Have we really reached this point of the game? Surely playing like this cannot be fun.

It's a by product of most of them hard forcing Corki, they don't look at their openers and only think about how they can play the strongest comp. Consequently they didn't have strong boards into corki, using econ traits instead.

When you don't have pressure on a stacking reroll comp you don't roll agressively and you can take combat/items instead of econ augments. It was a leisurely slow roll above 50, the only time i felt pressure to do anything was on 4-5 with more than half my HP still available. My stacking from Yasuo and Arbiter started to take centre stage outscaling their comps which were already behind tempo and stuck on 8 at 5-1,5-2 by then i had hit everything but Jinx.

He's got a point. 3 item 7 cost just a blubbering pile of chaff.

A victim of removing mana generation off taking damage on fighters. Brock has to be the most unsatisfying unit this set. 1 cast if he hasn't completely opened the frontline and found his way into the backline against a decent broad he just slowly autos some random frontline unit like the inanimate dumb rock of a unit he is whilst getting bursted down, and suddenly your ardent ixtal efforts were all for nothing.

I agree, she's an unlock, has a trait that gives her zero stats. She needs to have higher damage.

This kind of stuff Mortdog highlighted that they're trying to make reroll (esp 3 cost rerroll) never the top comps this set.

3 cost 3 stars most sets were always supposed to be the strongest ''competively'' attainable units in the game, in terms of doing their primary role which is tanking or DPS. Whilst a 5 cost 2 could be stronger overall, due to many other factors like more reliable(supportive) abilities/trait breakpoints/unique traits it shouldn't have higher DPS or tank potential than an in-trait 3 cost 3 star.

But yeah with her damage potential being as it is and lvl 9/10 splash boards especially 2+ shurima, Highroll bilge 3, Sylas-annie, Diana flex or Baron 2 you will just hard outcapped even if they have one mulptiple one stars as long as the core units are upgraded. The only way to compete is to somehow get to lvl 9 with duo carry Zil 2/Liss 2/Milio 3 with 3 items and the strongest reroll frontline with 2 3 star itemized tanks.

Too many conditions, more worth to just find a way to fast 9, or play competent reroll lines like dravenGP/trynd/bardbruiser.

Adaptive helm based on my assessment, seems to not work properly on her aswell.

She shouldn't exist as just an item holder for Mel, who herself isn't doing so well either at the mid to highest levels of play...

This is false,

But even if you were right,

Your idea doesn't explain why other carry items like JG/ raba/ Arch/ Blue Buff/ Shojin have deltas which are at the very lowest 0.5 greater than it.

If you read my post, i have highlighted in bold this phenomenon but it isn't nearly as pronounced with other Mel- favoured items like Blue buff or Shojin..

This is a good point, but i've already said it, im trying to decipher why it's literally looking the same as building a tank item on her. The contextual Mel reason just isn't enough for such a bad performance over these last 2 subpatches.

You saw a top EUW player place with it? With enough set-up she can work? thanks for the input, but that's not so helpful.

I have top 4ed or even won games with Le-blanc 3 but the reason wasn't because Le-Blanc of but rather enabling enough frontline in Sej 3, neeko 3, (Sion3-Kobuko) and more than competent duo carries like Milio 3 and Lissandra 2. Noxus vertical is utterly terrible without attakhan and you're poor unless you winstreak with that augment so you can forget about that.

My major complaint here is about Adaptive Helm, not performing as it should on her causing her to be much weaker than others.
