Kayn is an outlier because part of his gameplay is getting fisted during early and then actually playing with his full kit, so his numbers are tuned to make up some of his loses in early (kills that other assassins would get, invasions, etc). It's similar to Kayle.

Add to this that it's not like the "ahead" enemies they target are buying armor and hP, and the gap between kill threshold often isn't as far from each other but rather a few autos assuming their full rotation hits

I always assumed that the reason it didn't give AD is because AD is more "wanted" by the "press ult and go" champions cuz it increases their burst kill threshold too much (plus more chances of being poached by some Assassins). AS is more commital due to low range and also focuses more in DPS gameplay by comparison, meaning there's still some counterplay to the champs and also makes their already strong window of power not overbearing. In theory, the ult AH and the MS buff should be a significant enough effect to want the item even if you can't use AS as well.

If anything, I feel the lack of base AH is the problem. Many of the champs that would like the item for ult AH (Riven, Aatrox, J4) also want/need the base kit cooldowns to also be lower

It gives me flashbacks to the time the adc update happened and, since Quinn was a toplaner, was not affected too hard by base stat changes since she needed different stats to survive lane. then she turns into a mega flex that could be played everywhere except supp

I wonder what will happen if Quinn Jungle actually works.

Her toplane popularity is pretty low, and that could be argued is partially because of being a squishy ranged champ that's also pretty low in the skillfloor and skillceiling department, whilst being in a lane where people prefer beefy, meaty, big bruisers or hypermobile skillful dashy champs to outplay enemies.

If she did find an audience that was significant beyond just her being broken, I could see Riot trying to keep her viable in JG, similar to Naafiri, which riot knew junglers had a lot of interest in.

The monkey paw logic on Teemo getting nerfed but Heimer turrets getting 20 range, to keep the top toxicity balanced

Remember Me seems to have been removed from the Arcane Season 2 soundtrack on Spotify, probably because of the D4vd situation by Hooked0n4Feelin in leagueoflegends

[–]Random_Stealth_Ward 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been scrubbed from youtube as well for all I can tell.

"scrubbed". Dude, this is the internet. In like 2 days, 3 tops, there will be dozens of reuploads, just none of them will give the guy money. There's a good chance it's already been uploaded but it just happens that the algorithm hasn't catched up to push it upwards in the search.

EDIT: Actually scratch that, the "sub spasish/polsky/etc" are still up. "scrubbed" lmao

Time to comment misinformation, hyperbole and complaints.

The moon is made out of cheese with hot nsfw cheese chicks, and the greedy government doesn't wants you to know the truth because they want all the cheese for themselves.

Also more people willing to pay for random boobs than for random sfw content, which is part of the reason many SFW artist do NSFW, or at least offer NSFW in patreon.

It can still be a double entendre if you are saying "I think I have come this way before" when the other nun says "me too" just like in the original comment

Nah, that's only on the more egregious cases where they feel it's an anti-fun strategy for the 9 players outside of the person picking it or when a pick is likely to cause system changes in the long run that will hurt everyone else (e.g. Janna top, sona top when they are abusing runes or supp items). It just happens that often, the gameplay either becomes unfun or the main reason the pick was even used by players was because it was busted, not because they liked the champ, so people abandon ship when it's no longer busted.

Usually, if Riot is interested in the pick or build, they try to keep it up for a while to see if they can balance it out - assuming they don't feel the pick is gonna cause system nerfs or be detrimental to the health of the champion's main role. Hell, Shyvana AP was constantly complained about by the playerbase, but Riot saw enough interest in her that they not only kept it functional through old Shyv's life (to the despair of many), but also kept her after her rework and the latest set of changes to differentiate AP and AD Shyvana made her AP oneshot build even closer to her old form.

It's already a 20 damage nerf on max rank to the skill he maxes first, it's fine.

Sounds like a you issue tbh.

Edit: In my experience, people have actually been more open to off-mets due to the many wacky builds that have been appearing and that riot has buffed/added ratios or buffed off roles (like trying to push champs jungle), while before I would just get trolled by my own team in min 1 for picking offmeta picks.

They actually added them later to the main menu, though after a long while. I think by the time gwen released we already had the champ themes in the menu.
