i literally dont even know how to respond to a comment as ridiculous as "dashes trivialize slows"

edit: except for back when lucian dash literally removed them

trivializes is maybe the wrong word here but I think if you try to meet him halfway you can admit there's a difference between flash and a 10s cooldown.

That said there are few better feelings than playing a voli/zil duo and just running down those champions, teamwork is always an answer and why those abilities are balanced* at a high level of play.

*by balanced I mean the majority of viable champions in a given meta have them and have answers to them

I think the big point is that slows tend to be balanced around normal mobility champs, so when you have champs that can get an advantage off the terrain it becomes hard to chase them with just normal slows.

Reduce dash speed maybe, but reducing the distance would break the game in half. Characters like Vi would become completely unplayable

He looks like somebody got really into drawing their good guy robot statue man, then remembered its supposed to be a gargoyle and added wings and weird legs.

Having a unique niche of taunting the enemy team was too strong, so we made him Better Shen

I think its mainly the head. Give him claws and a geometric version of Galio's old head and he'd look pretty cool.

Aatrox with Wind Powers is go!

Also his wings look too tiny, if they scaled them up like 15% they'd look better. I guess he's okay other than that, though.

He still has an AoE taunt, it's just not attached to his ult anymore

Galio still has an AOE taunt, but it's not his ult anymore. That's kind of disappointing, since the taunt range would have to be fairly small or have some sort of BS minigame attached to be balanced for a normal ability.
