Rek'sai nerfed 7 times, still playable in Worlds.

Gragas got 1 nerf on his ult, became instant trash-tier.

Zed when you play zed everyday, but still bad. Then, it got nerfed and you're still bad.

Kindred That rough couple of patches where they got gutted.

Patch 1: Q resets to 4 seconds at earlier ranks and returns to 2 seconds at rank 4. Q and E nerf. "Ok they were strong. I can deal with that."

Patch 2: Slow on E get's nerfed to 40% instead of 70%. "Come on that is a 1 second slow! and our primary ganking tool!"

Patch 3: Heal passive on E is reduced, W damage nerfed. "Rito what are you doing?!"

Patch 4: Passive severely nerfed, plus Q nerf that ends in a buff IF you play well enough and can be sneaky in the opponents jungle. "RITO STOP"

Azir is 42% winrate. I pay my bills. I donate to charity. I even gave up the last slice of pizza once. So why, god, why would you do this to me?

Rek'Sai was nerfed 7 times in a row, but like 3 of them were with buffs in the same patch. Wake up, sheeple.

I fucking fell off my chair there.

  • Nerfed damage and base stats like 6 times.
  • Buffed knock-up bot twice.
  • Followed by a nerfed to knock-up bot afterwards.

Like Irelia. She's been nerfed a million times in a row.

Confusing a joke with reality. She wasn't touched for like 3 years. Then got nerfed maybe 3 times over 2 years.

They're way off on the Kha'zix point, used to main him and love him back in the Alex Ich midlane era but once he could no longer use void spikes while leaping it was such a big hit to his kit and potential. Then they forced him to be strictly a jungler, ruined my favorite champ and I haven't played him in over a year...thanks Rito

Shen Has a very low pick rate and win rate. I guess that calls for a nerf to his already low damage output(If building full tank which is the best way to play him) and shielding power. Oh look, his win rate dropped even lower.

Play a few custom games, run some experiments with some number crunching, see if anything overall has dramatically changed and adapt.

Never stop playing a champ because they were nerfed unless the nerf was intentionally hampering to the champions performance against the bar...

I.E. Evelynn gets her kit destroyed effectively deactivating her for the entirety of 2011. Even then they are still usable, but as long as the people are willing to trust your skill with the champion and not fall to despair because of the stigma that came with such a nerf, you will know how to contribute to your team's success.

Trust me man... I never put her down and she was always usable... unless your team hates you then you sorta are forced to play something else for the sake of the team's morale.

FYI.. I'm far from a 1-trick-pony.

not to long ago they nerfed jhin and he is my main but i don't mind, in my opinion it's what makes the game so fun, the constant changes and nerfs and reworks shows a devoted team to make a game that is fun and has a large community that feels more like a family.

The stages people go through when champs are nerfed.

Stage one: Rage Example: You log on to see the patch notes You: SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Stage Two: Sadness Example: OMGOMGOMGOMG MY CHAMPION GOT NERFED ;-:-:;

Stage Three: Calming Example: Sigh... i guess it is what it is.

Stage four: Accepting the nerf

Stage Five: YOUR CHAMPION GETS BUFFED!
