from the great minds that brought you Kayle Revamp:

Poppy's late game burst damage is really out of line at the moment, but she can easily get shut down by a strong opposing lane. We're looking to normalize these a bit by strengthening her early game but weakening her late game.

I think having champions that are super good in the late game but pretty weak in the early game is actually a good thing. We have champions that are the opposite (good early, meh late) so why should we not have these as well?

Yeah Poppy is insane late game, able to kill just about anything within the duration of her ult (sometimes two people) but it's not horribly difficult to prevent her from doing that.

The nasus veigar remake was targeted at their perpetual scaling q's. I was more referring to the whole late game insane burst weak early game thing

Nah pretty sure this one is to balance her in Dominion. Pretty sure Poppy es #1 on that map if there are any walls. Confirm/deny Moonbear/Daniel?

Chauster can play a mean ad carry, and Ele can play a fairly decent ap carry. Stick Kobe and have saint and hs switch up tanky dps and support and they will be fine.

I dont really know why people assume elementz is the big problem on clg.

Can't play support. Not nearly as good as the other AP carry players (Salce, Regi, Pobelter).

After I saw Elementz play Annie in CLG, I'm pretty sure I know why people would assume that.

HSGG support is awful, it's going to be Chauster on support if they want a decent player there, and then we're left with... left with what? If HSGG or saint support, they're going to do awful, Kobe and HSGG can play AP carry somewhat, but really... without Jiji CLG is going to get crushed by even RS. They can't afford to lose Jiji, anyone else would be okay.

Chauster and Saint were saying on stream 2 days ago that they need to find a 5th for WCG because Kobe has been inactive. I assume that problem would carry over to MLG if jiji isn't going.

You guys really don't keep up with CLG very well.

Elementz is the support player now, Chauster is AD, HotshotGG is some kind of solo, SV jungles. They used Salce as AP and Jiji as AD during practice games for that thing coming up (ESL?). They could use do the same thing.

They can't use Salce at MLG because EG is actually in MLG (they're not at Gamescom, which is why they got Salce to sub for Chauster), meaning Salce is going to play for them.

And while they make Elementz play support, it's sort of apparent he doesn't really want to be, and is not very good at it.

This is a friendly warning to encourage you to respect the Summoner's Code and contribute to the community in a positive light.

Thanks for your understanding, and best of luck on the Fields of Justice!

The truth of the matter is that none of them play support because they're all solo queue stars who got to the top by playing carries =/

IMO, they should pick up PGB (is he on a team?) have saint jungle, chauster on AD carry, hotshot and elementz solo.

They're not mutually exclusive. In fact, both TheOddOne and Jatt get Wit's on Phoenix Udyr but neither rush it, because it's impractical. What item are you starting with that's a Wit's End part? How are you getting to bluepill with Recurve money on your first few clears without some luck in getting good ganks? Wriggle's and its parts keep your early game money spent and pay back in the improved jungle speed/sustainability. It's not comparable to or replaceable by Wit's End in any way.


wriggles really doesn't help pheonix udyr much in any way at all, if you need sustain you can just buy a philo and he does perfectly well vs majors creeps without it
