Feature Speculations

 

 

Gangplank

 

We found Gangplank's lane dominance and global presence a bit overwhelming for newer placers to lane against, this is especially so with his global presence making it hard for the enemy team to take objectives even if he was absent, so we've made some adjustments to these issues to add more counterplay in specific matchups while also improving Gangplank's Game Flow.

 

 

Q - Parrrley

No longer grants bonus gold on last hit.

No longer applies Grog-Soaked Blade

Can no longer critical (Still applies on-hit effects)

Mana cost now 55 (Down from 50/55/60/65/70)

 

R - Cannon Barrage

No longer global (Range is now 5000)

Now scales with AD (0.01 AD Ratio, down from 20% AP Ratio)

No longer deals damage to monsters.

 

 

Urgot

 

We feel Urgot is in a good spot right now, but we've found that it can be very frustrating to play against him due to his ability to lock-on to a target, providing no chance for counterplay. We've ironed out some of these issues to improve his overall Game Flow.

 

Q - Acid Hunter

Can no longer target players beyond it's normal maximum range.

Now also scales with AP (15% AP Ratio)

No longer interacts with Terror Capacitor.

 

General

Urgot's movement speed increased from 335 to 340

 

 

Rammus

 

Rammus has traditionally been one of the premiere tanks of the League. We want him to retain that feeling without making opposing players as if his disabling power is impossible to counterplay against. This led us to decrease the duration of his taunt, but we want to shift more power into the rest of his kit to compensate to improve his Game Flow.

 

Q - Power Ball

No longer scales with AP

Damage now scales with armor (10% armor ratio)

Overall movement speed bonus decreased by 25%

Mana cost reduced to 75 from 70/80/90/100/110

Cooldown increased to 15 seconds from 10.

 

 

W - Defensive Ball Curl

Now makes Rammus look 13% rounder.

 

 

Graves

 

Marksmen are a difficult bunch, fragile early and powerful late. This is the balance we have strived for, but Graves has been making our struggle seem brobdingnagian. His ability to bully enemy marksmen and scale efficiently into late game while providing high utility was not intended. So we're adjusting some of his values during the preseason to increase his AoE presence while improving his overall Game Flow. 

 

 

W - Smoke Bomb

No longer applies a slow.

Duration decreased to 3 seconds (from 4).

Now scales with AD (0.1 AD Ratio).

 

True Grit (Passive)

Adjusted scaling so it starts at 0.5 Armor/Magic Resist per second and reaches it's current maximum value at level 16.

Now gives Graves a more visible aura when at max stacks to allow for counterplay.

 

 

Kassadin

 

Kassadin has been giving us trouble, so we are fixing a couple of things that will lead to improved Game Flow.

Improved his running animation!

Kassadin's autoattack is now smoother.

Hard to believe they're even considering of nerfing Rammus, Urgot and Gankplank.

Well source of the things regarding the 1 part is this:http://www.eclypsia.com/en/lol/news-5834.html They 're taking place on PBE so we can expect most them if not all on the live servers as well.

 

Now considering the part involving Gp/Rammus/Urgot/Graves these are just speculations from the official forums but usually speculations have a small degree of accuracy so i wouldn't be surprised in seeing these changes applied on the PBE server.

 

Finally about the Riven nerf...it's actually a minor buff(already taking place) rather than a nerf as you will guys find out for yourselfs(source:http://www.reignofgaming.net/news/26831-unofficial-pbe-patch-notes-for-12-18-2013-new):

 

Riven

 

Base damage is now 51 (down from 54 compared to last PBE patch)

Riven

 

Broken Wings [ Q ] - 1st and 2nd Use: Now deals 10/30/50/70/90 damage (down from 30/55/80/105/130 compared to last PBE patch)

Broken Wings [ Q ] - 3rd Use: Now deals 10/30/50/70/90 damage (down from 30/55/80/105/130 compared to last PBE patch)
