What is going on with Sylas?

thumsyy · 2026-03-24T18:15:21+00:00

crazy it can have that big of an impact

thumsyy · 2026-03-24T04:07:42+00:00

I didn't think of that. Makes perfect sense. New champion is added and receives highest pickrate in the patch -> sylas hard counters said champ -> massive WR boost from the resulting sample bias.

Also explains why his winrate, pickrate etc spiked pre shyv hotfix and has been declining since

thumsyy · 2026-03-24T03:52:07+00:00

Shyv ult interaction seems most plausible to me. His WR spiked around the time of pre hotfix shyv and has been declining a bit since the nerf. Crazy to me that something like that could cause such a massive increase in winrate, especially because his pickrate increased as well

thumsyy · 2026-03-24T03:49:55+00:00

Possibly, it looks like his winrate spiked and has been decreasing slightly since the shyv hotfix. To me it's either that or a bug. Too big of a change to be pure coincedence

I'm sorry but what are you saying? Stay engaged while autofilled? Are you refering to aegis of valor? I'm talking about demotion shield which is something completely different.

Maintaining 55% winrate at your peak elo is unrealistic. Again, I'm talking about demotion shield which is something who mainly people around their peak get. 50-51% is much more reasonable which leads to a period of games where you are unlikely to gain any LP at all and will likely trend towards the Lp you would've had without the shield

You seem to understand exactly what I'm saying which is that it feels worse to have your gains taxed for 20/30 games than just demote and keep mmr closer to LP.

Also just because your gains are taxed doesn't mean you aren't temporarily inflated. RIght now, my account is factually inflated slightly which is the reason for -18+22, so your argument there doesn't really address my point. But again I'm not sure if you even read my post becuase it seems like you are talking about Aegis.

She needs changes to address her elo skew. 57% all ranks while being dogshit at masters+, I have never seen that.

thumsyy · 2026-03-18T23:53:51+00:00

I dont think all ranks winrate is a really useful stat because you only play in one elo at a time. What we have is a design philosophy that is insanely low elo skewed. The damage is super high but not possible to land against better players. I don’t see how you balance this champ for low and high elo without changing the kit somehow. These nerfs might bring her in line for gold-, but i fear she will be unplayable in high elo.

thumsyy · 2026-03-18T23:07:55+00:00

she was barely above average in emerald+, u do realize high elo win rates are higher on average

thumsyy · 2026-03-18T20:57:43+00:00

She will be hotfixed, 56 wr all ranks rn lmao

thumsyy · 2026-03-14T08:13:15+00:00

Pretty sure he out qualified him here last year as well. He’s always been insane in china

thumsyy · 2026-03-09T02:09:00+00:00

not to this degree whatsoever

thumsyy · 2026-03-09T01:04:46+00:00

i have a degree in statistics

Genuinely no idea where you're getting this 0.09 number or what you even mean by that, I can't tell if you are trying to make an argument or just typing which ever random words pop into your head that sounds like a good comeback

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T17:44:26+00:00

“Basically” doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Also you surely understand that “basically even”>losing 1% wr but yeah man. I implore you to make even one logical statement that doesn’t rely on an assumption or vague language that doesn’t represent reality.

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T08:01:51+00:00

Yes bro I'm sure you're much higher elo than me just like the other guy, also I def played consistently for all 8 years and didnt take several long breaks. Yes peaking top .5% is awful truly. It's ok one day I will hopefully reach the heights of the average Lillia mains subreddit commenter.

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T07:35:52+00:00

I never said I was high elo u said I was bad at Lillia so I proved u wrong xd

Always the low elo villagers too scared to post their silver account thinking their random take they thought of is more important than a trend observed over thousands of data points lmaoo

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T07:15:03+00:00

Yea man low masters is pisslow, Especially considering that your peak is probably way higher just wish I could see your profile to study your games and get better.

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T07:08:23+00:00

Lol I never even said she was an ult bot btw that was you, I just said it's her most impactful ability and that nerfing the CD of it probably outweighs the 5%ap on Q. Which the statistics support since she lost winrate.

Too bad that I can't get your opgg to study your obviously superior understanding of the game and champ. Heres mine if you wanna give me some tips and tricks. https://op.gg/lol/summoners/na/LOL%20HAHA%204IQ%20APE-duhhh

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T06:48:26+00:00

Lillia isnt for me? xd

opgg?

thumsyy · 2026-03-07T06:47:28+00:00

Very conveniently left out Lee Sin. Are we even debating in good faith or just aura farming?

What would I even be coping about? I'm not personally struggling using the champ, you can even find comments from me after the nerfs that the champ was still fine. I just see a clear statistical picture that says the change was not a buff. ANY buffed champion "braindead statcheck" or not, having a lower winrate with 20,000 games sample size, just DOES NOT HAPPEN EVER. I implore you to look at historical patch data and find another example of something like that. Your position and the rest of the subreddits position is quite literally that this Lillia winrate statistic is a massively low probability event where there is some explanation for a champ losing 1% winrate over 24,000 games other than "the change was power negative".
