I've never seen anyone hit skillshots like her so consistently. Her Morgana had a ludicrous rate of hitting enemy laners with a Q passing through several minions and her Lux max ranged killed people with ults we'd swear were outside of the range. But alas, she graduated to HOTS. Typical fake gamer girl, going with simplicity over true challenge. They’d rather beat the poo poo out of small children and moan like nervous cows when they order a coffee drink from a guy with tattoos and a vegan dog. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Upon finding out just now that op.gg shamefully saves every season's history I'm both proud and ashamed to say that I have 900 matches with Zyra across all seasons for a tally of 67% win rate, two Vayne victories I cannot remember, an impressively lovely Janna w/r which is probably karma. Also apparently my best champion was old Sion with a 76% wr over 38 games and Cassiopeia with 74% over 31 games which are pretty pitiful samples but I tunnel visioned the plant lady so hard I don't really have anything else to show for other than maining Syndra in S4 which I barely recall.

Hmm, so the tank changes on the PBE. This gonna make nautilus a good jungler again? More shields = safer clear = more ganks?

Less shield value (scaling) + less shield duration + no boost to shield damage = arguably worse clear, less ganks, just as much an obscure jungler. The reduced CD might improve his laning potential, however - though I wouldn't be on it.

The best possible news for Ezreal changes. I was expecting far worse, and that they would gently caress up his Q and E.

ezreal q would stop breaking ezreal randomly if they just made it into a skill shot and not an on hit ability, but thats too easy so it has to keep accidentally breaking him with itemization changes

I could see them making W more like Xeraths old mage chains, you put it on someone, it has an activation time and then when you hit them with another skillshot it doubles the damage or something.

Some sort of damage amp debuff on follow up skillshot seems to be where it's going based on the teaser.

Those Nautilus W changes look terrible. They know he has worst-in-class clear already, right? And that his shield duration is innately tied to the damage he can put out for a clear?

After the sweeping jungle changes a few years back yeah, Nauitlus is a better support or support/tank than he ever was a jungler. He had the same Amumu problem even when he was a jungler where he had a slow-rear end clear time to make up for the amount of utility he offered so he would just be invaded and bullied on constantly. He's just such an uncommon pick now in either lane I don't even know why they're adjusting him. He wasn't played competitively and nobody played him overwhelming at any elo so it's just one of those random  changes imo

Malphite still has a 2.2 AP ratio on his post-6 combo and you can still easily oneshot people who have no proper MR items if you build AP.

Played some one for all last night, won like 5 in a row, was fun. Best matchup of the night was our xin zhao vs their heimerdinger. They rushed mid with 5x3 turrets and there was nothing to do but let them push. We took the top and bottom lanes and tried to hold them at the inhib but they took it out about 3 minutes in. Earliest inhib I've ever lost - super minions suck when they have 3x your hp and hit for huge chunks. We held them at the nexus for a while, then slowly pushed back out getting occasional picks. They totally should have won but we somehow were able to keep facing 1-2 at a time and won. Longest match was our singed into rakan, 39 minutes later we bashed our way in and won...absolute madness. When 5 rakans ult you it doesn't matter how much hp/mr you have, they were able to clear our whole team in the duration of the ults easily.

The reddit consensus was that despite it being a kotaku piece it was fairly well sourced (25+ plus employees I believe) and doesn't require more than a few grains of salt when reading it.

It's also probably the least surprising thing in the world that a major games dev has a sexist culture.

It only serves to confirm that the article's probably close to (if not right on) the money. Riot's normally a lot more straightforwards and casual with all of their other announcements; the fact that they've got this carefully worded employee's handbook response as their sole response says volumes.
