Ok I really need to vent about this. No idea what just happened last game. Played chogath versus ap sion top. Had pretty much equal cs as him something around 55 to his 62. So he has boots and 2 dorans. I have boots and the 24mr thingie. Then I have like 4-6 stacks of feast. Sion is at no kills at this point. And I'm farming by my tower. Then sion and noc from jungle towerdive me and kill me. They do this atleast 2 times. Both times I killed noc the moment I died but the other one was at full health. So Yeah I'm on blue side and literally farming before the river bushes. Noc wasn't fed either. Holy shit they killed me in like 5 seconds.

Well they increased burst a lot with masteries and even if they nerfed the ratio by 0.9 it only decreases dmg in late game. This looks early-mid game still.

@Hynda yeah the reason to take ignite/exhaust (aka the carries seems to have been taken away and therefore there is no use for them anymore.... ghost/teleport everybody?)

"Low ELO" as in below 1500, which constitutes the vast majority of players. I'd say it's pretty smart given how much grief those guys cause when they snowball.

Same can be said for balancing stuff for diamond sc2 players, it's the vast majority of players there and below... and blizzard doesn't do that

So a quote from muffinqt on West's stream sums this whole thing quite nicely:

Has anyone jungled Fizz yet? His kit just seems tailored for jungling:

-passive reduces damage taken.
-W scales with attack speed.
-2 gap closers
-insane ult for ganks

Only thing is how to build him.

Two different games. Balancing around silver/gold leaguers breaks starcraft at the pro level. Nerfing Akali and Kassadin does not break competitive LoL, it simply changes the champion pool slightly.

Yes, they do lol. Not to the biggest extend but if a certain thing is way broken against low level players, they'll nerf it.

e.g. Xin Zhao
Made absolutely no fk sense why he got a nerf about 5+ patches ago but apparently Xin is a terror at low elo and I can kinda imagine it.

One of the problems with champions that complete destroy low Elo but are still ok at higher Elo is that it creates a stagnation in the gameplay. There is also the problem that in order to be able to learn and get better, there needs to be a way for you to be able to respond to the threat. If the answer to the threat is "rely on someone else", this is ok for higher levels of play, but creates a negative experience at lower levels of play. Of course, this means the person in question has to want to get better, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be possible for them to figure out what went wrong.

Pre-nerf Eve is the epitome of this problem. Being able to stun, do damage all while stealthed at lower levels of play causes a lot of problems. This is partially due to the fact the tutorial, while explaining concepts such as last hitting, never actually talks about stealth, wards and oracles. In a MOBA style game, there is already a large "burden of knowledge" on players to know about all the mechanics, matchups, champion details, etc. However, for a newer player, what is most important is that whatever is killing them has an obvious answer. For example: Bush + Garen = Ow, therefore don't facecheck. Other examples include Tower = Big and Scary, therefore don't fight it 1v1. The tutorial even has a small section on this. It does not however cover stealth mechanics.

There also leads to the problem where abusive strategies can eventually lead up to higher levels. Gunblade-Burst-the-carry-ASAP-Morde was one instance of this. While commonly considered a low Elo phenomenon, this was more because the consideration of "yeah but just don't fight in the creep wave" was too commonly used while glossing over many other aspects of Morde. While there is truth that lower Elo players respond sub-optimally to these problems, that does not necessarily mean that there is not an inherent problem to begin with. The current rise in Tryndamere popularity after his remake is another case where slowly a careful examination of what causes him to be a problem beyond the superficial low Elo problems suggests a much stronger power level than previously considered.

TL;DR
If people die and don't know what happened, they aren't even given the chance to learn. Also, abuse cases in lower Elo can also mask deeper problems with champions that have not been fully considered.

I have to say support Blitzcrank may become my new favorite non traditional support. Just went 4-6-36 with him and had so much fun grabbing people popping them up then ulting as their team as they rushed in to save the person i grabbed. Best was watching the garen and shyvana just wreck the other team while they tried to get away.

If I remember correctly almost all games I have seen of pro teams have her banned. I dont think her problem was a "low elo" one because from level 6 on it was impossible to escape and very hard to 1v1 her. She did incredible damage and had her growing spellvamp to fill her life back up so fast and she could go under her shroud to become invisible and recharge her q. Maybe she got nerfed too hard but to say she didnt need one doesnt seem right.

Pretty much. I thought he was fine, but whenever a Xin was on my team he'd suicide repeatedly and then troll. Xin on enemy team? No one plays carefully and he's like 15-3 before 20 minutes. Fun times.

I think its a little early to say she got nerfed to hard. The nerfs seem reasonable since her passive plus gunblade was too strong originally and even after they nerfed gunblade she was still really strong. I think that the passive nerf is a proper step by Riot. Give it a few days and lets see just how much the nerf actually changed her before declaring it too hard
