Rant I miss the days when bruisers/tanks actually frontlined

14 Upvotes

When I see people pick Maokai, Voli, Trundle, etc, I was always like “oh cool, one other person to frontline with me against the 90% chance of seeing 5 ranged poke. Its doable but still miserable”.

Now they almost always go AP every single game. Just pure misery.

Mayhem "Get jinxed" augment is too powerful

29 Upvotes

You can currently use it in combat, which essentially gives everyone access to a free stasis effect.

I think restricting it to out-of-combat use would be a simple and fair change. It wouldn't take away any of the fun or intended purpose of the spell, since it's designed as an engagement tool, not a "get out of jail free" card.

Mayhem Meele is literaly unplayable this patch

110 Upvotes

I didnt think it could even be possible, but this patch is even worse for playing meele than before. If you aint picking range you just gonna eat shit till the game is over. I swear you could give every meele a straight + 30% hp buff and they would still be completely unplayable. Everytime its the same, you eat shit for 20 minutes and then you might scale enough and get to play for 5 minutes before the game is over.

- Combo breaker never procs and when it does, youre pretty much dead anyway

- Everyone somehow always has 100 + ability haste and plays urf. Tenacity as counter is absolutely useless since knock ups and all this shit is not even affected.

- There are almost no augments that help tanks or bruisers to gain some surviveability. Why is every augment pretty much "deal more dmg".

- Resistances are absolutely useless in this mode. 200 armor or mres and youre still paper.

Discussion You are playing for your life*, and you get 10 champion bans and 5 auguments bans. What do you ban?

Just for fun. This is your life* or whatever you think you care most of (for those who might say, gg I dc).

Teams are balanced at your skill level but you can ban 10 champs and 5 augments. Probablt shouldn't focus on what annoys you rather what you find most broken.

Discussion I'm seeing a theme here

20 Upvotes

Anytime there's an aug that's "strong" or OP, people want it removed, or reworked. I feel that's why we keep getting stat augs instead of augs that have cool effects or interactions.

I genuinely wouldn't have wanted them to remove critical missiles, fan the hammer, or even drop kick. Now I'm seeing people want Bees removed. It's genuinely a fun aug to watch and see people get damaged by. What happened to the philosophy of just boosting other augs or making other augs stronger instead of removing it?

Discussion Tanks?

2 Upvotes

Feel like senna or vayne with heart steel is so much better than any tank besides zac since he scales so well, it just feels terrible to be a tank.

This is not a drop kick discussion just a general state of tank discussion, feel like non of them feel great and you are spending the whole game just being farmed under tower for 20 minutes. I've been playing more assassins and fighters and it's been alright but just feels impossible to actually play a tank and make anything happen.

What do y'all think?

was tilted xd and lost 10 games in a row and all of them are one shoting me and tanks are being bs as always, but ye eventually it will die out like urf back in ma days.

Mayhem Busted Augment Combo Belveth

Post image
14 Upvotes

So I got Third Times The Harm first augment. If you haven’t seen it yet it’s basically infinitely stacking Vayne W. You get 6% max health true damage every 3 autos and an extra 10 true damage every time you proc it. With Belveth E you can reliably proc it multiple times at once. By the end of the game I was doing almost 900 true damage every 3 autos plus the 6% max health.

I forget the name of the second augment but it’s basically Kaisa passive. After 5 autos or ability hits it does percent missing health magic damage and heals you for a percentage of the damage dealt. It scales with attack speed so it has crazy synergy with Belveth passive. By the end of the game it did 57% missing health magic damage.

I think this kind of illustrates the crazy amount of raw damage they added with this update because there was basically no counter play considering I built almost full tank and oneshot anyone in half a second.

Mayhem Haste is causing problems.

56 Upvotes

Ability haste is much too abundant in the augment pool and leads to a less engaging stand offish gameplay. Between infinite recursion, eureka, archmage, shrink engine, recursion, bread and butter, bread and cheese, bread and jam, the 4 ult haste augments, the 3 pursuit of haste augments, purist caster, and probably even more that I forgot every single champ is able to get a haste augment every game.

This leads to the massive CC loops we all know and hate and constantly shrinks the windows people have to capitalize and play the game.

Some champions have massive area control abilities that paired with presence of mind's free near infinite mana just arent fair or fun for anyone. (Taliyah rocks, Hwei's entire lane wide fire that lingers till its back up).

The only thing you can do is to dive into a setup where ap shaco and teemo set up 20 traps with their 300 haste. You somehow have to weave through 1000+ range abilities that literally stun and turn your character around on a 4 second cooldown. When you inevitably cant cross the 3 screen distance without landing a max range snowball they had 5 seconds to react to just remember the enemy is more skillful.

Its mindblowing that as a tank against 5 mage teams you're not safe, because theres no lack of dps when everybody has 300 haste.

A few months ago I was yapping about a 14 lose streak. At this point, I had something like 50 more wins that losses (my record was around 100). I thought "Yeah that's it, that will be the baseline, I'm a better player than regular aram (where I have 100 more losses than wins)".

Of course it's all an illusion, I'm actually BANG ON AVERAGE at this game lol. I'm just not that good. at first I felt bad because "Good number higher than bad number" but then... It's all about a fun gamemode that's not competitive.

I'm still yapping there, because I'm on a bad lose streak too, and it's even more difficult since the new set, but hey, it's just a game.

I feel lighter now, I can enjoy the game now (until the next rant).

Have a nice evening!

Why should I play against ap miss fortune with bees and skilled sniper when I can just end the game in under 8 minutes? Why should I play the bees encounter and watch the enemy poke comp continuously get 100 gold and heal half their health bar? This will also lower my mmr so I can get more fun games. Thoughts???

That's it. That's the post. Why does she do so much damage and why is the QE range so high? It's basically an aoe xerath E that comes out faster and does more damage​.

She cucks divers. She cucks adcs. She stops engages and plays at such a far range

And the best part? She somehow always gets 100+ ability haste and has E up every 5 seconds
