@HeartQueen Cursed Revolver untouched, Torvald untouched, Octavia [mostly] untouched, Infinite Rolls Cassie and Yagorath's ult not even mentioned.
Let's hope at least their Zhin nerf is gonna be smart and not their usual nerfs...
Cursed Revolver is balanced imo. They are going to touch the ammo card, which will be a start. Infinite Rolls Cassie isn't too bad. Though I actually brain stormed with a GM Cassie main on how to rework it. I told them that they would have to keep the mobility and get rid of the damage, but make it so it's worth picking over her damage boosting talents. So we thought of:
keep her cooldowns and the card
instead of bonus damage for each hit after roll, we would make it so that each hit after roll reduces all of her cooldowns (except her dodge roll because you have cards and stuff for that)
I like it because it keeps the mobility while getting rid of the bonus damage. Yagorath was just a bad champion that doesn't fit this game.
The Torvald thing makes me angry. They told us in late season 2 that they were going to rework Torvald. Then season 3 they simply said something about how they were going to change the item shop and see where Torvald lands there. Then people told them that it was the pockets and not the item shop, they said they would rework Torvald and nothing has been done. Now they're trying to say that WE don't want a rework because he's unattractive. This is stupid. Barik and Tyra are unattractive. Plus Torvald isn't unattractive, he's just an old man with a very boring and bad kit. If he had a fun kit and some decent skins, he'd have a higher play rate. Like bro, just make a younger version of Torvald that is shirtless, oh wait! Y'all fucking have that skin! But it's locked behind ranked! Also, they don't think anyone would play Torvald if he had a skin like this and a good point tank kit:
This is stupid and makes no sense. They're just lazy and don't want to rework him, even after they promised us a rework like two years ago. Like they talk about priority work, but what are they doing? We haven't had an event in two years, they cut features left and right, they haven't made a new map in 2 years about to be 3 years, etc. What are they talking about, they don't have time? They've had PLENTY of time. For fuck sake, they aren't even releasing Gold skins every patch, which literally takes maybe an hour per champion because you're just changing the colors of an already made skin. Like they've done barely anything and they talk about how they're so busy and it's not in their schedule. Like this is just disgusting and I've just lost the little respect I had for them after they said that.
