[Ozzu]

That formatting is all sorts of jacked up, but it's readable I guess. 

[schild]

No new map, the two expected heroes and Teemo & Kass remain untouched. That's nice. Sion's shield took a hit. Twitch wasn't touched.

Gangplank
Parley
Reduced Damage from 40/80/120/160/200 to 30/60/90/120/150

Reduced base damage. Increased AP scaling. I said wat. Tier 4 and 5 took a pretty big hit though. We'll see how this plays out.

Ignite Range increase = Love.

Malady
Reduced Combine Cost from 750 to 600

Nice!

On another note. I'm all over Shaco. He's like a mix of all the best stuff between Teemo and Katarina. >_>

[Hoax]

New broken hero buff...  Soraka, if I'm reading that right, she was already really good in the right hands on the right team.  That heal is a pain in the ass.

Can't believe Twitch keeps his range.  Gangplank change is confusing, not sure what it means.  They did also nerf crit runes in general I think.  Not sure if that means crit damage or crit chance, I assume damage.  They made AP books a tiny tiny bit better (marks added what before .1 or something?)

Cryophoenix got a range buff.  I know Iczer was upset about that short range.

Blitz untouched for once, no change to ult.

Fiddle crowstorm got screwed with, not sure that was needed more damage at 3 but less at 1 when it was most scary and useful.

Small but could be important tweaks to Yi, Trynd and Cho.  I'm sort of shocked by the Yi tweaks, I guess he's paying for being so crazy for destroying towers?  No change to Teemo or Ashe not that I expected them.  It seems like Teemo and Ashe are sort of the gold standard of a high end character.  Nobody should be better then those 2 and they are trying to get everyone else to be as good or as close as possible to as good.  If any champ becomes markedly better they get beat with the nerf stick.

Theorycrafting wise it seems like Soraka might be FOTM + obviously a stealth Teemo will be rediculous for pub stomping, not sure how good he'll be versus good players.  Can't tell about the other character or what Gangplank and Mundo will end up like after this patch, let alone Nasus who I didn't bother to try to understand since he's kind of retarded and annoying.  Also while they did add some new crit/second attacks and redid Kayle's really loud spell sounds they didn't revamp Blitzcrank or Nasus which sucks.  Katarina?  Now wearing less clothes I'm guessing?

[MrHat]

New Chars sound awesome.

Can't wait to try the turret whore.  Tower killing monster.

[bhodi]

Sion's shield took a hit.

Nope, that was one of the changes that was hotfixed in. There's no change.

[schild]

You didn't post the most important part!

Here’s what this update will bring to you:

Rune Choice: Instead of getting random runes from a grab-bag, you will be able to choose the runes that make the most sense for your style of play in the store. You’ll be able to make trade-offs on the type and power of runes you want.

Influence Points have meaning: Players will be less likely to leave games now that there is a use for Influence Points. You will get the most Influence Points for winning a game, the second most for losing and a game, and you won’t get Influence Points for leaving a game. These changes allow us to punish people who leave the game early more effectively. We can also rollout rewards to people who help build our community and make playing League of Legends fun for everyone. In the future, we will be making additions to this system to reward players who contribute positively to the League of Legends community.

True Summoner Progression: We’re finally allowing you to build up your Summoner the way it is supposed to be leveled. Instead of getting random runes and leveling up all the time, you’ll be custom tailoring your character and advancing the way we’ve always intended.

[Hoax]

I've got a bad feeling about that.  I hope it only takes 50 wins to get to max level and have full mastery points, enough IP to buy any 1 champ and get 3 full rune sets.  Any slower and it'll be annoying.  Since I'm going to be playing at release I don't really care but once everyone else is at max level this will reduce the influx of new blood for sure.

[Ozzu]

Not a big fan of Shaco at this point. He seems like an offense-based character without much killing power.

I dig Heimer. He isn't going to kill people much, but he can defend a lane and help your team push and hold areas really well. It's pretty disheartening when someone wipes out all your fully upgraded turrets though. That's a lot of work and time! 

[Krushchev]

Not a big fan of Shaco at this point. He seems like an offense-based character without much killing power.

U srsly?

[Slayerik]

Shaco is nasty. Killer and an escaper.

Hymendinger sucks. I really hate games with him on either side. Turrets are lame.

[bhodi]

Hoax:

Ok, so I figured out what was going on with this. We didn't wipe player's ELOs, but since everyone's stats were wiped that means everyone is viewed by matchmaking as having 0 games. We have a component of our matchmaking system that allows ELO to move more heavily when you have 0 games played to try and seed you in the proper bracket faster, which is why you're getting inconsistent difficulties from one game to the next. Play a few more games and things should balance out.

[Hoax]

I'm done dude, wake me up when they fix this patch, every time I played it was more frustrating then the game before.  Also Heimerdinger ruins the flow of games and generally pisses me off.  Might as well wait and patch and see what he looks like after they've made a legit attempt at balancing him b4 I try to learn counters.

[schild]

b4

Hoax? You there buddy? What the hell is that?

[Hoax]

I'm not really sure, I literally woke up 6 minutes ago, give me a break.  Also just thinking about LoL makes me really angry right now.  Kind of like writing text msg's with my non qwerty phone does, I think I just wanted to get the post over with or something.

[bhodi]

Oh, you missed the latest retarded heimerdinger shit.

You build a turret base in the woods and then lob grenades over the forest into their towers. There isn't a thing they can do to stop you.

Fuck that character, seriously.

[Slayerik]

I'm going to learn Corki just to rocket spam his fuckin turrets all game.
