@Riot Twitch Being Looked At?

I completely get the Q changes, but the combined nerfing of his Expunge and passive have left him in a rough spot.

If not, I'd really love to hear what the thought is on him right now?

Twitch Your rat loves you, Rito :c Twitch


EDIT: Riot has some explaining to do:

Most of his kit revolves around his passive that isn't really that good.

At the passive's max rank, with max stacks, and the full duration, the target takes 216 true damage.

Vayne's W, Silver Bolts, does 60 true damage + 8% of their maximum health and in the time it takes for Twitch to apply the max stacks of the DoT, Vayne with the same attack speed could do 120 true damage + 16% of their maximum health.

Twitch can potentially cover an entire team with this, but It's insanely difficult and not really that rewarding for how difficult it can be.

Twitch's passive doesn't even do damage early game really since it just stops or even lowers their health regen.

I feel like Twitch could be buffed on his passive's overall damage and turn him into a late game hypercarry he should be. He's really strong late game, but what's the point of playing him in solo queue or picking him over Tristana and Vayne.

Twitchs passive adds 12 bonus true damage to an Autoattack in the early game. That is actually good. But it sucks that there is a limit for stacks.

But the best buff for Twitch would be if his stealth duration would scale with AP. 1 second for 10 AP. Atm his stealth feels so weak compared to Evelynn.

Because AP is core on Twitch, amirite? He doesn't even build Trinity Force.

His whole schtick is his poison, and right now it's weak. I think the area for examination is clear.

But there would be a reason to build triforce, or to use hybrid masteries etc. If you give him just more base stealth or an stealth AD scaling, he would be OP, therefore an AP scaling.

8 seconds stealth is too risky in my opinion, he should have the possibility to wait in stealth for the right moment or to leave the situation without attacking.

Really want to know if he's on the radar, or if they think he's fine.

Found this in Twitch's home the other day. Riot, you have some explaining to do.

As much as I love Twitch, he's just not very good. His early is really weak, and his late game is roughly on par with Vayne/Trist/Kog'Maw,....Why not just use Vayne/Trist/Kog'Maw?,....He doesn't feel worth using over other ADCs, especially considering he's immobile.

Relaly curious if he's even on the list.
