Unlikely they compensated his base damage and ratios so badly to not make bloodrage op, something that you can't take advantage of in a 1v1, lane strength I would say is generally more important in solo Q and his was basically removed.

they gave Morde a shitload of damage but he already did a shitload of damage it was just ap, crucially they didn't give him any new tools to actually get his full combo down, which was the problem with old Morde.

Oh, it's bonus AD on Q currently. Yeah that explains how it's a buff.
The fact that his spire-passive is applied while people are cc'd by E or R doesn't seem huge, though. There's the backswing of your auto and stuff so E gives less than 1s of additional MS (then you add mercs in the mix), and you can't auto during the ult. The MS boost to bring people back into your team faster is nice though.

Sterak's buff is 8 seconds, so I assume the shield decays over the same duration.

Darius is basically a cleanup god now though. That sort of shit always does well in average soloq.

Morde now being capable of having what amounts to a dedicated babysitter is pretty nice in theory.

yea but is it better enough to justify him being not strong in lane anymore, seems unlikely because he's already decent at cleanup if he wins lane which is the majority of the time. Not to mention his already poor initiation was nerfed as they reduced the active frames on E specifically it can now be flashed on reaction which was previously impossible.

I mean I'll totally give him a spin tomorrow because bloodrage sounds hilarious but I'm really not looking foreword to playing him into auto attack tops who can just sit on you now that the hilt of Q does ~35 damage at rank 1

I'd love to see supports intentionally KSing kills against teams with garen to avoid important targets getting villain

I mean squishies are gonna take like 50% more damage anyway and then tanks with like 1500 missing HP are automatically in kill range because fuck mr and 10% max hp true damage bonus on a spin

If the variance on villainy works out, it could be a pretty notable buff.

Hilt Q is gonna be so sad. I didn't really have much trouble hitting it, but I forgot they added a cast time. That works out with the full combo now slowing massively and the increased AA range, but it's gonna be sad times vs a Riven/Fiora and similar matchups.

It's not just the hilt damage. Previously you'd be able to Q them while they approach (and because of his passive you don't want to fight him at level 1 anyway, even to absorb a hilt Q), or even just aa-W-aa, use the passive 5% MS buff + W slow to walk backward a bit and hit Q with the blade, for example.

0.75s delay on Q is longer than Rupture (0.625s), Nevermove, and other such spells. I'm pretty sure once your opponent is made aware of it, he can dodge Q or tank the hilt pretty easily. And you won't be able to easily hit good Qs after an Apprehend either, even less AoE ones.

E-AA, walk back slightly while they're slowed and your Q is casting, hit Q, and another AA-W. That was my usual combo anyway. E is a 90% 1 second slow, so as soon as you hit it, smash Q and you can easily walk into blade range unless they have a dash up. Being able to move to keep the hitbox on them makes it not as devastating a change as it sounds.

Wait, you can move during the "delay", it's not a still cast time?
Live version is pretty much instant but you still retain momentum during the cast so it's more or less like a cast-while-moving spell.

Yep. It's basically the same as before but with a .75 second delay. Example: + Show Spoiler +

Any patch that buffs LeBlanc is a good patch in my book. The Viktor nerfs look excessive as do the Skarner buffs. Other than that, I can't complain.

TL;DR:
Put a champion who had "early reliable waveclear" as one of his main strengths (including laning strength) 600~800 gold behind from the very first recall has more ramifications than just "nerfing his early game a bit".

(And I'll rant again and again about changing an early-midgame champion and trying to shove him forcefully into the "late game" slot that's already fucking overcrowded.)

To wait out enough of the shield to not be efficient would be a pretty good reaction time, and it's also a couple seconds where you're getting free reign with a 25% base AD buff for a couple Tforce procs.

They already thought he was average at best, so of course they think so, lol.
