OK I can get that. Stun on stun immunity nodes was pretty weird...
But what about Drax who was one of the only champs who could counter Mordo's astral evade with his unique first double hit. How can you explain that? I ranked up my 5-star Drax for 2 reasons (and many player did so) : 1 : He's a big damage dealer. 2 : He can smash Mordo without worrying about parry. So what now?
This is why these changes in 18.1 are leaving such a bad stench.
I just did this in arenas and didn't have any problems. Parry-stunned Mordo four or five times then Medium attached him, no problem and no Degeneration.
Still, there could have been done minor animation changes leading to effects on your game and not mine. You should post that video as a bug in its own thread with phone/OS details - would be nice for it to be acknowledged as something that (1) hasn't been intentionally changed, and (2) isn't going to be changed.
Hang on, sorry - haven't auto-updated. Still playing 18.0.
I'm seeing more threads about this, too. My mistake. 😒
Mine turns on(I have it off)
That is direct wording from the spotlight. Now a NT does not count as a debuff. The NT will stun the opponent. It does NOT say that the NT will apply a stun debuff to the opponent, it states that the NT, which is NOT a debuff, will stun the target.
Look, this is all semantics and it can be read both ways easily, which is why I believe the game team should stick by their statement that it was working as intended. Change it back!
Go and look at it again, even after the update. The header for that entire section is listed as passive.
He’s still a beast. Wish I could upload the vid I just took. NC never evaded him. I did switch the stance, but before that, no evades either. Plus, I’m not that great (decent, but nothing special) and my 3* destroyed NC.
I went back and did another NC duel. I was wondering if Drax could just keep going without switching his stance and I got evaded and combod to oblivion. I haven’t tested with Mordo much.
Overall I still like the furies and bleeds with my Masteries. Perhaps not as niche anymore, but he’s not useless. Granted he’s not my top guy. I don’t have him as a 4 or a 5, so can understand that it’s a bummer for those he is/was their best champ.
You mean we might have been given bad information? Say it ain't so!
The fact is they made changes that significantly reduced Drax's useability seems to be getting ignored. While they are probably right and didn't directly make changes to Drax, the changes they made in mechanics seem to impact Drax the most so far.
All this is working as intended I'm sure, which it seems the intent was to reduce Drax's usefulness.
Mods "we have no intention of changing sw."
One month later 12.0. Is AA stun from neurotoxin a glitch?
Mods "it is working as intended and is not a glitch!".
One year later it's now become a glitch because it's saving us pots in lol. Blade is now not working as intended even though when you read his ability it says danger sense extends to villains. Nope mods say we are to ignorant to read and comprehend what is in writing on the champ. Getting really tired of seeing rank up bundles popping up just so people spend to have the champ nerfed. Why can't content be made more challenging without destroying the champs we love?
And yet I keep ranking up champs. If you can't make decisions without a perfect crystal ball of the future, then MMOs are not the best gaming option for you. All of these games promise the same thing: the game will change in ways players may not get advanced warning about, and game play decisions need to presume that anything could change at any time. You can argue any one particular change should or shouldn't happen, but you cannot argue that the game shouldn't change at all once you've decided to make a decision. That's an argument you cannot win, and honestly for the most part you won't find enough players to support that argument to make it winnable.
I'm unaware of anyone that does that normally. Huge advance warning tends to cause more problems than it solves on the rare instances it is done. The biggest problem you create is that every single change becomes a battle ground where players think they can simply demand that a change not happen if they are loud enough for long enough.
In a perfect world, if I was in charge my policy would be that anyone who ranked up a champion within thirty days of a significant change (which would have to be defined) would get a champion-specific rank down ticket for that champion only which would expire after a limited amount of time.
And then I would spend the next million years arguing with players over the fact that the thirty day window was the wrong amount of time, and how much brain damage was necessary to implement that window. Because even in a perfect world, there's no such thing as a perfect solution more than a minority of players will quietly accept.
