[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=Luther3000] Why fix what isn't broken? [/quote] I think it [b]is[/b] broken! That is the whole point![/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=Minho] I love your sarcasm Pølse, always makes me laugh... [/quote] I have to admit, that was quite amusing :P[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]I mean the game in general, not Flash. You're talking about basically making a whole new game just so you can remove Flash.[/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=Luther3000] I mean the game in general, not Flash. You're talking about basically making a whole new game just so you can remove Flash. [/quote] A new meta, not a new game. It's a radical change, but I think it's definitely for the good.[/quote]

[quote=Psychofrench][quote=GrandmasterD] [quote=Psychofrench] You could argue that clarity prevents people from managing their mana properly. Most of those summoner spells are there to offer an extra form gameplay, be it an escape or a safety net in term or hp or mana,etc...Instead of nerfing or removing a spell that is a fan favorite, maybe take a look at the ones that you never or barely ever see. Flash doesn't make shitty players better, it's a tool like another that people are free to pick or not to enhance their overall gameplay. [/quote] [[Clarity]] is a bad example because it is made obsolete by items such as [[Athene's Unholy Grail]] and [[Tear of the Goddess]]. Also, it doesn't have such a big impact on the game. [/quote] I know that, haha, but I'm just trying to follow your logic that Flash prevents people from positioning properly. Then we can also remove Heal since it prevents people from managing their health properly and ignite, because it prevents people from finishing their kills properly. Also, we should remove Surge, they should learn how to build their items more efficiently. While we are at it, let's remove "revive", no one uses it, and when they do, they should probably use that time being dead reflecting on why they died in the first place. Yes, Flash certainly has the biggest impact on the game of all the summoner spells, but I really doubt it would make people better or worse at the game. It would certainly disturb the balance of all things for sure. I don't know, overall I'm against removing it., I find it more satisfying to flash in to secure a kill than just igniting them and walking away.[/quote]

[quote=Psychofrench]I might try a few games without it just for the hell of it, it might change my mind.[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden]Flash does not prevent ballzy plays. It encourages ballzy play. Flash allows you to be somewhat overextended and offensively trade with an opponent whereas not having flash would make this stupid and dangerous. Good players don't just die in 1v1s, they die to unexpected things, flash adds a possibility for unexpected things to happen(jungler flashes over the wraith wall or annie flash tibberstunning you). Yes, flash is a out of jail free card, but that out of jail free card is what makes you go that extra mile to actually play agressive. Whenever i play mid my whole game changes when my flash is on CD. (i play kata, akali and anivia) I know that i as all of thoose 3 characters am safe with flash thus can i actually go into melee range and actively harrass the enemy, whenever the location of the enemy jungler is unknown to me and my flash is on cooldown i don't do this stuff simply because i know it might get me killed. To repeat myself, flash prevents passive gameplay, not the other way around.[/quote]
