personally i love the old nasus voice and think it is incredibly win but i can understand why someone would dislike it. with that said however the new voice is unintentionally funny because i do not give a crap about what happened to shurima

Hitting something with Old Nasus Q was a billion times more satisfying than hitting something with new Nasus Q

An expert pairing of gameplay, design, and voicework. The new one loses the main thing that made his old one good, his unaffected calm, but it also falls prey to the current standard pitfall where they give a champ 4x the lines but they all just say backstory stuff that has no bearing on anything and don't engage you.

It was honestly a way more simpler time, people originally complained champions didn't say enough and now every loving character has 45 minutes of dialogueWork Friend Keven posted:The new one loses the main thing that made his old one good, his unaffected calm, but it also falls prey to the current standard pitfall where they give a champ 4x the lines but they all just say backstory stuff that has no bearing on anything and don't engage you. I think the new guy does a decent job at emulating the old dude. I'd bet they'd probably have taken in the original voice actor for new lines if he hadn't passed away too. I think just some of the lines the older VA had are delivered in a really weird way where the new improved on it, but it's nowhere near as bad as the really old Katarina/Anivia/Janna were Like listen to old Heimerdinger and new Heimer, same dude, but some of the lines are really weirdly said on the update Servaetes fucked around with this message at 02:56 on May 12, 2017 |

Servaetes posted:It was honestly a way more simpler time, people originally complained champions didn't say enough and now every loving character has 45 minutes of dialogue The new one is not terrible and its forgivable since the original VO died (in particular I like "wither") & the old one had a few rough spots because nasus had some really long weird lines. But the new one is still angry man with angry man filter which is generic and less interesting than old Nasus' calm and measured intonations about how you're already dead.

The last support they reworked was Soraka and even a dozen huge post-rework changes afterward she's still loving miserable to play against and insanely boring to play. I'm hesitantly optimistic about when they eventually do a class update

misguided rage posted:She's only boring because they ruthlessly nerfed all possibility of Q max. You used to be able to bully AP supports out of lane with it. It probably got a little more interactive with the change to Ancient Coin, but it was absurdly dumb how people could play the champ like they were botting to level up their account and still play her at like, 90% effectiveness. Back when she was good, I remember a lot of plat games where there would be a low-gold soraka duo'd with a high-plat jungler or midlaner and there was practically no way to punish them for not actually doing anything in the lane other than healing when their ADC was below max HP.

The halcyon days of Season 1 when Soraka's E was a silence that gave her ADC mana for free and her W actually healed for a meaningful amount and gave a ridiculous armour buff to its target and just used mana like any other spell, prior to Riot deciding that healing and sustain had to be nerfed into the ground and every champion needs its own unique gimmick?

Dude she was ten times as oppressive post-rework, she was pick or ban and about as braindead to pilot as original URF Sona

True fact: Soraka was the first champion I ever bought a skin for with the RP someone gifted me. I then refunded that skin, because playing Soraka was not fun.

idea: convince millions of people to buy the msi karma skin, wait for the msi prize pool to be announced and payed out, then have everyone refund their skins!! ha ha ha, checkmate rito

Old soraka was fun in the same way people enjoyed playing mono blue control before magic became all about creatures. It never really felt that oppressive imo, it was just considered boring to play/play against so much like wotc got rid of mbc as a concept, riot moved past soraka.

Reported for calling it MBC which is very obviously mono-black control and any real magic player would know that it's mono-U control

I'm hesitantly optimistic about when they eventually do a class update Wait do you think she is /more/ oppressive/boring now than she was before, like as a kit rather than just being poorly tuned? Or are you just saying she's still Soraka and has the same annoying things going on? Cause as a season 2 Soraka main, I buy that she's still annoying but even as someone who liked old Soraka that was definitely worse to play against, and less interesting. Like, she definitely could still use work but imo they at least made her more fun to play, even if she can still w spam. Like, to be fair maybe Adrian scared always Soraka was more optimal than occasional bully Soraka but at least there was a bit more incentive to fight.
