If I recall, Viego is manaless for similar reasons as Yasuo and Yone. The fact that by default, they’re spamming out a really weak ability (their Q) that scales moderately well with stats. And since Viego’s Q is his only form of sustain, even more reason for him to be manaless.

At least, that’s what I recall August saying whenever he was asked. But it’s been a couple weeks since that stream, so I’m not 100% sure if I’m remembering right.

Edit I’ll emphasize that I’m not entirely sure the reasons I gave are the correct ones. I do remember Riot August being asked why Viego was manaless during a stream, and I think he said it was a similar enough reason as to why Yasuo and Yone are both manaless. But I’m not entirely sure if my memory is correct.

> I don't believe we are looking to do work on him

I asked since me along with the majority of Veigar players were under the assumption he would receive buffs due to Mark Yetter/Scruffy saying he would be looked into on his earlier tweets in this month.

just out of curiosity... how has camille not been touched at all? she has been so strong for so long. I also agree winrate is not very indicative of champion strength, as irelia feels insanely unfun and broken to play against if the user knows what they are doing and her winrate is trash. I get that you guys mean well and are working on creating a more balanced environment in the last couple of patches, but some champions seem to completely evade nerfs when they obviously deserve some.

Don't know if they see these on reddit but I have no Twitter so - I really enjoyed the "Lover's Duo" thought it was so funny - get MediVedi on there next!

Do you sometimes mess with numbers internally just to see what kind of horrific abomination you can create? Because that is something I would do.

With that said (if you are allowed to say that is)

Have the potential changes just been scrapped overall or are they still in development? or it's just you really don't know about it period :o

I appreciate the initial response nevertheless and your time Yonggi.

This is probably the wrong place to ask, but is Lee Sin w ap ratio going from 80% to 55% a bug or undocumented change?

Phlox, I was wondering if you could confirm if anyone was keeping an eye on Aurelion Sol after those changes to Mandate? He already felt rough to play, having to invest in Rylais before he got any real damage, and the change to IM has me worried that we're just going to struggle even more

But the goal isn’t to make Q max the optimal route right? It’s just to put it more inline with the her other abilities? Because I can get behind that, but I have a slight problem with the designer having a preferential skill order.

Why do you want to control what people are maxing? What’s the point of artificially making a certain skill order “correct”, she’s a support why would you want to max the damage ability, when you could max utility?

So is Riot's "ideal" optimal max order Q > E > W or Q > W > E?

I totally understand the hesitation to add more power into the kit, you've sold me on the nerfs to w and e (though the ap ratio buffs still scare me). Have you guys looked at giving more single target value and diminishing returns for multiple targets? My problem with the ability is how much of the power is based on hitting multiple targets, which isn't always super easy to utilize in plat+

When is the next deploy?

First, quick off topic question: is there a reason why your website and client do not display the actual stats of abilities for champs? Feel like I shouldn't have to go to other sites to see these stats. It should be on the actually League of Legends site or client. Looking at both, I do not see the actual stats of the abilities in client or website.

Second, the heal just feels absolutely abysmal if you want to do a q max, especially early. As someone who wants to main her, those numbers just do not feel appealing enough to say "I want to max q over w" unless you decide not to build her as a tank and build full ap to compensate the lack of healing. Unless you think the appeal for the q doesn't lie in the healing for a support champion with an ability that heals.

random question, do you guys think that with the recent LP/MMR fix thing, climbing will be easier?

especially with no promos, inflation could be a real problem.

Hey phlox, trying to get Pyke some attention, would be very keen to hear your thoughts on him. Take a look at this: https://twitter.com/SkyNinjaXD/status/1351035042185830406?s=09&

Do you by any chance happen to know what Veigar changes are in the works?

Originally posted by BADxW0LF1

Are there plans to buff q, then? Or, as you stated above, are you trying to skew/force people to max q?
