I just wanna send a big thanks to the guys working on the mid-year mage update!

When I first heard this announcement, I'll be honest I was dreading what was going to happen. "Oh boy, we're gonna have a repeat of the Juggernauts"

But actually, with 3 dev-blogs up already and so early I've started looking forward to what we might get.

The fact that Repertoir, Beluga Whale, and 20thCenturyFaux are genuinely asking for and paying attention to player feedback is fantastic! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Because we all remember what happened with the Juggernauts. It was announced way too late for any big changes to happen and plenty of people were left ignored coughMordeksaiserfeedbackcough

This time 'round however it's clear they've learnt from past mistakes and have gotten players on board far sooner so they can get a better idea of what the players are hoping for. Again, fantastic!

I'm looking forward to the other 3 dev blogs for the other 3 champions. Keep up the good work fellas! Seeing this has restored a lot of faith in some of Riot. (SOME, but baby steps)

Juggernauts rework also seemed like a good idea at first. Look how well that one turned out.

And you really believe we have anything to say about the mage update just because they announced it sooner? Oh, boy.

You sound like an absolute blast at a party. Regardless at least we know about it sooner, on top of that they're taking feedback before work has even started. That's more than the Juggernauts update could ever boast.

Now if you're done being such a kill-joy...

I'm speaking from experience with Riot. Just because they say they are listening, doesn't mean they will ever do anything productive with that knowledge.

Also, how I behave at parties have exactly zero relevance to the topic.

Chill out it was a joke. (i'll admit a poor one, but regardless)

Look I'm just trying to be optimistic here. And I'll say again, this is more than what we got on the Juggerc*nts update. Then it was just "Here are some changes that are basically ready to ship, anything you tell us will have little impact" (Outside of numbers tweaks obviously)

So forgive me for putting aside my cynicism for once, I'd just like to see a rework actually work out. Rather than leave us with triple ADC comps.
