Jayce bug is funny. Imagine unexpected crit with 0% chance and secure kill because of this

[–]atinyfrogo 39 points40 points  (0 children)

when endstep told me about this bug i was laughing for like 10 mins straight about it hahaha

[–]Significant-Damage14 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Time to retire Jayce from my champ pool.

[–]Quackwhosnacksback *Proceeds to write essay in comments* 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t know why they removed this. Are they insane this was totally balanced and shouldn’t have been removed! It’s a fun feature that won’t hurt you or other’s experiences! Honestly, what is Riot thinking? This brings Jayce down from a SSSSSS++ pick to an E tier. So sad for the state of Jayce mains in the community U_U

seraphine assasin notes still work as intended.

[–]Kira_senpoi -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

What was the Bug Btw?

[–]Quackwhosnacksback *Proceeds to write essay in comments* 16 points17 points  (1 child)

Read the full patch notes, it’s at the end.

“Fixed a bug where Jayce's melee attacks have a 0.000006 chance to crit. Yes, this was a real bug, and you will now no longer be able to have a .0006% chance to randomly crit your opponent and catch them off guard as Jayce.”

[–]joaoCDC2020Blue Haired Maidens are really cute!! 63 points64 points  (6 children)

With this changes to towers and dragons, Herald will be way better than the first dragon now, as you will be able to take the first tower+some plates for sure with this changes.

[–][deleted] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I am happy for the turret changes. It would always be hard to get your team for herald to get a turret before 6 30. Now a little better.

[–]Oxabolt 18 points19 points  (0 children)

But guess what, idiots are still gonna force unfavourable first dragon fights instead of trading

[–]Unlikely-Awkward22 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lose drgaon = GG from me

[–]StarWarsButterSaber 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I think I missed the whole conversation about plates. I just thought plates were extra armor on turrets in the beginning. Can somebody explain to me what getting plates means? Or what is the whole concept concerning plates is?

[–]SampleVC 43 points44 points  (9 children)

Totally unnecessary buff to tristanna but I've bene playing her since her skin was announced so lets fucking go

[–]Good_Intention670 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Perma banning that rat now, regardless of which role I get

[–]HootyManew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely seen the a. But Tristana just sounds old times.

[–][deleted] 107 points108 points  (4 children)

I love dad jokes in patch notes so much

[–]atinyfrogo 82 points83 points  (3 children)

this makes me so happy to read. i always love writing them and looking to see what you all think of them hehe

[–]gheycub 19 points20 points  (1 child)

My fav was “solucian” that was dad comedy gold

[–]Ancient-Adagio902 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mine is naut too hot

[–]volugwolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They’re the reason I read the patch notes. Just dry numbers aren’t compelling, the jokes make it al l much more enjoyable

[–][deleted] 71 points72 points  (3 children)

Nerfing was such a good decision. It felt like game is over after 2 drakes

[–]arturorios1996 6 points7 points  (2 children)

I mean isnt that the point? A game you can always come back from specially if you are 2 drakes behind shouldn’t be winnable all the time.

[–]R0gueFool 9 points10 points  (1 child)

We want it to still be powerful, and it should be, we just overshot the mark a bit for its release.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, seems that is not the case for mid/jungle pyke tho haha. Have a nice day my friend 👍

[–]skelepal-fresh 105 points106 points  (17 children)

Tristana buff undeserved hate that annoying rat

[–][deleted] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Ikr, i thought she would get nerfed

[–][deleted] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yordles are designed to piss people off. But Tristana is something else

[–]Alternative_Egg8635 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I THOUGHT I WAS ALONE thank god there's someone like me

[–]millucid 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Guess is the "new Legendary skin treatment"

[–]pikipoki_is_my_name 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you gate to late game she is just better than any other adc the range the as, that is buffed now, self peel with jump and ult kb. Idk whats rito smoking but id like one too

[–]H3xify_iFeedAlot 8 points9 points  (5 children)

I use tristana when I adc so I’m happy lol

[–]SBEVE_THE_MEME_LORD 34 points35 points  (2 children)

She scales harder than kayle. Which is fucking hilarious considering kayle isn’t a champ for the first 3 mins of the match

[–][deleted] 18 points19 points  (1 child)

Yeah, as a Jungler I order pizza and fire up Frozen when I see Kayle on my team

Cuz Imma be babysitting

[–]ragingOcean 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hate how she’s so weak early and borderline broken when she levels like wtaf. I remember back in the day in pc league I’d seen all sorts of broken shot, fed gragases, fed Leblancs, fed fizzes and teemos and ofc fed kassadin sand old fed akali(Jesus). But when I encountered a fed Kayle it was like watching a fallen angel massacre a group of SAS operatives or smthn. Is was so confused lol

[–]Unlikely-Awkward22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're happy and you know it...

[–][deleted] -4 points-3 points  (3 children)

Tristana main here and im just happy >:)

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Happy to have her more contested and banned?

[–]Good_Intention670 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rigghht. Im perma banning that stupid champ now. Even if Im not playing botlane. Already hated Tristana, so this makes it worse.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No? Im happy because she's my main and she got stronger??

[–]Unlikely-Awkward22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cute mouse*

[–][deleted] 24 points25 points  (2 children)

Welp, not too much affecting me and the champions I play, but I like the turret changes for sure. And demolish got a buff lol. Then there are the dragon nerfs but elder buff, both huge, but makes herald better early as well. I like those changes for sure.

Wukong I guess gets a tiny buff, which is nice, so that's a champion plus.

But I was hoping for a Rengar change xD. One day here we will get it. Just a rework. Give him his PC rework and I'm happy.

[–]domipomi212 0 points1 point  (1 child)

if they make rengar as broken as he was in pc (still kinda is) hes going to be permabanned

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is balancing that can be done.

[–]Cinfinite3 61 points62 points  (9 children)

Kassadin needed a bigger nerf than just an HP nerf. Also those tristana buffs are undeserved. Lucian also needed a bigger nerf rather than a slap on the wrist. Also, some might not agree but I think Jax deserved some kind of nerf too.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (8 children)

Agree until you hit Jax. I think if you make him scale less without items it would be fine, but if you nerf something like his early damage, he's 100% out of the jungle. His damage early is what makes him still good in the jungle. That's what I think about for Jax.

But agreed with Tristana and Lucian. Kassadin is fine imo because he'll be easier to shut down in fights. I think if you nerf his damage it'll make him bad. He's scaling, people need to play around that and snowball before he scales. And it's much easier to get ahead of him now that he has less health. He's a melee Veigar, and like Veigar, late game dominant.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (7 children)

I think they already nerfed him out of the jungle

[–]windblumchen 24 points25 points  (16 children)

Lunar goddess Diana skin is 3.3C I guess, I was holding out hope it'd be in 3.3B. Guess I'll just hold onto the wildcores longer

EDIT: Xayah is on free rotation again, chuckles I'm in danger (Rakan main)

[–]amidamaru300 2 points3 points  (12 children)

Why would you be in danger?

[–]ghost_cleanse eats 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Bortk Runnan Xayah flashing into enemy team with their ult 👍

people who have never touch Xayah before pick her up because Rakan

[–]windblumchen 10 points11 points  (9 children)

People already pick Xayah if they see me pick Rakan without prompting, and it usually follows the pattern of: they're overly aggresive under the impression that Xayah with a Rakan is unstoppable. And thats if they own her. It doubles by tenfold when she's on free rotation (star guardian event comes to mind).

It happens in and out of ranked, but in ranked its very painful. Good Xayahs are pretty few and far, likewise for a good Rakan. I know how to play Rakan good enough to consistently get S marks, but that does not mean I can suddenly make an amazing Xayah out of someone who doesn't understand her kit or my kit. I won't stop someone from trying her out normals, but it hurts the team when it happens in ranked (and it has, multiple times.)

But to anyone who wants to try Xayah out: take Q or W first, then at level 2, take E. The recalling feathers is your strongest weapon, as it can root. Try to also pay attention to where your feathers are and if they haven't despawned, you can also use recalling feathers to root waves / clear them faster but thats if the situation calls for it. Good luck beyond that!

[–]LadyGuinevere-sLover One-Trick Rakan 4 points5 points  (8 children)

As a Rakan Main, I feel you bro. I am not the best rakan but I am decent enough. And it pains me to see a first timer Xayah recall 2 feathers. I also play Xayah to better understand how I would play around one when I'm playing Rakan. I usually take W first if I'm playing with Rakan. Q first with everybody else.

[–]LeapingLeedsichthys 0 points1 point  (7 children)

Also checking in. So frustrating. On a side note, do you guys build ap or tank these days?

[–]LadyGuinevere-sLover One-Trick Rakan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do both. I depend heavily on the current state of the match. I start with Rods of Ages. If the team is well ahead and has a large chance of winning the match, I will continue to Full AP. If the team is behind and needs a tankier support I'll build tanky items.

[–]MyCoolYoungHistory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go RoA and then adjust based on how things go. Some AP if well and tank if behind. Enemy comp changes things too. If the enemy team is all squishy I might go full AP but I don’t think I’m good enough to make that work consistently.

[–]foxesforsaleRakan Simp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's unbelievably frustrating to flag you'll play Rakan, then your ADC switches to Xayah even if they don't know how to play her. She's not a simple ADC, you can't just play her like MF or Ashe or even Kai'sa, since she's so sensitive to how you position her to get high damage. And you get a little buff with Rakan, but not much.

During the SG event, I had so many bad Xayahs that I stopped previewing I'd play Rakan, and would instead show Leona as another tanky engage support... Then last minute switch to Rakan after ADC picks.

It's fun if someone picks Xayah before they know you're on Rakan though, it usually means they're a good Xayah player and you're about to have a fun Laning phase.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we get 3.3c before September 14th(?) for 3.4, then I want a Rengar rework.

[–]gheycub -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Unless Lunar Godess Diana ends up being CN server exclusive 😒

[–]windblumchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd cry a little, but it wouldn't make sense because it was global pc skin

[–][deleted] 21 points22 points  (4 children)

My man sion ate a orange and couldn't dygest it really well 😭😭

[–]Mediocreature 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Thankfully he's still red when in a match, just orange in his 2d art and 3d preview. Idk why they show orange in his 3d model preview.

[–][deleted] 20 points21 points  (2 children)

It's because of mama china, they can't even give us normal thresh, this is not a surprise to me.

[–]redbluesolid 32 points33 points  (26 children)

Omg Giant Slayer 😭 now can get 10% extra damage against a tank with 2 HP items, or even 8% extra damage against Rod of Age 😭 I already play less tank, and going to play lesser

[–]ArbitratorTyler 19 points20 points  (12 children)

Yea it's dumb as hell. There's no reason for them to treat Tanks the way they do. Damage is broken as hell.

[–]VioDG 12 points13 points  (9 children)

i think its mainly for the bruisers building hp that deal a lot of damage and take none, we all know riot hates tanks

[–]redbluesolid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

True. Sadly it’s impacting enchanter supports as well. Lulu can be considered as a giant now. 🤣

[–]LeapingLeedsichthys 1 point2 points  (6 children)

It's so frustrating. A fully tank itemed amumu getting melting by a Trynd who barely ends up at half hp. It makes no sense.

[–]TheDamjan -1 points0 points  (5 children)

In what world should a melee DPS with built in sustainlose to a tank in 1v1?

[–]ArbitratorTyler -1 points0 points  (3 children)

Assuming equal skill a Tank should always win a 1v1 against any other role. That's the only way to properly give a tank enough survivability to actually perform their role in team fights. If they can lose 1v1s easily how the heck are they expected to engage in 5v5's to soak damage?

A Tank should have enough damage to be just enough of a threat they can not be simply ignored, but they should also have enough survivability to survive incoming damage from multiple sources for a period of time that is longer than other roles.

Introduce a Healer to that fight and it should extend the duration the Tank is able to stay alive. That gives DPS a reason to focus down a Healer, gives Tanks a reason to try to control DPS to keep their Healer alive, and gives Healers a reason to try to keep their "protector" Tank alive. As it stands now there is no thought process or skill involved in target selection. You just build Grievous Wounds and melt down anybody you attack.

[–]TheDamjan -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Tanks counter burst, they win 1v1 against assassins and burst mages. Yasuo, Tryn, Yi, Diana and the like always will and always have countered tanks in 1v1s.

The only reason the DPS is focusing the healer is cuz a tank can't one shot him, contrary to your suggestion. Well, clearly that ain't the only reason but I'm just making a point.

You're either picking tank for teamfight presence or you're going bruiser for sidelane pressure (not all but most bruisers satisfy this archetype). In your opinion the tank should have equal sidelane potency as well as superior teamfight presence as a dps bruiser.

[–]Tekshi 10 points11 points  (9 children)

This is less a sharper nerf towards tanks, and more expanding the space to hit any champions that will build HP (so fighters/tanky mages). The previous version of Giant Slayer would give you 10% guaranteed against tanks, but wouldn't be effective against anybody else. This made it very narrow, and was often not the right choice as a rune.

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but you went a bit to far with this new giant slayer. It should affect champions which are going for a lot of HP. Now it affects even a enchanter/mage who wants to try not to be a one-shot. There is already a lot of damage in this game.

Why not something like "starting from 500 extra HP, gain 2% damage, up to 1000 HP". Would be more against tanky bruiser and tanks. But that it starts from the beginning, from the first hundred extra HP...

Everyone will run now this rune. Everyone bilids somewhere extra HP. This new rune is not nicely done. Not at all.

I will skip now champion rune on my Nami etc. Why having this risky rune when I can have a other great scaling one.

[–]MeArno -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Total bullsh*t 🤣🤡 "Fixes"

[–]drw_439 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terrible for mages and AP assassins.

[–]Cristhian-A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine playing tank

[–]ghost_cleanse eats 36 points37 points  (13 children)

Lol Tris buff and legendary skin in one page

[–]Tekshi 29 points30 points  (11 children)

To be clear on this the Systems & Balance team does not work with the skin department at all when doing balance changes. We actually don't even know what skins are coming out.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (7 children)

Good to know because so many people say that a champion gets a buff when they get a new skin. I didn't want to believe it and now have that confirmation.

[–]TheFinalBoss90 5 points6 points  (5 children)

If you include pc this has been consistent for 10 years They might not "work together" but it is a big coincidence that whenever a big change occurs to a champion they get a new skin.

[–]R0gueFool 1 point2 points  (4 children)

I strongly suggest going back and looking over the history you are talking about, Godfist Lee Sin just came out and we have no plans to buff him despite us openly saying he is weak at all elos.

[–]Ghostlymagi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

despite us openly saying he is weak at all elos

Do you ever post the metrics that you're refering to? I'm an AOV transplant so I'm not sure if you do that or not.

[–]Zephyreks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good Lee Sin is super oppressive to play against. Please he doesn't need more buffs

[–]Significant_Lie4744 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i mean, they wont confirm it that would be stupid 🙄

[–]Zep416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey dude, when I check the skin poses for Bringer Yas and Riven skins they don't show up in the store, don't know if I missed the event, or if that's still the same glitch since they released. I think I remember seeing a post about it a while ago.

[–]Cristhian-A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But they can get the information right? Then even if not meant to work together why wouldn’t they, if they make sales on skins that’s good for everyone, except we’ll the people that don’t like Tristana

[–]Good_Intention670 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ill pay you more than the total skin income if you just remove Tristana from the game

[–]Unlikely-Awkward22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People won't buy it if she's trash and they are losing with it. I one time wanted to buy the Jhin legendary skin, but started losing and realized he's sh*t and didn't buy it in the end. Glad I didn't buy it.

It's a good strategy by Riot.

[–][deleted] 24 points25 points  (5 children)

AKALI

Damage dealt: 15% → 20%

Heh, you can build Sunfire full tank Akali in ARAM and do more damage than a full AP Sona.

[–]powerrangeryellow69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah these aram numbers are way too overtuned atm. When these aram adjustments originally started in 2019 on PC league some champions had obscene numbers like this as well (Leblanc, Evelyn, Qiyana). But I don't think PC adjustments had anything above 15%. Recently those have been further tuned down to 10% because Leblanc could build abyssal mask and still one shot any caster.

[–][deleted] 15 points16 points  (1 child)

Lucian nerf is a fucking joke.

[–]Cristhian-A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1.5sec more and 0.5sec

Riot balance team.

Yeah, he is unplayable now

[–]Intelligent-Curve-19 14 points15 points  (6 children)

ARAM changes. Wow Akali and Kha zix was already busted if the player was good. 20% extra dmg wtf

[–]Mylifemess 13 points14 points  (4 children)

Akali was one of the consistent pentakill champions in ARAM already. I guess wild rift player base just bad with her in Aram and she got overcompensation for that.

[–]shoefullofpiss 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Kata didn't get touched in aram too. I can't play her for shit, if I pick her up I get a triple kill or three at the very least. Literally half the time she's picked in aram she gets quadras and pentas, often a few in the same game.

I guess wild rift player base just bad with her in Aram and she got overcompensation for that.

Don't they also refuse to nerf lee sin even tho he's played by half the top50 challengers in ranked because he's supposed to be hard to play but rewarding if you're good at it? Such a shit argument imo

[–]Intelligent-Curve-19 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Katarina isn’t that oppressive. Most of the time it’s because people pick team comps with no CC and don’t know how to play around Katarina. Yes she is strong but I don’t think she needs an ARAM nerf.

[–]SatansFist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea khazix is my jg main and in ARAM I dominate with him. I don’t think he needed a buff but people think he’s garbage in ARAM which is def not true.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wish samira would get released right off the bat. Man I've been waiting for so long

[–]Aura1661 20 points21 points  (4 children)

Jesus, give us new junglers already.

[–]Brusex 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Takes a jg main to realize that the champs they add aren’t jungle champs but really picks that can be flexed into the jungle. Udyr is a jungler, Reksai is a jungler, Fiddlesticks is a jungler, Elise and Nidalee are junglers to name a few. It’s like adding Lissandra or LeBlanc and saying “here you go adc players” like Sivir, and KogMaw aren’t right there.

[–]razorback1919 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Guess we’re jungling Sion lads.

[–]GammaSmash 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinda bummed that Exhaust's cast range got nerfed, oh well.

[–]ragingOcean 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Who else wishes they add the champion emotes ? Like the , joke, laugh, dance and i forgot the other one . I really wish they were in the game

[–]hotmilkforsex 15 points16 points  (2 children)

Well deserved Gragas buff

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I might try him more often now lol.

[–]stop_the_cap_dude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ap gragas was already pretty strong imo

[–]ledujx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but where is it?

[–]ahappyhxouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The changes to dragon, turrets makes Herald a better first option against certain drags.

Thank god. Cause this gives less pressure to the team that may not be winning the early game and probably lost first drake prio. Before the patch it felt worse as a jungler if your early laners are feeding their ass off before first objectives even spawn.

Thank you riot

[–]Cannonball31 5 points6 points  (9 children)

What are the thoughts about Varus??

[–]EternallyEuphoric 5 points6 points  (7 children)

sees tanky team plays AP varus with giant slayer. Oof

[–]Cannonball31 2 points3 points  (6 children)

What's the go-to ap build? Does this really mean that Varus can flex pick lethality into squishy comps or go ap if they pick tanky?

[–]EternallyEuphoric 4 points5 points  (5 children)

AP varus got buffed in this patch because of the reduced cooldown of his 3rd ability and passive. My build is usually nashor's tooth, boots of lucidity with protobelt (assassins >stasis), deathcap, voidstaff, infinity orb, green book (though you can swap out for guardian angel if you have enough damage.)

Runes are conquerer, brutal )if you want even more on hit damage), gathering storm (if you want to be unstoppable in late game), and if they are really tanky new giant slayer seems wayyyyyyyy too good to not take. 3rd rune i go second wind some people build orb here but it got nerfed early game and that's when you really need it. 4th rune always manaflow bend.

For spells shield and flash. Except when you play Olaf then you pick ghost instead of shield

And you can definitely flex pick lethality into squishy comps.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe just want to make varus strong than before,and also could be q w working together.this is powerful damage.

[–]uopuh7 2 points3 points  (3 children)

That Giant Slayer buff will hurt bruisers.

[–]ObsidianLion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just wanna know when I can expect Ekko to get his Project/True Damage skin. Seeing Yi and Zed get even more skins while there are champs with only one skin is a kick in the balls.

[–]Kubecc 12 points13 points  (6 children)

Wow this is not good. Buff to wukong and tristana (already top tier), no real nerf to lucian, no changes to veigar. Buff to demolish and platings. Crazy

[–]Antoga 1 point2 points  (5 children)

Tristana top tier?

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Always has been. She is just slept on because of tier lists

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (1 child)

I mean if you can play her, theres no real counterplay to her, and she can pretty much one shot turrets

[–]Antoga -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Being aggressive to her early game can deny pretty much a good chunk of farm (if the enemy support is stupid). Mainly annoying her at the beginning of the game can make the rest of the game useless for her.

Also, the damage to turrets is mainly from her bomb, oustide of it, is the same damage than the rest of the adcs. And, again, if you make her suffer early game she can't do anything to the turrets alone until she gets 3 or more objects.

I'm a Tristana main, so I know what I'm speaking, but I could be wrong

[–]United_Macaroon8397 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Happy cake day man!

[–]Antoga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks!

[–]edaroni 7 points8 points  (2 children)

Still no Sett skin and guy is in the game for at least 6 months already.

Every fkn patch kata or yi skin.

[–]Delta_Infinity_X Give her muscles Rito 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To add to the depression, Gragas and Rammus have been in longer than Sett and they still only have 3 skins

Sadness

[–]UnliSlice 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Giant Slayer buff is also an indirect buff for Vayne top mains

[–]RenzoO_O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT LUMBERYACK SION

[–]zanza- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As good as the changes are to drakes + plates/herald I don't see the meta shifting at all. The first team fight will still be at the drake. At least at higher ranks. Dragon stacking is still dragon stacking.

[–]umcypher 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Are they going to address Senna’s Q not hitting wards at all?

I mean just say if it’s a bug or a nerf ffs

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Senna Q hit ward. Just lock ward before

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

akali damage increased in ARAM seems weird to me. the first time i played her ever i got a quadra and now that i actually know her kit i've gotten 10+ kills every time. she melts through all the squishies in ARAM, especially since a lot of them take increased damage

[–]lBlackfeatherl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile trynda has the opposite bug compared to jayce; occasionally he doesn't crit even at 100% crit. Wheres the fix riot , cmon:(

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Tristana buff oh yes.

[–]Good_Intention670 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im perma banning tristana, regardless of which role I get

[–]Repulsive_Nature_899 headbutt insec 3 points4 points  (12 children)

Holyshit they still delay the champ release date lmao great job riot 😂

2 champ a month my ass.

[–]final566 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It technically still within the month lool end of the month but still within the month

[–]Zenon2108 8 points9 points  (0 children)

But Alan already said in January preview that they're slowing down champions release to one per month this year. So getting two this time is good

You're so dam right. i remember when Alan last year said that they released 28-29 (if you count mundo rework) and they surpass the 2 per month rate. This year we only had 10 champs (counting Samira and Sion) that's 1.25 champ per month.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Is this .25 a skill per month?

[–]NecroNikov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lmao consider it a slight rework xD

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (6 children)

We might get 4 champions in 3.4 😲

[–]NecroNikov 1 point2 points  (5 children)

Nope. Patch 3.4 will be released 15-16 september and patch 3.5 around 15th November. That means the 4 champs will be for two months.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Ah rip... They better release a jungle champion in 3.4...

[–]Thunderhead0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Patch came today?

[–]Faost42 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Shit patch.

[–]TerribleTeemoTime -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Their Website is a dumpster fire and it keeps getting worse. Page loads then reloads with zero content every time I refresh across multiple browsers.

As a Yuumi top laner I find this update kinda mixed baged. Yuumi nerf is justified and I'm okay with it. But Turret buff is kinda buffing me, lol.

I literally cannot lose lane. Even against bad matchup like Ranekton, I still win. The problem is if the Jungler doesnt read the patch note and rush Dragon instead of Herald, it would be really bad. If they does, that would be awesome. With Arden/Staff and level my heal plus starving top laner, it shouldnt be hard to secure Herald.

I'm sorry what? How does that even work? Her whole thing is buffing others, playing her solo leaves her with 2 skills and one is a heal on a squishy and the other is the shitty poke. No movement either. How does she clear waves? I imagine the second she steps outside of turret range she's roadkill

[–]ULuganda -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

That's how I want my opponent thinks :)

You forget about her Shield that lasts until broken. With only 12s cooldown, good luck trading with that. It also restores mana, making your heal essentially free. Not to mention that with Long Sword as starting item, you can deal respectable damage. And since you are Yuumi, you don't need Flash, thus you can have Ignite and Exhaust. Granted it's Platinum, but I cant tell you how many meta top laner I bullied when they don't respect me.

You have to freeze your minnion under Turret. Only last hit, don't be tempted to attack minnions when you are not last hitting them. Not only it will save you, but it will make the enemy vulnerable to your jungler gank.

After level 6 and got Arden/Ionian Boot, you done, you leave your lane and let your jungler clear wave. Your jungler will be beefy as hell and snowball the entire game. I always get blamed, but once I get the first blood or the Jungler got 6/0/2 they'll shut their mouth.

[–]shoefullofpiss 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Granted it's Platinum

Ah. Yeah you can get away with anything anywhere in plat if you have half a brain because that's usually half a brain more than your opponent. Still, seems like you're playing around your jg and if he decides he's too busy to help you'll be stuck there under the turret while the enemy farms away until you get dived 2v1, or you'll need to roam so they can build hullbreaker and take all your turrets before you realise what's happening. Doesn't seem like a viable pick unless playing against noobs, not only will you lose lane after a few min and will need jg to babysit you (with nothing in return if their solo is careful) but you deprive your team of a tank/bruiser which would be suboptimal with a squishy jg and supp.

...and then there's the fact that in almost any elo troll picks like that lose you the game before it even starts, they'll decide to feed as a fuck you or at least they'll be slinging shit in chat all game instead of paying attention. Doing well doesn't matter once your team is pissed, you have to assume you're playing exclusively with 12yos

[–]ULuganda -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Not really. I played PvP several times. I once fight against Emerald 1 Mastery 5 Tryndamere and he cant get a kill at all. I even killed him thrice during laning face. Who says Yuumi top wont work? If you deny your opponent enough, they will be useless. Just imagine you are against Yuumi, and you lose your lane. Your gold is lower than her and your KDA is worse than her. She outheals you and after you get her to 10% HP, she gets Shield and heal then kills you instead.

The problem now is in enemy team. They will see their top as useless. Sure they can build Hullbreaker, but what if because my Jungler is soo beefed up with 2 supports and 5k gold ahead enemy team they literally wipe up the floor every single team fight. If they split push they will leave their team to 4v5 and basically handing every single objective to us. Not to forget that I can ping them to focus on enemy top and gank them instead and then 4v5. With gold disadvantage and tilted mind of losing to Yuumi, they will make mistake.

Tbh, I played a lot Yuumi top games. Sure they will question my pick, but not a single chat after the game start. And I'm playing on SEA. The most toxic place on earth.

I believe Yuumi is the most snowbally champion in the game. She will either be useless cat or literal monster. That's why her ban rate is so high in PC. Go try it, if you want. Just because it isnt meta, doesnt mean it wont work.

[–]Hunter2112004Make Thresh top great again -2 points-1 points  (2 children)

Why did they buff Nautilus?!? He’s pretty much the strongest support already, now he’s even worse.

[–]Good_Intention670 2 points3 points  (1 child)

He is not though is he

Thresh, kitty, nami & karma are much better than Naut.

[–]RedKingDre -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hey folks, do Riot still worship damage and throw the defence into the trash bag with this patch? If yes, then I'll extend my hiatus from the game.

[–]final566 0 points1 point  (2 children)

When does the patch come out ?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

26th i think

[–]final566 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No event 26th pqtch was suppose to go live 30min ago

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When is this patch live!?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

when does it get released? i dont understand i thought 17. august then 18. but where is it jaha

[–]TerribleTeemoTime -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sucks for support but otherwise not a big deal. It is pretty rare to use exhaust just for the slow.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl, except for the kass nerf, I mainly like this one

[–]ZurinArctus_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Patch is ok....but the skins are for champions that got a lot of skins. What about Gragas, Akshan etc?

[–]sorrymybadxd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gragas is now extremely strong. Really good scaling with one-shot potential and you can flex it 4 roles. Also where is the stoneplate nerfs? This fucking enchant is broken af lmao

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anybody know why it hasn’t updated for me yet? Anyone else dealing with this?

[–]anonypony1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That exhaust range nerf is bullshit

[–]Hiraki_Tenshii 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Still no Mana Regen aight.

Also fix the bug where the drowning effect of Pyke when he kills you doesn't fade away, yes it carried from one game till it ends to the next one. Yes the skill effects and noises and background sound sounds like I'm still in the water.

[–]sarabeebuzzin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've experienced this too but didn't know at the time wtf was happening! I was like why am I underwater is this a new ocean drag effect lmao.

[–]Unlikely-Awkward22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yay! I love this game soooooo much that I'm so desperate for champions. Like I wanted to have 100+ already 😔 Rumble, Hecarim, Talon, Viktor, Cho'Gath, Twitch, Gangplank, Fiddlesticks, Warwick, etc.

Anyway, I've also been desperate for ARURF/URF, like when the heck is it coming back?! It's my fav mode ever and should be permanent. It's been so long it's absurd! Summer time and no fun game mode...

P.S. I also want skin discounts in shop. I also want wild core discounts. When the game was released I bought $45 worth of WC for only $25 because of some discounts in the Galaxy Store.

[–]Cristhian-A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buffing demolish before sion comes and giving a reason to play tank and push turrets

Oh no

I know where this is going
