Unfortunately streaming for your income is not something you choose to do.
People start streaming for funsies, then it turns out they get a lot of viewers, then it becomes a decision. You don't make the decision first.
LethalFrag is a streamer I know who started streaming full time (quit day job) before he had any stable levels of viewership. Some people just have balls.
(Some other full time streamers are also just unemployed).

On the topic of Tibbers AI, did anyone else never have problems with it prior to them making him controllable with the R button? Alt+click always worked for me, then they changed it and the stupid bear is never where I want him anymore regardless of what buttons I use.

back before you could control it with R it did seem to be a lot more responsive. morde ghost is also pretty stupid

is anyone lagging on NA servers?

Why do they keep trying to turn Morg's W into a Ground-Targeted-Damage-Over-Time-Execute? That concept doesnt even make sense...

Fizz is just so FotM that he counts as 2 champs

Makes sense to me.
It has synergy with all her other abilities, and their explanation of it was spot on. They wanted to change it so snare into puddle would do more damage than puddle into snare.

It's creative! Groundbreaking so to speak...
But probably because she needs a buff, despite how much they talk up her Q as good gameplay design she's decisively outclassed and her W is the 'easiest' thing to change. And what better way to add power to a kit than %hp dmg or execute mechanics?
|
the problem isnt her lack of damage, its her high cooldowns. if morgana was released today her w wouldnt even have half the CD it does currently. compare morgana to other control orientated mages like lissandra and its just hilarious. but you cant reduce the CD on her Q because people would spend >50% of the time snared. so they either need to redesign her E or W because right now she functions more like a support than a mage.
|
Not that I'm opposed to a morgana buff, but I don't like that they want Q -> W to be stronger than W -> Q. I thought it was cool that a morg player had a choice between using W first if they were confident they could land the bind. It seems like they're buffing Morg in a way that eliminates one of the few interesting (although as far as I could tell not very impactful) gameplay decisions morgana has. iirc they did something like this before where they eliminated a decision about how to use skills on someone (Jayce I think) because it was "confusing" which I thought was silly.

In my opinion this is correct. It's not her damage, it's her DPS. Her cooldowns are super high considering how difficult it is to use her skills to their full potential with all the mobility in the game. Consider her ult. It's pretty damn hard to get both ticks off on someone, and in teamfights it's damn near impossible. Reducing the CD on her Q would cause her to become way too strong. So her W, E, (and maybe R) need to be buffed to compensate.

IDK it still seems like WQ is fine since the duration is still long, getting a free tick at the start will never really be a bad thing - especially if the target isnt full health. This honestly feels like mostly an upgrade to previous pool, since the MR debuff was often irrelevant on champions anyway.
Doesn't really seem like it will "fix" morgana though. She's still got some of the longest cooldowns of any mage.

i dont see this at all. when i play morgana i always just fire off a q and if it looks like a decent shot i put down w if its in range. theres no w or q first decision making, its always q first because w on its own feels like it has no impact.

Buffing R is too hard because then you get into the dangerous situation where ult+summoner (flash in this case, Ghost for Olaf/Singed) is super strong, but its not that great without the summoner skill. Once that happens Riot is in a situation that they never seem to be able to balance properly.
W, E changes seem easier, just the current one makes no sense.

E is hard to change because when it's overtuned it can create scenarios where enemies feel "helpless" (if you think about it's really just BKB with a damage threshold). So gameplay-wise they're very careful about keeping it at a point where you can't pop it on a bruiser or assassin, and they kill someone before the shield comes off.
So yeah, that leaves us with buffing W, lol.

just give her a free flash on e, thats what most champs have these days anyway.
