Edit: ya you got confused on that one, early september: One thing to bear in mind though is that this is a really early preview - this champ's quite a way off. For those wondering this is also a different champion to the one CertainlyT's mentioned he's working on that's a couple of champion releases away. Jinx is Gypsylord's champion, so CertainlyT's is the next one, and then it can be Ao Shin. | ||

Or I guess maybe he's not talking about Ao Shin, I assumed he was. PERHAPS I AM BULLSHITTING YOU TL, THIS IS NOT UNUSUAL | ||

It's weird that they didn't seem too sure about his appearance till a bit before, or didn't have a fixed kit for him yet, considering it wasn't that long ago, then. Or they just straight-up lied about that but I wouldn't see the point over being elusive.

Played 2 games of Lissandra support in normals yesterday, was pretty fun. Great if you play very Chinese meta, 5 man roam for kills, it's fucking glorious. | ||

They could even amp up the ult's AS buff by a flat 20% at all levels and her dps would still be so much weaker than now. Supposedly this was done to give Riot leeway in shifting more power to Ricochet. At the moment this puts Sivir's numbers way under what they should be (at level 6 Ricochet's steroid barely beats out the base attack speed of carries like Ashe or Tristana). Riot seems to be aware the numbers are too low, so they're looking at increasing the Attack Speed on her ultimate and scaling the damage on Ricochet with ranks. They explicitly want Sivir to be a CDR focused carry rather than an AS/Crit focused carry. I'm not sure the itemization exists for that at the moment, but it's a interesting goal. | ||

I mean, it's like Lucian: sure he'd work super well with CDR, but there isn't any itemisation for it, and they didn't butcher his straight-up dps for it. Sivir having the worst AS of every marksman (pre-6, and barring Jinx's Fishbones case which makes up for it with extra range, damage and splash) and a pretty poor auto animation also probably makes her laning even worse versus any lane with ranged harass to drop on her. Since her only way of extending her range is her Q which isn't great for farming (and puts her oom after 3 uses) I don't quite see this iteration playing decently from behind. Add to that that for some reason Riot seem particularly attached to their claim that Sivir has amongst her unique niches being a pusher, despite all the champions doing better (either because they nuke just as well as her, or not quite as well but with good enough range to be able to freely auto to finish the job, or because they can somewhat keep up with her and then totally overtake her once she runs herself oom), and I'm pretty skeptic about her laning as long as you don't plan on trading with her away from your creep wave. It boggles my mind that they still claim that, and since they don't seem to have any incentive to lie about it then they probably genuinely believes it, which boggles my mind even more. I mean, I understand how the current kit can be tweaked with numbers and stuff to give her decent single-target dps while dishing out some AoE as well, but the current iteration is full of holes that simple math can point out and they were still pretty sure of their stuff when they put her out on PBE. | ||

I would even consider her weak at the moment. | ||
