Also, how come Riot had to go and give Azir, a champ with immense zoning potential, TWO escape/disengage abilities. That's straight up fucked. His lack of CC outside ult doesn't seem enough of a drawback to me. The whole idea of a zone control champion is that they are weak if you can penetrate/remove/get around their zone. Riot does this right with some champs (e.g. Zyra, Syndra, Heim - they are pretty screwed if you can get to them), but Azir pretty much flies right in the face of that theory. Incidentally, Ziggs probably wouldn't have had so many nerfs if his bullshit escape didn't exist, and I'm willing to bet the same about Caitlyn too (that net is bullshit on a crap sandwich when you consider she has longest base range in the game). | ||

I just think his tower passive looks like a problem waiting to happen and that the Yasuo example being "look this isn't a problem" is not that great of an example. Well don't read it a way it isn't said then. Removing the silence means as soon as Talon jumps to you you can dash away or flash and he has nothing to stay on top of you. Akali has up to 2 other dashes, Zed has W and ult, Kha'Zix has his ult, W, E, and in general doesn't care because bullshit dps he doesn't have to stand near you to burst (Talon's reliant on his E damage amplification past a point and it lasts 3s), Rengar can root you if needed to kill you, etc. It also means he can't interrupt spells anymore. | ||

"This has not been forgotten and is still discussed internally. Here's the tl;dr of the history. The original plan, back when high quality summoner icons were rare, was to give out Riot Supporter icons that evolved in coolness based on how much lifetime RP was spend on an account. It was intended as a simple thank you to players who could then choose whether or not they wanted to display it to show they had supported the game and made it possible for so many to play for free. We ran some surveys to make sure it would be well received, and the feedback from RP spenders was that it wasn't enough of a reward and didn't feel good. So we went back to the drawing board and came up with plans for scaling rewards that we also tested by survey. While those scored better with RP spenders, they were negatively received by the majority of the player base that hadn't spent money. They also felt bad to some Rioters who take pride in treating all of our players the same whether they have bought zero skins or 100. The only reason to launch this kind of program is to show appreciation to players and create good feelings all around, and so the interest in moving forward dies quickly when we realize that just as many bad feelings will be created. So more recently our discussions have focused on what we can do to benefit all players and not just spenders. This has resulted in the return of double IP weekends and an increase in summoner icons that can be earned without spending. We continue to evaluate other ideas (like cars and wives/husbands for all!), but if they happen, they likely will not distinguish between RP buyers and non-buyers." Pffffffffftttttttt............ I hope they will implement anything for lifetime RP buyers like ME but no, treat everyone equally, dafuq. Also can someone already create a thread in LoL Tournaments for Worlds? Group stage starts in 2 days. | ||

Thats not exactly true. He's still got up to 2.5 seconds of +40% movespeed to get back on you from his ult, which is quite a lot. | ||

That's like saying "hey guys, I've got no hard cc, but let's jump on Kassadin, he won't escape I swear". | ||

Well you know what, that kind of thinking hurts my feelings. Stop being so entitled. You get skins and champions for buying RP. Anything else is just gravy, and you're not a special snowflake for spending RP. | ||

This has been Riot's balance method for who knows how long and will be for the foreseeable future. It's easier to just nerf bat anything that gets popular than it is to create a balanced dynamic of strength. | ||

The lane really needs to snowball, but it's pretty easy to catch a person or two in Anivia's stun and icicle attack with a wall behind them for Vayne to have the easiest condemn in the world. Chaining a stun at lvl 3 or 4 against a champ that is lvl 2 or 3 pretty much forces a flash over the wall or they're dead. I've been maxing the wall second because once you get a Talisman of Ascension isolating people with the wall and picking them off becomes really easy and its the only move Anivia has that has scaling utility. I used to hate supporting Vaynes because I have such an aggressive style in the lane, but this combo has been giving me some success so far. | ||
