Chalice/Grail are nerfed still. Especially as an early buy. Probably back to being on par with Morello and really good in the late game still.

Mana regen wise it's massively better than Morello with the buffs. Base regen amount is equal, plus the missing mana increase, plus that 30% on kill/assist is outrageous.

Delicious Bard buffs.

If that goes through, would that be the biggest non-rework buff ever? I don't keep 100% up to date with league changes but I can't think of a time when they put that many buffs on a champion at one time (excluding kit reworks and such when you are basically getting a new champion).

You may want to look at Riven and Yorick.

The best example is Shen's ult.

While we're talking about odd keypresses, there's also champion only commands. I recently bbound it because I was getting tired of right clicking creeps T_T. And I thought it'd be harder to get used to. It's so much better now.

And I use shift + Q for normal cast (long range accuract) and Q for smart cast (speed).

Adding the tilde champions only key to my game has made my ganks 1000 times better. I do the same thing as you with the shift + spell for normal cast. Helps a ton with those max range hooks, or making sure you Bard ult yourself but not the enemies etc.

Athene's is still a quarter more expensive and 20 less AP though. The missing mana is much better lategame though, for sure.

Na, Morgana received several buffs, but over several patches and other champions received some stuff too (and tbh some range and a better animation on her autoattack was QoL, considering how Karthus, Fiddle and her were at that time).

+50 range on Bard AA is insanely big in and of itself. W for speed made hit-and-run auto-harass decent as is, now it'll actually be consistently threatening.

Also I only use the function keys for camera controls with playing Shen, who I only play maybe once or twice a year? Still feels natural to use though, so I kind of agree about how they're really good feeling once you get used to them.

I remember one patch that was four buffs at once, it pretty much instantly made her fp/ban status

memory could be wrong though

Had someone ask me if I was as good as Wildturtle in solo queue today. Replied with "No, I'm as good as Weixiao"
The reply I got was "But he's mid?"

Is the new generation already beginning, and the old greats tossed to the wayside?

People never really got to know Weixiao because he only played in S2+IPL5, which were the beginning of international LOL as we know it. Sadly, he never really got to go to another international major, despite being probably the best ADC of all time.

The only reason I played Eve was because I could screw the enemy jungler over by stealing their first buff 100% of the time. After the jungle nerfs, losing your first buff isn't as bad and I don't understand the "buffs" she got. The restealth quicker mechanic doesn't make sense to me and removing the passive movespeed from her W just feels like a nerf.

I asked this before, but Riot says they want Eve to be a "hit and run" champ. What in the actual fuck is a hit and run jungling champ? I'm supposed to walk into lanes, combo them, and run away? I really don't understand how that isn't a nerf.

The Eve buffs have been crap and do nothing to address the fact that she's weak as fuck early, which is supposed to be her strongest point. You can't just take away 25% of the base damage on her Q and expect to make up for it by making her stealth slightly faster.

It's ok, it's better they don't know than to think WildTurtle is better.

IMO Eve is balanced, at least for soloQ. You need to take into account the extra cost of Pink wards, that pinks are visible, and that deep warding at camps is harder in uncoordinated play.

problem is, even if eve gets kills early on, she just doesn't really snowball much when it comes to team fights during midgame. So you absolutely have to force some weird long ass laning phase while keep getting picks.
