They're finally nerfing Banshees, and giving Lucian's E a more reasonable CD timer compared to the BS it currently is on live. | ||

They're finally nerfing Banshees, and giving Lucian's E a more reasonable CD timer compared to the BS it currently is on live. I hate the Banshee's nerf. They're killing what makes the item unique and will make the passive basically irrelevant especially when there's so many aoe poke in the game, when imo they should just hit the overall stats it gives. As for Elise, imo the Q and E nerf are way way more significant than the auto attack nerf. Jungle Elise doesn't really care that much about her auto range, except maybe for red buff application and even then it's not really an issue with rappel. Jungle Elise is usually built full/near-full tank too so the vulnerability aspect of a range nerf isn't a big deal. It's overall a huge nerf though since E gets much harder to hit and her engage potential is further reduced with Q/E range reductions. | ||

On the other hand, win rate of such champion on soloQ, regardless of MMR range, has no bearing on future nerfs. | ||

What is important is what is balanced for pros, but what is fun for regular players. | ||

holy shit my jimmies are rustled after reading s@20 like why does the Lissandra buff have to be a trade? can't we see how the Q buff goes first, it's not like you don't have a 2 week patch cycle to change it holy shit. | ||

The only problem is, every time there's a unique, powerful item with a cool ability, the ability gets nerfed or made pointless. I wish that Riot would, instead of giving us piece of shit items like Essence Reaver, they'd just buff/rework current items so that they're unique and impactful. | ||

Plus, it's not even about just farming jungles being weak, it's about how only 1 kind of jungler is strong, which is boring to watch even if pros like it. Personally, I think the issue with junglers is that in pro play, jungles will almost always be relegated to a support/low farm role due to how farm is distributed on the pro level. This means farming jungles will imo never be a thing unless something drastic about the game is changed (ie. pre-nerf Feral Flare). Talking about what is "fun" for regular players is a moot point imo. Almost every champion is perfectly playable in solo queue with a few, rare exceptions. Rarely does Riot's balancing significantly impact a champion's solo queue playability. | ||
