The goal of these changes is to provide Rumble's opponents with clear windows to pick fights against him during the laning phase. [[Flamespitter]] has a much longer cooldown at early ranks (10 seconds instead of 6) and [[Scrap Shield]]'s duration is down from 2 seconds to 1.5 seconds. In return for these longer windows of weakness, Rumble was compensated with some higher numbers on his basic abilities. All three reworked champions from last patch are receiving more changes. [[Rek'Sai]] and [[Kindred]] are both receiving buffs to their base stats as well as usability improvements to [[Wolf's Frenzy]] and [[Void Rush]]. Rek'Sai's, [[Unburrow]] also had its bonus AD ratio doubled from 0.4 to 0.8, which will reward her more for building damage items. Meanwhile, [[Malzahar]] has been dominating the mid lane, so he's getting some damage trimmed off of [[Call of the Void]] and [[Nether Grasp]]. On the plus side, Riot's fixed a bug where [[Quicksilver Sash]] was completely cancelling the damage of Nether Grasp, rather than just removing the suppression. Several of the currently dominant champions were hit with nerfs this patch, especially those who can make use of support items. [[Ivern]] lost up to 50 damage on [[Triggerseed]] while [[Karma]]'s [[Inspire]] had its shield value lowered for both its standard and [[Mantra]]'d forms. [[Xayah]] and [[Zac]] also received cuts to their damage output and Xayah can no longer basic attack during the cast time of [[Double Daggers]]. We'll end off with some buffs. [[Camille]]'s [[Adaptive Defenses]] have a lowered cooldown early and her second cast of [[Precision Protocol]] deals a little more damage. [[Corki]] received increases to his base AD and attack speed and his [[Hextech Munitions]] was changed from 50/50 to 20/80, so his auto-attacks will now deal mostly magic damage. [[Phosphorus Bomb]] and [[Missile Barrage]] can also now be buffered during [[Valkyrie]]'s cast time. [[Jhin]] also received some small damage buffs to [[Dancing Grenade]] and [[Curtain Call]]. Finally, [[Jax]]'s [[Empower]] now grants him 50 bonus attack range to help his combat pattern feel a bit more fluid.

[quote=Jovy]hope Yasuo wins or whatever, he looks fuckin insanse[/quote]

[quote=PsiGuard]Should I buy two legendaries for champions I don't play... :thinking:[/quote]

[quote=VexRoth]Intewesting, Is the change to Corki enough to make [[Void Staff]] his penetration item of choice? I'm not the best Corki player around, but as ADC I find his mana costs to be prohibitive. But Riot's use case (all AD team) is what I use him for so more magic damage on his autos es good. Of course a bunch of champions that didn't have MR/lvl scaling now have it... ?Happy? to see some [[Zac]] nerfs so maybe he won't be permabanned. It will slow his clear down and likely leave him a little less healthy on early clears. But I think that they've given him too much useful CC so thinking this only slightly drops his winrate. Curious change on [[Jax]]. I've seen a request on reddit for him getting the [[Lee Sin]] treatment to smooth out ward hopping with [[Leap Strike]] but Riot gives him 50 range on [[Empower]]ed autoattacks...He already had over a 50% winrate in the jungle so I'm guessing this is primarily aimed at lane [[Jax]].[/quote]

[quote=Embracing][[Void Staff]] has always been Corki's pen item ever since his autos got changed to half phys half magic IIRC[/quote]
