Hey Phreak, quick question. You think Sylas will get some post-Worlds buffs if his pick/ban after these nerfs is low? I'm a lowly Gold shitter and I miss being able to play him. (I know you don't have direct impact on balance, just wondering about your thoughts.)
I think Riot will generally be committed to finding ways to get Sylas's win rate and pro playrate both to acceptable levels. This is probably going to be quite difficult: He does have about 5 auto-attack resets after all.
But things like removing him from one role (flex picks are pro-specific) and opening up counter-picks are often effective.
No guarantees it gets perfect, but they've made headway on champions like Ryze and Azir.
Was Heimer a deliberate ommission? Were the buffs not enough to bring him back?
Also is Pyke just a soloQ terror that even with EU's love for him he'll not return?
Unlike most episodes, I didn't have the ability to react to how the patch actually landed: This was recorded on Wednesday morning, basically the same time the patch itself came out. So without a way to see how big the changes were outside of guesswork, I erred on the side of "people don't tend to play this champ in pro, so that's probably going to remain true."
