Why would I be talking about aesthetics? Rengars theme is cool, but his kit is completely obnoxious and disgusting. It's so stupid that it's essentially been reworked about 4 times now. As long as Riot keeps trying to retain his "Identity" with the reworks he will continue to be retarded and keep getting nerfed.

there a tons of terribly desgined champs who cant be balanced since they would be either too weak or too strong. e.g. yasuo,kassadin,rengar,kaz, lots of assassins

Well in medium-high elo at least... Either that or assasin's are kinda lossing their thing now.---.

There is a big difference when you compare kits like Yasuo and Kha'Zix to Kassadin and Rengar. You can balance Yasuo and Kha'Zix with their current kits. I think Kha'Zix is actually in a decent spot now in terms of healthy gameplay. Never really had a problem with that champion until they randomly decided to give him super tankyness in stealth for some reason (which was later removed).

Kits like Rengar and Kassadin will never be healthy for the game and they should be remade from scratch. Been saying this since the first mini rework Kassadin got back in 2010. As long as they try to keep their identity with the reworks those two champions will always be bad for the game or unplayable.
khan119
I didnt compare them, i listed them as terribly designed champs.
Vulf
Yasuo and K6 aren't terribly designed though. Is the point of my post.
Their problems are too many free stats in an already overloaded kit which is fixable without a rework unlike Kass and Rengar.
khan119
i striked k6 because of that but yasuo actually is teribly designed and unbalancable without him being completely useless or completely overpowered
Vulf
Care to explain why? I'm interested in why you think this.

I agree that he is annoying and frustrating to play against, but he is definitely a champion that can be tweaked some without making him useless.
Witch Mercy
Kha'zix is so fun omg.
I should just play eve and him from now!
OzzyOzrock
I wonder what it would do to Yasuo to nerf his crit-building identity. Would annihilate some DPS but where would they compensate if that were to happen?
khan119
tell me some of these tweaks that can be applied to yasuo without drastically changing his place in the game
Vulf
If I was going to do some tweaks to Yasuo the first thing I would start with would be his ulti.

Lets take a look at this ability



See how ridiculously overloaded that ability is? Does he really need all of that? No

Does this ability need 1200 range to be used effectively? No
Would nerfing the range affect his gameplay significantly? Not enough to make him unplayable.

Does this ability need to work with other knock ups? No

Would increasing the CD at later levels nerf him enough to hurt his place in the game? No

Another thing would be to remove the maximum flow upon arrival because a big problem with Yasuo is that he is too tanky for what he does.

None of these changes alone would make him unplayable but would hurt him enough to where he is less excruciating to play against. Yasuo isn't binary enough to where changes like this would make him unviable.

If he is still problematic after that I would look at his passive shield.

Most people seem to think wind wall is the problem with that champion when it really is his overloaded passives and ulti.
khan119
the ult only working on his own airborne would make yasuo so fucking bad
Vulf
Nerfs his late game which is his problematic area aside from the random tankyness, but yeah I agree it's probably too much since that would make that ability way too unreliable.
Could make it only effect one target not sure why it hits multiple.

You still haven't explained to me why you think he is a terribly designed champion?
khan119
Your tweaks wouldn't make yasuo a balanced champ. He can still just crit the shit out of ad carrys no matter how far behind he is
Vulf
So you are just going to ignore my question then? Okay

His crit passive isn't anywhere near his problem which is why I said remove some of his tankyness. With supports like braum and morg being dominate there is absolutely no reason a Yasuo should be sticking to a carry to crit the shit out of them unless you got caught in his ult in which case you deserve to die.

He loses some of his tankyness means he is bursted down in fights if he tries to dive an adc.
Hika
yasuo is not okay, let's just leave it at that.
not sure how people let him catch up after he feeds enough to stop starvation in africa
Vulf
The same way they let Akali do. Similar issues.
BrokenArrow
Except that Akali is balanced
Vulf
Until Yasuo,Talon and a few other champs are nerfed she is.
Hika
Talon? Why Talon?

what
Vulf
I said until then. Not that he needs it.

If I had the choice between playing Talon or Akali I would play Talon. Easier laning phase against more matchups.

I see Talon quite often in high Diamond it's freakin annoying but you can deal with him.
khan119
i said hes terribly designed because hes unbalancable

I'm not sure why but recently I've been playing a ton of AD Nidalee and can say for sure that she's extremely fun, even when built AP she's still pretty strong. :>

Same with Akali, the amount of people that don't respect her level 6 power spike is ridiculous and I can get a kill nearly 70% of the time I hit 6.
Navizel
AD Nidalee is fun. Most of the time, I play her against Nasus. Nidalee wrecks Nasus early game by harassing him with autos and Nidalee has much more to offer in teamfights than Nasus.

I do the same but I build differently when I am fighting a Nasus or another really tanky toplaner and jng where I will usually buy sheen/phage then rush BotRK so I can actually do damage to them when they are trying to farm or get stacks. It also helps with split pushing when you buy a BotRK but you won't get as tanky sooner but you'll be more relevant late game cause you will still have the BotRK passive to help you still do dmg.

It's nice to have a top laner that actually has a ton of variety in what she can build unlike the typical rush BotRK then get tanky.

That's so mid-season 4 though, right now they go either for the Triforce or RoA rush

A lot of ranged top laners being played so "bork rush then tanky" is definitely not true..

I kinda miss Renekton being played every game.
Jing Yuan
Hey guys, fairly new player here, i have experience midlane and jungle, but no so much support or top.

Can you guys give me champ recommendations and tips for support and top?
Navizel
How new though

Top - tank damage, peel, kill enemy carry
Irelia
Put points in your R whenever (q>e>w>w>w>r>w>e>w>>>>>)
Starting Items: Crystalline Flask, 3 health pot, trinket/Doran's Blade, 1 health pot, trinket
Core build: Triforce, Choice of boots (Ninja Tabi against AD, Merc Treads against AP or heavy cc team)
Optional: Blade of the Ruined King
Against AD: Randuin's Omen/Frozen Heart
Against AP: Banshee's Veil/Spirit Visage
Extension: Guardian Angel/Thornmail

Focus on farm, Q a minion if you can't land the last hit. If your enemy got too close, auto-attack them. They will attack back or will run, E them either way. Use your W and auto-attack them to death. If they run and you can't chase, use your q to close the gap. If you have Sheen, AA-E-AA-W-AA...-Q. Make sure to know your matchup though.

Also, ult+auto+ult+auto.. for Sheen procs.

For support

What people don't seem to understand is that unlike champions like LB or Kass once Talon goes in he has no means of escape hence why he shouldn't be touched. The silence is short and you can do something about it as long as you survive the burst (as an assassin he's MEANT to burst people, I don't get all the whining). The only reason he's getting popular now is due to nerfs to other assassins, he was considered bad before but really nothing changed about him. There are so many middle lane picks that SHIT on him so hard (Ryze, Swain, Diana, Fizz, anything that can counter him with range) and his pre-6 is awful. If he gets nerfed he will probably fall to shit-tier and then be forgotten for months or years. I hope Riot won't listen to the reddit crybabies...
BrokenArrow
Yeah he is in the same situation as Akali: Godlike in low-mid elo due to his stealth, but chokes once people learn how to control him with pink wards. He is great in skirmishes at dragon or baron and he has, unlike most assassin's, strong AOE damage which can make him a strong pick even in competetive play. At least in the right hands. He can get most of his damage out before he gets bursted down so he isn't that risky of a pick, though he is mediocre at best when it comes to sieging.

I haven't seen a pro player play Talon well except for Voyboy yet, I guess people still need to figure out how to play him correctly.

I still think he deserves some changes, be it buffs or nerfs. His passive is a bit awkward and doesn't work well with his usual spell rotation.
Vulf
As more things get nerfed the stronger others get.

Look at Warwick for example. He went from a troll pick to a strong Jungler and this was all due to buffs to his items and nerfs to other strong junglers. His kit was untouched other than bugs fixes which came with even more bugs.

It's already been said by Riot that if they ever decide to nerf Talon he will be losing his silence most likely.
Jing Yuan
Thank you Navizel for the help.

I will try to learn how to play Irelia and Leona.

That's why you need to force teamfights early and get objectives so they can't get into late game. In case the game reached late game, Nidalee can splitpush just like Nasus.

Currently mid-Silver.
Jax hasn't actually been banned a ton. Yasuo, Braum, Vi, Morgana and Maokai have been the common ones.
Eren Yaeger
I always ban against my team and sometimes one ban against the enemy, always hate seeing a Yasuo go 1/10 and still thinks he can 1v3
Navizel
How come I don't see any Maokai bans and I'm mid-Silver too.

I still see a lot of players ban Jax. The only time I ban him is when I don't feel like going top and I doubt the guy who called top doesn't know how to counter or play against him.
Eren Yaeger
They nerfed Jax's early game so it's really hard for him to get going now which is why he isn't ban priority, Maokai on the other hand has 20% AoE DMG reduction that applies to his team and himself, a knockback, a root and a very large amount of self healing, all while having %HP dmg and scouting with his saplings.
Vulf
That's exactly my point?

In lower elo's people are too busy banning stuff like Jax because the higher elo/pro play stuff hasn't trickled down there yet. I don't get why Maokai is banned or even picked much top because you can outpick that so easily. It was already demonstrated in competitive play. I have yet to lose a game against a Maokai top.

I'd rather see other champions banned than Maokai - he's not really one I'd personally ban.

Maokai's ulti is useless in lower elo because people never group anyways

I only want Riot to nerf the op champions a little and add a huge buff to the champions who are never played in the LCS. The way Riot nerfs champions who are played in the LCS is they are nerfing them to the ground.
Vulf
A lot of the stuff that has been bad for years needs a rework because any straight buffs would make them broken overpowered. Poppy for example.

I would rather them just focus on reworking than making any new champions at all and any new champions currently in development should be put on hold/shelved until then. Season 4 was supposed to be the season of large scale relaunches.

Almost all the reworks that have happened this year were due to certain champions being retarded in LCS. Besides none of the reworks were even close to relaunch worthy except for maybe Xerath.

We will be lucky to see the Sion relaunch this year and that will be it. Warwick's relaunch got pushed back into 2015 due to limited art resources.

It really is trash, but I've had it for over 4 years now and its perfect for working (+school), just not for playing.
I'm thinking about saving up for a good PC soon. So, if anyone runs League on a Macbook here, I have the solution (sounds dumb but):
Apparently you have to download the newest Softwareupgrade for your Mac, and then it should run again. As you may know,
the first Softwareupgrade costs nothing BUT, you still have to enter a Creditcardnumber! Unless you buy a iTunes-Card like I did now.
So, just stick with Windows you guys, it makes everything much easier 8-)

Overloaded kits have been present since beta. Look at Kayle for example, though she has been reworked and had a ton of stuff removed from her kit over time since then so she isn't that bad anymore.

Problem is it's super prevalent now to the point they have to spend several months after that champions release to balance it (Yasuo) which is retarded seeing how many champions need help at this point.. Sad truth is they aren't going to make much money off new champions if they are designed more like Vel'Koz even though kits like that are much more healthier for the game.
