I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

But they gained a Vlanitak. That has to count for something.

So, I think Lucian is going to lose some popularity in pro play soon (or would have even if the S4 changes weren't about to bulldoze the meta anyways). Not that he isn't strong, but at nearly 100% Pick/Ban status I think Lucian teams seem to be allowing more comebacks than any other AD Carry.

He still seems excellent as a choice for poke comps (although Cait is also very strong there), and in Double AD fastpush comps, perhaps also could fit into a comp with more late-game oriented solo lanes. However, his lane-bullying is minimized for pro play, and The Culling seems to either do no damage or miss completely after 15, 20 minutes. He doesn't seem to be filling the Corki position that so many teams seem to want him to, definately need to know him if you are a pro AD, but he is not a pick that you can shoehorn into every comp like teams seem to be doing.

on a scale of zed to evelynn how hard is shyvana going to get nerfed, when is it going to happen, and will riven get similar treatment

and why is renekton still untouched


If it isn't obvious to Riot that Riven and Renekton are bullshit, the odds of Shy getting a nerf is SLIM.

But seriously, without the QQ, some kits are stupid strong by nature. Riv and Renek are just strong by nature and hard to balance while Shy... well... it seems like Shy is meta dependent because this is the first we've seen from her in a while.


I know that Phreak had mentioned this once or twice before during his streams, but champions with no energy/MP requirement for their skills are always hard to balance because certain items exist in the game (CDR) that make the "first reaction nerfs" of longer CDs sort of negated. And altering the damage the skills do runs the risk of over-nerfing them to being unplayable.

To me, the reason why Riven picked up in popularity again was partly due to Faker taking her mid vs. Zed and the uneducated masses going "omg Faker's a god," people remembering that she's a high mobility bruiser with a scaling AD shield and a decent AoE ult for team fights, and team comps shifting away from the pick/assassin meta to more of a teamfight comp, which is where most bruiser champs (ie., Rene, Nasus, Shyv) shine.

Lot of pro players are really bad at Lucian, they're just playing him because he's supposed to be good. They do alright because of their natural mechanics, but they play the character wrong and it's pretty silly to watch sometimes.

A lot of assassins have immediate blinks or near instant gap close that does damage when it gets to the target.

Riven is what Riot likes to consider a "light fighter." A hybrid of assassin and bruiser.

She can't reach you from 700 range like Talon or 900 like Kha'Zix, she "only" has 325 + 260 = 585 range on a EQ to get in stun range (she'll waste one passive stack if she ulted first, but she doesn't need any to 100-0 squishies, mindless RWQQQR is enough for most of the game as soon as she has half an item's worth of AD).

She's still faster bootless than a good chunk of champions with t2 boots just by spamming Q and E on cooldown.
Remember when Talon's problem was that "he deals too much AoE damage"? Even taking his max rank E into account and ignoring her ult's bonus, Riven has more AoE damage/ratio with her skills than Talon's single target damage (although his Q's total AD ratio means that he pulls ahead... till you add her ult bonus).

Note how I said "skills", not "kit". Now add the passive.
Also AD scaling shield.
Also AD steroid on her passive working with lifesteal.
Also 2 AoE hard cc.
And she doesn't need vision for any of her skills.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.
