Rumble; fallen out of favor?

Asked by OTGBionicArm on June 29, 2013

So this isn't a question for anything I'm working on or trying, these one is simply out of curiosity.

As I just checked on LolKing, now is in the realm of least played champions. His Win rate has also plummeted from what I remember being 53-55% at one point to now 49%.

As far as I recall, many people still claim Rumble is exceedingly powerful even after his nerfs and number tweaks.

Is this a case of people overreacting to nerfs and ditching Rumble? or is he actually not as good anymore?

Watch any competitive tournament and you'll see that Rumble is still very strong. Just because people in NA aren't playing him doesn't mean he's weak. Same deal with Xerath, he's very strong despite being one of the least picked champions in the league.

I think he just has a difficult (or maybe un-fun) playstyle. I personally don't play him because I don't really know how to use his kit well.

I agree, I still think rumble is extremely strong. His ultimate is very meh, now. It's more for utility than raw damage.

Yea, that makes sense, so you think it's more player based than an actual problem with 's power?

Dyrus just released a vlog and he said is in his top three solo-que picks.

The only thing fun about him is the ult, imo. Everything else feels a bit... boring.

I think people just got bored playing him, including myself. You basically do the same stuff every game as and ,just like Psi said, his playstyle just gets "un-fun" after awhile. That was my personal reason for putting him down.
