What point-and-click spells still have 675+ range? Most point-and-clicks that had that much range have also been nerfed (Ryze Q lost 50 range, Kassadin Q lost 50 range and silence, Leblanc Q lost silence). | ||

(Of course even without that there still remains the awkwardness for a combo-reliant champ like Brand to need to max W first and use it on the wave if he's getting pushed anyway, but that's another thing.) | ||

At release everyone thought he was super underpowered (though they were wrong) and the only person who played him was Chauster playing some mix of jungle, top, and roam Lee Sin. It basically took the discovery of the double-E bug, followed by a fix to it + a massive over-buff for him to be widely played. You also have to look at the fact that during the era of "underplayed" lee sin, was when you had shit like udyr and gangplank walking around fucking bitches up. Lee Sin was definitely strong, but he was outshadowed by counterparts. | ||

I don't know if the damage cap against monsters is applied before or after Butcher's damage increase, though. The bonus health is also nice but don't expect it to be huge, although now that Randuin's is meh a FH/warmog's build would provide more HP in the end. On Nautilus for example, the new passive means that you get 3.75% of your bonus HP (before the golem passive) as a shield. It's not that much because once you multiply percentages they melt. | ||

The clear seems like it would be slower but at least you can spam more, maokai is still gonna be slow as shit probably so he's not gonna be good im guessing. Amumu can spam more in jungle so you can Q camps and you'll still probably clear fast. I think orianna is quite clearly too strong but you can counterplay against her at least. Kayle has no real counterplay she does insane DPS but also counters burst and has a heal against poke. new Ancient Golem farms slower? O.o, I thought they said they were going to make farming with it almost as fast as its counterparts... | ||

O.o, I thought they said they were going to make farming with it almost as fast as its counterparts... 5% of max HP every 3 seconds? camp should take a maximum of 9 seconds to kill so a maximum of 15% max hp bonus damage. Used to give 30% more damage so it only breaks even at about 12 seconds and more realistically fast junglers kill in 3-6 seconds when smite is up | ||

FH is a good item on Amumu. While health is good, getting kited 24/7 is not. Having 20% CDR shreda your Q by 1.2 seconds. That's 1.2 seconds less of being kited. Also the flat mana is very good too for obvious reasons. | ||

His W and E can do considerable damage, in conjunction with Sunfire and his headbutt. | ||

I played some Sejuani and I have to say that she feels pretty good now. This is more because of all the other junglers getting nerfed than the new item though. The only real difference is that you can use Q (which you typically don't max first) a bit more early and of course the new ward which is pretty nice. | ||
