Well idk man you have to get into some deep discussions about numbers and mechanics to explain why said abilities are broken lmao otherwise its just plain useless complaining.
I read it, I think there are some good points here for sure, and well worth checking out for people who don't play Akali but want to better understand her.
I am interested to see how she looks after the nerfs (data is still early here). But my gut says it's promising.
Congrats!
Font of Life isn't give him Singed much survivability when it goes to split pushing regardless of map size. It could even be argued that on a smaller map it's even more likely that an ally procs it and heals Singed.
Liandrys will hurt Singed, but he, like all core Liandrys users, have been over preforming for a while. I wouldn't say he is in a rough spot, just harder to play given his unique playstyle. If you understand that style you tend to do really well with him.
good points haha, let's see how it affects her. didn't even consider bans. ban rate will take some time to catch up to changes in strength, people's perceptions on power change slower than the power itself
may I ask what the rationale was behind Soraka nerfs? I personally felt like she wasn't a problem especially with grievous wounds and proper focus - Nami is almost universally regarded as the strongest enchanter in high elo.
Oh ya I was going to respond to that other post =P.
Basically I over did it with the Soraka buffs, she jumped up in power, but she won't be gutted by these nerf, and I expect she'll land in a fine spot. Nami is a touch strong too, and I wouldn't be surprised to see her popping up in the patch notes (not hinting at anything, just a my personal take).
Noooo don’t nerf the rolling ball of fun. My 2 cents on why his wr is higher. He is such a situational champ(versus ad champs) and thats why people tend to pick him to punish enemy comps when they go for 4 ad or full ad teams. If the enemy picks out a more balanced team, sure the effects of rammus won’t be as severe.
To be clear there are no nerfs to Rammus in this patch. I simply am pointing out that he is likely the most undervalued champion in Wild Rift.
He is going to be strong into full AD teams for sure, but he is far from bad in more balanced team comps.
Read morehaha I know, I understand that dance as a former kat one trick on PC.
I’m going to branch into anecdote. But the kat OTPS/mains I ran into many times in West Coast challenger were like Mali Uwu, Kyle, Hoon, Vex, Asamii, 4 character Taiwanese dude, and Bestplayer1. Hoon and Asamii have dropped her entirely, bestplayer1 is d1 now and rarely plays (i think swapped to Akali), TW1 is playing mostly other champs now (albeit possibly for tourney reasons), Kyle plays Kat occasionally still but hasnt reached challenger and doesn’t do well into me anymore when he is on Kat. Vex is like the last true Kat OTP and hes still working his way through GM. Idk, for me it feels like hitting an already dying breed lol..
going back off narratives, I just checked. there isn’t a single kat main in challenger anymore. there was once nearly thirty.
Id also caution when using diamond or masters, perhaps even GM as a sign of high elo. Theres a far bigger percentage of players in maste...
Its very possible those players have jumped off of Kat due to her high ban rate. Its also a very small sample size from a single region of players that you notice. Its not to say its nothing, the highest levels of play will always have a small playerbase but that it is still a small data set.
When I say high elo I'm not referring to a players in any particular tier, but rather their elo and percentage of the playerbase.
Lets say these changes reduce Kat's ban rate, they then get to play this champion some more, she'll be a bit weaker and IDEALLY they get to keep playing a champion they love.
Something else I'd like for them to give a little more thought/transparency to is what a balance change means for low elo vs high elo. The Yi buff may have been trying to give him a bit more use in high elo but turned him into a nightmare for low elo. And to be totally honest that was utterly unsurprising.
In terms of communication, what would help is if at some point between the last patch and this one, someone told us "yes, we see Yi has become a problem, we are working on it for the next patch". Simple acknowledgement that you hear what's wrong, have confirmed it on your end, and telling us there's a fix on the way even if you don't have specifics of that fix, it will do a lot to curb anger.
Don't wait until the patch notes to give us good news.
We actually talk specifically about this over here, but agree that we should provide some of this context in the patch notes themselves.
