Yeah, don't see how these don't promote AP on him. PBE stuffs Well, time to give Riot more money for the Riven skin. Oh, and Riot finally broke down and made schoolgirl Ahri. lol They aren't enough to make AP Ekko good, thats the issue. 1. Passive .1 AP buff, unfortunately inconsequential, especially early and midgame. 2. Shield ratio just doesn't matter very much, the shield has always been really really big, you almost never get burst through it, its duration is its weakness. Buffing its strength rarely ever matters. 3. The heal is kind of funny, as AP ekko still get way less out of it than tank, because he has less health, his health is less valuable (armor/MR), and he simply can't take nearly four seconds of damage. AP Ekko usually either explodes someone, takes minimal damage, and gets out, or has to panic ult out, or dies in less than two seconds. In none of those situations is a percent heal of 50 of one seconds taken damage very useful. Your health bar is too small and volatile to sit around and try bait out damage and ult at the last second or something. in short its not enough to make AP Ekko even really noticeably better, he needs something else. Maybe a mana cost reduction on Q would help him spam it and get farm safely, as he has much worse mana issue in lane than jungle. Of course that could make skirmishers viable in the jungle. Maybe it gives him some mana back if he hits a champion. | ||

I feel like it's going to discourage people from learning new champs because each one is like learning how to play a new game. Like, Lee Sin, Elise, etc. were mechanically demanding champs with kits that could do lots of different things depending on your combo order and build. That was pretty cool. Putting these insanely complicated minigames in is lame. | ||

You have to factor in playoffs is on another patch then there's just blank period with zero competitive games between playoffs and worlds patch. That's the main issue to me. Worlds format was such that each individual game means so much. If the format was like TI where there's a bunch of group stage games which matter but doesn't eliminate you from anything then having no games on the patch would be ok. As it stands teams basically have to pray their prep work is going the right way then if it isn't they get maybe 2 games leeway to try figure it out. I want to watch the best teams in the world playing at their peak. Not teams fumbling around Overall it's just kind of a dumb time to make these huge sweeping changes. The only major change they did in a few months was the mage item stuff, there's no real reason why they couldn't have done these changes then On August 05 2015 07:35 ticklishmusic wrote: yo dawg i herd u liek games so i put a game in your gage so u can game while you game This entire "unique champ gameplay" design philosophy is kind of dumb.

Putting these insanely complicated minigames in is lame. Yea I get what you saying. Instead of creating a kit that can naturally develop into a bunch of really cool mechanical interactions they are making up the mechanical interactions and saying "this is how you play it". It's not really interesting or good design I think. | ||
