So the Rylai's nerf

I think we are going to start seeing more item 3116 +item 3151 since both of them are now cheaper! I will totally try it on Cass, it gives health, MPen, and you dont have to worry about oponents stacking health, overall, a nice dps choice for battling mages. What do you guys think? is this combination going to be more viable now? I did not do it before because yisus, it was too much gold.

League Community: "We hate getting permaslowed by Rylai's due to champions like Brand and Cass being able to apply it constantly with their DoTs and spammable abilities."

Riot: "... we also want the slow to be less attractive to mages who can’t reapply it consistently."

Now the item sucks. Had they left the slow and nerfed the stats, it would be fine, or even if they had nerfed the slow and left the stats, it would be fine, but they totally killed it. Not worth getting on anyone who doesn't really need it. A direct Taliyah nerf, due to the above reason of her really needing it.

It sucks now. They should have left the stats alone and just nerfed the slow (if it was even broken at all).

Totally sucks now, that 20% slow is nothing against tenacity/swiftness mastery/swiftness boots, its like its not even there. All the hype about getting it early is just that, pointless hype, you get it earlier with a passive that basically no longer exists against champs you actually need it for, aka brain dead tankmasters with 600 movespeed that cant be slowed.

So what you're left with in the end is a 25% less stats Rylai with a passive that basically doesnt exist vs summoners with the above mentioned combination of items/masteries, all that for a 600g cost reduction....worth it? Fuck no [zombie-brand-facepalm]

No, Rylai's is literal trash now on the people who didn't already build item 3116 item 3151.

1/3 slow duration.

1/2 slow value.

3/4 stat value.
