He's going to go from over played as hell to no one ever picking him in competitive play. Oh wow. Serious? What is the point of using W then? | ||

I like the nerf, right now it's ezreal in every single game, and it's extremely tiring. Finally we will see something else now, altought I am very scared of the incoming draven wave... | ||

For the majority of time during LoL's competitive existence they were capable of doing that and winning tournaments. The realization has set in and teams are no longer streaming their scrims etc. As well, league needs teams like TSM/CLG who constantly stream. It increases fan base and gives fans something to talk about during down times. I doubt Hotshot/Doublelift have impressive reasons for not playing in the qualifier. However they still have a good chance at qualifying. I know members of TSM split ways after the s2 finals, some went home etc. | ||

Corki's Q used to blind, that got removed and then people thought he wouldn't be viable? chill guys, ezreal is broken as fuck and I still think after this w removal he'll still be at the very least a viable ad carry. | ||

Ez's w has had a very sad, sad life and has always seemed to be the most problematic part of him in terms of balance; they should just shoot the thing and get it over with instead of continually chopping its legs off. Yeah, I think they should just give him a new W. With this change there's really no point to picking him. Just pick Corki every game if you want a safe laner with a strong mid game.

It'll be useful for taking monsters and towers. Won't be that useful in too many team fights considering 3/5s of your team won't be using it since W doesn't effect Ez. I guess if you hit your jungler and top laner with it then it might help out some. But W is going to go back to the last spell you max. In fact this change will probably cause Ez players to go back to not even getting a single point in W until level 12. edit: Corki dipped in popularity pretty fucking hard after his nerf. It wasn't just his blind that got removed either literally every single one of his spells got nerfed. He only started seeing an increase in play after changes to his E. | ||

I don't like these changes. Why can't they just revert back to the old Ezreal from 10 months ago? EDIT: I actually thought they were for sure going to change Graves and Ezreal's movement speed down to 300. 305 speed + gapcloser = too stronk. With the W changes, I guess Ezreal will always max Q first and add points in W at the end. | ||

Corki is probably my best AD and I can tell you that his e change has absolutely nothing to do with why he's strong lol | ||

When Corki Q's blind got removed people were saying basically the same things about Corki that people are saying about Ez now. The patch that nerfed Corki's Q also hit his ulti and E damage pretty hard. So yes, people did think he was no longer viable, which obviously ended up being wrong. Although to be fair the other AD carries were a bit stronger back then too.

But yea, I agree with you in that Corki became popular again not cause his E, but because they reverted the damage nerf on his Q, which let him poke in lane harder. Also because all the other popular AD carries at that time got subsequently nerfed. People also realized that Corki is still a monster even without OP Q blind. IMO, his E getting changed and his popularity increasing were more coincidental than anything. | ||

I would actually be okay with Riot buffing a lot of champions. Only reason Ezreal is OP king of bot lane is because they've nerfed literally every other AD carry. | ||

I'm not sure if it would be a buff tbh. Ezreal 10 months ago had a stronger W in terms of damage and hitbox, but his mana costs were extremely prohibitive. The biggest reason why Ezreal became popular in the first place was because Riot decreased his W mana costs to the point where you could actually level/use W in lane and not go oom extremely fast. His W mana cost used to be 70-110 mana compared to the 50-90 mana now. | ||

Pretty sure 10 months ago Ezreal had higher mana cost on his Q, W, and R than what they are now. W did more damage but (imo) minimal. I can't comment on the W width. I probably wouldn't call it a buff. Anyway, it's an interesting thought of what would have happened if Ezreal was reverted to that state. Would people still find him OP or not? Was Ezreal perceived to be weak back then because he was actually weak, or was it because no one cared to play him? | ||
