That and the vast majority of PBE players are Bronze-level bads stepping outside of their comfort zone to try the new whatever. It's basically only good for finding obvious bugs. | ||

And then there's patches where Riot listens to the PBE players and then Skarner comes out way too strong. To follow up on the PBE players, most of them are there so they can DOTA it since everything is essentially "free." | ||

And here i thought the potential counterplay to GPs barrels was the whole point they were powerful, I've been neutered so hard in teamfights because ONE person on the other team took the time to lasthit my barrels and hey, then you're OUT of barrels and can't do a damn thing. Except they've almost reverted the bonus damage nerf entirely. | ||

Either way I don't see the sense to keep nerfing a champ with a below average winrate. | ||

I've played alot of GP since the rework and I've gotten quite good with him but I wouldn't say he has more or less carry potential than any other decent champ, especially since one of his abilities has counterplay in it's very design. All it takes is for one out of five people on the other team to have half a brain to potentially hard counter GP in any teamfight, it doesn't make any sense to allow that kind of counterplay out of any single player playing any given champ if the skill itself isn't even worth countering. | ||

What I think doesn't matter. It's what Riot thinks and it's not out of their playbook to do it. | ||

Yea, they only have the strongest armor pen in the game, stronger than any item, stronger than any ult, and also on a normal ability which lets you wave clear and get bonus gold. | ||

Most of it is analysis. what are they analyzing if not statistics? random ladder games or gbm and pawn dominating with 10% more armor pen and triple barrel combos that already aren't available on live? | ||
