Glacial is absolutely ridiculous

Rod2g··26 votes·11,295 views

I'm really starting to get tired of :

Glacial + Ashe + 2 rage blades, or hell, even one, or another long range given glacial.

I dont even get to -play- in end game. My whole team is just surpassed majority of the entire fight.

I cannot be the only one feeling the absoute imbalance of a comp that has no items that give tenacity or some kind of comp that fights against looping glacial stuns. Bad enough if they get silences or weapon breaks. I understand its beta, but you have got to be kidding me when anyone play tested this idea.

they playtest everything and ignore feedback. If it doesnt increase money then they don't care. because they are scum. just look at how they sell loot boxes instead of individual legends.

They could change glacial to make it so glacial stun isn't on hit Instead, every second a glacial has a 20/30/40% chance of freezing (for 1.5 seconds) on their next auto

Exactly, literally every loss of mine is vs Glacial, it's so unbalanced and ruins the game

Nothing like sitting there and watching a loss that you can do nothing about. Oh you have a good team lineup? Doesn't matter. Good items? Nope. You are higher level with more star levels? So? I have glacial.

I think Glacial is strong. Though Void Assassin is the one that's just absolutely ridiculous if I'm being honest haha

I think thee best way to " fix " glacial is reduce % chance of stun if lower star rating or make it so each champ can only be stunned every few seconds so there isn't perma stun any more.

We really have a post on this? Yes it is strong but so are other comps like void assassins. I would like to see some game histories before we go crazy here. This better not be a case where people never change their comp and wonder why they die to the same thing over and over. Game histories should have gone live like 5 patches ago.

I wish they would just make it an anti attack speed comp, glacial already has enough hard cc in its ults without adding their rng stun to the equation.

Are you unironically trying to convince me Glacial + Ashe is actually strong? Because her passive is nearly the same and it's a huge waste of a rune.

Edit: OK IT WAS 3 AM WHEN I READ THIS, I NOW SEE MY MISTAKES

Isnt glacial really hard to build due to having almost no dps champs accept ashe for the build? They also have no cost 1 champs so makes it hard to prepare for them. So id think the tradeoff for a broken lategame is alright.

they need a class to counter cc like hextech does items

theyre not that bad just need a good frontline to tank and a backline to carry since glacials are just CC they lack damage kinda why its hard to see a full glaical comp win

I honestly find yordles way worse.. the dodging on top of high damage and CC with poppy kennen and gnar

Try running a comp with Jinx near the back, with a strong Armor based front line. Add things like Luden's/Red buffs/Morellos. Give Jinx a Runaan's so that you increase the probability of her getting an early excited. Once you kill 1-2 of the front line Glacials, their entire comp will fall apart, because Jinx will just start shredding their entire team before she has to even worry about being stunned.

Ashe alone isn't scary. It's when you waste too much time taking apart the front line.

I lost the game once. You know why? Once my fully built and leveled up carry got full mana, he got stunned. And Remained stunned for whole fight (i ran bruiser comp so it lasted for like 10-15 seconds). I refuse to believe this is working as intended. This is ridiculous. Add tenacity to the game that increases each time you are cc-d (hushed, swordbroken, STUNNED, frozen, etc). Add cooldown for glacials so they can't chain stuns (I AM LOOKING AT YOU GUINSO ASHE)

You are absolutely right. Glacial is just stupid. No items or shitty items on completely wrong champions? No problem!

Just to prove it, my wife did a round with all glacials and put ridiculous items on each hero and was 2nd overall.

Stun in general is ridiculous in tft. Rounds are fast paced which usually last like what 10 seconds? Yet stuns last for like 2 seconds and with shit like glacial and lissandra it's getting repeated ending up seeing your champ doing 0 dmg due to perma stun

I don't really think glacial is overpowered. The issue is that it's just really unfun to play against.
