Jungle camps already do count for more than 1 cs, it's just that it doesn't translate properly into getting the correct stacks of Overgrowth because camps count as 1 unit while their worth is equal to X cs. OP is asking for the overgrowth stacks received from clearing camps to be equal to that as their cs worth, not as the # of units the camp/buff is.

And, would that be abusable? actually, funny enough, jungle camps already *do* count for more than 1 minion. Now I don't know the exact metrics, but if you clear blue buff your cs count will already be more than 1. The problem is, it doesn't not translate correctly for overgrowth, because blue buff counts as 1 unit before it counts as X cs so you only get 1 stack of overgrowth, nonequivalent to the actual worth of the buff in terms of CS. A lot of the strong tanks like Rammus, Nunu, and Sej would probably need their hp growth stat nerfed slightly to compensate but I doubt it would break the game.

Those who find offense in things that are not meant to be offensive is the problem. Anything ending with the letters "coon" is now grounds to be punished for (under your argument) simply because people immediately jump to racism over anything else, and the fact that you put the blame on the free-going individual instead of those who are making accusations of racism is appalling. Words only have the power you give them. The only reason one should be offended over something is if it's being used in a negative context, aka namecalling and insults. If someone gets offended by "icecoon" or "racoon", 100% perfectly reasonable innocent names, then that's on them.

Upgrading to {{item:3194}} with a {{item:3065}} already owned is even worse btw. You go from +260% regen to +130.

You go from +260% regen to +130. I get what you're saying, but I don't think it's necessarily bad for the item to be niche against specific types of champs. Tanks can always look towards {{item:3193}} or other items instead. If you're not against a dps mage like {{champion:268}} or {{champion:69}} it's almost always better to be stacking health (that synergies with both resistances) after {{item:3065}} + {{item:3111}} anyways, as it's a natural mitigation to burst damage.

When the honor system initially came out, they said they planned on expanding it to honor enemies at a later date. Their excuse was they wanted to keep the system as simple as possible for release. It's now been a full season since then and they haven't talked about it since, and that irks me because it seem's like a pretty standard thing an honor system should have.

Why was he permanently banned during the Trinity Force/Frozen Mallet meta? Or when he would build Blade? Or is he SO overpowered that one could justify banning him if he ran 5 tears? I mean he was busted during the TriForce/Frozen Mallet meta too. He was a mobile champion with enough kit buffs and base damages to abuse the item combination that provided way too much damage yet tankiness to those that could use it. So I really need to explain that further? As for why he's banned even when he's not good? That's simple. He's annoying. When people play against him, they feel like they're just watching a player play against them self. Even if he's not good, that doesn't mean he's fun to play against. You're only looking at it from a power/statistics standpoint while forgetting that this is also a game with actual people playing, people that have preferences and feelings. They simply don't *like* playing against someone who usually has something in their kit to deal with most situations. If you're melee, he can usually go even and has an auto reset, as well has pen/damage buffs. If you're ranged, he has windwall. Mobile/Immobile? He has his E. Under tower? His ult doesn't care. stuff like that may not necessarily break him, but his kit as a whole isn't fun to play against for a lot of players.

How is that busted? you. can't. look. at. just. winrate. You have a supposedly high skill-floor champion rocking a [51-52% ](https://na.op.gg/champion/yasuo/statistics/mid) winrate with a *9% play rate*. That is quite absurd numbers for a champion that's supposed to be difficult to play. For context, his winrate went up by an entire 3% between last patch and this patch. Even if he's not "busted", he is most certainly stronger than he should be allowed to be this patch.

Sorry, but doesn't this change his level 1?

Just because they are preparing for shit to happen doesn't mean they expect for shit to happen. It just shows they've learned from Clash and don't wanna fuck up unprepared. Murphy's Law if you will. But anyways, them preparing for a big change is no reason to critique them. I'd rather them be ready to revert it if needed than them *not* be ready to if it is needed

He is diamond in *flex queue*, he's just another plat 4 in solo queue. There's a big difference between flex and solo queue

Do you not see him jump *into/through* the bush and then over the wall from there?

trying to make a lore-based argument to excuse an outlier op champion is incredibly, ridiculously, absolutely stupid... Would you be ok with increasing A-Sol's Q size to be the entire map and instant-cast (aka undodgeable instant 5-man stuns) just because he can in his lore? Should Malphite be able to kill any human champion by just stepping within 5 units of it? hell no...

That's far from being bad, in fact he's quite strong at the moment. I can understand his E feeling weak but surely he's got to have power somewhere because players of all levels are performing well with him. If you rely solely on winrate to tell you what makes something good or bad then you're relying on a number based on a population that don't know what they're doing in the first place. That doesn't mean Shaco is good. Because if he was he'd be played competitively. That just means everyone is bad and allows Shaco to win due to that.

That doesn't mean Shaco is good. Because if he was he'd be played competitively. That just means everyone is bad and allows Shaco to win due to that. This is incredibly wrong in every way. 1. They cited more then winrate. They cited winrate, playrate, and curves/changes through elos. You can accurately determine the strength of a champion based on those observations. 2. "A population that doesn't know what they're doing in the first place" ...like what? Diamond players don't know what they're doing? And even though Ru didn't mention it, there are *several* diamond-challenger shaco mains out there...did they just get up there because no one knows what they're doing? 3. The idea that if a champion is strong in solo queue then they're automatically going to be played competitively has been proven wrong over and over and over throughout the years. The reverse is true too. I thought it was pretty basic knowledge that competitive league of legends is *vastly* different then solo queue, it's why Galio (when he had a ~47% wr and awful pick rate at all elos) was pick/ban for a time for professional players. It's why Azir and Kalista had to be dumpstered. There is no statistical, mathmatical, or any other respectable reason someone can claim shaco is bad. Anecdotal evidence maybe, but that's it.
