Yay! New Patch Preview! WHAT NO VIDEO?!??!

[quote=caucheka][quote=Visfarix]As much as I agree with this, Guinsoo has stated that he and every other champion designer he's talked to are willing to nerf just about everything but Rammus's taunt duration. Don't be expecting a nerf to this anytime ever =( [/quote] why? its easily the most op skill in the game, garanteeing kills left and right.[/quote]

Jesus Christ 3 seconds is ridiculously long. And when you factor in his W, the taunt is freekill on carry because Q + Flash is also ridiculous.[/quote]

[quote=SixSonatas]So this is definitely going to screw with my Taric build. FML.[/quote]

[quote=PotatisFarfar]Can't wait to see new ryze >:D I can agree with all the nerfs pretty much, Anivia nerf don't bother me, i always get golem at lvl 6 any way ^^[/quote]

[quote=SixSonatas]Oh and for those of you who are complaining about Rammus taunt duration: it's not OP, it can be easily countered with a few wards. People just complain about it being OP because they're too stupid to do anything about it. Ever think of [[Quicksilver Sash]] or [[Banshee's Veil]] or both? Rammus will never taunt you again. The same thing goes for Mordekaiser's ultimate; get QSS and he'll never ult you again. I hate it when people say things are OP when you can completely counter them with proper use of wards and items. Agree with Vlad changes though, his early game (before counter items) was too strong and practically uncounterable if Vlad knew what he was doing, this would later scale onto a strong mid and late game for Vlad, and makes it hard to counter him as a whole.[/quote]

[quote=Trojan995][quote=hypershatter] the Anivia "nerf" is more of a nuisance than anything significant. but hey w.e shuts the wave of sheeps up works the way i see it. [/quote] This is the single greatest thing they can do. They've been taking the "nerf champions baby steps at a time" route so as to not piss off the regulars of that champion, and to satisfy the enemies of that champion. They haven't been so lenient with items, however; they've basically gotten away with nerfing a whole set of items into the ground because people don't have any specific attachment to them.[/quote]

[quote=shinussiel]3 of my most played champions getting nerfed. Great.....Atleast the nerfs aren't that bad :D[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn][quote=Chaotic Bliss] who has the longest taunt? Is it Shen or Rammus [/quote] Rammus at 3 seconds, Shen at 2.5. [quote=Patch Preview] Ultimately, we wanted to create a character that would thrill those players looking for a high skill-cap champion with an active, fast-paced play style. [/quote] [quote=Patch Preview] a high skill-cap champion with an active, fast-paced play style. [/quote] [quote=Patch Preview] a high skill-cap champion [/quote] [quote=Patch Preview] Ryze [/quote] lol[/quote]

[quote=Trojan995]I agree with sixsonatas about the taunt not being OP, but not for the same reasons. Rammus is OP because out of the jungle he can speed up to incredible MS., and unless you're turret hugging both you AND your lane partner will be knocked up + slowed, then 1 of you will be taunted. His taunt alone is no worse than taric's dazzle or sion's cryptic gaze. The major problem was his incredible all-around initiate/chase/CC skill. They won't change his taunt because even if they nerfed him so hard his powerball made him slower, he'd still have an ace in the hole as a great anti-carry. Basically all he needs to do to get focused is taunt the carry. Which is why Udyr is such a great tank: bear stance at the enemy carry, turtle stance and watch as the enemies drop like flies because they were too stupid to focus the enemy carry.[/quote]

[quote=Kael312]taunt is better than stun because, especially with rammus, you hurt yourself, while you just sit through a stun and banshees veil is great, if rammus is stupid enough to just try taunting without breaking it, which is very low chance[/quote]
