Well they want this specifically for defensive items, since you inherently reacting to what damage items are bought, or something.

Personally I don't think it should be a thing for dps items, since it removes some meaningful differences in build paths

Wait, since when do you even care about Akali?

And having a way to damage tanks is fine (I mean, if you tried playing Viktor in s3-4 it was painfully obvious that no DFG would let you magically play your role by focusing a Nasus/Renekton/Xin), it's just Liandry's is simply so inefficient outside of edge cases that noone builds it anyway, even at lower levels, which makes their statement false.
Then (or rather, before) there's the part where they say "after Liandry's was introduced, people started buying DFG to 100-0 squishies".
Yup. DFG was used against tanks previously and not primarily to blow up squishies better. Riot said it in their patchnotes so it's gotta become true all of a sudden.

Horseshit.


wtf are you talking about
if you want to kill tanks you wanted void staff more than dfg, nobody used dfg burst to kill tanks unless you caught someone or something

in particular tanks tend to have around 100 mr just from runes scaling and mercs or hexdrinker, often squishies are closer to 30-40 mr and are close to true damage from dfg

That's exactly what I said, Teut: DFG was never a tankbuster item, but Riot tries to pretend it was before the introduction of Liandry's and that the latter is what made people buy it as an "additional nuke" item.

It's always been like that regardless of Liandry's, they just seem to think we're too dumb to notice. Or they haven't noticed themselves and I'm not sure which is worse.

They already put out a post that they are looking into azir nerfs but wouldn't be in this patch. I Expect a range nerf on his dash and soldiers attack.

I don't know, until that patch comes out it's still a must ban. Also, what's the opinion on Nidalee? She's still annoying as f, and her spears still chunk hard, I don't really like her being buffed, I don't want to see the annoyance of Nidalee jungle back.

So that's what I've been doing wrong all this time!
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Riot's done a good job of making sure their new champions are played a lot in competitive. Start them out strong, slowly nerf until the newest flavors come around. Rinse and repeat.
Hey! How you doin'?

You mean they remade it like 4 times with multiple different designers that had different levels of misconceptions about how the item was used before finally removing it when they realized none of those guys had any idea what they were doing.

does anyone else feel that in s4 they kept nerfing tank items and now that dmg seems nuts because of poor tank itemization they need to tone down all the dmg items/burst champions (dragon buff made it even more apparent)
