I would say the biggest issue about gnar is a pure design one. His ultimate being not 100% controllable means they have to compensate by making it overly strong or by making mini form overly strong. There's no real way for them to create a balanced dynamic with him due to the way he is made. It's an interesting idea but I'm sure the balance team is hating the design for the champ. They'll get all the flak when it's not their fault. He will either be overturned or undertuned. There's no real middle ground.

Based on that one BO5 mouse seemed really good, honestly this new EDG might be better but it's way too early to call that.

I don't think that Mouse will be a problem at all, EDG should still 2-0 King convincingly tomorrow.
But seriously, if anyone told me 2 years ago that Clearlove is going to be last man standing from vintage WE, uhoh.

Just thought about it, but the removal of DFG is a huge nerf to Malphite.

im patiently awaiting the day riot implements a way for people to see whether the players they reported get banned or not.
I honestly don't see why they haven't yet
I think the main reason was that tribunal was really slow, so you wouldn't see if they got banned until a month (or some other stupid length of time) later.
|
I think it's probably more along the lines of "noneyabusiness" what happens to other players. Letting players "track" if their reports lead to bans would just be an unnecessary source for irritation. Better for everyone involved to just move on.

I agree, particularly for team fighting. If they made him basically a dedicated splitpusher his transform would basically be a threat to all in. The issue is that this will be unfun for the gnar as he will basically have no opportunities to surprise people.
Or they can give his transform the shyvana treatment, but she has many problems as well.
|
Yip if they make his mini form too strong it means they have to make his ulti terrible or he will just be too strong. If they do the inverse then people will complain he's too weak because they have to rely on something that can't be completely controlled. Honestly he's a bigger nightmare than any of the other transforming champs due to the randomness. Maybe if they gave him more tools to dictate when to ulti it'll help.
I doubt they'll give him the shyv ulti since that will remove his whole selling point. They'll prob just gut him eventually if they can't figure out some genius solution to the problem.

Shyv ulti would be awesome. Weaken his mini form and make it self-cast for 100% rage for Mega form. Probably would be broken as hell.

Sona nerf wasn't really warranted. The only place she was oppressive was aram and maps where her Mana costs didn't matter.
I'm pretty sad about jayce, mid Ezreal already took away much of his popularity.
And yay post counts =D

Sona has problems with mana only in one case - if you just spam heals without thinking about them.
Q costs almost nothing in comparison and it's freaking oppressive if you asked me, when Sona stays behind whole creep wave and press Q which hits you because of priorities without counterplay.

Sorry to say, but Sona nerfs are always warranted. She has never been in a "good" place. Basically, her ult and passive make it very difficult for Riot to get her in a place they actually like. Until they change her passive or change her ult, they won't have enough freedom to mess with her numbers in a better way.
The other method would be to get rid of her healing entirely because that's what causes the biggest issue. In that case, she is in trouble of losing her identity, but it would give freedom to give her more interesting spells/strategy

Make her heal a skillshot that enemies can intercept, boom, balanced. Riot, hire this man

Have name changes always been possible for 13k IP? I thought you can only namechange for RP.

They changed that in the middle of S4 I think.

Heh, cool shit. I didn't know that, finally I can spend my 50k IP on anything other than new champions.

What's wrong with her ult?
