Don’t take minion dematerializer on any champ ever. Instead learn how to last hit and manage your minion waves and mana.

The free 450 gold you get from magical boots is worth more than 6 minions that you can kill one every 10 seconds or whatever.

Yeah I don't see how minion dematerializer is any good at all

If it works on super creeps then it could have a use in some kind of hell siege scenario but the game is so snowbally and lethal right now that sieges are basically an impossibility.

It does not.

Unstoppable Force is now a linear skillshot with unlimited range but you only stop upon hitting a champion; if you fail to connect you will travel off the map, never to return for the rest of the game.

Any slow over 75%~ is effectively just a 75% slow because you can't go below 110 MS (unless the slow is over 100% at which point it just roots you, but I think only Janna can do this)

I feel like it's hard to find a character magical footwear isn't great on, just hands you 350g and instant item delivery and permanent +10 movement, it's automatically giving you a kills worth of gold and then some.

The numbers seem to back it up with it being the highest win % choice for nearly everyone who takes it.

Singed wants to buy boots before 10 minutes in like 70%+ of matchups.

I don't see those changes making nunu a terror because the power shift is on maxing his w which sucks rear end and will have him get loving annihilated by any decent junglers invades or counter ganks.

As opposed to now where you max Q, which does nothing in those situations either?

Nunu is abysmally bad as a support, especially for Ziggs (who isn't exactly great shakes as ADC himself currently). Ziggs either wants a support to protect him, or to help shove the wave under the enemy tower. Nunu does neither of those things. Bot lane currently favours sustain (with Fleet Footwork/Overheal on the ADC) or engage supports, both of which Nunu can't really answer.

You would have more luck running Ziggs mid/Nunu jungle.

# ¿ Jan 11, 2018 16:41

Nunu is simple to play and has good sustain for learning jungling, but by no means would I ever describe him as "really strong" in the current game.

There are plenty of games that receive few or no patches but still have a changing meta even years after they come out.

These changes nerf Middlesticks out of viability though? They totally remove his bonus damage to minions, which was the only thing that let you play him mid previously (via having insane push and thus roam potential).

I have no self awareness and only think about how assassins interact with me and not how they add a lot to the game, especially when you are going to lose to that mpg maw unless someone pops him

Complaining about assassins is imo the best way to identify a player that takes pride in their skill and yet refuses to improve or actually break out of bronze. Same with blitz. These are champs that will auto win unless you actively look to punish them. Just saying �hmmm well maybe if I just farm he�ll leave me alone� and then complaining about how unfun zed is when you inevitably allow him to safely scale, or make zero effort into understanding how to deny them their damage. Instead you need to learn how to look for opportunities to create advantages, before they press their commitment button. This is unfortunately 5% harder than aggressively avoiding champs and just �trying to farm� and why actually learn how to play those matchups when you can just throw your hands up in resignation after you did nothing to punish 3 blitz hooks that missed and you finally died on the 4th

Me, an intellectual:

Righteous glory isn't very efficient for defensive stats either, as you pay a lot for the active and for the mana (it's still very good, but more situational).

The main problem with Righteous Glory is its item slot efficiency (really bad, it's cheap and has a wide stat spread), rather than its gold efficiency. Taken as it is, RG is 100% gold efficient. Without the mana, it is still 84% gold efficient (compared to DMP's 80% at 0 stacks). All of the armour/health tank items fall around 75% - 85% gold efficiency in terms of raw defensive stats, and this includes RG.

no because with malzahar he was pretty good as an AP mid laner, the new rework is not particularly better, i guess it is kind of better, but malzahar could also be played as an AD mid laner using pets, an AD top laner , an AP or an AD jungler, and you could also kind of work the gimmicks of AP top malzahar and adc malzahar. but with new rework, all of those alternative ways to play him disappeared, and for what?

Before the latest round of nerfs you could still play AP Malzhar top, because he could prey on the melee tank/bruiser matchups that mostly populate top. Of course, the main thing that let him do this was his busted numbers, and they nerfed those, but that was also the main thing that made him one of the best midlaners in the game, so �\_(ツ)_/�

I agree that the loss of the AD builds in general was pretty disappointing and ultimately unnecessary.

Bruiser Fizz is back

I can't believe they pushed that W change through

I wouldn't be so sure. The new W is significantly weaker than the old Bruiser Fizz W which did missing % damage. In fact the 8.14 W requires him to get 4 autos of just to match the AP ratio of the 8.13 W detonation, and even then the base damage doesn't measure up.

Warchicken was like Diamond 3, I don't think he ever made challenger but I might be wrong. Obviously before he started :sadbrains: posting Methanar was pretty highly ranked for a long time, and did boosting.

I think you used to (or still can?) be able to get in an AA with Singed's Fling ability as they're being tossed.

You still can, but it's not an auto reset. It just so happens that the way the spell handles the target hitbox lets you get an attack in.

�Lisandra is disabled due to an issue with her passive� = somehow lissandra ghosts one shot towers and never die, then when we tried to fix it now lissandra can�t be reduced below 1hp, help us. The good ole days of game breaking yorick bugs are back baby.

Now what I want to know is how it interacts with sions passive.

You get the ghost after his passive ends, seemingly from the location where the passive ends (unlike Morde, who get's his ghost when the passive starts)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUGhL28mP18
