patch-preview-1.0.0.114

[quote=Joobieo#41288]For this patch, were mainly focusing on bug fixes, as well as some more buffs to several champions. The reason we went for this focus was to prepare for the upcoming patch, in which were preparing some interesting solutions to damage-vs-defense, counters to tank-stacked teams, and other larger balance changes. We added an extra maximum Yordle Snap Trap to Caitlyn, which will improve her team utility presence, along with an attack speed boost to give her a little more ability to scale into late-game damage. Garens movement speed was increased to 320, and gave a massive early game increase to the damage reduction on Courage. This ability needs to be more reliable in the laning phase to allow Garen to close and be effective. Doubling the rank 1 value should be a big help in this regard. Galios ultimate has had it range increased by 50, to give it some additional value in more spread out fights. We plan to continue adjusting Galio. Finally, weve changed towers to protect better against unattended minion waves, but less against coordinated pushes. We wanted to avoid lengthening game times, but at the same time want to make it so leaving minion waves unattended isnt quite so punishing. This change aims to accomplish that. /Discuss :)[/quote]

[quote=ExamplePrime]Ugh I want more late-game deceny with Garen >>[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]They buffed Garen's early game again? Derp.[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]am i the only one annoyed by the constant caitlynn buffs everywhere? the only caitlyns i've seen outside freeweek are ones that already rape face with her.[/quote]

[quote=Searz]She's almost decent now. If they keep changing a few more things she'll be pretty good.[/quote]

[quote=Lazukin]More Galio buffs. Only a small one, but it's enough to make a good difference. Also.. Caitlyn is pretty good, just weird to build right. Every time we have a Caitlyn at middle, they either do great or build the wrong stuff. Everybody overlooks Manamune for one thing. D: Am I the only one who actually likes manamune on Caitlyn?[/quote]

[quote=Jet]yes, cause it's a terrible item on an already lackluster champion[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]I don't know what Riot is thinking with Garen, I'll take the movement speed increase since he needed it, but where is my late game scaling? I can go 10/3 in the first 20 minutes, but mid-late game he has this huge falloff that makes me want to go in a corner and cry.[/quote]

[quote=Joobieo#41288][quote=caucheka] am i the only one annoyed by the constant caitlynn buffs everywhere? the only caitlyns i've seen outside freeweek are ones that already rape face with her. [/quote] Exactly how I feel.[/quote]

[quote=ExamplePrime]Why is a Caityln buff bad? Urgot is better than her Ashe is better than her Tristana is better than her Corki is better than her Heck Sivir is better than her I mean her ult can be soooo meh Her traps are so hard to use Her Q spell hits hard but can be easily dodged[/quote]
