[@brocolive1950]

13:17 he's making such a good point. Since mid and side waves got synced up, getting lane prio is often worthless, you can't roam anymore, you can't take plates under your ennemies' nose either, you can't steal camps because it takes ages and 50% HP, you can't do anything to really push your lead. Same for death timers getting shorter, killing your opponent can be at your own detriment if he TP back and you can't push the wave instantly

[@deikhar]

So true man as a qiyana player even if i get a solokill enemy comes before i push or if they have tp i cant just make them go base and roam i have to stay or he will tp and push maybe even gets plate. Even if i roam well its not worth because you are getting exp gap

what he actually said was different tho, he said that there is no problem with some midlane champs being buffed, SINCE there are waaaay many champs that are overbuffed in other roles too, like Aatrox, Ksante, Rakan, Xayah and Kaisa. the example is that there's no issue in champions being solid and strong, the problem starts when there's only 2 champs at MAX per role that are waaaay overbuffed above all others, and that results in a boring meta, where you know that if you don't pick one of these, you're fucked because there are no answers to it.

Think most of the other changes are debatable, but the death timers are horrible. Midlane prolly suffers the most from this, but in toplane it's a horror as well.

[@petrri323]

I was playing a game yesterday where I killed enemy jg topside with a counter-gank about 20s before drag spawned. Old patch, we have drag advantage because I just back and have tempo and gold on them. New patch, WE LOSE DRAG BECAUSE THE ENEMY JG DIED TOPSIDE. They had to wait like 5s to respawn and walk straight there. While I had to get to safety and then back, both things together taking a total of 10-15s depending. So because I killed the enemy jungler, they had a 5-10s lead on me. Add in their laners actually rotating to an obj, and I unironically lost a dragon because I killed the enemy jg topside. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE RIOT!

[@JustShotsForMeh]

You have no idea, the death timer shit is just as impactful for junglers, Briar takes red side and level 3 ganks bot, I'm pathing top and the moment I see her I roll into her blue, the issue is that it's Briar, and Briar loves inting, so what happens is she gets smoked by my Caitlyn for free, gets 350 gold from 3 camps meaning long sword, gets an instant recall, gets full HP, and NOW runs to her blue whilst I'm holding my dick in my hand half HP doing exactly the same amount of camps she did. So from their jungler feeding my AD for free I have 3 options, take her blue and get double scuttled/invaded myself by the now stronger jungle, forsake her blue and take my side cowering from the now stronger jungler, and... Risk my life in the hopes of taking scuttle away from the now stronger jungler, also fucking up my rotation in the process, all of these end up in a net loss for me, but not my Caitlyn I guess, yay. It's an absolute mess.

[@wchye9734]

@@JustShotsForMehnah man that’s not true, you have enough time for her blue, gromp, and scuttle top side especially if your laner can rotate. If you can’t take blue and scuttle then you made a mistake in clearing or wasted time. (Or I mean you are a jungler like maokai then yea you just hard lose every scenario). Really depends on your champ though.

[@JustShotsForMeh]

@@wchye9734 Shit, you could make the argument you can take wolves blue and MAYBE squeeze out gromp just barely and get smoked, my point being this is not an advantage, you got 2 of her camps, yay! Now you recall/die to her on your side if you even manage to clear anything and not die to your camps, regardless you lose 2 camps of your own, chickens red and with top prio she might even take your golems easier than you would have taken gromp regardless of your prio, you fixed her rotation perfectly whilst messing up yours. You fix her rotation You fuck up your rotation You give away the stronger buff You waste time with the weaker buff You risk top checking/coming You risk mid checking/coming You're weaker You can't gank afterwards You can't counter gank afterwards The funny bit? In all of this foray you're better off executing on one of the tier 2's than recalling!!! All of this is in the context of their jungler running it down bot, being unable to punish that properly is fucking absurd, it makes the role so training-wheeled, at least I don't deal 20% less damage to her side now, copium.

[@wchye9734]

@@JustShotsForMeh well you get 3 counting scuttle, yea sure it’s not a complete advantage, but at worst you go equal. You are actually more net positive since she has to invade your red side, you seem to think she can just go there unpunished and win. Like in your thinking she already has your red side, which honestly is just not true. Her having a long sword advantage over you does not mean she can just invade you on that side without repercussions. Champions cannot just go and create pressure. You aren’t necessarily weaker either, it entirely depends on the champion you play, some champions are more gold efficient and can beat other despite missing an extra 10ad from longsword. Also what makes you think you can’t gank or counter gank, the champ doesn’t just become invincible after buying a long sword. You also don’t mess up your clear rotation, since you can always just go bot after recall and shake hands on an even trade (technically net positive since your cait got a kill) It’s hard as these are theoretical with no real context of game or lane states, instead it’s just assuming the context happens. Which by that logic you could apply to any scenario. If you got a vod or vid then that would be better to review. Overall I get your point that you are trying to make, it’s just not a very good one as it just gets countered by basic jungle fundamentals. If this was really the case why don’t we see more high elo junglers, especially ones that can red side 3 camp clear faster, doing this more often and executing to towers. (Also briar would go buy Doran’s blade not long sword, and to counter that you would just do the similar 3 camp into back buy) All this again depends on champ since if you are maokai yea you are going to have a much harder time

I was a mid main in season 1-5, back when you had to fight for it in chat like it was blind pick, I remember when lvl 3 ignite first blood fight decided the lane. I don't play mid anymore, but the few times I got autofilled, it is completely impossible. Riot is essentially trying to push mid back to older seasons when farming 200 before 20 mins is more important than kills and roaming. Logically it's counter intuitive because if you're going to get 300 gold from minions or 300 gold from roaming, you will choose roaming. First choice don't do anything except continue your supposed growth, while the 2nd choice ensures enemy gets into an disadvantage. The game has went from "Looking to have an advantage" to "Cause disadvantage for enemy", which in itself is bad because the comeback mechanics mean you lose more than you gain if you're ahead in experience and get killed.

The main source of this problem is the constant low elo delusion that "mages are weak" because they don't post huge kill numbers every game like assassin players often do. This "weakness" has never been represented in winrate, or in competitive play where they have been practically mandatory mid picks for the past god knows how many seasons of pro. It's the content creation scenes fault as well, because they promote the 1v9 hard carry playstyle as the only way to escape low elo, when it reality it's the reason low elo is such a cluster fuck of main characters with no understanding of the fundamentals of the game.

ADC has a similar problem to where they are gods if played around and properly peeled for but a litteral canon minion if not turbo fedd and your teamates dont care about you in teamfights. Mages are very strong but are very boring to play both due to the mobility creep in the game and the lack of diversity in items. At the end of the day the casuals make up about 95% of the playerbase and League is a GAME which are supposed to be fun for the absolute majority of the players. It isnt right or fair to balance around proplay and master+ players only and for the past few seasons fun and fair in soloQ has been way too sidelined for the benefit of esports.

Laners can still push their leads. I don't understand why so many whiny content creators see a nerf to snowballing (which has been ultra toxic so far) and they act like you can't get a lead anymore. Killing the enemy laner on offense nets you 300 gold, 125 for a plate and they lose at least one wave, worth around 120 gold on average in the early game. We're looking at a 550 gold lead (plus the exp the enemy is losing) on one kill. But no, if the first kill doesn't straight up win you the game and allow you to 1v9, the game is bad apparently.

​@@Tavusit The talon had 44 minutes to buy Plated Steelcaps, Guardian Angel or any other armor item and he would've survived that auto and had enough damage to overkill the Caitlyn even through Ivern shield. Instead, the only durability Talon bought was 625 bonus hp from elixir of iron and shroud. He lost most of that before engaging on Caitlyn meaning he had as close to 0 durability as he could possibly have, versus a Caitlyn with as close to as much damage as she could possibly have. (Baron, Elder, Red Elixir, 6 full AD items with no attack speed, Headshot passive, Energized, Ardent Censer, Lethality after dashing with E, etc.) Talon was useless because he itemized poorly. Otherwise he would've deleted this Caitlyn. That's not to mention the other 44 minutes of the match he could've played better to avoid reaching this very specific scenario.

ADCs are doing too much burst damage, while having literal tank stats. Add an enchanter into the mix, and they're practically unkillable outside of pro play. Don't believe me? Go into practice tool and level any marksman to lvl 18 and any tank to lvl 18. Notice their hp, base armor, and base mr are basically the same. ADC mains cried so hard for so long, that now every marksman is a tank while doing 20-30% more damage than they did in season 8. At the same time, assassins were nerfed aggressively in every single season after season 8. They have less one-shot potential, less CDR, way less base stats (squishy). So marksmen were relentlessly buffed, and their class-counter was relentlessly nerfed. What a shock Cait 1-shots Talon in a single auto. Who could have seen this coming?

adcs are the most babied roll in the entire game. They cry over every inconvenience while simultaneously being the biggest factor in if your team wins or not in teamfights.

As an Orianna otp I agree on most things, when riot started buffing Ori I felt like the buffs were unnecessary (especially dmg buffs, Ori does not lack damage at all). Now she indirectly got buffed through lost chapter gold change, tp changes, dorans ring changes (and she can also go summon aery but I still prefer phase rush on her tbh). Imo Syndra is still stronger but ofc people are gonna be more biased towards the champ they play more (I play more Orianna and Nemesis more Syndra), so I don't think there is a point in debating who of those champs is stronger when they are both in a very similar state. I'm glad Viktor is out of meta, it was horrible playing against this champ. 1 thing I'd like to add is that assassins were dominating the meta for a very long time and now they got the nerf they needed, it doesn't justify Ori and Syndra being this strong but assassin players shouldn't cry about it since they had like 5 seasons for themselves while mages got left behind.

I feel like some high ranged Lane bullies have crazy high numbers currently. A champion should only have one of these three things: High Range, Insane Scaling, Good Lane. For example Aurelion Sol (bad laning) or Xerath (not the best scaling) are balanced around that but Syndra/Orianna are just too strong in these regards. In my opinion there should not be a single Matchup in League where one player is stronger than the other player over the course of the whole game. Syndra and Orianna have High range, a good lane and very good scaling. That means that in some Matchups it is literally impossible for the enemy to win at any point of the game if the Syndra/Orianna doesn't mess up. It's not possible to try and pull some crazy plays on them because the only way to kill a Syndra/Orianna in lane is if they mess up. That means the other mid laner has no more priority over how the lane goes assuming they are able to punish mistakes but the Orianna/Syndra doesn't do mistakes.

Ive been saying this for the longest time. Mid is the most resident sleeper role in the game. U can play anything mid and survive and just scale. When u see Nasus having a higher winrate mid than top when mid in fact has more ranged champs than top, it should indicate something is very wrong somewhere. A lot of the midlane players in high elo are horribly elo inflated. Just this year for example, I peaked 800LP playing my mid only smurf which is double my top main account. Mid isnt even my 2nd best role.

[@amethonys2798]

? Nasus mid has a better win rate because he has infinitely better match ups mid. 3 points in E with comet+scorch+manaflow means you probably outpoke the mage that has ZERO sustain and even if are slightly behind early, you can run down any mage with ghost+ulti after sheen. Also, mages can't really poke him out after a point (passive sustain) and also can't burst him if he his ulti. Like post 6 Syndra has to literally sit on her E all game because if she ever used it aggressively and misses she loses her flash since Nasus can and will just wither her and run her down since she's probably already hovering half health due to the constant E poke.

That and everything in the game basically equated to gold/xp only with exception of Baron. Which made Baron such a HUGE teamfight in the later stages of the game. Steal camps = gold and xp. Dragon = gold for team and xp. Kills = gold and xp. The most important thing happening in any game, was happening in THE LANES, WITH THE PLAYERS.

But the adc carries the most responsibility on their back imo, that's why they are the strongest. Sure they can get easily killed if their team sucks and it makes it hard to play, but you should lose a team game if your team sucks. Idk why that's a problem, if your adc is gapped by the enemy adc then fights are just as much a nightmare for other roles as well.

​@tommytommy7535 yeah and hullbreaker fiora is reliant on her team not running it down while she splits. Congrats the team game relies on teammates.

As an ADC main, an assassin should one shot with full combo unless he is super far behind. The issue before durability patch was that assassins oneshot with one ability when down or even in gold. But now the champs are just straight up garbage tier, it is insane ngl.

[@ragegaze3482]

As an assassin main I agree, I play zed mostly and will concede that going WEQ auto and only hitting 1 of each ability killing the adc is a little much. But when a fed adc kills me in 2 autos, it's a little bit ridiculous. Or the fact that I have to build full bruiser to not become useless late game is annoying.

[@sinaa9315]

as an assassin main who played from s3 i dont think they should one shot and they couldn't before but now if they dont they die in 0.0001s and are full useless. before assassin dident oneshit but it was fine because no one oneshooted them ether

@@sinaa9315 wdym b4 durability patch a kha’zix or kayn that was even in xp and gold would 100 to 0 me in one ability. They should execute someone with a full combo unless they are super fed, agree that assassins are bad rn but to say that they couldnt oneshot b4 is simply not true.

​@@sinaa9315You're thinking way too far back, S3 and earlier were the good times where everything being tanky was fine.

incredibly reasonable take!

[@Cookie-_]

Hot take respawn timers should be 8 seconds as a base but scale more slowly. You should get punished HARD for dying, I always find it really weird when I get a kill level 1-3 back then get back to lane after my enemy laner and now they're a level up

Remove the respawn homeguards too that shit is mad stupid. Sick and tired of sions inting and getting rewarded woth prio off it after clearing the wave.

[@florinalinmarginean1135]

That makes sense, but it also promotes snowballing. And Riot decided they want less snowballing in the game. They said they could predict the outcome of a large percentage of games just by looking at early leads (like, one team being 3 kills up at 10 minutes). These changes make perfect sense and they will probably make games less frustrating for the losing team, since they get an actual chance at fighting back. Especially at low elo where smurfs are not punished by the indie company
