25 range nerf on Ziggs autoattack doesn't hurt that bad, already played yesterday him mid lane, only had troubles against Zed - but Zed is always a hard lane vs Ziggy, still doing fine, still can waveclear with no problems.

Been playing with Graves after those slight buffs, can't see the difference yet.

IMO Graves still going to suffer from being shorter-ranged than Cait/Jinx/Varus, not as good a duelist as Lucian/Draven, and not as good at bursting people as Sivir/MF/Trist.

Everything he does, someone else can do better. Slight ult buffs aren't going to change that.

The only thing he excels at as an AD is smokescreen, but even that is "whoopy-doo" territory.

Top: Same I think. There are simply too many ways for two bruisers to force trade to take anything else. All-ins can happen as early as level 2. The only exception would be Irelia or any champ you normally run Health Regen Quints + Armor Seal with. You want to switch it around now. Armor Quints + Health Regen Seals. You will have about 5 more armors than before but 3 lower HP/5. However, don't forget that armor makes each point of regen more effective.

AP Mid: Scaling health or Armor seals. Consider switching out AP quints for flat CDR too. Most AD mids are assassins. Scaling armor reach 8.6 at level 6 so it almost evens out the flat armor seals by the time he starts being strong. You still have the +4 base armor and whatever early scaling armor gives you so you should still crap on him before that.

AD Mid: I think you gain more from flat health seals now but I'm not sure if it's really worth it.

Marksman: I personally do 1 Armor quints + 2 Attack Speed for most. 2 AD quints for someone like Urgot or Ezreal instead. Scaling Armor seals instead of flat. Either all flat MR or 5 MR + 4 Mana regen gylphs.

Support: I would like to say same but CDR quints are more attractive now.

Yeah I know that but I'm just wondering what is a good way to buff him and not make him broken and see him nerfed like crap after. Autoattack range buff? Remake of Smoke Screen? Range buff on ult? No idea.

They could just revert all his nerfs 1 by 1 'til he's in a good spot again.

Riot has rarely ever reverted nerfs. They'll buff in other areas, but taking back a nerf is hardly ever done.

It's something I've never understood, where nerfs come in to keep a champ in check in a certain meta, the meta changes, and then that nerf is suddenly overbearing and unneeded.

His whole deal is to be a short range burst AD carry. They need to buff his passive, and Q damage at the very least but will probably needs a range buff too. The Graves wet dream is to quickdraw in, and then get off a massive buckshot/collateral damage combo, and then auto people down while you wait for your cooldowns.

Riot reverts a lot of nerfs, they just take their time in doing so.

I see nerfs partially reverted fairly often. Recent examples being TF and Eve's Q.

sword of the occult stacking so silly; played a bot game, team was very noob and I ksed all kills heavily with cait, so it got to 50 minute mark.
By that point, between crit passive, mostly 5 sword of the occults, and infinity edge, i was hitting for a lot.


wait, so stacking occult/mejai's works? Isn't it supposed to be unique passive?
▲ I was really thirsty while playing a match. All my teammates were gone, so I drank from the water bottle that was next to me. It was very good. I thank the owner of the bottle.

So these Renekton changes really caught my eye.

+ Show Spoiler +
R - Dominus
BONUS HEALTH 300/450/600 health ⇒ 200/400/800 health
MAGIC DAMAGE PER TICK 40/70/100 ⇒ 30/60/120


Renekton is typically seen as falling off late game, but with the new changes to Dominus, Renekton seems to get a rather odd power-spike at level 16, with his ult giving him a whopping 400 additional health and 60 magic damage per tick. Compare this to his old values, where each additional level of Dominus gave only 150 health and 30 damage per tick.

I'm not really sure what my point in posting this is besides saying that it seems really strange to give an early-game champion a bizarre level 16 power-spike. I wonder if people will play him differently as a result. I mean, it's like he gets an additional Sunfire Cape at level 16, minus the armor.

why dont people play ap malphite mid? It seems like it'd be really really good, especially in solo queue where you can roam bot and get a free double once you hit 6...

its just a better ap trist, I have seen so many legendary ap malphs that go on to lose because in the end all it takes is 1 flash out of your ult to lose game, and that will happen eventually in solo q.

Funny you say that just as I played vs a team with AP Malph mid. It was bad. He tried to set up ganks bot with TP and what not but, ehh... didn't really work out. I also find that Malph's ultimate is pretty easy to dodge and he doesn't have too much after his ult.

AP trist is better than AP malph
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's stupid and just frustrating. It can also be hard to try out anything new, because then you're matched up against something like a Zed who just spams WQE at you and you're at half health as soon as you step in lane.

Anyone knows if SKT1 Zed skin is already live? Because Vayne is so, so... Zyra is pretty decent, Jax nothing special but LeeSin looks fucking incredible ! Wondering if they'll available only in a Bundle or you can buy them separately.
