Best day ever going to be "bans have been increased from 4 to 8 to reflect the increase in champion pool"

If you're going to have 8 blatantly broken champions at least give us enough bans.

Fixed your post, no need to thank me.

Hmm, I wonder what I'd ban with 8 bans...

Alistar
Annie
GP
Fiddle
TF
Udyr
Yorick

...and probably Orianna or Cait for the last one. Cait is too easy play + dominate a lane at my Elo.

GP, TF, Yorick, Fiddle, Annie, Soraka, Taric, Orianna.

Annie, GP, Fiddle, Yorick, Akali, Orianna, TF, Udyr

And if more than 3 people knew how to play him, Lee.

I think Udyr is way too easy to completely shut down to warrant a ban. Lee Sin I feel like might secretly be overpowered but he's not played by all that many people.

Galio ultimate buffs, I am happy. As if it didn't already do well, now I actually have a chance of surviving through it.

riot is dumb
how does "ult now gives 20% more damage reduction" get followed up with "...so that will encourage galio players to build more tanky"

um wat
give him MORE free defense >> make his optimal items more AP/damage based
herp

that'd be like them saying "yeah we went ahead and gave pirate back his healing reduction, so now executioner's calling is a FANTASTIC item on him again!!" derp

anyways i'm stoked for the galio changes i hope he really comes into his own as *the* tanky AP solo top and i can rework my guide again ^_^

also where are you getting the 8 ban thing? can i get a link? i'm uber stoked

No it's just wishful thinking

Haha I'm pretty sure the 8 ban thing was just wishful thinking + a joke about how that's how Riot's going to "balance" the current state of the game.

Man, don't let 5hit hear you say that.

But yeah, galio's utillity is kinda horrible compared to say amumu or jarvan so I predict a lot more deathcaps in the near future.

edit: Riot underdoing nerfs overdoing unnessecary buffs.

-a little bit of damage on Q

No wriggles + turtle proc.

We'll see from there. Champions who have a significant bug contributing to their power generally only get the bug fixed and we go from there.

Well, its a start.

also galio

The nerf is -.1 to the AP ratio on Q. That's the ONLY change to his damage. The rest is +base stats, missile speed, etc.

In fairness the previous Wriggle fix did un-OP most of the lane heroes that relied on Wriggles. So I guess that's a start, + I don't think Udyr is that strong to begin with (obnoxious in lane, meh elsewhere).

More worried about GP etc. ~_~
