Please revert Nocturne fear changes

Nocturnes pre 6 ganks were already pretty inconsistent but now they are basically impossible, and even once you get your ult its still very difficult to get behind champions that have ANY sort of movement ability at all, characters I could run behind while tethering fear include but are not limited to: no one.

I don't jungle very often but when I do I pretty much only play nocturne, I've also played him top and in dominion a fair bit and hes really fun has a cool theme, looks cool and is stronger than people give him credit for, but hes no wukong, panth, Vi, Lee sin, ect. I think that a better change would for the terror to always send them towards you at a slow, just have it act like a charm. Lorewise this makes sense as he is sending an image of blind terror into their mind and should be able to make them run whichever way he wants them to. OR just let it be random like it was before since that was fine in most cases.

Anyways I dont mind when champions that are strong that I play get nerfed, but when any 'weak' champion gets nerfed it makes it even harder to justify picking them in ranked where you already were flamed for not fping vi or wukong when they were available.

Thank you!

Then they would have to undo the patch changes with Fiddle and Shaco as well.

Hate to be the dissenting opinion here, but it wasn't intended as a nerf so much as a 'common sense update'. Let's look at reality for a second here. What do you do when you are afraid of something? You run AWAY from it. Not towards, not around, not in circles aimlessly, but away from whatever it is that you are afraid of. It's expected in the real world, and it's what it should be in the game world.

These fear changes are our punishment for trying to jungle anyone except lee sin and vi.

lee sin and vi.

lee sin. vi.

vi. lee sin.

Those are your options now. Anything else will be nerfed until it is unplayable. Panth will be nerfed next. Riot has spoken.

Seriously, this sucks soooo much. I dont want to learn how to play VI to jungle.

Sorry to be the voice of reason here... But have you considered that now they can buff Noc?
