This all completely overlooks that people who were previously rolling their face on the keyboard and getting kills/victories now how to learn to actually play correctly.

When a champion gets nerfed, the win rate SHOULD plummet and then after some time go back up a bit and stabilize.

A lot of people who follow the meta may have dropped using her overnight. There's a psychological effect to it. You have to get used to last hitting with less damage and missing ults that you otherwise would have hit. She'll probably rise again in win rate over the next few weeks, but probably not up to 50%.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Yea, I think she is overnerfed for soloQ purposes. Maybe she will remain viable for competitive play.

I played her last night and it didn't feel so bad. It was weird not being to follow up every one of my Qs with my ult when I wanted to, but her burst and tankiness was still incredibly strong. She might be a little weak as of now, but you can still pick her and not have the worst time (I mean she's not Heimer level status or anything).


Heimer lvl status...

DID MY PROJECT HEIMER PROVE NOTHING TO YOU PEOPLE

Also, what craton said. People were used to doing whatever they wanted and face rolling to victory. Now they actually need to learn to play Diana.

It wasn't really an organized or overly advertised thing. Last season I took Heimer into ranked around 1900. I had 100% win rate with him for almost 20 games. It was just to prove to myself and the few people on my team that Heimer isn't useless.

Okay, fair enough. I knew he wasn't trash, all I meant was it's probably still easier to carry games with Diana than Heimer.

Meanwhile I am nice on the internet and a mean person in real life. People tend to act odd on the net. Be it the secret reality they wish they could be or just to try out something different is anyone's guess.

Lane Rengar still seems pretty good. The sustain nerf on empowered W is noticable, but it still doesn't change the fact that he gets free resists and healing. He's still a no-mana user and his laning is still flexible. I think his jungle isn't really that good anymore though. The W damage nerfs are reallly noticable in the jungle.

What do you guys think of a 2d scroller fps moba?

Awesomenauts. I don't think it's been posted on here before and it looks way more appealing to me than smite.

It's categorically weaker for solo kills. That was the intention. It's also meant to be stronger when your team has secondary sources of magic damage.


I wouldn't say categorically. Even if you're talking about bursting someone down 100-0 it can depend on the champion and their build. If you're a Lich Bane champion it's not difficult to surpass the previous DFG due to the extra magic damage available for amplification. This is, in fact, partly why Gunblade + DFG + Lich Bane is extremely powerful on Akali. Her potential magic damage during DFG's Amplification with that setup is roughly 1250 + 4.0 * AP to 1750 + 5.0 * AP depending on how many times she ults. That's enough to beat even the 30% DFG depending on the tankiness of the target. It is, however, generally true that new DFG is weaker for solo kills.

Ultimately, "it depends" is a phrase we really want hear when discussing items, because it tends to indicate there's depth to itemization decisions and usage.

What the hell, are you guys dumb? That's the most obvious troll I've seen since gtr saying he met Cris in real life and is "a geniuly a nice person." I'm dissapointed at how hard you guys woosh sometimes.
