Either way he looks extremely fun with his combos. * Blaze (Passive): Brand's spells light his targets ablaze, dealing 2% of their maximum Health in magic damage per second for 4 seconds.
All magic damage is reduced by MR, so that would include Brand's passive.

Singed was already secretly OP, it makes me sad that now he's going to be publicly OP

Derrrr Since the Fire totally has some other significance to the game apart from looks. But yeah it seems like this new guy is all about damage and might be fun to play with, but I really wonder how he compares to some other pure dmg casters like Veigar.
Burn the witch!
Yeah, it's obviously the fire aspect that makes people immediately compare brand to Annie >.> Based on abilities alone he is no closer to annie than he is to kennen or jarvan.
I have some trepidation when it comes to his passive. It might be REALLY op for laning if his targeted spell has any sort of decent range + cooldown.

People complain about singed being OP but I just really don't see it... he's going to lose almost all of his pushing power now and he'll deal far less dmg. Yeah he'll be unkillable but he already was so.

You'd probably have to modify the way you build him.
|
So like, previously when you see a singed with merc treads+ ghost+insanity potion up and charging towards you - you can like y'know chuck some cc and try flash/ghost the hell outta there yea? Well now you cant. Also when has singed's pushing power been based on his ult? Pushing is 98% Poison trail. In addition, I'm not sure about you, but in team fights I don't go around auto-atting ppl with my +60dmg with ult, but flinging/running around poisoning shit. So I have no idea wth you're smoking.

Singed's power comes from running into everybody, f'ing up the positioning of enemy carry, and then running out while baiting tons of enemy dmg + CC. Now that CC is less effective on him, way to go.

I imagine the best comparison is to Malzahar. Minor cc, all DPS/nuke/AoE spells and no escape/defense.

Now that CC is less effective on him, way to go. A lot of the power also comes from the fact that he clears minions insanely quickly and pushes a tower in 0.2 seconds with his ulti... with that gone his solo pushing is going to be alot weaker imo.
I guess he'll be better in teamfights but imo he's a lot more dangerous as a pusher.

wait... wait... singed needed a buff?
No longer gives attack speed or attack damage, but now gives magic resist and crowd control reduction(10%/20%/30%)

Obviously when people think of casters they think of the ones like Annie, Morgana, and Anivia that have really high amounts of CC/utility, but a lot of caster designs (particularly newer ones like Cassi and Vlad) have much less CC than that.

He clears minions just as fast without his ulti lol. The ulti doesn't make that huge of a difference in that respect. Your poison doing like, 10? if that more damage doesn't mean anything lol.

He does hit towers a lot harder with old ulti popped, i mean just standing there smacking it R added tons of damage

Also the cc reduction on his ult makes it so he can buy non-merc treads (which will probably be boots of swiftness for more speed)
|
Orrr just get merc treads and be irelia.
|
I am a little confused at the katarina nerf. Like...really?
|
I guess they're trying to make healers a bit stronger with all these counter-heal nerfs. Which makes sense as to why they nerfed Mundo a bit.
|
Why is no one talking about that Sion buff? God I fucking hate that champion. Was glad when people didn't pick him because of them having a boner for Jarvan/Renek but it looks like he's back. fuck life.
|
I may be wrong, but 1.5<2, so it would be a nerf.
|
Sion went unchanged for like two years and now they nerf the stun, lol.
No changes to irelia/jarvan, I guess they weren't "tanky dps" enough.
Also cheaper BF sword... were people not getting BF swords? Or were carries just not good enough?
