not to mention fantastic derp from 100% glass cannon enemy team and HEAL REVIVE NOCTURNE
but yeah akali is op
if you're new to anivia i would rush tear so you don't have mana problems, into hat or catalyst (to later upgrade to bveil).

the guy who used to play ap carry for my team rushed roa straight into hat, then void staff, with a mana crystal/2 pot startEnergy Storm said:

Not gonna comment on how broken she is, but from the streams I've been watching Morgana is a really common ban now.
I'm not sure if you noticed, but they are systematically trying to get rid of lane sustain... the morgana nerf is completely in line with previous nerfs they've made.
Lee Sin's nerf seems kind of misplaced. If I was going to nerf anything, I would nerf the slow intensity on his Cripple since at the moment it's an AoE Nunu Ice Ball... and I would probably nerf the shield strength / life steal from Safeguard / Iron Will.

That's what i don't get. What problem do they have with lane sustain? The fact that they gave it to so many champs (Gragas, Warwick, Morg, Nasus, etc) and they made champs that specifically made another champ sustainable makes me wonder what it is that changed their philosophy on the subject so much
I was going to say I don't think anyone anywhere is surprised by the Morgana or Lee Sin nerfs and then I read the thread.
Lee Sin nerf was a pretty obvious first step and probably won't be nearly enough to knock him out of FOTM, but the Morgana thing makes me roll my eyes a bit. I think the real issue making her so strong in Solo Queue in particular is the mechanics of Black Shield, which I fully expect to eventually lead to a character destroying rework, either by destroying the ability or keeping it but ruining everything else to compensate. Her passive is nice, but if you put the same passive on other champions it wouldn't spike their usage... very Riot to hit to sustain first(we had actually joked that they'd make this nerf instead of a significant Black Shield change) but this isn't going to do it for them.
Also sigh, the MF change is such a tease, she needs a little love Riot never seems to want to give her.

thats so horrible but so good at the same time Mr.E
Taric's dick? They remade him, like they have 20 other champs, and they didn't do a very good job, so they tweaked it. Don't encourage Riot to randomly nerf more sustain champs. inb4 they change Garen's stupid passive to heal .25% every second now
I'm pretty certain unskilled play reports just don't get filed.
Yeah I was going to say the same thing, I'm pretty sure it's just a combination of them giving you a placebo effect and them not wanting you to report people incorrectly so they just give the trap -- I do the tribunal thing a lot because in my mind it helps make the game better even though it probably doesn't and I have never run into an unskilled player ticket.
Unskilled player reports aren't the kind that go to the Tribunal, and I think it tells you that when you file one. I think they just help Riot with matching players of equal skill. Either that, or they just make people feel like it wasn't a total waste that they had a Yi who went 1-10 on their team,
Well, a lot of Resonating Strike's damage comes from the missing HP bit too. Can't really comment on Tempest since I can't remember ever being hit by it (welcome to my ELO)
Has anyone else been experiencing this problem lately when you can't log in and it keeps saying "the server is busy"?
i like some of the changes and i feel that they're all pretty much justified, but i don't know if riot is going the right way with them.
morg is definitely an awesome mid carry but i feel like they need to hit w's damage or its cooldown so it isn't just a faceroll farming skill without having to invest any ap into it at all. either that or tone up its mana cost a bit early game so morg's laning is harder. black shield change is justified but it should probably get a duration nerf or a shield strength nerf.
lee sin nerf was good. resonating strike scaling was just too much, good call on toning that back. safeguard range, though, wasn't the issue, it was that safeguard made your jungle super easy so you'd basically never die, even without wriggles. nerfing the spell vamp/lifesteal would be a smarter move imo, and nerfing tempest slow wouldn't hurt either (although not all of these changes should happen at once obv). perhaps even nerf the AS on his passive so his jungle is a little less powerful.
unsure about taric. don't really think he needs buffs.
mf buff is good but not really justified since she was basically the strongest early game bot laner and was quite viable overall. granted, her ultimate was used mainly for farming creeps early game but the buff to it will only make her late game better.

probably because the server is busy
