.... really?

because seeing as graves is a dastardly cowboy and all, i would contend that it is 100% a reference to the classic COWBOY MOVIES that it is named after
y'all nerds need to get out and watch a (great) movie sometime

I love how they nerfed the gunblade because:
It was too good on Akali. It was too good in dominion.
When they could easily just nerf Akali and replace it with a different item in dominion (like the did for the Doran's items --> prospector items etc)

The way I see it, the sustain nerfs don't hurt her as much as she's supposed to be played (quoting scarra here) as a major clean-up champ. The 20 AD, on the other side, take out a good chunk of Q and R damage. Not so worried about the R to be honest, it's at a place right now where you'll primarily use it to tag assists for Voracity or if you are 100% sure your sequence is going to be able to catch someone off guard, in which case I think it should still be good enough. But that Q is, obviously especially in combination with Voracity, so so vital for her to be strong right now... IDK.
Opinions?
full AP is better than any gunblade build even before the nerf. rylai -> deathcap ->lich bane -> void staff gogogo

When they could easily just nerf Akali and replace it with a different item in dominion (like the did for the Doran's items --> prospector items etc) Gunblade was too strong anyways. Your suggestion would just fix the symptoms, but not the cause. Which would lead to more and more problems in the future. They possibly nerfed Gunblade a bit too much, but it's still decently efficient. They definitely aren't too far off the mark now.
If some champs suffer a lot from the Gunblade nerf, it only means that those champs were problematic anyways - they only worked with Gunblade. Give those champs some carefull buffs to compensate and the game will reach a much healthier balance.

Still waiting for GP nerf that addresses what is acutally bad about him lol, although I guess the steady stream of nerfs will eventually make up for the fact that Parley can do half of just about any champs health

|
Thanks Riot for fastest patch ever. Does it mean they are sorting out the shit bugs from client?

Opinions? full AP is better than any gunblade build even before the nerf. rylai -> deathcap ->lich bane -> void staff gogogo Scarra, possibly best Kat player in the world, begs to differ. He strongly dislikes Rylai's for the most part, as it's incredibly situational. My experience supports those statements. Gunblade -> Deathcap is superior to any Rylai's builds. Reason being is that Gunblade was the one single item who offered most DPS gain for your ult and Rylai's being a 3k gold investment for 80 AP.

Saw some people rushing sorcs/guise/some AP item (revolver or NLR) for massive magic penetration (and harass damage) early on, especially on people not building resistance. Is it just too weak to transition into lategame?
|
It delays your dcap and isn't that good vs people who actually build MR, reducing 40 magicress when someone has 180 doesn't do that much, it's good in lane on champs with high base dmg on their spells though.
