Riot August said below that relic shield supports last hitting cannons counts as Senna killing them if the gold is shared with her.
This is correct.
Misplay yes, but there's no clearly correct decision here IMO
I disagree. they had vision of rakan well in advance. Bjerg was the player furthest up. You either ult and he doesn't rakan ult you. (In that case you still get to play the rest of the fight, just without R) or you buy your team time. Either way, using ult in a situation where you KNOW they can burst you is the better play.
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)_/¯
He took 40% dmg in 2.3 seconds and then he took 60% while charmed/knocked up.
This was NOT a huge missplay from bjergsen , it was a well played from Rakan , Bjergsen got cced from 60% where he was charmed and then knocked up>dead
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!
imagine the rioters, who designed elder to make it a game ending objective, preventing 45+ min games, watching this game
:)
could you post your op.gg? Sett support is something I thought about trying out recently, would be interested to see some runes/items/setups etc
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.
going by the data you guys can see now how is Sett is he considered in the range of slightly too strong?
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.
What exactly was fixed? Targets being aquired too early? E unintentially using edge rather then center range?
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.
The combo Riot-Sett flair eh? I'm into it.
Also, random question - what do you max after W? I can never decide between E/Q because both seem pretty good.
I play support tank Sett almost exclusively, so I max E to have more CC uptime for my team. In top lane Q is probably better second.
bugged e range
This ^ , already fixed
Hey, appreciate the response. I remember seeing that article posted here back when it was first published, although incorrectly remembered the four buckets as being three.
Just a few short questions about that if you had a bit more time: What would you (or more broadly speaking, the balance team) consider to be mid elo? It was a term used in the recent 10.1 patchnotes to explain Kassadin's nerf. Would that be synonymous with the skilled play bucket, or be somewhere in the average play bucket?
Unsure unfortunately. Usually we still reference those buckets internally so I'm not sure why we went with mid elo here (but I'm neither on the balance team nor a comms person so I might be missing context). If I had to guess "mid tier" would be approximately gold, which rides the line between average/skilled, which may be why we went with mid tier in this situation.
that mention completely shook my understanding of how riot operates. i didn't realize they were actually balancing for mid elo games at all which would explain a lot of confusing buffs/nerfs i've seen
Would encourage you to check out this link. The criteria within the 4 buckets are being iterated on and I don't think we've released any further updates, but the 4 buckets are still correct in that those are the bands of play considered.
That punch on vayne... what the f**k
That was Sett W + GP Q, they probably did about the same amount of damage
I'm the biggest Sett support fan in the world but GP did all the work there :P
My first thought is that you'd send your botlane top at the start of the game.
We'd probably need an extremely compelling reason to do anything that makes a player quitting the game have a positive impact on their team's chances to win.
Read moreThe balance team is accountable to the company (they are Riot employees), and are forced from above to introduce changes that put certain champions in the limelight, or are ordered to not touch incredibly frustrating, problematic, long-standing broken, and recently released ludicrously overpowered champions because that would affect Riot's bottom line.
If a single person with some decision making leverage employed at their balance team had a backbone and acted on it, they would lose their job very quickly. Balance changes for the better go against profit motives, at least with the way the game is set up. Champions that aren't played sell no skins - why would they dare touch the mid lane cash cows a la Zed, Yasuo, Qiyana and more. I can't think of a recent champion release (ignoring long-standing garbage like Zed) where I had the thought
Yep, I had a reasonable experience playing against this character.This isn't even some insane redpill conspiracy theo...
On the other hand, the playtest team is some set of random nameless (!) players not affiliated with the company under NDA that have no teeth over what balance changes are implemented into the game.
We're full Rioters. We don't control what's implemented into the game but we always have a seat at the table.
One patch is likely not enough time to know that something can't be solved in another way besides a revert.
