Ah, ok thanks. I noticed people building Triforce more. I certainly don't mind the item being used again, but yeah, Corki is strong as hell. More than once my team and I have gone for clean up in a skirmish only for corki to come in and make us all cry.

The 1 item timing with triforce on corki makes him such a monster. You add a sorc boot on top and his burst in the early-mid game (since you can get a trifroce by like 15-16 minutes now) is huge.

That raises an interesting question:

What is the earliest Triforce timing we will see at Worlds?

I would have said sub-10 minutes if Royal was in groups, but otherwise I dunno.


a "good" but not Crazy RoA+Tear timing (100g cheaper) is 14m so if you run a Corki mid and manage a fb I could see 10-11m



What? If you get a FB you can probably get a 14 min RoA, but not RoA+tear. My timing on kassadin is usually 18-20 min.


kassadin RoA timing is about as irrelevant as it gets when comparing to ADC farm


After 14 min, you'll have like 140 cs if you hit everything. With a FB that's enough to net you roa+tear naked without boots. Now when was the last time that happened?


EDIT: Using Kassadin was indeed a stupid choice. But even when i play Anivia and i get something like FB i'm only sitting on Boots1+RoA after 14 min or so.

LoveLin plays like he's got his whole team behind him even if he doesn't. Don't know how you play against someone with testicles that big

He did have someone behind him, lol.

Old S2 meta. The holy Trinity of ADCs.

That being said, I disagree. It's at best an even matchup, dependent on supports.

You also said that the Triforce change in 3.10a wouldn't be a big deal.

And you max E and stack AS after Triforce so your E is always up and gives you 4s cd triforce procs in-between your other spells! We're onto something.

Patch 3.7:

Confirmed Riot only nerfs things.


degree is highly relevant here, Ryze nerfs are probly worth 3 of those buffs.


I'm not going to say that the Ryze nerf wasn't big, or that Dade wasn't possibly trolling with it yesterday.

But realistically, Ryze wasn't first pick/ban material before the nerf, and is still actually picked now (even if it might be a stupid idea.) It's not like the Olaf nerf where he immediately went from being first pick material and played in every single solo queue game to no one ever playing him again. I think we can all agree the Olaf nerf was overboard.

If Ryze is being picked as a poor choice in Worlds, he's viable in Solo Queue still.

Compare that to some of the buffs in the 3 patches I listed, such as the Triforce buff, or the Spirit Visage buff, or the Nunu jungle buff, that launched these three things straight into always used all the time when they first came out. Remember how many picks and bans Yi was getting in solo queue when he first got buffed? And how they had to nerf him again immediately after?

Realistically, I think Riots buff/nerf ratios are fairly 50/50, or at most like 60% nerf 40% buff. The issue is people notice nerfs more than buffs and tend to be more upset about nerfs than buffs, so even if it's 60/40, it looks like 80/20 unless you actually sit back and examine it objectively.

Eh, Ryze was getting picked a lot before the nerfs. When teams sent him Top he would just shit on most melee champions. If not for Dade I wouldn't have been surprised if Ryze had a 0% pick rate at Worlds. Ryze is still viable if he gets fed, but even in soloq his laning phase is hell now. He didn't quite get Olaf'd, but Riot still nerfed him hard. Of course It's easy for these nerfs to overshadow things like mana cost reductions on Malz

Also, as a disclaimer, when I looked up those 3 patches I was in the middle of a solo queue game, so I may have totally fucked it up and those numbers may be completely wrong ha!

A big part of noticing nerfs vs buffs too is that nerfs typically hit champions you see all the time, while buffs typically hit champions you don't see. So you notice the nerfs more.

Unless it's something huge like jungle Nunu buffs, then everybody goes nutso.
