Impius Deluge··1 votes·851 views

Like seriously... http://champion.gg/champion/Vladimir He was already shit from 6.14 with a 47% win rate.. and now they dropped him down to 44% with unreasonable nerfs? whats next patch? drop him to 40%? lol Statistically as you can see on champion.gg vlad is way below average on every stat. Only a slight 52% win rate for elite vlad? lol Thats facts right there that the balance team is failing. From this patch Vlad does not excel in anything. Whos responsible for this?

Because Rito is so overwhelmed they often forget about everything.

Like Illaoi. That sht is broken OP. From lvl 6 with item 1001 item 1036 item 1028 can 1v2 enemy top laner and jungler, kill them and survive with 30%-60% HP. If you are lucky and top won't feed her then she comes mid/bot and gets those free kills on squishies anyways and destroys the game.

Why? Cause they buffed her in tank META to be viable. Then tanks died out but Illaoi buffs stayed. Because Rito forgott.

So IMHO same goes for Vlad... these changes were planned so far ahead and now someone just forgot that Vlad is OK now and doesn't need more nerfs. But since they were already pinned on the board, ballance team just went for it..

don't fight her under tentacles and she's pretty worthless.

But what about other 4 people who does just that?

I saw Illaoi who was useless early because our top laner was dodging tentacles left and right all the time... then mid game team fights came, and as can be expected in low elo - everybody huddles for a group hug and then Illaoi gets her quadra and all of a sudden she is on the top and all the hard work our top laner did was out of the window...

Well, there's not much you can do at that point. The only thing you can really do is suggest in chat not to fight under her tentacles, not that they'll listen. Even in high elos though some people don't know how to fight her, apparently.

In that case the company sounds unorganized... maybe not enough staff? lol Shiiiet with so much money that the company is making you'd think theyd have the balance schedule under control... there arnt that many champions to forget some of them lol

I am sure they could use more people.

But with Tencent overlords who cares only about the money that's not likely gonna happen.

Just look how bad their regional, non-US branches are. Understaffed, not well trained, one person doing multiple tasks that should be handled by 2 or more employees... awful.

lolking and champion.gg statistics aren't as accurate as riot's statistics, but even with his winrate, he's still incredibly frustrating to play against. same with azir.

Every champ with some sort of heal is frustrating to play against. But that adds diversity to the game..vlad is a blood mage that does sh|t that annoys his enemy ..it is what it is. Nerfing him into an unplayable state because some people dont know how to play against him is not a vlad reason in any way.

well apparently to some Vlad mains you can go in the middle of an enemy team in a team fight, use your ult and if you're low health its ok because it will fully heal you. You also have high damage and great sustain since your a manaless mage.

you can _go in the middle of an enemy team in a team fight

This pretty much invalidates your argument.

You'll take enough damage getting to the middle of the enemy team that you'll die before your ult even pops. After that, even if it does pop, you now don't have pool in the middle of the enemy team. Not all cases call for Zhonya's; that's not a universal answer for him anymore, but its closer since his passive revert.

If you do, your team is so massively far ahead that it doesn't matter which champion you were playing.

true that, fact is vlad now is in the bottom 10 list of champions with the lowest win rate. No red took responsibility yet for their failure. @Meddler? was it you?
