LoL gamers agree Riot desperately must hotfix one damaged merchandise

League of Legends Patch 13.10 rolled out on Might 16, bringing main merchandise reworks to Summoner’s Rift and Howling Abyss. Whereas AD carries are busy pairing the brand new Stormrazor with absolutely anything, League gamers are begging Riot Video games to hotfix one other merchandise.

On Might 21, the community discussed Durability Patch and the way it feels proper now that we’re again to a one-shot meta, as Zeds and Rengars run wild on Summoner’s Rift deleting all squishies standing between them and the Nexus. However, the issue isn’t the champions themselves, however truly Youmuu’s Ghostblade. 

“Sure objects and champs are at present a difficulty. Youmuu’s is the most important offender proper now and is in clear hotfix territory,” one League participant famous.

Beginning with League Patch 13.10, Youmuu’s Ghostblade is a Mythic merchandise that prices 3,100 gold and offers 60 Assault Harm, 20 Capability Haste, 25 bonus Motion Pace, 18 Lethality, and a further eight to twenty Lethality once you absolutely stack its passive, Spectral Shards. 

“I’m personally shocked that as much as 38 Lethality on one merchandise… is game-breakingly robust,” commented one other League participant as the remainder of the group implored Riot to contemplate nerfing this damaged merchandise.

As a direct results of the brand new and improved model of Youmuu’s Ghostblade, Zed’s, Qiyana’s, Hecarim’s, and Rengar’s win charge elevated by not less than 0.5 p.c in Patch 13.10 with out receiving any straight buffs. Usually, after an merchandise rework, you wish to see champions constructing it extra usually, however you don’t prefer to see such an abrupt enhance in win charge. 

Whereas 38 Lethality is powerful, the true cause this merchandise is damaged, based on gamers, is the bonus Motion Pace on lively and 40 bonus pace from its passive, permitting you to meet up with any AD carry or mage desperately making an attempt to flee your claws.

Thus far, solely Yasuo, Yone, and Kindred have received hotfixes and it’s doable we see a hotfix nerf to Youmuu. The actual problem right here is to nerf the merchandise whereas nonetheless making an attempt to maintain it related and rewarding for assassins.

If Riot decides in opposition to a hotfix, we might see modifications in Patch 13.11, however that’s nonetheless every week away. For now, you’ll should bear with Hecarims and Rengars and purchase defensive objects to hopefully survive the burst.
