Important to note that these rankings are trying to project spring split standings at the end of 18 games. If they were based on who will eventually be the better team (like to win a playoff series) or who is strongest right now they would look different

No, as Chemtech gets more refined it turns from green to pink/purpleish. Renata uses really expensive/refined chemtech hence the more purple/pink colors for her

Ever since the W cd nerf, you put 3 points in Q first, then max W after, you can still waveclear because of demats.

Interesting, I've just been running the standard Q max. I know strats like this have been common in the past for other champions like Ryze, didn't expect TF to be running it too.

There is a Dublin office in Ireland, and I work in security. There are a few others teams here :)

Could I use Cleanse, QSS or Mikaels to get rid of Berserk as well?

I assume yes to QSS but Cleanse and Mikaels have a few things they don't get rid of.

You can use all of those as well.

Hey u/Reav3

I have a question (unrelated to the VGU poll): Could you reveal, if Renata Glasc was inspired by any specific culture(s) or region(s)?

No specific place or region. We wanted to do a mixed race character from Zaun/Piltover to show how those cities have people come from all around Runeterra and live at them. She's meant to be a mix of many different ethnicities and cultures growing up in the melting pot of Zaun/Piltover

This is such a weird nerf to me.

I just checked changes between 100 AP, 300 AP and 500 AP from lvl 9 on (so maxed Q): it's a difference of -15, -5 and +5 damage - how is this significant? Is it aimed at earlier laning waveclear, especially at lvl 6?

To be fair I took arbitrary AP values but as far as I can tell this changes basically nothing?

Not on balance team, here's my read:

-10% attack speed on E is significant. You rank this one last. You're losing half the passive value of E which gives you a lot of wave control in the early game from level 2 or 3 onwards. Since you max E last, this is also a significant reduction in attack speed throughout the entire game.

The base damage nerf is TBD, but it might affect TF's ability to Q the wave twice with little AP. You'd need 400 AP to break even at level 9. With 3x demat on the caster minions and two Qs, right now you just about oneshot the backline without a red card as long as you are on-curve with AP. This might change that, but I don't know. If it does, that's a pretty big nerf because it means you need to spend more time actually hitting minions and less time running around the map, which makes you more vulnerable. Keep in mind that a minus 6% damage nerf (-15 at 100) is still a strong nerf.

It's entirely possible that these changes don...

Why doesn't Rito focus on breaking champs out of pro-play prison seems like a pretty sad state to leave them in all the time + clearly its possible to do , look at Sylas and Pantheon for example.

I think this should be a focus for the balance team, every patch you should adjust a pro play prison champ to break them out. Start with Azir.

not on the balance team but my 2c is that there are always going to be mechanics that have a place in the game that are also just fundamentally going to be taken advantage of more in pro play, and trying to avoid that is going to limit potential design space a lot.

given my champion pool this is not a new feeling to me

Go check out r/ryzemains, folks over there are contemplating getting rid of professional sololaners so that Ryze can be buffed.

mfw my top 3 champions are in order Orianna, Ryze and TF lol

Comment

TF will still be playable but I'm going to lose so much CS having to re-learn my muscle memory with that missing 10% attack speed. T_T

Pros can you stop playing my favourite champions pls

EDIT: Also, I hope not, but that Q nerf might mean that TF struggles to clear the caster minions with two Qs with demats now

Or is Swain, whose movement speed got nerfed in a patch that claimed to make Swain better in Solo lanes and high elo, but actually did the exact opposite.

Yeah I think Swain at 325 was a miss.

I've been playing a bunch of Soraka lately and her 325 ms is pretty painful. Obviously she has conditional ms from her passive and q, but they're highly gated, and trying to chase down an ally at 50% hp while they run away from you is incredibly frustrating. Any thoughts on why she's so slow?

Probably the ambulance move speed.

IMO Riot could put more champions at 325. It’s also not a hard science.
