To which I bring up again "Oh, so you're saying Riot should have been monetizing us even harder but didn't? Fine by me."
It really depends. Some of the broadcast would be improved by monetization, or simply not made worse. Running regular commercials right at the end of a game would actually be a good thing instead of the kind of awkward banter before they go to the desk. It provides pacing, kind of like comic relief does in a movie. Having the desk "presented by kia" or whatever they did is a no-brainer.
The bottom line is some form of ad monetization is healthier for the league, as it doesn't need to rely on VC and Riot sugardaddying.

I know this isn't yet updated for the new Patch 9.11 but I found this tier list super helpful when deciding who to play the past several months. I've been playing as Riven and they have her listed on God Tier for top. Good luck ya'll.

I dunno, after watching some gameplay it doesn't look like they are killing him but rather killing it. He looks fucking baller.

But current Mord is a unique champion that could exist along side this new baller champion

Alright. I've now played Yuumi three times and with my resume as a caster, analyst and proplayer I can safely say she's fucking broken.
How she has that low win rate is beyond me.
EDIT: Another year another Ryze rework... I dont even know if it's sad or fun at this point.
|
I still love old Ryze best.
|
First Ryze is definitely the best Ryze.
|
First Ryze is honestly the only one where I can remember what the skills do/did.

wtf why are they reworking ryze again?

Because they continue to create iterations with 90% Pro Pick/Ban rates that win about 40% of the time in soloQ.

Also he's a mascot champion, when I think of League I think of Ryze and Ezreal. Both which have proven to be some of the poorest balanced champions in the game for years, but get away with it because of backlash. Lee sin was also in that position, but is pretty balanced now because there's 50 champions with do-everything-has-no-weaknesses kits. I personally look forward to a Ryze rework, he's too strong at the high level, but knowing Riot they won't actually solve his problems.

they are making the W root conditional, and to be fair to riot here since I am always the one saying removing all point and click cc from the game is a mobility buff in a game where mobility is already king, in this case they have pretty much tried everything they can to let him keep W and it hasn't worked. In any case the point I was trying to make is I'm not sure if the "machine gun" or the "machine gun + CC" was the problem but it's at least a part of it so he might be balanced this time.

Riot:
We want to make Ryze less OP in competitive and better in solo queue.
>Gives him an ult that is noticeably better in Comp and pretty much useless in SoloQ
>Becomes better in Competitive
Riot: Shocked pikachu
Edit: Ryze changelist for those who haven't seen it (according to riot there will be a "less drastic" changelist on Monday, whatever that means):
+ Show Spoiler +

I'd prefer if they tried to change him into something like Cassiopeia instead of keeping his ult in his kit.
|
well the new ult augments his mana scaling so it will be worth points in solo q now, but yes I too was hoping they would delete his underlord ult, maybe make it like his 2nd? passive, where he gets spell weaving cooldown reduction, making him only a machine gun during ult basically, personally I would prefer that to conditional W(lol) but one or the other had to go and both is probably too much
|
>Gives him an ult that is noticeably better in Comp and pretty much useless in SoloQ
Yeah, I really don't follow their reasoning for his ult changes.
making him only a machine gun during ult basically,
The old Ryze passive reduced the remaining basic ability CD whenever an ability was used, including when ultimate was activated (hence people would hit Q then R then rest of combo). Riot specifically removed that ultimate because mastery of the champ revolved solely around button mashing, and I'm not a fan of it coming back.
So many people have started super slow debuff builds, Riot needs to address this. Neeko/Ahri/Yuumi/Veigar stacking GLP/Twin Shadows slowing entire enemy teams, and completely shutting down any immobile champs. Veigar slows you from a screen away and you can't dodge his E.
|
The dumb thing about Ryze is that people have always tunneled on his W even though that's not the problem at all. The problem with the newest iteration is his ult being op in competition and his Q being basically the worst spell in the game.

Yes that’s the passive I’m referring to, also optimal use was to ult at the end of your combo because it would make your w Cooldown short enough to start a second full combo, I actually feel like I’m in a time machine, the nostalgia of people calling 2nd version of Ryze button mashing whilst giving un optimal spell orders a sentence later 
Ryze 2 was op because RoA + Frozen Heart + veil was a max damage build
