I don't get why people are so mad at Athene for getting his 1000 referrals reward? It's not like he did anything wrong and I'm pretty sure he's helped a few youtube channels grow with his together to the top thing. He got at least some new people to play this game (Me and all of my mates) and that's all that Riot wants anyway. Also, I didn't hear anyone qqing about the other new item Maw of Mal....... and I've never even heard of the guy.

Also, anyone know what they're trying to do with the Q nerf on Warwick? are they trying to force him to stay in jungle or something? His early game as lanewick is pretty bad against some matchups because of him going oom all the time. They did that with the Soraka and Lulu changes as well right (trying to force them into one role)?

They lowered the max HP% damage on his Q a little because it was a little too strong esp. against Tanks and bruisers in the late game, so they lowered the mana cost to compensate. So they buffed his early game a tiny bit more(very marginal) and nerfed his late game

People are not mad at athene for getting the reward, people are mad because athene is a douche(in my opinion atleast, and many others) and having a good item named after him is just so silly.

Wasn't the main stream delayed? I can't see how it would help much if it was. Either way I hope the tourny admins are notified.

Maw wasn't named after anyone afaik. People don't like the name of the Chalice item because regardless of the referrals, Athene was an infamous WoW troll, which is kinda irksome to some people.

WW nerfs aren't too bad. He's pretty damn strong right now after they remade his passive.

He brought loads of players over to LoL, if every douche brought over 1k players to LoL then everybody would be playing it.

Maw was named after a player, Malmortius, who streamed a lot of Poppy play -> Maw of Malmortius.

I don't know, do you really want people that follow a douche? Not to say Athene is one I don't know him personally or from his videos.

Yeah, that way riot can split up EUWest 12 more times and all the douches can have their own server.

I only played WoW until lvl 13-17 or something and have no clue who the guy is. If he refered 1000+ people to the game, that means Riot had better hold up their end of the deal, or that's going to be a potential 1000+ angry voices they don't need to deal with.

Oh my bad I thought it was lowered not increased, that means they nerfed his early and late game, way too much sustain=unmovable in lane

I was a pretty big fan of athene back when he made the funny wow videos. He is a pretty huge troll but overall he seems to have good intentions.

And considering the average LoL player I don't see have an athene fan is any different

My memory is kinda hazy but when he first made that account wasn't his girlfriend or sister in all his videos who only made videos with seducing thumbnails to attract viewers? Everyone thought he was a girl until he came out of the closet and started the #1 Paladin stuff?

People seem to fear that the douche to non-douche ratio might get even worse.

Dunno that guy at all, apart from his little stunt in SC2, where he paid some pro to get him a GM account. Judging just by my amount of knowledge, he seems to have douche-magnet qualities. But who knows...
