Changing Muramana to deal physical makes it a lot more appealing on the people who would buy it the most. Although I dunno if you'd buy it on Ryze anymore now.

i like thresh, his kit is so creative. i don't even play him but it's fun to play against him, even.

it's kinda funny how riot was like "wahhhhh we don't want to make support champions" and they release nami specifically as support and she's underwhelming, then bam here comes thresh with and he's super strong..

Anyways, yay random Kayle nerf and Nunu buff.

Some of these changes make little sense to me, but occasionally Riot surprises.

Didn't they design him as a support, though?

Just a quick question, does sivir's W proc it on each target? If so, does it chunk 3% mana PER target? or just per cast? Might be pretty good on her.

Oh, also would it work with corki's rockets as well?

i always thought they just designed him with a cool kit and it turned out that he's good at support

hooks are hooks
lantern is really unique
flay is a standard displace (like say, draven)
passive is a steroid
semi-tanky stats

in the meantime, nami's kit just screams support. and nothing else.

passive helps other people move faster
aqua prison aoe is shitty and can't clear waves, only designed to hit other heroes
ebb and flow is a funky bounce heal with terrible AP scaling and you can't use the bounce mechanic in a solo lane (or jungle)
blessing also has terrible AP scaling and seems more designed to help others as opposed to yourself

I like thresh a lot because his skillcap seems super high. Like OGN Thresh or Edward thresh is like a completely different champion in a way that I have not seen in even top tier mid lane play
it just seems funny to compare the 2 supports that are released based on kit

Akali was at 50% win rate in solo queue and irrelevant to competitive play better nerf her.

Olaf was 49-48, and he got nerfed to karma level. He was already mediocre in soloq, and went from mediocre to basically worthless.

Lets not twist the facts pre nerf olaf was retarded. They just nerfed every single peice of his kit as opposed to touching it up. Som
