This is what I can grasp from these nerfs/buffs in the recent PBE patch to hecarim. Firstly his early sustain has only been hurt more with the harsher cooldowns put in place on his 'W' and no changes to the minion Cap. I can only conclude from the slight buffs to his sustain for his 'W' early on and nerfs to his later sustain it has only made it less reliable, considering how unreliable it already was(because of the incredibly short duration/long cooldown) this has only killed/hurt where Hecarim shines the most: in teamfights. The small buff to his Q damage is negligible.

Not forgetting the nerf to the Spirit of the elder lizard, which i'm totally ok with but It will of course lead to Hecarim to be weaker. I am absolutely sure this falls into Riot's design philosophy when it comes to creating champions and how only a select few champions get to be viable.

Mmm, compare the nerfs to Xin and Hecarim/Vi. Hecarim got hit so fucking harddddd.
