The changes could be really good, especially since Olaf is a secret tip already. Olaf's passive and W can not remotely compare his ult's current abuse cases. To explain, assume you're a Malzahar with 400 AP, Sorc Boots, MPen Marks, and Void Staff+Mastery for % Penetration. Your Malefic Visions does 640 damage over 4 seconds, pretty nasty. How much damage do you think Olaf will take if he has 150 MR before penetration? The answer: 77, or 61 if he also has the Indomitable mastery. That is why the ult is being changed, it is absolutely ridiculous against period damage. If Olaf's W and Passive were capable of making up for the loss of that mitigation they'd be getting nerfed as well. Edit: This is incidentally also why Malzahar and Swain are so good against Poppy. Because all of their damage is in tiny increments it largely bypasses her passive.
"guys let me pick olaf to counter their malz"
"omfg fucking noob pick ap" "fucking scrubs everywhere plz dodge" "pick ap or i afk" "ok i troll hard random"
solo queue people > olaf
no one seems to be talking about the fizz buffs ;o his spells are already really cheap, now they are reducing the cost of his ult.

Are you going to pick olaf just because of how his ult works with damage reduction? Just with ult negating Malz's? Are you going to go vs Malz mid, putting someone else AP top who might be able to play matchups properly if they managed to pick someone viable top?
Malz isn't to be underestimated either.

Given that break even points are roughly around ~300 damage and lategame most spells will be doing 300 dmg and ADs will be critting every other hit it doesn't seem like a nerf in general. Against period damage and earlier on it's definitely a big nerf, but I'm not convinced that it's an overall nerf. Then again I'm ignoring resist penetration so I could be completely off.
I feel that they're probably just trying to make it more obvious as to what it does?

Noo! Teemo buffs. I was always afraid that this day would come

If it doesn't help where he needs it, they'll adjust the numbers. That's how test realms work.
Malz isn't to be underestimated either. Malz is pretty bad right now. I suppose there are a handful of people who don't recognize he can do big damage in ideal scenarios by virtue of not having seen him in awhile, but overall he's just in a really bad place.

no, im just saying that the kind of numbers olaf can take from malz and be k is something that most people probably have no idea about, because people never let anyone do anything.

Do you have the Diablo 3 Beta? I realize that's a weird question, but here's what happened to me the other day.
I reinstalled the Diablo 3 Beta because of an error. I forgot to disable P2P transfer in the launcher afterward so I had all sorts of disconnect issues in D3 until I did. I later played LoL and periodically my ping would go crazy and my entire internet would die briefly. The problem was fixed when I restarted my computer.
It's a long shot, but are you playing Diablo 3 before you play LoL without a system restart?

I know of somebody having a good connection and severe lag spikes in LoL, to the point of seeing people run to him, then we hear "Well, I'm dead, lag" and 2 seconds later it happens. He has almost anything on his computer tho (Skype, LoL, and that's about it, dual boot only for LoL).

man, that being featured thing sure draws in numbers to your stream.

You owned that Kennen so hard ^^

If you go to 150 armor/MR, the breakeven rises to something like 500 damage.

Your last hits were pretty good. Some intense duels with that Kennen as well.

Am I the only one who thinks Shen isn't as amazing as people think he is? Maybe I just haven't played enough games against decent shens...
|
As with any champion who gets buffed there's going to be a lot of people playing him just because he wasn't banned, or because he's OP. That doesn't mean they know how to play him.
Also, some counters are beginning to surface.
