Base turrets slow Olaf during his ultimate

Last time I checked slows are disables aren't they? Is this a glitch or is it intentional that Olaf can still be slowed by them?

Riot would change this but then they would have to break their golden law of never buffing Olaf

But riot did actually buff olaf at one point during season 4 :D so that law has already been broken.

Shhh, that didn't happen.

as if true damage wasn't annoying enough, now we have true CC (and don't get me started on that truer than true damage on the smites incident)

Pure Damage, intended only for the fountain turret's LAZOR OF DOOM?

ChrisB5Jan 16, 20151 votes

It would be defined as pure cc by the way he's describing it since it penetrates all logic, just like pure damage from the super base laser of deathness (which ignores trynd's ult, zil's ult, zhona, GA, and everything else).

But the problem with smite is that Smite dealt a form of pure damage and went right through tryn's ult hahaha. Not sure if it stopped others like GA or Zil's ult, but a part of me wishes they had kept it.... nobody likes trynd players! :P

I think they slow Master Yi as well.

They slow through Morgana 's Black Shield.

Diving those turrets is already easy enough.

Olaf? whats that?

I think it's a champion they're making. Like "Yorick", "Urgot", or a "Karma". I guess they must be out on PBE or something.

Well since we all know that Olaf is the most difficult champ in the game to kite, they had to do something. You don't want that super mobility olaf chasing you under your tower and killing you over and over, do you?

rinsujoJan 16, 20152 votes

Oh, certainly not. I'm sure a few nerfs in other places could be justified on such an OP champ - but his ult should be consistent. (+1 for sarcasm. you made me chuckle.)

This is kinda depressing, you want to go all-in Lucian while Sona and Leblanc are behind him. But when you ult and Q, you get slowed and will never catch him out.
