Removal of Flash

[quote=SixSonatas]As some of you might have heard, [[Flash]] is being removed from the choice of summoner spells very soon. What are your thoughts on this? Personally I think it's a great change, since it's one of those summoner spells that allow you to fix bad positioning, hardcore. As a DotA veteran, I believe that bad positioning should be punished, and map awareness chains to this as well. What do you think will happen to the [[Flash]] mastery? Do you think there will be a new summoner spell added? Or is there going to be a completely new mastery due to the lack of a new summoner spell to upgrade?[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]I wanna smack Riot in the face for removing it. WHY are they removing it again?[/quote]

[quote=SixSonatas]All in all, it was slowing down the game since people could avoid being ganked with a simple summoner spell. Riot always wanted League to be a more aggressive game rather than somewhat defensive like DotA was, so they're getting closer to their goal by removing this.[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]That's quite stupid, in my opinion. It's not like you can teleport far with that ability. If they want it to be more aggressive they could always limit the map size, lower turret health, etc etc. Not taking away that one slightly effective summoner spell that can be used for escapes, or positioning. Once again Riot disappoints, at least me.[/quote]

[quote=Kael312]agree with scrax, people say they cant gank when the enemy has flash, prepare for it and adjust accordingly, flash has never pissed me off, if they get away, i did something wrong, its always been that simple for me and the people i play with, we go at them from more than one direction, so whichever way they flash, its into someone[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]somebody beat ya to it alahric. [img]http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/3142/1289157950409.png[/img] also, i'd just delete it. while we're at it lets throw in another cleanse nerf.[/quote]

[quote=JACN]They need to hurry up and add a Dispel Summoner Spell. Where you can use it to take off any buffs an enemy has and keep them off for like 3 seconds. I have been playing Mundo a lot lately, I know this will cripple me maybe, but meh. Could have a lot of utility in fights. The reverse of [[Cleanse]] ftw... For the record, Flash is a Spell for people who make noob mistakes. If you use it purely for makeing your retreat, why were you even in a position to retreat in the first place. Hurk Durk, l2p..[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]the reverse of cleanse? you mean exhaust?[/quote]
