New champion roadmap. Looks like we're getting a burst mage that uses bubbles (?), an Irelia/Swain gameplay update, and a huge honkin' gameplay update for Aatrox. Sounds like they're having trouble really nailing him down conceptually. Genuinely feels like Raast is what he should have been.

Swain was a letter better after they changed him, but he still suffers from being a boring rear end bird man who just runs at you while Cawing wildly.

Irelia is just poo poo champion design and I'd honestly prefer if they just delete her from the game.

I think royal guard is pretty awesome actually

Also, I agree that irelia, especially when she's good, is super annoying to play against.

Tried alkali?

Alternatively, just play Mages in the Top Lane. Then your mid laner can play Yasuo or Zed all they want.

He's like illaoi where he's really good if you can force the other team to fight in a specific area, but if they can just Walk Away his power goes way down

Aatrox changes predictions:

W now additionally stacks .1 attack speed with every hit
Ult initial damage now the size of a nunu ult
Q AP scaling 0.4

Of course all these changes are pointless and is just shuffling the deck chairs on the titanic and whatnot lol

I imagine they are gutting everything from Aatrox's kit except for his q and some conditional lifesteal. Maybe the revive, but that's harder to balance.

For a while, when ZZ rot and Banner didn't share a stupid amount of overlap, rushing those two items in the top lane then trying as hard as you could to not interact with your lane opponent while constantly splitting was amusing. I'm not sure if "good" could have described it though.

Irelia reminds me - can we take a moment to talk about the worst feeling buttons in the game. Like, Irelia summons four "spirit blades" that look like rear end and they sort of lazily drift off one at a time without any flash. I think Sej's w has the same problem. The icon appears on the ground and people just take damage. :geno:

Not saying that everything needs particles everywhere - Taliyah's Q is just a series of projectiles, but between the sound effect and the rhythm (on unworked ground,) I fuckin love pushing that button.

he still has the same abilities as at release, they haven't really reworked him other than gating the revive which just made him even less fun.

He has wings but never uses them except to Q, they're going to give him some sort of longer range roaming ability like Aurelion Sol's E or Galio's ult

i wish they hadn't poo poo all over him in a half-assed attempt to make him good if they were just going to fully overhaul him

fiora is an extremely well made and fun character to play as and against. who the gently caress cares what she looks like

irelia is one dimensional but is still fun to play as and against as a lot of top laners. i don't give a poo poo about adc because adc is a poo poo role for the scum of the earth

poppy is dumb garbage with a fun ult. her q is an incomprehensibly stupid trash skill
