    Man I remember in season 2 a Nautilus player had to leave the game and we were already losing the game. So the Nautilus bought all the wards he could get by selling the items he already bought and just warded the entire jungle(even the enemy's). He wished us good luck and left but after that the game was 4v5 but we ended up winning because Good Guy Nautilus gave us the strategic advantage of lighting up the entire jungle for us to see.
    Ahhh good times.

      Yeah, Chris, but then you have fucking Poppy who lives under tower for the first 20 minutes, and it's not until she builds Sunfire, boots, and Warmogs that she can out damage a fucking Mundo main. I know, because I've played Poppy quite a lot. She's so incredibly late game it's stupid. Like, why does she need a SECOND rework that involves giving her something that actually hurts? She uses a fucking HAMMER, she should be big dick damage by default. But I get it, she has utility. ...that's why the best role for her is jungler now even though 90% play her top lane, because her jungle clear is ridiculously slow too.
      It's just absurd how fast the meta has shifted with champs like Yasuo and gun bishi. If your champ isn't at least landing in the A tier of the meta expect to get stomped pretty frequently. It really shows when the last Challenger Poppy I saw ran jungle and went like 8/4, and the last Poppy in top I saw was a Diamond who did 9/3 by being a hard counter. The difference between a challenger and a Diamond was 1/1. A KOREAN Challenger I might add, and an NA Diamond, for all of your "Korean Bronze is NA Challenger" memes. It's stupid, dude. A lot of tanks out tank and out damage, while the ones that can out tank can't out tank other tanks because of their damage.

If there are others can't remember. But yeah, back in 2010/2011, Eve was my main. And this was back in the day when no one knew how to play Eve, and if you picked her your team would flame you saying you picked a trash champ. Then after I carry with 25/5/? they are like... Dayum.

      the problem isnt that this is the case, the problem is this is the ONLY interaction you can have with these champs: kite them = always win, dont = always lose. Theres no actual gameplay there, no real counter activity to engage in. It's clear cut win or lose dependent solely on ONE thing.

Yes the play itself is simpler than others but not every champ needs to be complicated. The kiting is part of the real gameplay. Having some simpler champions is good for new players and people learning new roles. If they're going to make such giant changes to a champ and completely rework them like Aatrox why not change it a little more and just make a new champ, add even more to the game without ruining it for the people that like the original champ.

    A thing that he didn't say about the "glory days" is that Shyvana, mundo and trundle were viable picks because they were the only ones that could survive against renekton.
    The top meta at the time was "can he fight renekton?" and for a very long time most champions had to answer "no".

      And basically for a long time it was JUST the Renekton/Shyvana/Mundo triad. IIRC it was only later in the season when a pro player (I think it was Soaz, correct if I'm wrong) introduced Trundle as a counter to the tank meta (since he would just ult the enemy team's tank and become unkillable himself) that other team's started to consider Trundle as a pick.

The glory days (specifically in this video) is mid season 3 to late season 4, and olaf while can be good at times definitely not up there with the big 4.

Max health damage on tanks and percentage true damage on auto attacks is still bullshit though.

    The sad thing is that stat sticks are inherently far healthier for the game as they force you to actually play the game properly. Go for objectives, engage at oppertune moments, make a sensible build, pay attention to where the opponent is, harras appropriatly, set up engagements etc. The current overloaded designs however, don't care. Who cares about engaging at an oppertune moment if you can just towerdive, get the kill & get out in the span of 0.5 seconds without getting hit by anything? Who cares about using a proper build when you can go full AD and rely on a on random overloaded defensive ability in your otherwise fully offensive kit, or something like steraks to give your class canon a weirdly large shield, and some lifesteal to survive close to everything? Who cares about carefully trading blows when you have 50 dashes and are can dash in and out of combat without a care in the world cuz your impossible to hit? Who cares about grouping up when you can accidently solo the entire team? Hell, who cares about playing safe and not feeding if you can rely on your 0/10/0 powerspike to eventually pull you out of it cuz your kit is so overloaded you're eventually going to get some kills on accident and snowball from there?

The game takes far too much commitment to understand even the kits, so how are we going to expand our champion pool?

    Stat check champions allow for casual players to express their skill through strategy rather than mechanics.
    I play usually 2 games per week. I don’t keep up with new champs, stopped reading patch notes a couple years ago, but still have a good understanding of rotations, when to fight, and objectives.
    Playing champs like yi mundo jax and voli allow me to have fun with the game. I don’t want the pressure of landing an Elise cocoon on a gank and then playing warding gank bot. I don’t want to have to land every ability when I’m out of practice.
    The reality is 75% of players are gold and under. We just want to have fun, and a stat stick allows us to win through the game knowledge we’ve built up.

    They may not be fun and engaging... But they are good for learning macro play, in my experience. If you're not so focused on pulling off your 150 different 'mechanics', you can focus on what's going on in the game. You can check bot, you can check mid. Look for ganks. Look to invade.
    If you don't need to worry about combos and all kinds of other nonsense, you can learn to work the macro, as 'mechanic'-heavy champs tend to reward good micro.

      MrJinglejanglejingle that’s the difference between simple and stat checks. Sett is fairly simple to learn and execute for example. Simple champs are going to be less versatile and swing harder with matchup strength (either really good or really bad). I think the line between simple and stat check is a difficult one, but you could argue the answer is to shut them down.
      This is where the design of league fails. No denies, no gold loss on death, no buyback to sink gold. Stat check champs are a ticking time bomb and yes you can kill them to take them off the board but that gold marches ever forward. Stat checks are only a problem because counters don’t exist (well Mundo can get healing cut). Like most issues with league it’s the core gameplay that ends up being the problem and the design philosophy backing it.

My instinct is to use my auto attacks to deal damage, and I feel extremely uncomfortable on most mages, or things like Riven. But when I pulled out old Aatrox (RIP) it was genuinely so insanely fun because of how well he complimented the ways that I play. I can say the same of pre-rework Volibear. I feel insanely comfortable on those champions because it's just what I like to do combined with a tanky booty that just won't quit. And Riot seems to want to remove the things I like from the game.

      ADC is probably the best understood form of stat sticks contributing something to the game. They are heroes with a very straight forward scaling, that adds to strategy and playing the game at a 5v5 level, rather than looking at the complexity of heroes in a vacuum 1v1.
      Still, stat sticks need to have their balance looked at carefully, and could all use at least one ability that's a skill shot or anything that benefits from good timing and decision making. Because of straight forward scaling, stat sticks can very easily become 100% irrelevant compared to other champs filling the same niche, and the meta becomes stale if there are few options for counterplay.

      If any 'class' has a right to be a stat stick it's the ADC because it's literally their job to close out games, and that's traded off by them being squishy.

    IMO riot don't want to just remove simple champs that don't need that much of a skill. And new champ Sett kinda proves this point. He's not that much of a stat stick but his kit is still rather simple and straightforward with no need to have 1kk apm in order to be useful in game. The problem with stat sticks is that they're rather difficult to balance for both high and low elo at the same time and that they're just borring to fight againts. As you said in the vid, its either you have enough stats to survive theit attack or you don't with little to no outplay potential. That's why I think that reworking such champions into what's closer to the new riot design philosophy is actually good idea, although I'd definitelly prefer if they kept 1 or 2 of them as they're now, just to have good old simple mundo game now and then.

    I think the extinction of the stat stick champions is why no matter how much I get tempted to reopen league and try to get back into it after pouring so much time and energy into this game for several years, I know that I probably shouldn't bother. These are the types of characters that I enjoyed and where i found success, and these were also the type of items I tended to love building. I was very attracted to the low risk nature of these champions and kits, and that a character who seemed a bit underwhelming and unheralded at first glance could secretly be an OP team saving behemoth if you put in the work to really look carefully into it's abilities and had a strong deep knowledge of the game to build optimally. I especially loved stat stick tanks and supports who were so effective at what they did behind the scenes that many times not even my own team could tell. I enjoyed the security of knowing that even as a player who is rather mechanically poor I could be an asset that helps my team win pretty much no matter what. I absolutely loved planting myself right on the ADC in the late game and watching him go to town thanks to my giant stacks of ally boosting auras and easy, fail proof CC. Even when he had no idea that *i* was the biggest reason why he was melting everyone's faces off. Or perhaps it was *especially* gratifying to me to think that he didn't know, and thought it was all just him being awesome at this game. I loved lighting up the entire jungle with wards while the enemy team had almost none and seeing all their attempts at an ambush collapse into disaster. Other players may have been more skilled then me, had better reflexes, made better snap decisions, and most likely could wipe the floor with me in pretty much any other online multiplayer game. But in this game, with nothing more then knowledge, careful positioning, the right attitude, and a team first mentality I could compete against them and be an asset to my team instead of an anchor and give us a shot to beat the stuffing out of them anyway. Every. Single. Game. Especially in a solo que environment where unselfish players were quite rare, it could really make you feel a bit special in a weird sort of way.
    When Taric was reworked I was actually pretty devestated and I couldn't quite put my finger on why until now. Taric may have been the perfect representation of what I liked best about this game and the type of champions I was drawn to. His new boom or bust ultimate was something I just couldn't get over, probably because it was riot stating it's intentions very loud and clear that they would not abide these simple, fail-proof, subtly OP designs anymore. I wouldn't get to sit in smug superiority at the idea that I'm the only one who understands how Trundle's ultimate works and why I'm winning every duel, or how useful my shatter is making things for our team's rapidly more fed ADC. Or how I was warding harder then the opposing support who got stuck with the role out of necessity instead of volunteering for it. Or enjoy the security of knowing it would be really really hard for me to, personally, screw up my champion's abilities and ruin my team's chances in a critical fight. I was honestly a scrub that found a way to be useful, and maybe even be the difference maker in a match. I admit it doesn't make for very good viewing for esports, and at the highest levels of the game, where everyone has the same insane level of mechanical ability it can be a bit lame to waste a player's talents on such a seemingly dull and ordinary champion like Taric or Dr. Mundo, which they really only pick because of how useful to a team they can be. But without these kinds of characters, a scrub can only be a scrub. I can't help but feel that's a bit of a shame, it was really neat that this was a game where there was more then one way to be successful. I miss league because when I do watch it I think it still looks really fun but I also can't help but feel it's a game that's passed me by and is no longer suited to the type of playstyle I want to have.

I quit out of frustration when I saw that every single new champ coming out was some sort of AD Nuke which somehow burst just as hard as veigar... and all my go-to champs shrunk from around 20 down to about 3.

      Yea I'm quite unhappy myself. I just came back to league after years of absence and found most of my favourite champions reworked. At first I was excited but after trying out Irelia, Akali, Fiora, Graves, Mordekaiser, Pantheon and Talon, I've found none of them feel even remotely the same. Some of the changes have been nice and needed, sure, but most of them feel like consistency and skill floor nerfs rather than anything else. Why does everything need to be turned into a skillshot? Where is the build variety? I remember Irelia used to be able to build attack speed exclusively first 15 minutes of the game and still hard carry with maxing the true damage blade skill. Or go Triforce, or tanky, or whatever the situation called for. And now that I've finally settled on playing nocturne jungle due to his straightforward kit, I find out they're reworking him too. God damn it Riot, not everyone playing your game has hours upon hours just to practice mechanics. If I get a 6 kill lead I wanna tear the enemy jungler apart. I don't want to have to "outplay" him. He is the one who is behind, right? It shouldn't fall upon me to demonstrate superior microplay when I've already demonstrated superior macro. I've even heard rumours of Yi getting a rework (think it was mentioned in the vid too). What's wrong with non-adc auto-attack based champions? If I'm fed I wanna scale too. I love playing Elise, but when I have a huge lead on her (let's say 10+ kills), it just means I get to one-shot an enemy faster, it doesn't mean I can 1v3 them. On Yi or Nocturne however, I might be able to, depending on who those enemies are. But those champions are apparently getting reworked soon. And so is Tryndamere and soon all the auto-attack melees will be gone because they don't need to land 3 skill shots and make all the spectators moist when somebody does it in a tournament.

    All I know is that these new champs are too overloaded and are unhealthy for the game. Alot of them have very high ban rates tbh its just adding more randomness to the game like with aphelios having different weapon combos and shit. They should go back to champions that had a certain play style unlike aphelios which feels like abit of everything being able to root, do aoe damage, and poke is really annoying and not what is want in the game. I think sett has one of the least loaded kit compared to the other new champs and feels better to play and to play against. Which is funny because sett is kinda a stat champ he has built in health regen and percent health damage but still has intresting mechanics. I hope more champs are like him in the future.

      People dont like to die vs stat check champs but whats even worse are overloaded champs that disrupt the normal pattern of the game. Yes a mundo who is lvl 16 with 4 items should be able to kill you, are you mad because he right clicked you and pressed q. Too bad. I am mad when akali walks into top lane and she auto wins every lane phase vs all bruisers and tanks and I cant use 80% of my kit because she can go stealth, dictate the trades with her mobility and when I do catch her she out trades me anyway. Are you mad Darius 1v2'd your top and jg, HEY! maybe the lanner should not have given him free 5 stack and the jg should not get hit by darius Q with his lanner. These are simple things you can counterplay yourself vs things like pyke who are unkillable starting fights and cleaning them up. Its overloaded kits that are banned in high elo not the stat check ones, they do well in low elo but the simple solution is to just learn the game and play better where these new champs coming out feel they are only fun for that player to use not play against.

    The Volibear rework makes me really sad. I remember being in school back in 2010/2011 when Volibear was about to come out and got his champion spotlight. That was my first encounter with League. I remember not being able to play the game at home because Windows Vista automatically blocked downloaded .exe files and you had to manually unblock them, which I didn't know how to do. I remember paying a dollar to play for an hour in the local arcade. I remember buying Garen and then refunding him later on so I could buy Volibear and have him as my only owned champion for a while. I remember playing ranked for the first time and instalocking Volibear on top. I never built Sunfire on him since I thought Randuin's was better. Warmogs and Atma's were my go-to second and third items. After a while I even bought a custom Runeguard Volibear calendar with my username on it. I still have it, to this day. It makes me extremely sad that they're taking away a part of my childhood because the champion isn't as useful /played as it used to be. This will be the fourth time this happened, since after Voli, the next couple of champs were the old Poppy, Sion and Taric. Those were the four champions that got me to Gold for the first time. The first one became the last one, and in a few months, he'll also be gone. This game is dying. Not because the players numbers are dwindling, but because it's becoming less and less fun to play. They've taken the fun out of the game with their desperate tries to control the meta. That's the problem with Riot, that's the problem with League of Legends.

      "Rework" is the wrong word, in my opinion.
      "Redesign" is more palatable to me. Volibear hasn't been changed so much he's not recognisable as Volibear anymore. He's just had some QoL adjustments to bring him to a level where he doesn't feel like a 2010 champion in a 2020 League of Legends. I've mained him since his rework and he's still obviously Volibear. You still play him more or less the same way as Old Voli. Yet he looks, feels and plays much nicer in the current state of the game.

    Mundo runs through the enemy base while being chased and gets a kill before rofling back home. I think there is a place for stat-sticks as, like you said, tools to help players learn the game. I've played since 2009 and I still enjoy picking Voli and Mundo because I don't need to focus on complicated stuff. I can enjoy the game for what it is: a game. Some of the new champs, especially this newest one, are flat out too much mechanically for me to be able to enjoy the experience. I'm too worried about hitting the wrong button or a button too early and ruining everything, where as I don't have nearly that level of stress built up when I play Mundo. Sure, if I lose the early game it can suck, but at the end of the match I still go where I please and throw freaking cleavers at people.

    Dude I remember build atmogs on Ashe in a lot of games because it was just so broken. I was actually a really early adopter, at that point I had never seen atmogs anywhere and just build it because I thought it would be good and I would die less. The damage was lackluster but I had winstreaks of up 10 games without deaths all of a sudden. With the old Ashe Q slowing up to 45% you could literally stand in the middle of the enemy team and slow down anyone that tried to leave the fight because they got low. It was for a long time my highest winrate Ashe build, way stronger than panthom dancer infinity edge. To be able to scale quicker you would max e build philosophers stone for the regen and gold per 10 and play mid lane, as this way you reach level 9 faster to get +5 gold per minion plus the passive gold from philosophers stone and just by last hitting well you could have atmogs plus zeal at 20 minutes, at which point you become useful.
    This worked so well because Ashe back then was the champion that could reach the 2 item atmog spike the fastest and most reliable. If ever Atma's Impaler is back in the game and Ashe gets her gold on the e again I would probably still build it even if I do not get the 3k hp needed for the new warmogs with the 2 items. :D

    4:35 "There is no real way to outplay a Mundo"
    There is also no way Mundo can outplay other champions.
    He either farmed well enough and made good basic decisions, which leads to him being able to kill you, or he didn't.
    I think that all these reworks and new champs are ruining the old ones. They aren't outdated, but many new champs don't belong in the game.
    Maybe Mundo is a bad example, but sometimes I feel like I can do nothing with certain old champs, when I am just a bit behind some enemy champ with an overloaded kit with a dash or two, cc, a projectile and stealth etc.
    Of course you get chased or kited or they just jump over the wall. What can you do?
    And while I've never played Yasuo, or most of those new champions, I don't feel like it can be really that hard to just spam your jump on the minionwave as yasuo or irelia, or windwall in any direction as yasuo, or hit your knockup as yasuo. I'm talking a lot about this cancer ninja, lol.
    I don't think it is fair that many champions have so much movement speed or so many jumps and dashes now. Champs with a lot of skillshots just get left in the dust, because they can't hit shit if the enemy is half decent and can dodge. I feel like dodging is a lot easier than hitting shots, because it can actually be done without using abilities by just sidestepping fast enough in many cases. Add in the ton of champions that have high mobility now, and you are completely fucked when playing a classic skillshot mage.
    But look at Master Yi for example. He can "outplay" other champs, in teamfights especially, by timing his q to dodge abilities, and timing his w to tank. He is a statstick himself, because melee adc's suck, and it takes one stun to kill him. Just like Tryndamere who gets mostly kited during his ult and then dies by many team compositions. I've played some arams with Yi, and it's not that hard to pull off. You just have to get lucky on the first kill for the reset, or safe your q for the first dodge and just follow up after a teammate gave you an opening with cc or by tanking or distracting the enemy at least. And boom you just penta the enemy team, because who can react when they are dead in 1 second, after you just teleported behind them with your q. Nothin' personell kid.

      These new champion kits are outplaying everyone not because the player is good but because like you said they have a dash that goes over a wall if the trade looks bad they have a stealth that turns off all your auto attacks. These are not well timed abilities they are just win trade now buttons that allow worse players to beat better ones based on kits. This is just further pushing a counter pick meta to the extreme where the macro of the game matters less and less until even a much lower ranked player on these newer champs can "out micro" you and win lane.
