I would like to go back 2(3?) mayhem patches
As always I give a fair try to any major changes in the game and let them have a chance to patch any major problems as... Well that's just the way riot works. Their first patch always has problems.
It's been a while and I can confidently say I want augment sets back. Void rift was screwed up and needed a rebalance but it was fun. Was fun to try to deal with it. Cupcakes were fun. Gambling on high roller was fun. Giga snowball was fun.
Hitting 20 skillshots for AH is not very fun. Ability heals you is not fun. Reset on cast can lead to potential but isn't remarkable.
Squishy grab isn't bad it's just not very exciting. Poro roller is bad it doesn't feel like it should be a prismatic. Same with tibbers. Shark snowball and death shark feel underwhelming compared to their predecessors. Feel like I'm playing with twigs when I roll these and someone else rolls a high key meta aug and beats me with a spiked club. They SOUND fun. They just kinda suck. There's counterplay and the damage/effect is underwhelming. I feel like for a gold it should have been one or the other.
Dimension shift is excellent. It changes the dynamic of the game entirely and is easy to go into either team's favor. As mayhem ensues. As it should.
Spell split is nice but also not as exciting as alot of people imagined it would be. It and echo cast is amazing on some abilities but not as many as you'd think.
I dunno. Am I just burned out on mayhem and the excitement of gambling was staving that off? I know alot of people were complaining about that initial patch, have your feelings changed? Or did you abandon mayhem for league classic already?
