vayne have been nerfed this season in addition to Twitch's current state still being an overall nerf from pre-8.4. Kog's nerf was in fact a case of riot over-doing a nerf, as he went from the best adc to one of the worst in one patch.

Uhh, that isn't how percents work. The "normal" winrate has always been 50% because there is 5 winning champions and 5 losing champions in every game. While people are more conscious of the winrate of the champions they pick nowadays, it has always been bad/subpar to pick a champion who had a 47% winrate unless you had a higher mastery of the champion as compared to the average player. To balance towards 50% is a good general rule of thumb unless there is a specific reason not to (like high skill cap champion).

P.S. I don't think Twitch needs buffs.
