Patch .120 notes

*deep breath*

League of Legends v1.0.0.120
Yorick, the Gravedigger

* Omen of War: Yorick’s next attack will deal bonus physical damage and summon a Spectral Ghoul that deals additional damage and moves faster than Yorick’s other ghouls. While the Spectral Ghoul is alive, Yorick moves faster as well.
* Omen of Pestilence: Yorick summons a Decaying Ghoul that arrives with a violent explosion, dealing damage and slowing nearby enemies. While the Decaying Ghoul remains alive, nearby enemies continue to be slowed.
* Omen of Famine: Yorick steals life from his target and summons a Ravenous Ghoul that heals Yorick for the damage it deals.
* Omen of Death (Ultimate): Yorick conjures a revenant in the image of one of his allies. If his ally dies while its revenant is alive, the revenant sacrifices itself to reanimate them and give them time to enact vengeance.
* Unholy Covenant (Passive): Yorick’s attacks deal more damage for each summon that is active. Meanwhile, Yorick’s ghouls deal some percent of Yorick’s Attack Damage and have some percent of his total health.

I like the Nunu and Gangplank changes but I'm not too much of a fan of the Eve nerfs. Removing the stun was enough, but they just killed her completely.

who cares eve was ****.

Gangplank is so gonna be my new jungle main.

Go, go Udyr buffs!

yeah well i liked taric in the jungle till hot**** did it at dreamhack or whatever.

I love the auto target they've added to blitz and poppy. Now I won't have to worry about accidentally not knocking someone up after I grab them. Also love the added feast particle for Cho'gath, it's gonna be much easier to Nomnom people with the guesswork taken out.

They absolutely killed eve IMO. Sure the slow can almost be considered evened out since they increased the duration and it's a pretty hefty slow at max rank, but the nerf to her ult is just way too much.

Kassadin looks to be a full on caster now. No more funky AD/AS ArmorPen builds anymore. Good change I guess.

Sad about taking out the ward interactions. I'm gonna really miss those. I loved blocking rammus powerballs. It was so much fun.

****ing BS *** patch. Just ********. Nerfed so many champions to the ground. Like ****.

Eve was nerfed to the ****ing ground. Has zero chance of being useful, slow's are useless and she can now just be completely ****ed up unless you build a ****ing tanky *** Eve. The ultimate nerf was ****ing bs, half the health isn't even enough to block 1 spell, she needed a BUFF to that in order to be at least even semi-viable, she just sucks *** now. Won't even be able to kill 1 person she's so ****ing squishy. They just ruined her.

Jax doesnt need any more nerfs, was pretty bs. AD Jax is head and shoulders below AP now, which is still pretty b****ty.

Ruined Kass's theory crafting possibilities, yes now he's a better mage but you can really no longer go ArP or AD Kass which really ****ing pisses me off, he was a lot of fun to play, and now he's just another ****ty burst mage like 50 other characters.

Malz nerf was ok. Hopefully won't be able to just solo against everyone and lol at them with his ult.

Nunu nerf wasn't that bad. He's probably still going to pwn everyone in the jungle.

Kind of glad about Rumble's nerf. Dude was tanky as **** and his ult was death from above. I don't know if it'll affect him that much.

Udyr buff was pretty good. I dont know if it will affect his jungling so much. Tiger is probably still better imo.

Love the Blitzcrank change.
Means I can auto-hit with Power Fist instead of hoping I'll hit them. :D

Yay for Heimerdinger mana cost buffs!

Shaco bugs fixed. +1

And AHA! I knew the Zhonya active + Gate trick was a bug on Twisted Fate!
In your face, everyone who felt I should add it to my guide. This writer does not condone reliance on bugs!

Vladimir and Malzahar nerfs were too bad.
Still definitely worth playing if you're with a good team.

Jax
*Jax is no longer able to Leapstrike onto a ward.
What the heck, now how is he supposed to escape without flash up?!?

Irelia
*Now heals Irelia based on the actual damage dealt (instead of a % of the raw damage dealt), but the heal is not reduced if the damage is shielded
More nerfs.... again...

Vladimir
* Transfusion
o Cooldown adjusted to 12/10/8/6/4 from 12/10/8/6/3
o Damage adjusted to 90/125/160/195/230 from 70/115/160/205/250
They only prolonged the cool-down, but buffed the skill early game? wtf?

Items
* Hextech Revolver spell vamp reduced to 15% from 20%

*sadface*


I'll go to my corner now.


EDIT: Jax's early game is already squishy hell we had to find a way with runes to make him not as ****ty. Now they nerf his Leap Strike so he has no escape mechanism or the damage that made attack damage Jax so good?

Buff his health early game or someone dies and let him jump on wards again ffs.
