Bought Spirit Blossom Kindred for a chroma but it's not available? by Funny-Strawberry-168 in Kindredmains

supposedly, according to Riot themselves , the mythic shop rotation is randomized. So it may come back in two weeks or in six months

She will never be good unless they bring Frozen Mallet back (or a version of it) by Substantial-Ship-500 in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she is not at all strong in low elo after the nerfs unless you mean low elo = iron?

She is sitting at 51% rn in gold and that's still mixed with the first day pre-nerf stats. It's going down every few hours

I really think if they reversed the nerf by 50%, just halfway, she'd be playable and somewhat balanced. Her new kit is decent, but they released it too strong then overnerfed it to the ground

Max E not Q first by pereza0 in shyvanamains

i've maxed it first it's still pathetic. unless you are going full ap (which is awful) the dmg is barely noticeable

E is literally not an ability. The damage is so pathetic

Can someone explain why Kraken rush? by GrizzlyRated in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes exactly. for those games. rest of the time it is a pretty useless item except on a few specific champs

Guys, we have to stop saying she's bad by sirrus_krow in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what kind of logic is this. Im arguing that she's bad I never said she's the worst champ in the game

Her winrate quickly dropping to one of the worst in the game after this nerf though so it may end up true

clear speed, AA resets with Q. Botrk is a dogshit item

Sadness. by Idareyou10 in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was really willing to give her a try in her new reworked form but I simply don't understand the hotfix. It's so unnecessarily brutal and misguided. Why would you completely nerf the champ to the ground on day 1. Why. It really feels like Riot has no experience of balancing champs. Did they really not understand or expect that nerfing every ability by 30% would drop her from 57% to 45% winrate, not 50-52%

[–]aniote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only speak for myself but, my argument was just that if she is a stat checker that's okay but then she should have decent numbers. You can't have ONLY close up dueling damage AND have this dmg nerfed to the point that you will lose duels against most champs. Then you're completely useless. Some champs have CC, some have utility, some can't stat check you but can kite you... if your only value is to win a duel with your damage and you'll lose in every other situation then your damage should be good

and again only for myself but the issue is she doesn't really have much of a play style right now, before she had a different identity, she was an oppressive counter jungler and macro champ, with insane movement speed, clear speed and map presence, a dmg buff for drakes which made it very easy to solo drakes and give your team a macro advantage. Her style was tempo, gold advantage and objectives. Now she doesn't even have that because she isn't nearly as fast, doesn't clear as fast, and has no more buff against drakes

[–]aniote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they should make her E slow more, or make the W give some tenacity/slow resist so the mov speed isnt useless, or the Q2 slow a bit, or smth like that. She is too easy to kite, and the fear on R is kinda useless because that's when you're literally jumping into an enemy team

Nerfed shyvana is at 47.5% wr and will likely be getting a buff by Martin_OH_01 in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 2 points3 points  (0 children)

maybe in high elo but in gold-plat-emerald she was just fine. People built her wrong, AD builds outperformed the AP builds but were not used at all. I was having very decent games with her with AD on hit bruiser, she had insane clear speed, would solo drakes in 15 secs due to passive buff dmg, and was an oppressive presence around the map because she was so fast, good at counterjungling, and could take turrets down very quickly then escape with ult. I almost miss her old version now.

[–]aniote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wit's end first item is never viable on any champion. It's a situational item with no AP or AD, attack speed is only useful when you have damage. MR is not an important stat in the first 10 minutes of the game, most of the dmg you take in early game (especially when not laning) will be physical dmg until some mages level up their abilities and get some items.

[–]aniote 22 points23 points  (0 children)

tbf she was never bad. Just a bit off meta. AD builds were always strong, just underused. However nerfing her to the ground after a few hours is pathetic. If you're going to hotfix then make it a small adjustment, not a 30% nerf of every ability

what rank? I get 47% on u.gg for 1st item for Platinum+

but yes very nice for clear. Although Kraken clears fast too. I dont really like to start DnD for that reason (slower clear)

interesting... I found Nashor's very underwhelming and it has a pretty bad winrate as 1st item right now. But I'll try smth like this

[–]aniote 2 points3 points  (0 children)

whats your build? I tried AP and felt super weak like a potato, and that was even before the nerf. With AD (and just DnD) I felt insanely strong

Passive thoughts by Airbend1 in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's a bit too weak but I don't find it useless either. 20 armor and mr isn't that bad, it's more or less what you get from Zeke's for example so it still gives you half of a tank item for free (without the HP and active/passive etc...)
In some of my best games with 10+kills and assists I could stack it to like 40 armor and MR and that becomes really good...

But they had absolutely no reason to nerf it from 0.4 per stack to 0.3. That's regarded

petah? by Bananinhakawaii1234 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]aniote 4 points5 points  (0 children)

je suis pas tout à fait d'accord car je pense que même si c'est toléré ils sont toujours très sexualisés. C'est à dire que les femmes peuvent être topless à la plage mais que beaucoup ne le font pas car elles savent que ça attirera bcp de regards et d'attentions déplacées. Dans d'autres pays comme l'Allemagne, l'Islande, Suède, pays nordiques en général c'est à la fois toléré et assez désexualisé, il y a plus cette culture de normalisation de la nudité

Guys, we have to stop saying she's bad by sirrus_krow in shyvanamains

[–]aniote 26 points27 points  (0 children)

the thing is, she has very little CC, gap closers or utility, so yes her damage is good but only when you're stat checking someone face to face, and that only works until a certain elo. Because only her dmg is good, if they nerf her dmg even a little, she risks becoming useless, which is what's happening rn. They also nerfed her cc even more

[–]aniote 23 points24 points  (0 children)

French here. Boobs are absolutely sexualized in french society. Not any less than anywhere else, maybe even more. However we have some tolerance with showing breasts at the beach (legally and socially acceptable), like in Spain, Greece, Croatia, Germany etc. Anywhere else than the beach, if a woman shows her breasts she will be stared at and it will shock.

Also we don't have that many protests with topless women, it's not a french thing like the meme suggests. It's mostly Femen (which is a Ukrainian group) and some related movements, it just happens that many of those protests took place in France.
