I don't think silence should stop physical abilities.

There i said it. I think it's silly that i can't swing a sword or an axe harder because of a silence.

Take any physical AD person, Garen, Dar, Yas, whatever the case be. Oh dear oh my i got silenced, i can't swing my sword harder now xD i just don't get that. Didn't know silence was in the same category as physical movement v...v.

I mean WoW even has it where silences don't do anything to physical abilities, because it just makes sense xD. Most games have it that way actually now that i think of it.

Think perhaps with the amount of cc in the game, it might be a smart move to maybe tune it up and do some minor reworks to how some forms of cc work against certain "classes". EX: Silences can't stop you from doing a physical ability, like twirling your axe, and swinging your sword a little harder...

Just an idear, would help immersion and tune down frustrating amounts of cc that doesn't make any sense at all.

Amd what? disarm shoudn't prevent you from getting smacked in the face with a fire ball. Or lee sin should be immune to blinds. Oh I got it Creatures like Galio and zac should be immune to poisons.

This game isn't about making cc and attacks work differently for different champions based on what they are. Otherwise there would be so many different champion specific counters.

I do Kendo in my free time and you are yelling alot while swinging your sword. No yelling, no harder swing. Accept It!

Would be confusing and hard to keep track of. Oh and would this also mean that disarms don't stop mages or autos that aren't performed with a weapon? That Disarms stop physical abilites? It just gets messy if you go too deep, even if it makes more sense

If physics was introduced to League of Legends:

  • Brand can no longer walk in river.
  • Water-type abilities instantly kill Brand.
  • Nami would deal friendly-fire when attempting to heal Brand.
  • Lee Sin Q cannot change directions mid-flight.
  • Lee Sin would be immune to: Teemo's Q, Cassiopeia's R, Ahri's E, Nocturne's R, Graves' W, etc.
  • Lee Sin would no longer need wards, and anyone dumb enough to attempt to play him would be staring at a black screen all game.
  • Malphite and Galio are immune to Cassiopeia's R and his ultimate would be useless because a hunk of rock that huge would not be able to launch himself at that speed, or even move for that matter.
  • Trundle cannot use his ice pillar because it's impossible to summon one from nothing. If he was able to erect the ice pillar, instead of slowing, it would provide a movement speed boost to all in the area because it's ice. You slip on ice if you didn't know.
  • Anyone that has a form of attack using bullets, arrows, spears and such would at one point in the game be unable to attack because they would run out of ammunition.
  • Vladimir would be useless because no one can physically control blood the way he does.
  • If Vladimir could somehow control blood, he would likely die if he uses his Q. (Blood transfusions with wrong blood types are lethal.)
  • Blitzcrank would run out of whatever fuel used to run him mid-game and would power off in the corner somewhere. 4 v 5.
  • Anyone that uses an ability that throws something would then have to go pick it up. Ex: Zed Q.
  • Yasuo would periodically have to perform checks on his katana to ensure there are no cracks and to sharpen the blade. The same goes for all champions that wield a blade.
  • Yasuo's wind abilities would be converted to passing gas.
  • The best Annie could be is a little girl with matches.
  • Amumu would be dead at 0:00 because mummies can't move.
  • Yorick would be arrested for grave-digging.
  • Zyra would throw flowers.
  • Teemo would be unable to move as fast as he does on those midget legs.
  • Kha'Zix would be tiny.
  • No such thing as (B), the fountain does not heal you, and minions do not give gold. (Seriously, no one gives them allowance.)
  • Ekko would just be a huge Back to the Future enthusiast.
  • Ziggs would be blown up by the bomb on his back.
  • Anivia would have to land at some point land because she can't fly forever.
  • Auto-attacks no longer follow targets like homing missiles and can actually miss.
  • Gragus would still be fat...except now he can't even move.
