Patch 5.7 Summary

[quote=emoriam][quote=Out Of Pancakes]The [[overdrive]] change is pretty interesting.[/quote] I hope it causes people to not constantly use [[Overdrive]] when running around ...[/quote]

[quote=utopus]The change is pretty devastating to [[blitzcrank]] imo. Its' rework means that his out of combat mobility is greatly hindered, as well as his ability to escape. I guess it was a pretty necessary change, since even if you were a little out of position, there would be counterplay to [[rocket grab]], as blitz could just run up, [[power fist]] you, and then rocket grab you. This makes it less punishing for immobile ADCs, and at least gives them a chance to live if they can keep blitzcrank away from them for a [i]little[/i] bit. I'm a little disappointed that riot didn't decrease the mana cost of [[overdrive]] though. This change will make blitzcrank a lot weaker now imo[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Apparently it's also bugged right now and actually lowers your movespeed after the first split second. riot why[/quote]

[quote=Latest Legend]Haven't tested it yet. I hope it isn't time to start learning [[thresh]]. 90% seems a lot on paper though, it might actually be better for a runner-up [[power fist]], just worse for overall movement. We'll see.[/quote]

[quote=XeresAce]tbh that's the sole reason I hated blitz, he literally ran up to your face and knocked you up and if you flashed/dashed it was just an easy grab AND if you flashed after the grab he just ran up to you and knocked you up again :<[/quote]

[quote=Jovy]Happy about the Bard buffs and Blitz [s]change[/s] n-nerf? I don't understand why the change makes him so much weaker but nice I'll go with it.[/quote]

It's going to be annoying for overall positioning and movement between lanes and during teamfights though. I think this is a pretty out of the blue change anyway.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=Latest Legend]I hope it isn't time to start learning [[thresh]].[/quote]You make learning [[Thresh]] sound like a bad thing. I only recently decided to actually pick him up and I'm really happy I did, he's so good.[/quote]

[quote=Latest Legend]To me, Thresh is overall better than Blitz. Which is a bad thing for me xD I take everything back I said about the new w, it's terrible. I wonder if the overall velocity is even as good as just walking. Not having the mobility outside of fights is so bad. Though after one game I guess I haven't found the upsides of the spell yet.[/quote]
