It's a 30-second cooldown Vayne tumble-length dash. How many AP champs are really going to be buying this, given that it's got a Kindlegem in the buildpath and only 60 AP?

My 3 most played champs are Syndra, Zyra and Vel'koz. I haven't played a ranked game this season. This might be my glorious return. In Silver.
Also Brand and Malzahar look gooooooooooood. Love that Brand passive explosion.

yo zyra looks actually pretty cool and non-fucked-up

Yay, now we get endless AP Ekko pick/ban instead of tank Ekko.

Malzahar's W was crazy strong, but it was about setting up a proper location to cast it and have people stand 2-3 seconds in it. If it does 15% of a champion's HP then it's on par with most nukes. They didn't nerf it for nothing.

Seems identical to old Brand, just a massive buff on his passive if you hit everything.
I'm just shaking my head. Let's just mega buff everything until fights end in a tenth of a second. It probably comes with damage nerfs (as in, elsewhere than on his passive, which is nerfed for sure before the explosion). His ult is a place where they'd likely reduce the damage because of the randomness.
Also they said RNG is frustrating when talking about Brand double-killing whoever tries to dive him in lane... then they put these dragons. What?

Please, for the love of God, let 6.8 be the patch that MSI is played on and not have it be played on 6.9, which is the big Mage update.
If teams play MSI on 6.9 it's going to be a pure clusterfuck and mid lane's going to boil down to who the strongest 2-3 Mages are and building a team around the mid laner again.

iceborn is still stupid strong until they get FH back from trash tier losing 25 damage isn't that big a deal considering the stats it gives

Tanks did wayyyy too much damage.

Assuming the normal 2 week patch schedule it's basically confirmed msi is NOT on 6.9

I'd rather not see a version of this game with Bloodrazor and that Rageblade in it.

When we first saw duskblade we didn't see the cooldown on its passive and frankly its still a competent item in the right situation.
We are right about these things far more often than riot is, to be honest.
