IMO fervor has made the game incredibly hard to balance

Too many free stats and gives a lot of damage to people who are building tank. Gives ADCs crazy damage too. EDIT:a lot of people are saying that keystones are making this game incredibly hard to balance. I agree.

The diverse days of Lucien vs Siver and Siver vs Lucian were so much more diverse.

I'm talking in your language.

Meanwhile I can say that sentence because I know game.I also know meta.What is problem?

SirSmokeysAlot22 votes

The dude is being a prick. Most people who speak English do not understand that we have a very strange language. Only thing you are missing is the word "the" in some of your sentences. It would be "What is the problem?" and "When was the tank meta? Where are the tanks?". I'm just happy you can write English. That's a lot harder than speaking it. I know I don't have it in me to learn another language.

You literally repeated what i said in different words...

Fondling Gems8 votes

Pretty sure that north america =/= a universal language. Which is what you are saying.

You line implied that not everyone in NA speaks english. My line implied that english is not a language that everyone speaks. Those two lines might seem similar but they are fundamentally different arguments.

Those are two very different arguments as you are saying that because A, B

I am saying that because B, C

Where:

A) Is the server being NA

B) Is the speaking of English

C) Is English not being spoken by everyone


In other words you are saying that being in the NA server doesn't mean everyone speaks english

I am saying that just because Apex speaks English, does not mean everyone speaks English.


As similar as they sound they are two different arguments. I was not arguing with your point, I was adding to it from a different view point.

Literally what IBG Sunfire was.. ANY champion built those two items and they could solo kill and usually 1v2 anybody on the map.

Go play a game and try it out..

Marshbouy3 votes

I have. It's not that effective. It's strong, sure, but it's not 1v2 any champion.

Knoyle2 votes

The sad part is it's not even that much of a problem on champs like Illaoi Darius Volibear Olaf but more so on champions who shouldn't have any business even looking at them like Ekko Fizz Yasuo Akali

What's happening to this game?

when you think at first glance 1-14 stacking up to 8 times it isn't a lot, but then you realise what your really seeing is 8-112 free damage on your autos

Maybe (just maybe) we should have this damage scale down with attack speed? So that a kog with 4.5 attack speed isn't going to do 504 damage a second for free lategame?

This post should be named "Keystone masteries have made game incredibly hard to balance". Fervor of Battle isn't the only offender: Grasp of the Undying is responsible for all those tank assasins builds, Thunderlord led to infamous "League of Thunderlords" and overall the damage increasing keystones are the main reason of the huge damage creep we experience this season. IMO, keystone masteries are the biggest mistake of this season, even bigger than goddamn Graves.

Matezoide8 votes

Keystone Masteries were a mistake.

You know how DFG got deleted because Riot said they had to balance every mage around this item? Same thing here, but with every single champion in the game.

ZT Xperimentor2 votes

Same thing happened with; Will of the Ancients, Atma's Impaler, Eleisa's Miracle, & Runic Bulwark. Riot needs to fix their design philosophies before forcing them on us.

MonkeyMadness6 votes

lol OP this is not an opinion, it is cold hard fact. Fervor and grasp of the undying have made the game complete shit, in that champs can build virtually full tank and still deal craploads of damage. The other damage masteries (deathfire and thunderlords) also cause issues with dealing too much damage, but at least you have to build daamge to take advantage of them fully. not the case with fervor and grasp.

Take my upvote in the hopes that someone at riot still gives a shit about us players that just want to enjoy the game we've come to love over the years without being repeatedly raped by the same 3 or 4 fervor/grasp abusing champs (ie ekko and yasuo).

if you're having that many issues with it, you can always just buy a ruby or dorans shield. Early game health helps in so many ways its astonishing i dont see more people do it.

rip. his ult armor pen exists

CeexSett2 votes

So, because he has 50% bonus armor pen, you don't buy any armor?

What do you do then?

Marshbouy6 votes

You know what i do then? I build item 3143 . This isn't about being a tank vs a yasuo though. just because armor exists doesn't mean tank yasuo was not busted. just because CC exists doesn't mean bruiser yi was busted. just because MR exists does not mean malzahar was op.

You are a person who has sunk down to the bottom of my chart of idiocy. I would put you at the bottom, but sadly i have seen worse.

CeexSett2 votes

I would rather swing the idiocy around. The guy up, Veng, mentioned 2 good ways to hinder Yasuo, to which you responded "rip his ult armor pen exists". That is completely idiotic, because not only is his ult not the entire champion, it's still only 50%.

That complain is like the players who say there is no counterbuilding to Vayne because she has %max hp true damage. Completely retarded.

Check your idiocy charts dude. Be sure you are not crowding spaces yourself.

Veltox2 votes

What exactly is the 'counter build' for vayne?item 3110 and item 3143 barely make her care.
