- Akali nerf probably not enough for pro play (watching the CN super server games, she has like 100% PB and does well every single game)
- Lucian nerf probably also not enough
- Udyr buff, top kekw
- Holy crap, after 1 year of highest ARAM winrate champ, Cait finally gets a small nerf. I predict this will do absolutely nothing to her winrate.

Akali is hard so I'm guessing she won't have a >95% p/b rate because of teams who can't play her well enough.

Its wild they're nerfing Cait but not Ashe. I expect her to have crazy presence at worlds

They nerfed Ashe pretty hard last patch, to be fair.

Irelia buff is really weird, it doesn’t really help her in her when she is counter picked, and she was already very strong when not counter picked. This will maybe help her vs Garen as level 6+ is really hard to play even with a small lead until 2 completed items. But it helps her the most against stuff she already stomps.

Lots of pros playing her on the super server, she might be a big pick at worlds.

It's awesome. So many comps are viable. Spammed it today and have top 3'ed with like 6 different comps. I love love love how 5 costs aren't as ggez as they were in prior sets. :D

Yeah did about 10 games and the variety is pretty nice. I love Lee Sin kick, it's so fun

why is Samira not available yet? what are they waiting for?

p.s. I found out the reason, she was only one week on pbe so riot will give her another one before release, hence, she comes next week

Samira actually got a pretty useful ability hidden in her taunt emote (she get a passive stack if it runs through it's animation, she can do it outside vision). wtf riot

I watched T1 Gumayusi stream where he played her, and it looked pretty similar. I'll give her some time for the player base to learn to play around her, but atm she looks like she has just as much utility as Aphelios, couldn't tell what her weaknesses are.

I dont really think she has any in particular in her current form. Maybeeee that she's a very "go forward" champion so she can have a very hard time to recover? Kind of like old Fiora just the ADC version.
