Yeah I meant, you already realised what Hyfe posted before he made the post that's why you stopped playing.

But then people whine about me playing Soraka and it makes me lock in faster... LOL. Then again I only play normal games =P

Afking is actually harder than leaving though, IMO

This patch was greatly unneeded.

Seriously, who was complaining about twitch, especially after last patch?

[Ivramire]

High-Elo apparently. I can kinda see the point. By itself and with little-to-no items, Spray and Pray was probably the best DPS skill in the game. Now it has a hard-cap.

I actually thought that this was actually a good post by Zileas:

Well... RE twitch --

Champions scale a few different ways. Combat effectiveness is DPS multiplied by HP...

So...

Good N^2 scalers:
Annie scales at N^2 -- CDR * AP
Olaf scales at N^2 -- HP * HP

And a typical N^5 phys scaler (more like N^3)
Ashe scales at N^5 (really, more like N^3 beacuse a lot of these are not easy to scale in game) -- Dmg * Attack Speed * crit chance * crit damage done * armor pen

Only champion in the game that truly scales at N^4 prior to this patch? Twitch and Tryndamere, ad Tryndamere is far more conditional and easier to CC.

Twitch goes another level over that with his multi-target auto-attack ult that also has on-hit procs. Just not easy to balance

No other champion can really pull off the AoE damage that Twitch can. Miss Fortune kind of has a similar effect but hers is a channel, doesn't proc, and does less damage than Twitch's.

And in some ways, this change actually helps Twitch because it can help him ignore Exhaust, help position himself better, etc.

I think he's going to be fine. Riot does a pretty job at champion rebalances. They're new champion releases can be kind of hit-or-miss but rebalances have been a lot better.

eh... i still feel that the buff to ez is gonna be used so that when people are pissed at them for his obvious underpoweredness, they can say he was buffed and they're just full of QQ. but really, i dont have much evidence for that, other than what they've done in the past.

If you guys want/need Tier 3 Arm.Pen/Mag. Pen/Movement Speed/+HP Quints, there's the special Tier 3 X-Mas Quints in the store now. They're only a smidgen less powerful than the originals (some are exactly the same) but they cost noticably less IP.
