This isn't an even swap: we expect Zoe to land on the weak side when 8.4 hits. We're bumping up her base health and passive scaling so she still has power, just less of the the "one-shot you with naked Q" levels she was sometimes reaching. That's a lot of nerfs, and while Zoe is frustrating to play against, her win rate numbers aren't reassuring. We're moving some damage into More Sparkles! and cutting a bunch more-the net result is about 20% less damage to the primary target at most points in the game. Landing sleep into a long-ranged Q is Zoe's signature combo (and her largest source of damage), but even unsleeped targets are losing most of their health to one hit once Zoe has a few items. Taking that refund away-and giving opponents better ways to remove Sleep-makes Sleep feel less unavoidable and brings her overall damage output down.įinally. Attacks reduce this ability's cooldown by 0.5 seconds. Zoe's also getting to Sleep far too many targets, especially in teamfights where she's almost guaranteed to get her E cooldown reduction. Kai'Sa supercharges her void energy, gaining between 55 / 60 / 65 / 70 / 75 to 110 / 120 / 130 / 140 / 150 movement speed depending on her attack speed and becoming ghosted while charging, then she gains 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 / 80 attack speed for 4 seconds. We're making wave clear one of Zoe's most notable weaknesses, meaning she'll have fewer opportunities to make use of her anti-champion strengths. If you just want a TL DR, we're nerfing the most frustrating parts of Zoe.įirst, Zoe's wave clear is good enough to frequently shove her lane in and roam-punishing the enemy mid laner with heavy poke damage if they try to follow.
#Top lane tank buster 2017 Patch
There's Zoe, Rengar, and Volibear, plus some smaller changes mixed in.ĭig into the patch notes now so you're prepared to hop onto the Rift when the patch hits live! We want to make a more variant top lane, so we're addressing those outliers and working to make a more satisfying experience overall.įinally, we're pushing some big changes to a few champions we think require the gameplay changes. At a top secret research facility in the 1960s, a lonely janitor forms a unique relationship with an amphibious creature that is being held in captivity. With Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Octavia Spencer. We've seen a few top laners make the laning phase too consistent with sustain or base damage: Most champions can't fight them, and they can just avoid the ones who can. The Shape of Water: Directed by Guillermo del Toro. Mages often have fixed build paths, so we wanted to give them new items-and revamp the old ones-to create more choice overall.Īfter that, let's go top lane. This is probably our first true "big patch," so it's structured differently than normal.įirst, we're looking into mage itemization, and there's been a minor overhaul on those items.
I, for one, hate bureaucrats and I'd have no reservations in telling them to go 'jump in the coldest lake In Alberta.' Sometimes I dream that bureaucrats are forced to stand at. I'm guessing this one touched a nerve with those of us who don't like bureaucracy. We've changed our patch cycle to alternate between larger game updates and shorter balance tweaks. 10 in our Top-Read Comics of 2017 is the supremely illustrated '9 Chickweed Lane'. But I haven't enough trials to say - YES.Welcome to patch 8.4, the one that's pretty huge.
I've recently been playing with the idea of starting assassin and ending tank-buster. But I have to reach late game with a weaker team and unless I feast on the enemy tank (which isn't too likely) or the enemy team, I'm buying really expensive items too late for the effect. When I go tank-buster, I can take down towers and, in late game, I can 1v2 and in team fights I am very mobile and can Ace them. keeping the tank's team in famine so that in team fights, that tank may be a tank but, in military terms, it has no infantry.īut it really depends on which strategy you run. I think one of the aspects of Quinn that's going unsaid is that although Quinn can itemize as a Tank-Buster she runs a severe risk of Famine if so Others prefer to itemize as an Assassin and never make it to late game I.e.
