Posted 1/3/2013 3:59:37 PMSurely you're joking about the Hecarim. He has so much CC and his W in teamfights makes him practically invincible and once you get your Iceborn Gauntlet, they can't afford to ignore you.

Posted 1/3/2013 12:33:14 PMReally wish they would stop working on new champions for like a month, and do some real work on the older champions. No one has any reason to play Annie, Brand, Fiora, Hecarim, Heimer, Karma, Nasus, Nautilus, Poppy, Rammus, Sejuani, Shyvana, Sion, Trynd, Udyr, Volibear, Viktor, Warwick, Wukong, Xerath, or Ziggs. All of those champions are HORRIBLY outclassed... And it's getting embarassing.

Posted 1/3/2013 4:01:29 PMHowever, they ARE working on a Karma and a Heimer rework, and there are rumours they're giving Viktor a 3rd tier upgrade on his rod thingy. Other champions simply have their strengths and are dependent upon certain game conditions, which makes them decent counter picks.
That being said, Sejuani is just kinda bad.

Posted 1/3/2013 4:23:23 PMFYI Rammus and Hecarim are ridiculous. Rammus is strong against AD heavy comps (which are popular at the moment) and has pretty good jungle.

Posted 1/3/2013 4:34:48 PMFYI the problem with Rammus atm is his early game, no one is questioning his power in teamfights once he's fed with items. Hecarim, to a lesser extent, suffers the very same problem.
Rammus already got buffed a bit in S3 preseason to help his clear times, he just needs some additional tweaks.

Conan: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.

Who on the earth will ever step on a teemo shroom in their life again after they got that itemits not like shaco dominate on dominion

Posted 1/3/2013 2:28:42 PMThink of the bright side. Now Teemo can cry with Malzahar about being countered by an item.

Posted 1/3/2013 2:43:00 PMNot necessarily. IT may hurt him if he shrooms out of bush but kind of like how nidalee and Caitlyn put their traps at the entrance of bushes so people can't see them before they step on them. This is more like a way of controlling teemo's ability to pretty much shrooming the hell out of a map so that no one can walk anywhere with out helping but stepping on a shroom. Besides it's not like Lightbringer is a must have on every champion you're probably going to see many games where even though the enemy team has a teemo no body builds a Lightbringer anyway :/

Posted 1/3/2013 6:46:40 AMI'd say they need to do this with a lot of older characters. Giving them defensive boosts would really help them with all the penetration changes. That is If they did not benefit from the changes.

Posted 1/3/2013 4:40:52 AMI see many commenting on Teemo, but have you seen that AAS buff? it charges 50% faster than ToG now!
Also why in the bloody hell would they nerf Captain boots, the most expensive ones known to Runeterra, on one of their least used stats?
