+ Show Spoiler [Biggest Nerf] + Probably to Trynd. Riot just took a shit on his lane sustain. Now it really time for the try and true Tryndameres to shine. Late game hasn't changed at all for him, he's still a godly carry. But now you have to think about trading attacks in lane, instead of "herp derp Q, lol harassing me bro?" + Show Spoiler [Biggest Buff] + | ||

Why couldn't they have just made the mana cost 22 flat at all ranks, instead of having scaling mana cost? I'm wondering about this too. Gonna go ask Zileas. | ||

Sorry Skarner players (myself included), you can't spam Q 24/7 in jungle anymore to clear camps at mach 3 speed. Jax is a remake, not really a buff. He's a totally new champion. Passive and 2 abilities changed, that's over half his kit. | ||

Nunu's jungle kit is still primarily centered around counterjungling. The speed at which he autoattacks a camp to death is only pretty minutely relevant. Small camp counterjungling isn't as damaging as it used to be. Unless that changes, Nunu isn't going to be coming back into his prime anytime soon.

What Riven usually does in lane is that she would E/Q to you, W, maybe AA and then just QQ away. Her shield absorb any kind of harass, her stun slow you down and you cannot catch her to do much damage. Now if she has to max Q to do damage then it means you get to fight back, especially with regen nerf. It is a buff late game technically but it is definitely an early game nerf. About skarner, I do not play him but it seems like the biggest to me. Thanks for telling me that it might not be too bad though. Jax's numbers just look insane to me, I have to test it out but he looks perma ban material, that or I am knee-jerking right now. | ||

His E is now much shittier. 2 seconds of invulnerability to autoattacks is nice, but a constant 30%+ damage reduction from all autos is much much better. His passive is shittier; 'nuff said (altho before it was admittedly on the strong side). His ulti is less useful imo because while it gives him huge damage boost, Jax really benefited from the survivability his ultimate active used to give. Won't know til I play him tho. | ||

Why don't I know how to play Riven... zzz On January 17 2012 12:46 jtype wrote: That Vayne nerf seems a bit harsh.. and odd.. Not that she didn't need fixing, but still.. Vayne nerf feels like a nerf towards tournament players. Not much much everyday play. Just imo. | ||

Doesn't counter strike only provide 18% dodge chance? Or are you counting masteries and runes too with boots. | ||
