IDK, Riot keeps on saying they don't want champions to simply eclipse other champions but the combination of having so many and their current philosophy makes it seem basically impossible. I kinda wish I knew the history of other mobas so that I could compare them all and make wise-sounding pronouncements about methods of balance.

Well since you can't play LoL online with those servers it's even worst, they can't get information about balance !

(That's my theory when I see the last changes)

Are the reds the ones she does well against or the ones she does poorly against? I'm pretty sure blue is good and red is bad yes?

And these are adjusted for said champions overall winrate?

I really don't understand what the P value means.

You mean apart from the fact that he already has 0.625 base AS and only 2.9% per level, making him bottom of the barrel in that regard?


Except that Jinx, Ezreal, Corki and Sivir all have lower AS at 18.

And its not like quickdraw is a massive steroid or anything.

Yeah, it's not like Jinx's steroid beats his natural AS after one attack, and his own steroid after two, and that if she doesn't use it she has a 175 range advantage on him.
It's not like Sivir's steroid is bigger than his and she deals better AoE damage than him in terms of dps so after his burst (which is low by level 18 standard) she'll quickly gain the advantage.
Oh, or the fact that Corki's spells give him way more damage and that he can effectively kite with missiles for a way longer reach than his.
Ezreal was specifically set to the same AS as him around when W was broken. He has longer reach with Q, and his steroid is virtually always up.

So yeah, for someone who's got one of the shortest ranges and reaches, he's actually not outputting much dps. Also his base AS+range mean it's actually a pain to last hit with him early on against a lane with range advantage for example (stuff like Leona makes up for it because it provides a big threat to create space after level 2).


I'm not sure why we're arguing these numbers at this point, because I'm fairly sure we are capable of using the LolWiki and citing numbers to support points. I know Graves is crap at this point and I'm not going to argue to the contrary. The point I made, which you seem to have missed, is that FOTM champs may not necessarily have the best base stats. Base stats barely matter if the rest of your kit is good enough, which is something I said about Jinx when she first came out.

Anyways, this is completely unrelated to what I originally said about gutting Graves' already mediocre attack speed and giving him better damage mitigation (I'd even be okay with doubling his passive honestly, though maybe cap stacks at 8) to effectively change him into a ranged bruiser with decent sustained damage- not a true marksman or whatever, but maybe someone who would be an effective toplane. I doubt Riot will ever redo a champ to be a different or potentially meta-ambiguous role though, so that's a shame.

Been rocking out the offensive Maokai in ranked, 4-2 thus far and 9-5 overall this week. With some AP and offensive stuff you one shot the small camps with Q/E starting at lvl 2 and the W actually does dmg to monsters now since the charm change.

It's pretty fun, if you are looking for something different might be fun!

pretty much obvious that lux does good against people with no strong gap closer.
and bad against anyone that can blink.

I feel like the attack speed nerf is what really caused people to stop playing him. Not that long ago it was Graves/Corki/Ezreal in every game anyways

Blue -> Lux is strong against
Red -> Lux is weak against.

Yes, adjustments were made already.

EDIT: read the table as follows.

p-value < 0.02: strong evidence of good/match match up
p-value > 0.02 but < 0.05: weak evidence
p-value > 0.05: no evidence

So what we can get from this is Lux is apparently good against Corki, Skarner, Volibear and Kassadin, bad against Ahri, and nobody is playing her.

Nothing really surprising I suppose.

I admit it got stale to see every game but it was alot better than dealing with some retard playing Caitlyn, or someone playing Jinx and still being relevant due to her retarded ass ult

Man, watching OGN intros for each tournament, and final. Riot needs to step up their game... OGN production value so good.

Yes. That's what the methodology tells us. Not very good, I know.

Lux isn't very popular though - the sample size isn't too big. If I had more data maybe I can infer more interesting things.

Eiii please.

I think the real take away from this information is that Urgot hard counters Lux.

Clearly.

I know I've played Lux vs mid Urgot but it was so long ago and probably only one game and I can't remember it at all.

Is there any way to control for Elo in these? Like if you only take diamond 5 or above in solo queue?

That would be the shit and probably far closer to theoretically sound. And Ahri should get dunked by a good Lux imo, even if the data doesn't show it.

Nvm, found the Graves changes. They seem very weak compared to what could be done. If they want Graves to be played more often, don't have all his stacks fall off after 3 seconds, give him a small AS buff per level, and increase his max HP slightly if you want him to be an ADC that gets in close to brawl with people.
