Take away the CD? I'd take away the mana recharge. It's preposterous how sustainable people become with just blue buff. Otherwise give red buff 80% life steal please. It's only fair.
Lifesteal? LIFESTEAL?
% health regen / 5, bitch!

You're right, we should give them 20% hp regen per second, like blue buff.

Really everything blue buff does is preposterous. The problem I've been trying, and failing, to highlight is that its current power level is so throughly entwined with AP carries, jungling and the objectives of the game that fixing it is going to be like pulling threads out of a tapestry. You can't just tug the problem thread and call it a day because half of the tapestry is going to go with it and need reweaving.

I'm seriously considering just stopping this game as a few of my irl friends only played on Mac and now they can't play anymore.

Why are we ranting about blue buff when both sides each have it to balance it out? It's good that it's useful and provides another strategic objective worth fighting over. Only reason why red buff was nerfed was because they were trying to nerf ranged heroes and make melee dps more viable. If you don't want their anivia to have blue buff your team has means of taking it away from them.
Why would AD need 20% hp regen per second when they got a sustain item with a free ward ^_^

they should implement the crit chance and mspd buffs from TT into SR

Curse of the Sad Mummy, Idol of Durrand, Paranoia, Cataclysm, Finales Funkim, Crowstorm, Unstoppable Force, Summon Tibbers are all pretty epic in one way or another if you ask me. Their animations might not be as epic or w/e, I have no idea since I never played HoN, but there are still very powerful, very game changing abilities out there that just do cool things.
The old champions are really interesting in my opinion. But lately it's just been the same thing over and over. Every skill seems to be a copy or a mashup of other skills already in the game. They keep releasing champions with "combos", which in my opinion is the hardest to balance. Either the combo is too powerful and then you have op champ or the combo is too weak and you have useless champ. After jarvan it seems like ulti epicness dropped so much. Vayne's is a buff, talon's makes him disappear, leona's is just a brand w that stuns and monkey king spins.

What is this? I used to play a terrible Annie but suddenly everything feels pitch perfect. I ain't talking 1 year ago but maybe a month. I was never good with Annie.
Suddenly i am bitch slapping just about every lane i get thrown against me.
Are you truly that good movespeed quints?

Just to throw this out here again, but I have talked about Mac Client in the TL Tech Support Thread. Really busy with work this week (and slightly sick) but I will be answering related questions + posting more in-depth on weekend. As you might have noticed, my posts this week have been pretty terse.

And that's it. Riot could use some work and especially as the game is aging they need to cut back on champs, but DotA has fucking Leoric FFS. 3 Passives and a point and click stun, real champ design. I get really pissed at nostalgia driving people to irrationally dislike new shit because they have selective memory of old shit. I see your Leoric and raise you Leoric and Sven. Hey now! Sven is 1 Passive, 2 Steroids, and a point and click AOE stun! That's way moar interesting, you get to press 3 buttons instead of 1 before you become a right-click melee-bot.
I mean I could be wrong but wasnt his skills storm bolt, defensive armor aura cleave super ultimate omega attack bonus steroid?

Its Stormbolt (AoE) Warcry thingy (Movespeed buff + some other stuff) Cleave Damage Buff Ult But I haven't played Dota for a while so that's just the Sven I remember playing D:

They must have changed it. This is the version I played: http://dotabestguides.com/?p=31
his stormbolt was only 1 target too
Ironically, Leviathan is also another hero with two passives, a game changing ult, and a point/click slow that does a ton of damage

Apparently riven's Q has some weird targeting mechanics. Reminds me of trying to figure out how double-up decided what it wanted to hit :
It's a no-click cast, like lay waste. It's closer to pounce, except that it also respects cursor position if you have it locked onto a nearby target.
That is, if you are actively targetting a champion, Riven will go towards your cursor if it is hovering near an enemy, but if your cursor is nowhere near anything resembling something that makes sense, she'll just Q forward instead.
The targetting mechanics are arcane and bizarre under the hood.
|
I like it, it seems like Riot is finally doing something new and original
|
god, i hope riven ends up not being UP, she sounds cool.
|
I think most champs have really original designs. I especially like the recent ones, Orianna, Nocturne, etc
|
Yes, but I feel like Talon and Skarner weren't that original... Except Skarners ulti.
