League of Legends - I don't think people understand why Aatrox was re-worked.


I don't think people understand why Aatrox was re-worked.

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 06:21 AM PDT

I see a lot of hate going towards the new Aatrox Re-work the day after it was released. Aatrox wasn't re-worked because he was a "garbage" champion. Yes he was weak prior to the recent patch, but that was because Riot intentionally nerfed him to the ground. The problem was that it was incredibly hard to balance his kit. Aatrox was either incredibly strong and OP, or incredibly weak. There was no happy medium, and even on the previous patch he one of the top 5 played top champions with over a 51% WR, which is the most "happy-medium" they were ever able to get him, and that was partially due to the wonky meta that we have been in with ADC's being gone.

It's almost the same thing with OG evelyn. People seem to forget, but the reason Eve was trash for 2-3 seasons wasn't because she had a bad kit, or was a weak champion. It was actually the opposite where her kit was broken AF, and that if you didn't nerf her to the ground she was a menace that would terrorize the whole map. They had to rework her because it was incredibly hard to balance her. People don't remember that though, and only remember that she was a "trash" champion.

Relax and give the re-work a week or two to settle in. People have always hated re-works unless the champion was completely useless like Poppy. I'm sure the hate for new Aatrox will subside and people will like him.

PSA: Delete your game logs every once in a while to free up space.

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 01:54 AM PDT

You can find them in the: C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\Logs folder if default. It's safe to remove everything within the Logs folder including all the folders. The game and client will generate new folders and log files over time.

I personally had over 7GB worth of logs accumulated over the years.

EDIT: A heads up before deleting from /u/lVIEMORIES

Just a heads up, you can use this website to get a summary of your entire match history by using these logs https://1lann.github.io/lolreader/

This Aatrox Rework Has To Be The Worst Rework In Years

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 10:40 PM PDT

As many of you know, many people are already upset with how this rework went. It changed the character's entire identity; turning him from a murder with method to his madness to a massacrer. It changed his entire kit; from an autoattack based champ to something Riven players would main. While people can pass over that, the way he plays in game feels absolutely attrocious.

Combat:

In combat he feels ridiculously clunky. Being unable to move during your Q, only being able to slightly adjust with a joke of a dash makes him complete bait for assassins and tanks. They can latch on to him and he can't hit them since his Q's can't even reach them, his chains pull people back but they can't go through minions so if they hit one during a fight he's entirely disarmed, and his E is a joke. His ult gives him speed and damage but no survivability whatsoever. If he is in a teamfight, gets surrounded, and dies, what is stopping him from just being killed again after being revived? He doesn't recieve any armor, MR, or health. He feels extremely clunky and it feels like his kit wasn't given any thought.

Visuals:

He looks like a devolved version of Aatrox. His visuals made him look like a slightly taller and redder version of Tyler1 with spikes (BECAUSE SPIKES ARE ALWAYS SO COOL!) coming out of him. The sword on his back is alright I guess, but then you can't even see Aatrox from behind until you're in combat. And that sword replaced his wings which is an essential part of his anatomy. It looks so off without him having them. Old Aatrox looked ridiculously better than the new one. He had the dark, demon theme going for him. He was tall and wore banners while having worn armor. The new Aatrox doesn't reflect this at all.

He just doesn't feel like he belongs in League right now. Not to mention that the patch he was released in felt extremely rushed. It accidentally added a new item,, the new text is completely buggy and it sometimes turns transparent revealing what's behind it as well as being off-centered. This patch and Aatrox just honestly feel rushed and lazily created. Good on paper, bad in practice.

EDIT: Some things I forgot: My solution to this is to allow him to walk while using his Q, find something other than giving him a free 20% life steal to make him viable, make his W go through minions, and give his ult something that makes him more tanky while ulting. Also, make his Q do damage throughout the entire thing, but make it knockup at the end instead of having ALL THE DAMAGE be at the end.

Idea: have an option for when you place down a ward for it to be a random ward skin

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 08:11 AM PDT

I have a bunch of ward skins laying around and I barely shuffle through them. I thought it would be cool if every time you placed a ward it would be a random one of your ward skins. Idk how complicated it would be to code or if it's even possible but if it's possible that would be nice

SSONG possibly leaves TSM?

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 08:32 AM PDT

https://lol.gamepedia.com/Team_SoloMid

"June 27, SSONG leaves coaching role.[19]"

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y7k5kQ2AegbuyiGwEPsa62e883FYVtHqr6UVut9RC4o/pubhtml#

He is also no longer in the database.

edit : The gamepedia was just updated and Ssong isn't listed as leaving. Maybe Lust is just moving to on stage position?

.edit 3: https://www.esportsheaven.com/features/tsm-moving-ssong-away-from-the-head-and-stage-coach-position-but-to-remain-with-team-sources-say/

edit 2: Wiki had it changed until an official source comes out. It's likely the Lust is on stage coach while Ssong is still on the team: https://www.reddit.com/r/TeamSolomid/comments/8ukgdj/ssong_out_lustboy_new_coach/e1g16a4/?context=3&utm_content=context&utm_medium=message&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=frontpage

Permanent poses after Jokes, Taunts, Dances, etc

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 03:32 AM PDT

We really need more Jokes, Dances and Taunts to stay in their pose. It would be awesome to be able to just sit down as Warwick until you decide to move again. Some jokes or dances already have this feature (for example Ekko), but there are way more champions with jokes and taunts, where it would work perfectly well and just look awesome (for example Fizz's taunt or Warwick's joke).

Tl;dr I want champions sitting or lying in their jokes, taunts, etc to do that permanently.

Why are we unable to make custom games for the rotating game modes?

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 10:18 PM PDT

Sometimes I have more than 4 friends on league that want to play game modes like urf or one for all but I can only invite 4. Being able to make custom games made it so that all of us could play and have fun without taking it too seriously. We were able to make customs before but are unable to now.

PSA: Get the transcendance rune if you build items with cdr in ARURF

Posted: 28 Jun 2018 09:06 AM PDT

What this rune does, is it gives you more AP/AD based on how much cdr you have above the 40% limit, and since in URF you start with 80% CD you will get a lot of extra AD/AP from this rune. It won't have any effect if you don't have any cdr from runes or items, but as soon as you build even a fiendish codex you will get more AP than a blasting wand just from it.

Also, RiP old essence reaver passive that gave cdr based on your crit chance, you'd get 500ad on trynd so easily and kill every one in 2-3 autos

It's actually insane how much time those people got in their lives. He literally only plays, eats and sleeps. I think people like that should be contacted by Riot and get some help, because that can't be healthy at all. Still pretty impressive how much somebody can love this game. Meanwhile I just hit level 70.
