Definitely Volibear. They need to just rethink his entire kit and start over. The others all deserve to be there (except maaaybe nocturne who seems mostly okay to me) but at least the others have some charm/theme that's worth keeping. Been playing a lot of Yuumi on PBE the last few days. She's... interesting. Lane phase is on the weak side without any hard CC for gank protection, but post lane phase she gets completely out of control. Major force multiplier like most enchanters, if you're ahead she'll make sure you stay ahead, etc. But can feel useless/become a free double kill if you get behind. I feel like I'm going to be either playing Yuumi when she comes out or playing Neeko into Yuumi and just getting freelo off people who aren't playing her properly. She's a very bad champion if you don't juggle your attach/unattached modes well and you can easily make your ADC feel like they're in a 2v1 if you just sit on them.

I hope Nocturne goes up first. As they alluded, he already hits his mark on theme but he really struggles to deliver on gameplay (although magic-missile nocturne has always been fun).

I feel like that list is pretty solid, and I'd vote for Diana, Elise, Nidalle, or most of the AP assassins first, but I want to see what they can do to make dragon form more like the magic damage version on Mega Gnar

Be nice if Shyvannas dragon form didn’t look like a dieing lizard too.

I had a nice game (at silver 4 level lol): First penta in a while. Didn't even notice I grabbed the wrong keystone until afterwards. Tried to swap from PTA to conqueror last second, and guess I mis-clicked.

I voted Shyv because although I've never played her, every game I play against her seems like she's the most miserable and useless character to play out of the 5.

Firebert posted:It's fiddle - lovely model, lovely lore, 3 point and click abilities that don't really fit together and random silence just begging to be removed I voted this way too. Mundo's funny and you'll never make me care about Volibear. Fiddle looks spooky and cool in the Twist of Fate cinematic and then you get in game and he's this doddering clunky piece of poo poo with one of the worst autoattacks in the game who can barely move outside of his ultimate.

I'm probably voting Voli, just to make them do the biggest possible rework of the five so that we get an entirely new champion. But a new Fiddle with the same ult could be fun too hmmMMMMMM...

# ? May 10, 2019 08:48 |

I gotta vote Mundo, most in need of a visual upgrade by far while Voli and Noct are most in need of making them less of a snooze-fest. Shy is fine except visuals, just needs a base skin that isn't bikini armor and thong armor with exposed midriffs. Fiddle is fine the way he is, visually he looks fine because he is just a lovely scarecrow, gameplay wise he works just fine in support and alright in jungle and has fairly unique gameplay with how squishy he is, you just know if they rework him his fear is going to be a skillshot and you'll have to manually glide each crow into people and he'll probably lose that satisfaction of having his E bounce between 2 people. The only correct answer in the end is to vote Mundo, because a full rework will include 10+ minutes of voice lines for Mundo.

Thing is though, Mundo is gonna stay basically the same kit, the hypertank with cleavers and no real CC. And once you get past how cool the new VO and animations are, you still got the same champ.

It will 1 minute of voice acting if you remove all the times he says "Mundo".

Remove Q silence, make W a skillshot that terrifies while it drains, make E something fun For Fiddlesticks that is
|
# ? May 10, 2019 10:13 |
It should probably be Volibear so they can rename him and make him interesting since the only reason he was smashed through development was to get a self insert into the game.

Svensken posted:Remove Q silence, make W a skillshot that terrifies while it drains, make E something fun His Q is the targeted fear. Honestly I think fiddle's kit is alright. He has a lot of damage and cc but is extremely squishy and has a limited range, which makes him rely on good setup and vision control to win fights. The silence is obnoxious so I would change his E to do something different but I think his design is one of the more cohesive and realized of the old champions. I would rather he gets a QoL change for the most part mechanically.

Yeah fiddle I'd probably just take the silence off his e and be done with it. And add more crows to his ults visual

How Rude posted:His Q is the targeted fear. the silence is a sweetener on an ability which is more than strong enough without it. maybe make it increase the amount of damage your drain does or something, with stack so if you multi bounce you can shred someone

Just make Fid's first crow target silenced and the rest are damage only, make his fear a skill shot with a small AoE like Cass' ult, and freshen up his animations. Simple as hell I don't know why everyone is bitching about the concept of silences, Malz and Raka have silences that fit in the game fine because they're not bouncing death spells that can silence you when the champ isn't even in vision range

# ? May 10, 2019 17:37 |

I'd rather lose the silence than the targeted fear. It's nice having a few champs where their CC's aren't skillshots for people who aren't great at them.

Simple as hell silence is not a very good mechanic in general and as a cc it can either be the most annoying mechanic or completely irrelevant so i think the less people who have it the better

How is silence that much worse than nearsighted, blind, fear, charm, suppressed, frozen, or stunned? His silence is just so bad because it's a long range, multitarget, bouncing, targetable ability on a short CD
|
# ? May 10, 2019 18:11 |
Silence is hard because you just lose control of your buttons and it’s not as noticeable like being rooted in place. It kinda serves the same purpose but it can’t really be dodged like most other forms of CC which Riot has been pretty good about throwing CC on skill shots or ultimates.

Is there a good recommended learning resource for people who have never really played League before? I have played about 640 hours of Dota 2, but never really League, so I'm familiar with a lot of the basic concepts, but not the stuff specific to League.

His silence is just so bad because it's a long range, multitarget, bouncing, targetable ability on a short CD i mean, silence is just annoying, it is not overpowered. the problem with silence is it just sucks, it is not fun to play with or around and it has variable use. silence a zed? great! silence caitlyn? .... good job i guess? the status sucks because it is not really noticeable until you try to press a button and do nothing, and it has terrible conveyance. notably, soraka and malzahars silence are tied to extremely flashy obvious abilities whereas dark wind just hits you and then your buttons stop working for a bit. really though, i think silence is just a bad status effect to exist in league unless it is really obvious and has a specific reason to exist(malz uses it to counter mages, soraka uses it for area denial and protection)

i think as his kit currently functions crow silence is important to allowing fiddles to survive crowstorm long enough to effectively position instead of having to hourglass immediately in a mediocre spot, but it could be implemented in a different way

strong bird posted:its not nice that this the case actually Targeted CC is fine if it has some really important caveats. Namely the fear is attached to a very squishy, immobile mage that can only blink with his long CD ult. The targeted CC also has a very tiny range compared to most skillshots. His fear is fine and can be played around, not unlike Malzahar ult, Poppy E, etc.

kingcobweb posted:Nah dude that poo poo's bullshit. The ways you can "play around" a targeted 2-second fear just aren't that interesting. Fiddles was an infuriating support to play against before they hit his numbers, since his Q is a straight-up "gently caress your gank" button. In ye olden days (before they forced skillshots into the kits of perfectly usable champions like Taric, Kayle, Soraka, Ryze, loving Xin, and an uncountable amount of new releases), skillshots were much less common, and the game was Fine. One of the effects of skillshot bloat is shifting gameplay from interesting tactical positioning decisions to twitch reactions and silly mind-games. You "play around" targeted abilities and auto-attacks, regardless of whether they include CC or not, by positioning right and not entering their range when the pro/con calculation isn't in your favor. Fiddle's Q isn't a "gently caress your gank" button if the laners involved bait it out at the right moment. I guess you can can also argue that auto-attacks should also be turned into skill-shots because "playing around them is more interesting".

Why do we even have crit chance for ranged champs? +500 damage with a <1 second CD with no counter other than "don't get clicked on" is so bullshit Seriously though, silence is a fine mechanic that mirrors blindness in both its strengths and weaknesses. It's not great, it's not terrible, it's fine. The problem with Fid's silence is just that bounces so much and so far. He shouldn't be able to target a minion and silence the entire team from out of anyone's attack range on such a short cooldown
