Riot has finally seen the light and made Rek'sai R pretty much undodgeable. Ads can finally hit challenjour on this patch.
Edit: https://www.twitch.tv/adsmofro
Streaming rek'sai only for a bit come join (finished)
Edit 2: Not being able to flash rek'sai ult makes me so happy. Ult was so dogshit in the late game because ppl could flash it and/or dash it. U still have the problem of ppl invulnerable but at least they have to spend gold on that.

You've been watching too much pro play and looking at his win rate. Sylas is incredibly good in certain situations, most of all his ult can essentially cause the enemy team to suicide in champ select without being aware of it. He's just really gimmicky and hard to play, need to be pretty smart with him. If they keep buffing him, he's going to suddenly end up super busted.
No Ezreal changes, that's just really surprising. Meanwhile they decided the way to nerf karthus was to hit the base damage on his Q, essentially nerfing mid lane karthus as well, which isn't exactly broken.

Problem with Sylas is his W is his only real ability so he's HEAVILY reliant on enemy ults.
|
That is true, he's one of those champs that looks like a nightmare to balance in the long run. Good chance he'll end up like old Eve, a troll champ

Actually I have no idea of his win rates or pro play. Strictly from my games and from some streams, he looks all right in lane and skirmishes, not something amazing, but all right, maybe even good, however, when the team fights come, he feels like a half champion, even when he is ahead. Thats why I assumed that he is in a bad spot overall.
p.s I am trying to recall now and I think that only in one game out of 15-20, Sylas drew my attention that he is a problem, he was ahead and able to steal nocturne's ult and he was picking teammates around the map 1v1, and I am not even sure that he manages to carry that game )

Hurray. Now I might actually consider queue for top again!
New conqueror look way better against tanks than the older version. Omnivamp Jax? yes pls
|
TBH Karthus being nerfed is funny to me given Ezreal still the same. Unless they are changing Tear items soon. I am pretty sure they are surprised he got good though. Probably is on the chopping block for a rework that makes him not Karthus.
|
Didn't consider that, they might really just be giving him a little nerf if he's getting a rework in the next few months, not worth to change his abilities if they're being remade anyway.
But Ezreal is unlikely to get a rework, unless he's becoming the next Ryze, dudes had more reworks than some champions have skins.

Like I said, he is gimmicky, and I think you have to play him pretty well to get anything done. When played correctly, he can absolutely destroy certain lane matchups, but mid game is pretty useless in team fights. He then has a chance to bounce back at lv 16 if he can grab a bunch of good ults. A generic example is turning around Karthus ult on his own team, essentially makes that late game win condition pretty moot. It's even funnier if for some reason Sylas is ahead and has more AP, so his ult does more damage than Karthus himself. Also, I learnt the hard way that Sylas can steal ults from champions that aren't lv 6 yet, ganked as a Camille and promptly died to my own R.

New conquerer feels busted on Nidalee. Gives her so much staying power in fights and comparable full just dps to electrocute and DH. Seeing how sheis an ap assassin... Conq needs to get hotfixed.
As busted as release DH.

Conquerer hotfixed. Nerfed for ranged in particular.

Does anyone think Jungle kayle will be a thing? I think her ganks especially post 6 would be very interesting and could protect the ADC well in lui of support to be focused on initiating a fight. Jax+kayle would have some nice synergy.
