Auberaun

He's been out for 2 days. Every new champion goes through a period of learning where their average winrate increases over the course of ~ week. There are a few exceptions to this like Neeko, where it was harder to learn to play against her than play as her - her winrate on release remained pretty consistent and slightly declined over the week.

Right before we ship a patch we have to remove things on PBE that aren't actually going to be in the patch is my understanding. I think there's some technical reason.

10.6 remains the current plan

Indeed - I'd also recommend Deadman's Plate and Predator for the mothership Yuumi.

We never nerf champions because they can flex into too many lanes, we nerf them if their winrate is too high (taking pick rate into account) or their pro play presence is too high. One of the common traits that pros value in their picks is the ability to flex into multiple roles in draft, so if we're looking to nerf a champion because they violated the pro play threshold one of the tactics we might use is to remove or reduce some of their role flexibility.

Y'all don't know how long I've been waiting for the support Sett.

The other way to look at it is that Sona top is just overpowered. She has a 55-57% winrate depending on MMR with a decent enough pickrate. We would nerf any champ with these metrics, she violates the guidelines found here. She can lose 5% winrate and still be a reasonable pick toplane, like I suspect she will be after this changes. Will her pickrate remain as high if she's not as overpowered? Probably not.

we already did

Yeah he dropped by ~4%, which is a pretty large nerf for any champion.

I keep asking mr. rito to nerf Rengar but they won't listen to me either :(

We're nerfing him next patch

This is correct.

I'd agree if Dardoch didn't also seem to be in imminent danger. But this is all hindsight, who knows what he was considering ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah mostly agree with this. He definitely had time to ult, but he would've been putting the ult on himself at 60%, which would be a bit early. If I were him I'd also be watching Dardoch (my almost dead jungler while we're trying to contest Infernal), making it understandable that he gets caught off guard. Misplay yes, but there's no clearly correct decision here IMO

Edit: Yeah if everything goes the same without the Rakan ult he'd have ample time to save himself, good play by CoreJJ

Nerfing funneling would be ideal. The specific Taric/Yi change I'd recommend if we were going to adjust them would be changing the interaction that makes Taric's E undodgeable if it fires while Yi is Qing a target.

Doesn't have a single dodge everything and teleport 4 times

This was unironically a Senna iteration!

:⁾

Sure, here ya go.

I go W > E > Q and always Knight's Vow first. After that it's probably Stoneplate or Locket, Triforce/Cleaver if you're rich.

If his winrate doesn't drop he'll be in the range of "too strong". There's still a bit of fuzziness from pre & post hotfix data being mixed, but we should clearly know by Monday.

Don't know the details, but the logic for target acquisition was refactored and the outcome was an extra 50-75 range on the E.
