Wild feels extremely bad after the AS scaling change, despite the compensation buff

I'm pretty sure it came out to be an overall nerf to an otherwise pretty balanced synergy.

Pre-patch: 1.0 * 35% = 0.35 AS bonus Post-patch: (0.55 to 0.7) * 40% = 0.22 to 0.28 AS bonus (0.55 is the lowest Wild champ AS while 0.7 is the highest)

While yeah this is a buff to specifically Fiora, Kayle and Yasuo w/ Wild; and a neutral change to 0.85 AS champs; it's a nerf to everyone else under 0.85 AS (which all the Wild members themselves just so happen to be).

I don't understand it, but can confirm that Wild feels bad, worse than before the patch. You could skip it (or build out of it) for Shapeshifter builds and get better synergies. Elise, Shyvana, Swain, Aurelion if you're lucky...

Yeah Wild is completely slaughtered.

Before the changes it was mediocre early, sucked mid and was amazing late. Now... It sucks early, mid and lategame.

No point in ever going for this comp anymore.

Nida's still good, Gnar's still good. Anything else is garbage you dont want to ever see in your final comp.

The AS change in general is... not terrible, but I dont like it. In an enviroment where you can put nearly every item on neraly every champion for similar effects AS being now so wiredly gutted is something I dont really understand.
