But he isn't bad at it.

He's a jack of all trades, and above average at everything. He doesn't suffer because of having so many uses. Not to mention he is the unparallelled gank support and ally saver master.

I think you found his niche.

I'm happy for that to be his niche, but the rest of his shit complicates that. If they want to keep lantern strong (which I'd encourage) other stuff needs to be weaker. Especially flay (IMO of course).

Did a TL'er just make a post about most rage inducing champs and didn't include Yorick anywhere? How far we've come.

Some good, some not so good.

In my opinion:

  • Kassadin
    - Silence change good
    - Ability slight damage reduction - I don't think this is the right way to go; Much better would be to increase mana cost on problematic abilities.
  • Ryze
    - Well I like this change, but generally the problem with ryze on mid is either he is too squishy early(this change does help) or he gets really squishy after the enemy gets to level 6++(this change doesn't help much).
    - I'll definitelly play some more games with him and see how it goes.
  • Teemo
    - Generally bad, the ratio nerf is too big
    - The problem with his shrooms is not in the damage but in lack and difficulty of getting good detection. Imo sweeping lens is problem, because it is not very good at doing this. Also I found I can easily exploit the sweep range by not putting ward into bush(bottom) but rather into river closer to dragon.
  • Tear
    - very good change
  • Doran shield
    - now efectivelly useless;you are much better now to buy armor and extra potions or hp
  • Boots of mobility
    - bad change
  • Ruby crystal
    - I like the possibility of another starting item although I'm not sure if I use it.
  • Spell thief Edge Line
    - We'll see; the damage bonus might be too imba on some heroes with good range. Rather make the Frost queen better would be maybe more appealing... Or maybe instead of bonus damage restore small portion of mana for you and ally on hit?
  • Relic Shield Line
    - Relic Shield - removing health regen very bad. I don't know about the rest needs testing..
  • Ancient Coin Line
    - Dramatic nerf early on; Ancient coin no hp regen is really bad. Still people are going to buy it because of +3 sec aoe movement speed bonus and 20% CDR
    - coin bonus 3 rather unnecessary change(= less wards less items for support)
    - Rather better change would be to the active: 3 sec -> 2.5 sec or 60s -> 90s

- It's all just treason - They bring me down with their lies - Don't know the reason - My life is fire and ice -

I feel like Ryze should/ will maybe get some competitive play soon. Just going off of what teams might be looking for to counter current solo laners. It's difficult, but we've seen karthus work still. I believe they can make Ryze work as well.

More like we've seen people suck against Karthus.

Don't know if I'm late to the party, but tried Sej today. Feels REALLY strong with the changes + W bug fix. Had a game where our support Yasuo was feeding on purpose (ended like 2/20/1 or something) and still went 13/7/26.

Also found out that Vel'Koz + Sej is a pretty damn scary ult combo.

The "bug fix" only affects %HP increases so it's really minor. I can't remember if the defense mastery was concerned, but other than that you only had the %HP runes, which are generally bad anyway.

That really depends on if he can lane well enough to not snowball negatively. When played top his primary stray was take tp and out scale the fuck out of anybody he was up against, even if he died a few times, with the only way to stop it being to snowball against him and not let the tear road core come out before the 20 minute mark if at all possible.

I love ryze but his early game is so rough. In mid his range is just too small for a champion with no escapes and his wave clear is not so good before 6. In top he has no escapes so he gets camped harder than teemo. I am less excited about the 25 range and more excited about the tear buff when it comes to ryze though.

What's his niche anyway? The only thing he doesn't offer is sustain, but he has a multi-person shield anyway.


threshs niche is be too good at everything. I think that even if all his damage numbers where reduced to zero he'd still be a better pick than most other support champs. His kit is that broken compared to every other support.

agreed, riot gave him too many useful abilities. you can effectively split thresh set into two other viable supports.

You're not alone. But considering he's pretty much the only streamer acting like this, he's getting the entire audience who like it.

They just need to give their desired "counterplay" to his lantern. It shouldn't be a get out of jail free card, thus, enemy players should be able to click it too. Trying to check that bush? Vi to the face. Trying to save your ZAC that went too ham (man S3 ZAC + Thresh was idiotic)? Enemy Shyvana takes the Thresh express to your Ziggs.

Is there any reason now to play top Rengar with Doran Shield instead of Blade, even when I am going for tanky Rengar? And this question stays for many top laners that rely on auto-attacks I suppose. I can't see how Doran shield is superior defensively to the blade for such champs

Opinions on this?
