The LoL Patches thread

I predict she'll be run toplane and stomp there because of her natural disengage, harass, and ability to insta-win trades with blind plus how absurdly safe she is. Then in teamfights she can just wreck people with her gapcloser with a huge slow, AoE blind, and 80% MS and AS steroids then an execute to clean up.

[COLOR="#0000FF"]Don't forrget the aoe execute pentas.

INSTABUYING HER LOL.

Testing her on PBE, so far she's pretty cool. The change into val is awesome. You move SO fast. Chase down dem low hps!

Edit, master Yi q now has a .5 ad ratio. I was actually thinking about this and then they add it. I think they should increase it to .7 at least, but hey, at least q will be better for ad now. They should do the same for Warwick's q.[/COLOR]

Her passive can give so much Damage that you can get away without buying some damage early on. (Just need confirmation of the downtime of Valor marks)

Her E its interesting to say the least. It may work a little more as a disengage against melee rather than a gap closer (Although obviously it can be used as such).

Also, Blade of the Ruined King Now OP. Active was changed from 150 + Some Ad Ratio to 150 + 10% of Max Hp = Use it on tank recover lots of HP.

P.S: Its fun playing her as a Bruiserish kind of gurl, Frozen hammer and BoRK as Core, Too bad her CD are too high to use Trinity effectively.

Fucking said what I was thinking you bastard

Apparently we're not original, even that Tin VI scum Morello thought of it too.

[COLOR="#0000FF"]That's the only reason I even buy adcs. If it can play top lane then I'ma buy it.

I'm gonna try max cdr Quinn, same as my top lane ez build. Cdr shoes, frostborn and cleaver. Kite sooo hard with Quinn's E when you have frost born.

Max cdr her q is only about 4.8 seconds, and e is 5.2 or something, so not too bad. And E+Passive together = 0.7 ratio, so when you think about that she's pretty nice.

New botrk also gives attack speed, so I'll most likely buy that next on her, then something like wits end/maw, and mallet or something.[/COLOR]

I want to rush BorK on her. That 80% AS steroid as Valor.

She seems amazing. I'm heavily considering buying her.

Edit: Instabuy with RP if her skin turns out to be good. Only problem seems to be her ult is a bit lackluster...all I'll be using it is to chase enemies.

Or get away, or drive by rob a baron. I think she'd be a sick jungler too so there's still that.

Stonewall died while trying to jungle her, so no can do.

Not to mention I'd rather stick in human form trying to run away, unless the enemy team like majorly lacks cc. Once the enemies stop chasing me the ult's second active becomes quite useless.

Gorgeous taric getting and outrageous change to his passive?! Instead of Mana per AA its not Bonus Magic Damage per AA based on Maximum Mana! His very own Maramune?!

Also BoRK changes... Possibly nerfed for Bruisers and fighters, but buffed for AD casters and carries, its lifesteal got removed but now your passive recovers 30% of your TOTAL Attack damage per hit O.o. Active was removed 50 flat hp, but duration buffed to 4 secs (Also if you didn't know, active now deals 10% of maximum health). Also 30 AD and 40AS now instead of 40AD 30AS and 10LS (Slight increase in price too.)

Spirit of elder lizard nerfed to 14-50 True damage.

Nerf'd red buff item and hecarim w? GG

So apparently the outrageous passive of Taric will be 4% of Maximum Mana with double damage against champs, his very own Maramune

Manamura, FH, Frostborn, Banshee taric go. Add in one attack speed item and boom penta kill

* Shatter no longer gives a flat 10-30 armor aura, instead radiating X% of Taric's armor to allies.
* Shatter has an armor scaling damage ratio.
* Taric's passive changed to deal X% of his maximum mana as bonus damage.


Taric is a generalist support pick that has a success rate far far far above his compatriots at the moment. We have a couple options on where to go with him at this point - but in general, Taric suffers from being a generalist lane bully to transitioning to a walking ball of aura statistics for his team.

This tends to lead to Taric feeling like he does very little overall to the team - even if he is adding something like 1000 Gold to everyone's base statistics.

Keep in mind, we're still heavily iterating the numbers on him. In the end, Taric should be a compelling pick if you are facing a heavy attack damage team and we'll adjust the aura value until he fits that mold.

Taric's base AD reduction is mostly compensate for his passive attack damage which is still undergoing numerical tuning.

Building Armor on taric became important now :O

The Taric love! It's fabulous.

Feels good seeing the first champion I ever bought get some work. Now all he needs is a visual rework, and he will be truly, truly outrageous.

Apparently these changes are somewhat a nerf to him lol, apparently he's been the king of solo queue support for a while and riot wants to bring him down of his throne.

I'd consider them more of a change than a nerf, just bringing some of the early game aura presence to the late game (given you build armour). The built-in Muramana is a welcome upgrade, too. It's not like I spent too much time auto-attacking for dat mana regen.

Oh, and the delicious mana cost decreases.

So will Taric toplane be a thing now? Esp with all the passive armor he gets, there's potential there vs physical tops. He's got built in sustain and the damage changes will give him options for trading.

I hate the changes with Taric. I can't stomp bot lane with him anymore. RIP 83% win rate.
