1/23 PBE Update: Swain Update, new Icons, and more!

looking at the rune changes, I wonder if nerfing the I3 boots by 2 minutes is something that we should be doing? most junglers right now can 1v1 without having buffs. imo the real issue with I3 is the mvspeed, NOT the gold reduction. I3 is the same as being punished until mid-game for a value of 300-210 gold (everyone in lane is going to have their boots before 12 mins so both of these values are deflated.) and with the mana flow patch, are you promoting scaling mana mages while Ryze is meta? both of these changes are going to reintroduced Cassiopeia ?Anivia ?AurelionSol ? out of all of these Cassiopeia and Ryze should remain at the highest value. also Tryndamere lane harass is getting a fairly large buff right now due to the lack of ADR-Scaling? if you wanted to buff trynd and YI AND MANA FLOW, you shouldve nerfed MORELLOS. morellos is too cost effective in comparision to liandrys. (players may not need more pen if they have a higher unit of chances to damage a target while in the lane phase. and area where trynd and yi should be defined by but lack presence do to the heal reduction, which affects the game at every levels.) and morellos will reduce the healing of tanks while giving you 50% of your late game cd.

So, to be clear: You are advocating fewer champions being prominent / viable choices in game; and pre-defined in game decisions for items.

Please tell me this assessment is wrong. I get the complaints about item 3165 , but the rest I just can't get behind.
