Am I missing something? Why is Press the Attack getting nerfed?? Because adcs use it?? They have several other keystones they can use. Why not just nerf it for range champions?? I haven't seen many melee Press the Attack users that have a high win rate.

You wanna nerf something that is actually a real problem??

How about Pantheon?!? He's had like a 54% win rate for like the past...I don't know, 1+ year?!? Or Jayce?? One of the most toxic top lane champions ever since his release? How about Maokai and Cho'Gath?!? Maybe pure tanks shouldn't deal so much damage. How about stealth (the entire mechanism), which has no counterplay?!? Or how about Ezreal???

Weird, isn't it? Most of the high win rate champions are tanks and poke champions. Wanna know how my Sion games went?? Pick Sion top. Choose Arcane Comet or Summon Aery. Go in the lane. E. E. E. E. E. E. Watch as your enemy smashes his keyboard in frustration. Win.

Press the attack is literally crowding out every other option. It's also offering the highest amount of damage.

Then they should buff the other options. They are pathetic. I know a lot of people looked at that juicy 30-80% attack speed and made a mess in their pants, but I have learned enough to know that attack speed doesn't offer as much in a fight as raw damage, let alone delayed attack speed.

No it isn't. The other options are shit.

I too enjoyed Hashinshin's recent youtube video. I hope they address the frustrations of top lane soon.

I don't check things like tier lists as often as I used to. I thought that I was just bad. Didn't know Pantheon was THAT much of a problem.

But Hashinshin touched too much on the top lane subject. There are other issues as well. Like stealth. Stealth is NOT ok.

I good Panth makes their laner want to afk. Good thing I hear he's up there on the VGU list.

I think top lane has been ignored too long now to back-seat it to other things again. I don't think stealth overall is the issue, just the duration of it when talked about in conjunction with the intended counterplay for some champs Akali Twitch .

Stealth never has been okay but according to riot it makes gameplay Spicy

Stealth isn’t the problem, stealth being available to champs that have ranged attacks is the problem. Twitch is easily and by far the top example of broken stealth. Akali is also a problem, but at least she has some risk involved (not enough to justify it though).

Evelynn is an example of balanced stealth. She has to reveal herself by running into melee range to actually be a threat, and her only ranged attack is nothing more than a light poke on a long cooldown. Her stealth is basically just a way to hide her roaming.

No stealth really is a problem until they add the option of PURPLE WARDS again i will always have issues with stealth The fact control wards don't reveal jack shit is a serious problem old pinks did a reasonable job but that made the junglers job too hard as it required careful skill and planning for Evelynn Shaco Rengar Khazix Twitch
The fact junglers can appear outta jack shit nowhere will always be a serious issue Pink wards should be reverted and get rid of these shit item 2055
