Is there even a point in going a mage anymore? I think I'm just gonna start doing AP Sion Mid

Every game is going to have an assassin in it, Mage's only had their late game wave-clear going for them at this point but now thanks to Riot's genius design team we don't even have that. And I am SO fucking looking forward to seeing assassins with their ults up constantly because the unparalleled intelligence of Riot's balance team thinks it's a good idea to give them easy access to fucking ULTIMATE HAT. Have fun trying to play anymore when always have their ults WITHIN A MINUTE once they hit the CDR cap, and god fucking forbid you imagine how miserable it'll be with and waltzing mid every time their Ult comes off CD.

Oh but hey man just build and hug your turret, it's not like they have over-inflated additional damage thanks to and Electrocute/Harvest, or a ton of Mobility that makes ignoring the tower actual child's play. I'm sure you can pull it off and manage the waves without an issue with that 0 Mana you've got.

So fuck it, I'll just grab a Tank with decent wave-clear, build a / and just mindlessly push to keep the assassins from roaming since there isn't jack diddly shit I can do against it as a mage who can only do damage and keep doing it by going full squishy Mana while the assassins are free to build whatever the fuck they please.
