Riot is very big on nerfing everything.

Was it split pushing they nerfed it for? My god, I hope they don't nerf summoner teleport then because it can do the exact same thing. Come late game, it's usually up anyway so if a minion wave happens to be at tower during a push up mid I can usually teleport over and take it at the same time.

TF was seen as if you overextend even a little bit he can just ult to that lane and your team will get them, discouraging lane pushing by the opponent. The same deal was regarding moving slow from red buff. Riot wants to encourage pushing. They didn't mention split pushing specifically but the idea of being able to split push until people come down to you then you ult to your team and fight the reduced number of opponents (since the others were going to the lane you were pushing).

Pantheon's revive + ult combo is pretty sick too if you do it right lol

Things get buffed things get nerfed, it is always going to happen. It's easier to see the negative, and people will always find some reason to be unhappy be it a nerf (global ult) or buff (annie, gp).

Short version for his reasoning is the ult nerfs for both champs needed to happen for TF's sake while the Pantheon buffs will come next patch. They have a certain time frame when changes are "locked" for patch (I think it was a month in advance?) so the buffs didn't make it before the lock.

I wouldn't hold my breath for next patch, lol. I mean, look at eve. She got destroyed a few patches ago and there is still no sign of the remake.

That is different, they gave no specific timeline for that.

Morello:

Sometimes, we have to make tough calls - for example; should we leave TF as overpowered in our tournament build, or roll the change out one patch before the Pantheon buffs were ready? Both options have downsides, and I stand by our choice to make the tournament more balanced.

Currently, it is slated for next patch. Sure, it can be delayed like Kayle's changes but it isn't like the stealth rework that has no specific date.

pantheon is doing okay, he could have better damage by a slight bit. he's fine when you are keeping up in cs and kills. tip: dont use heartseeker strike, except for getting a point in it for the passive. i literally just auto attack and spear shot people to death with stuns when its up.

**Falaras** · 2011-07-25 18:53

The best part about this global teleport nerf is that Tf will still be able to gank both lanes because he goes mid and the ult range can reach either lane from mid, but Panth who already has some trouble finding a lane to stay in won't be going mid making his ult significantly worse than TFs

**Meian** · 2011-07-25 18:59

When I looked at the circle, it seemed it had enough range from mid tower to reach just past dragon. It didn't seem able to reach near the two bushes on the lane... (which would otherwise be global range anyway nearly)

Volcanic Wukong and Darkforge Jarvan, want. Too bad I have Commando.

**Tyrath** · 2011-07-25 19:10

ffffffffffff double

**Qeomash** · 2011-07-25 20:02

I think the art for the Jarvan skin looks great, but the skin itself is downright hideous in those screenshots.

**Tyrath** · 2011-07-25 20:12

Yeah agreed. Renekton is the opposite.

Also, monkey king spotlight.........

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh god that is just rich. I don't know whp ripped who, but god damn there's going to be so much more animosity between LoL and HoN players now. With the whole "ur game ripped my game" arguments thrown at each other. This is beautiful.

I've decided that ranked matches are true horrors. I know that logically someone wins ranked matches because, well, I always lose and the enemy team wins. I'd really like to be on one of these mythical winning teams one day.

It's really hard to carry a team when you mostly play support and all your DPS run all over the place, engage 1v3-5, die, and then yell at you for not healing them.

Try jungling, it's the best way to carry yourself out of low elo.

Frahhhhh, looks like global ult doesn't get longer per level ;_;

oof Yorick, ouch :\ Will have to test sometime after I have fun with Kayle's sexy Righteous Fury change

**Tyrath** · 2011-07-25 22:27

That AP ratio change, that hurts.

Good thing I got a whole 1 game in with the buffed Yorick.

**Lebzile** · 2011-07-25 22:28

Phosphorus Bomb

No longer blinds
Damage reduced to 70/120/170/220/270 from 80/130/180/230/280

Lovely, they took away the ability to see invis units, now it no longer blinds. Now it's a shitty nuke with high mana cost.

Also, I find it funny they want to "nerf global ults" yet Karthus, Ashe, and Ezreal's range remains unchanged. Ashe and Ezreal, sure it's a global skillshot, but why not go ahead and give Karthus a 5500 range on his ult?

So glad I rarely even touch LoL anymore. Now to just wait for DotA2.

Is it sad the HoN Monkey King feels like a fucking Monkey King and the LoL MK just feels like a hero with a bunch of rehashed spells. I WANT THE FUCKING NIMBUS CLOUD.

Their goal wasn't aimed at all global ultimates, just the ones that give a team a really big advantage (the split pushers). TF can get a bit ridiculous at times, I don't think Panth needed the nerf but TF was a definite must.

**Dantrag** · 2011-07-25 23:28

Yeah, fucking HON did it right...

**Yousir** · 2011-07-26 04:28

New champions need to stop being 6300...
