Riot: "Since we removed dfg, Veigar probably needs some updates so he isn't hurt too badly."

Community: "Okay, what did you have in mind?"

Riot: "Well, we have a few thoughts on this. First off, his mana costs are too large and his cooldowns are way too long, so we're going to buff those on most of his abilities."

Community: "That sounds good."

Riot: "However, he has some counterplay issues. So we're going to make his Q a skill shot to allow for a bit of counterplay. To make up for that though, we'll allow Q to hit two targets."

Community: "Well... Alright, that's fair."

Riot: "However, since he's able to Q farm more, we're going to remove a 20% chunk of the scaling from his R."

Community: "Wait what? You can't just give him a strength then completely negate it-"

Riot: "Also we think Veigar needs more counterplay still. He can 100-0 our waifus like Katarina and Ahri without them being able to counter play it. So we're going to add a .75 s delay to his stun landing, AND we're going to add a warning particle. That'll teach veigar players to play an immobile champion, errr i mean, that should introduce some healthy counterplay to veigar."

Community: "WTF, That's an awful change!"

Riot: "Shhh, we know what we're doing."

Ahri this sounds familiar

?

Oh, you mean when people thought ahri was being gutted? Yeah well veigar isn't receiving any damage buffs nor movement buffs, and he's losing a ton of reliability. Somehow I don't think that bit of history will be repeated.

Did you forget the shorter cooldown on his ult so he can spam it more???? and the longer range on his Q AND his E????

Oh my, a 10 second reduction at all ranks. So significant on an ultimate cooldown.

Oh, the now less reliable abilities have a slightly longer range? Oh awesome. That's great. His ult didn't get the same treatment, so he'll have to get in closer to use it. Which you can't really do that well since his E isn't reliable and veigar is like #3 on the list of squishy targets to bully right behind twisted fate and sona. Heck, maybe veigar will be number 1 now since twisted fate and sona can actually reliably land their stuns.
