Honestly I'm thinking press R to win comps. Something like Thresh amumu morg. Amumu/Thresh initiate with their Q's, following up with R, and thresh brings morg into the middle of the enemy team. | ||

The R nerf might hit hardest. We'll have to see how fast Q slow fades to know how bad it is. At least they're not nerfing E. Olaf was a little bit too strong in my opinion, but this might be too much. And if they nerf Olaf, they should nerf Shen. | ||

The W cd nerf on the other hand is pretty huge. Its downtime assuming max CDR goes from 1.2s to 3.6s, or uptime dropping from 83% to 62%. | ||

Arpen being moved to his active hurts, but when he's actually fighting you he'll have his ulti up anyways and in lane he's either harassing with true damage or farming a 1v2 lane with long range axes. Personally i think the Q+W nerfs hurt a bit more. | ||

Riot really wants junglers to build Spirit Stone items. 100g off the cost of all of them, and another 300g off the cost of Spectral Wraith. Wouldn't be surprised to see some mid champions build Wraith at this point. The value of the AP and Mp5 alone is ~1700g. 20% Spell Vamp and 10% CDR are definitely worth more than 300g. | ||

His quotes and voice-over, and general ingame sounds are pretty good. Too bad he looks goofy rather than creepy when he glides with his hand reaching out.  The sound aspect is nifty. | ||

It's clear from the updated lantern particle that this was recorded after they changed the functionality. My best guess is you simply can't hit two walls simultaneously, but if you're a derp and run into another wall you'll get hit again. If they've goofed then you can actually nail someone with two wall with relatively ease. One of the points of the pentagon is always directly behind Thresh, so if you face directly away from your opponent you can drop the point right on top of them. With its high base damage and AP scaling, you can really ruin a squishy's day (but again, only if Riot's goofed). Too me it looks like you can go through multiple walls but it just resests the effect, it doesn't add if you hit two wall in a corner for example. | ||

You might be correct. The tooltip reads "A champion cannot be afflicted by multiple walls." but that could simply mean you can't stack the slows from two wall fragments. It wouldn't be the first awkward tooltip we've seen from Riot. On January 24 2013 08:04 ZERG_RUSSIAN wrote: Is it me or does that shaco change feel like a massive buff to his early game? The Two-Shiv change is relative to the previous PBE patch. This is what's on Live: Passive: Shaco's attacks poison his targets, reducing their movement speed for 2 seconds. It also gives affected non-champion units a chance to miss their attacks.
So no, it's still a nerf compared to live. | ||

The current way to play her is to max W which makes her unique from other ADs who sit back and deal damage without having to worry about dying if they go in. People already can and do max E if they never want to jump in and just want to trade every few seconds. And Q has always been good. If they give you the option to max Q or E instead of W, then most people will still max E and wonder why that bonus 40 damage isn't suddenly making them a mid game beast. Not having AD ratios was always unique about Tristana. She didn't get Graves' free 200-300 AoE damage just from building an IE or BT for the mid game, and her base damages didn't really compensate, but come late game, in S2 with multiple PD's of movespeed, I got tons of quadras as Stana just by jumping out of dives and jumping back in and killing everything. Riot should lower the mana cost of her W. She'll be fine with these buffs instead but it's not the right buff. On January 24 2013 07:48 plasmidghost wrote: Riot's testing out a LoL Mac client now.
