Galio Update Now Live

The issue with size is that they would have to shrink more then half the game to get these champs to fit, is a special case because he is constantly growing but I agree there is little justice for the giants as stated in the msgs above. anyway s main issue atm is that he can go full tank and still do as much damage as steroid lux. Riot has a lot of problems these days with balance and trying to keep the money input solid instead of dropping so they cut corners and do things like make grinding so annoying that people cave and just buy stuff, its annoying. maybe when they stop working on champs the game will balance out but that could be years from now so in the mean time, play broken champs uphold the code and have humility, it could be a while. or maybe just leave and do something else.

Which means it doesn't make sense to create characters that are stupidly huge and them put them in the context of fighting regular-sized champions.

At least Taliyah has a creative ult and passive, so I can accept her. New Galio is completely and utterly uninspired and just doesn't belong in League of Legends. The old Galio was much better and did occupy a worthwhile niche, making it straight up better, making a total revert on this entire VGU the way to go. We were clearly better off before. They should place an absolute ban on champion concepts that can't physically fit, size-wise, in the Summoner's Rift style of gameplay we actually have in League of Legends. Any such characters have to be relegated to non-champions that appear in non-game media. This colossus just doesn't work. ANY colossus just would not work as a champion unless they either majorly redesign the game engine and/or put some kind of explanation in the lore as to why a mountain-sized champion is now at best still less than twice the height of a perfectly ordinary man. Did Teemo permanently shrink-ray Galio at some point?

Lolz I have a problem with the Colossus because his kit is nothing like Galio, but it has nothing to do with size, the lore makes it clear that the summoners of the League of Legends are capable of insane feats of magic in order to enlist the champions to fight on their behalf, so magically shrinking monster champs down to normal size is not that big of a deal, its far from the weirdest aspect of shit that goes on in the connection between lore and gameplay.

But that's exactly what Thresh and Veigar's is like. One is just a remodeled version of the other. Plus there are plenty of other champions that have similar working abilities like Yasuo and Janna for example. They both have a tornado that does the exact same thing. Garen and Darius both a have a dunk, Darius's just does more damage while Garen's silences them. Ivern basically has as one of his abilities. Morgana, Lux, Zyra, etc. all have a skill shot snare that works exactly the same only with different animations and scales of damage. Xin Zhao and Janna's ultimates work almost the same except Janna heals while Xin does damage.

Plus when there are now 134 champions in LoL, you should expect that it begins to become more difficult for unique concepts and mechanics to show themselves.

Oh I criticize lots of things, believe me. Like certain things about the free rotation, the overflow of illegal farm bots making the illegal buying a fresh level 30 account a quick an easy process for every toxic player who gets themselves banned or even just suspended, the lack of the Item Set Creator, I'm sure I could think of more. I post some positive things too. So yeah... you're completely wrong.

I speak my mind.

You do realize I'm only talking about champion reworks right? I couldn't care less about your thoughts on botting or the item set creator (by the way, Riot says that since the new client is still in Beta, they're not adding it since they fear it will create additional bugs so yeah there you go). So please look at what I'm talking about before you go off on a tangent in an effort to "prove me wrong." Thanks ^_^ [slayer-jinx-catface]
