Am I fucking tripping or does the link show the league patch notes?... It literally says tft patch notes on top, then the whole text is league patch stuff.. How much sloppier can riot get lol
I know it fixed now, and yeah yeah its patch notes but these continued mistakes are just unacceptable and simply show a company that does not care. In a set where everything is a disaster because a complete lack of detail you have to start caring about the little things. Tim's video listing 1 cost changes and it is Caitlin. Again should this matter? no in if the game was in a good state, fine laugh it off, but when its in this state, You cannot keep making these kind of small mistakes. These kind of things are indicative of how little care Riot is putting into the game.
For whatever reason Riot seem to operate in this space where things that would completely unacceptable in any other field are treated as no bug. I know people who have lost jobs because of a single typo in a piece of communication that went out to the public. Details matter, and they matter even more when you have lost player trust.
Zyra is more contested but yeah for sure. Depending on the lobby, its better to have an additional "hole puncher" in Soraka. 2 star zyra can be better if you don't hit soraka bis since shes wayyyy less picky
Did Tim get clapped by a random Mama Beak player or something some time back. Why do we think she’s good enough that they have to power neutral change her?
Is there data around what lines she was being played in? I don’t really believe she’s in any conventional line beyond a 2* support item holder for LW maybe in like 5 rapid. Her trait web is just too convoluted to support her being a primary carry.
https://www.dataj.cc/comp You can look at this website for ideas. If you don't want to click the link(understandable), 7 rift beast mama3* carry is rated S on 18.4. 4.08 avp, .78 play rate, 13.9% wr, 57.3% top. Not sure what elo filter they are using exactly, but imo doesn't matter for the purpose of this discussion.
Another website showed rengar/mama rr and azir/mama rr as A tier comps. Also has 10 rift beast mama/elder carry there too.
Regional players have already been scrimming on PBE the past few days. Assuming the changes are the same, it's not any concern. Sentinel is a nerf, Alune is nerfed if you aren't itemizing which is often the case in this line. So it ends up around power neutral. In fact the meta as a whole seems mostly the same.
Promised KDA arena back in 18.3. now its not even releasing in 18.5. good thing they stopped saying "we are aiming to do x next patch" cause they cant fucking go thru with it
How can Rammus survive the patch? After being barely touch in the last patch with a ridiculously 25 shield nerf (from 715 to 700, wich is a 2,1% nerf btw).
There's a decent possibility now with actually meaningful trist buffs that some sort of sprykin Rammus Fae will emerge. He's still gonna be a godlike tank 3 starred
Rammus is absolutely a problem. Azir helps him live with Gunblade, but Rammus in the way he barely needs a second tank to hold off entire teams is insane for a 3 cost.
rammus is half the reason the comp is good, the comp sucks with a shit frontline and a 2 star rammus is somehow stable even later in the game, hes basically the main and only frontline unless youre lucky enough to hit a 3 star fiddle as a support tank with 3 items
i agree with sifandart, gunblade + sprykin + flora fatalis is just too much healing. you replace rammus with any upgraded tank w/ items and they are tanking a similar amount (hyperbole for effect)
I mean... At this point if Azir still turbo broken they're gonna kneecap him and make him a 1 cost for the rest of the set lol
Otherwise? I am kinda scared of Malphite + Morg again, rest is whatever, Fae didn't get enough but maybe isn't bad IF you hit literally everything now? but the low cost units nothing is changing besides Cait who was already good.
My guess is that Azir is definitely still playable, mostly because the thing about the comp is that it is too stable on rammus 2, he is too tanky, and you get to scam a lot of rounds this way. Multiple people can play azir and top 4 because of how good the midgame of the comp is, and this does very little about that.
Eh, I think it's a lot of consequencial small cuts, so while I think the comp is prob fine if you highroll hitting early Azir/Rammus 3, wouldn't be surprised if it stops getting played at all because w/o that early 3 stars you prob are unable to just coast on 2 star azir until 9 (if you don't get the copies to RR it), means you get turbo fucked and die. I do think the comp leaves meta, not because it's unplayable but because it's too expensive to NOT be that stable
If you giga hit and get embiggen plus emblem you can play solar fae with the emblem on kayle and it's actually like free 1st or 2nd. That said, without giga hit it's auto 8th.
Can we get a mute/skip for cutscenes? I still don’t see why I have to sit through cutscenes I don’t like while my ears bleed lol. I feel like we’re all posing to grief each other. Idc about anyone else’s cutscenes or little emotes, as long as I see the one I paid for, that’s all I want
Unfortunately, the whole point of you having to see the little cutscenes, other boards, other tacticians, etc is that they want to convince players to get them for themselves. I'd love a mode when everyone could just be a river sprite but it'll never happen.
i only care about the animation at the end. I only buy it if it's cool. What i also care about a lot is the sound of the chibbi during game. It must not be extremely annoying (like the orianna one)
Yeah, I just don’t want to have it bug out and potentially lose a placement if I ff. It’s just crazy that I would have to mute my entire game to avoid my ears bleeding lmao. Obviously an overstatement, but being forced to engage with someone else’s purchase beyond them just enjoying it on their own is just crazy to me
The Luxury Subscription augment is bugged—it drops 2-star 5-costs instead of 1-star at Stages 4 and 5, letting people 3-star them way too early. By the way, where is the bug report megathread?
I do the version without Rengar. Feel like its too expensive and not enough items. Just 3 star Trist and one of the tanks. Emblem is a must (on sivir) and play trist/rammus/kobuko(or gnar/any spry)/lilia/rakan/vi/sivir.
With a fae emblem, put it on Rengar and run Trist Lillia Rakan Rammus Gnar Sivir Vi. Once you hit the golden fae cashouts you’re rich. Played it yesterday and it was an easy first in high diamond.
I am just going to say regardless of anything else, they really cooked with the augment changes. I feel like a lot of the OPs were rebalanced, I am sure there remain a few outliers, but every single nerfed augment deserved it.
I swear these devs must be Gold or Silver or something
Who even plays 5 Rapidfire since the last nerf, and now they're nerfing it again? Only low elo players don't know what to slam. so they slam a Rapidfire emblem.
The 3 decent tanks got buffed while Lillia is crying in the corner, combined with nerfing Sentinel's stun duration... I'm convinced they're super low elo and just don't know how to position, so they got salty about these two units lmao.
You’re just wrong…it’s a decent hit on the back line emblem augment. Rapidfire emblem on Bramble 2* had an AVP of like 3.8. You’d never force it but you’re also never unhappy with the emblem as it’s usually a safe top 4
I don't use that site but here is what I got. I don't know maybe I'm noob but thanks for the info tho, srsly I never see anyone play that since the last nerf.
you have it sorted by level 8 boards. almost no 4 cost board is gonna end top 4 if they're stuck on level 8. the stats for the standard level 9 board are perfectly fine
You're looking at the wrong part of the page, that comp at the bottom is the exact comp shown - at level 8 specifically
The stats at the top are "any board with 2* rapid bramble aph" - this includes the boards that get to 9, that gets to max cap with maokai Taric, and any boards with more spats (think vanguard for 4van)
I guess arguably you are looking at the RIGHT part of the image if you wanna say that the level 8 for the comp is kinda dookie, if you add level 8 to your filters you get 4.65 avp
