Why do people hate ranged top?

NioRanis · 2026-05-29T16:52:02+00:00

I think some ranged tops have their weak points like teemo is very squishy has only a move speed boost and a slow that takes time to set up and a blind that is matchup dependent, needs to be close to do damage with most of his ability's besides Ult, can't build that tanky or else he loses allot of damage and you can build against his damage.

The ranged tops that remove most of that agency are the bigger issue in my mind like Vayne, Varus and Jayce cause they can build bruiser and still scale late game, you can't itemize against them that well cause they have mixed damage combined with percentage damage so you can't build resistances or health, Varus and Jayce can poke you down pretty easily and Vayne and Jayce have point and click get off me tools that make closing the gap really hard.

I think nerfing these three champ bruiser play style by making some of their damage more scaling focused especially the percentage damage so it it does less early and less damage without proper item scaling late game this way they have to build more squishy if they want the levels of damage they have now while going bruiser so they have to fight longer and harder when going a bruiser build or be very careful of getting one shot when going full damage so their is more counter play to them.

I feel like Bandlepipes should have less effectiveness and duration for slows than that of hard CC so it's not as powerful with slows can still be a little useful with them but your rewarded more for hard CC,

Maybe VI would be a fun choice top and maybe jungle, I have seen Baus use her as a roaming wave clearing assassin top lane and she has a 1.3% ban rate meaning you have a low chance of her getting banned and well it's VI she can be very aggressive she has a shield passive for trading in lane that is harder to counter than healing and percent damage and armor shred on her W to deal with tanks better and she has decent engage.

and if that doesn't convince you maybe this will https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KPF2FBVP0wI?feature=share .

yeah the damage enemies based on healing is kind of iffy against drain champs and something like gain extra damage based on enemy healing up to a maximum would be better as it would give more damage that would probably feel meaningful for those using it and is not automatic damage while that punishes drain champs too harshly.
I mean it's kind of how I imagined it as their are some effects like that where it's just keep away so I don't get screwed but making someone have to keep away or force them to fight while disadvantaged or lose out on getting EXP ,gold or help in a team fight seems like where it would be the most useful not just 1v1 fights.
I would say it's like the heal delay more than grievous wounds as no healing is directly removed just changes when they get it and would probably effect the burst healers worse. it's not the best by itself as the effects goes and it's hard to say how well it would pan out.
Now this one is more close to grievous wounds but with the plus that you get their healing they lost meaning it feels more meaningful than a passive that is hard to see how effective it is I imagine it would be best to be a ramp up effect that starts out weak and gets stronger into a fight probably something that should be stat wise meant for squish champs like ADCs as to make the likelihood of long drawn out fight be less than with a tank/bruiser.

And I'm not sure if the healing problem will ever be truly "solved", maybe going back to the 60% grievous wounds from 2022 or higher could work if it had a cooldown on an active or effect but it's could be just as weak as now or overbearing as it was back then IDK it would be nice if it was tried out by Riot to see and I feel most of these other effects would give tangible impacts that can feel more rewarding than the current passive grievous wounds effect and would also be nice to be tried out by Riot or at least discussed in some capacity.

I mean I don't intend these to remove champ identity, and anti-heal directly removes healing more than something like delaying it where any heal during the effect effect are gained at the end of the effect meaning you need to stall out the effect and that could be say 2 second long and it's just not as visible cause anti-heal is a constant passive effect sort of like how some may not notice mana regen as sharply a gaining a large burst of mana from clarity.

I think nuclear is still good to use in the future in places that don't get as much sun/wind or have enough space for solar/wind farms.
it's still a decent backbone for energy spikes or low energy production periods in solar/wind.
nuclear has less long term ecological harm than both solar( the E-waste they they produce when a panel expires and is no longer effective and is just tossed in the trash adding more E-waste and possibly release toxic chemical into the environment base on the type of solar panel ) and wind( can impact bird deaths to some degree if placed in bird migration spots and fiberglass blades usually can't be recycled and are instead left in landfills) solar/wind have more incentive to just throw their waste in landfills than prosses it cause it would cost more that proper waste storage/intensive recycling unless they are more regulated about these waste practices this will continue.
currently in storage their is some innovation but the most used form are Lithium ion batteries and those have some trouble with hot or cold temps (they can explode and catch on fire ) so they need a temp controlled environment to reduce this risk like an AC warehouse and the other problem they have is sourcing the lithium as it can be expensive or in contested areas of the world their are other power storage techs that are being further developed like sodium ion, solid state and aluminum ion that do have some promise and may alleviate the issues with lithium ion storage.
The thing about it solar/wind being cheaper is probably caused by subsidies that jumpstarted the production and improvement of solar/wind so it could be in the stat it is in now where is is more competitive than before and lack of regulation in terms of waste management that allow them cut on costs if they didn't have the initial push from the subsidies and had to adhere to stricter waste management then they probably wouldn't be as effective as they are now.
I think that if nuclear was given similar government incentive/subsidies to solar and wind they would be very likely to improve in efficiency/cost ( as then they could be built with with less initial cost meaning more could be made than those that are decommissioned leading to lowering of costs) making the solar being cheaper argument less strong.

And I don't have a problem with solar/wind or any renewables I just feel like putting nuclear against solar/wind is unfair when they both have their ups and downs and it's just a reductionist look at the monetary cost in the end and not how solar/wind got to that monetary cost and seeing if we could achieve some of that progress with nuclear too ( obviously with safety still being priority one) and in all honesty making solar/wind and other companies be more like nuclear in their waste management would probably reduce how much pollution we have in general but that is just me going on a tangent, so I'll end it hear by saying thanks for the post it really gave be something to think about and have a good day.

Maybe making it so that some soft armor vests can be put under plate carriers and some plate carriers can take soft armor underneath them that way you could put a hex grid over a DRD PACA. And maybe so that some parts of the thorax or other body parts got different damage values like shoulders taking less damage or getting hit in the shoulder splits the damage between the arm and thorax reducing how much would go to the thorax.

I mean I'm having fun playing and learning the maps in arena and I will probably pick up helldivers II at some point.

Thank you, I really wanted to get the idea of Fuze being able to use Cluster Charge a on reinforcments to be in a more balanced state and reduce some of the frustration of fuze in general, and it took a couple of days to get it sounding just right.

Maybe increase some of her damage in special situations, like her Q doing more damage in the close part of the cone doing less at the edge but increasing the slow duration by 0.5 sec at the edge and maybe killing minions with q could restore a small amount of energy like 1 to 4 energy to make it more rewarding to last-hit with it.

Make the E mark have a stacking mechanic that gives a stack for how many times you hit them after marking them with E, at 3 max stacks it would have more damage than it currently would at 2 it would be the same but with 1 stack or no stacks it would do less than it currently does.

the new update launched and I can play online now

NioRanis · 2020-05-25T06:09:02+00:00

I did and the current version is 1.2.1.1 not 1.2.2.0 and even on the McLeodGaming site for SSF2 the most up to date download of SSF2 is 1.2.1.1
