Well, you can claim that Riot only nerfs according to the whims of high Elo... but then in the very same patch as this one, there's some heavy nerfs for Shaco, who hasn't seen decent tournament usage in ages.

I dunno. I reasoned that there might be some change to his ult's armor penetration values since Season 3 upped their effectiveness so much, but not outright removal outside of the active. Plus, his issues with scaling too well with health are really a problem of penetration working much too well. Warmog's is the defacto defensive item for just about everyone right now. I'd rather they nerfed that instead of Olaf/everyone else who scales well with health.

These aren't official patch notes, though, not even for the PBE, it's just the air client updates. At least part of it could be toned down before becomes official, though I highly doubt he'll completely escape the nerfs.
