Aah yes, the "log-in session not available" issue... where there is no issue at all. It's as if wikia skimped on how to take care of hijacked accounts by assuming "anyone who is moves to other pages over a long period of time are guilty." I've become accustomed to copy-pasta-ing the text I write, especially one that is long, onto a txt doc (because I usually type out replies in source mode), refresh the page in all kinds of ways, or turn off the browser if necessary. Then, I paste it back into the reply, and it posts without a problem. Very cumbersome.

Thus, if you sound upset, no offense taken.


 * Well surely, the new Valkyrie is much better off. Before, it was already used mostly as an escape tool, so as mentioned before, making it an actual disengage tool is welcomed. And you are right that the new mechanic wouldn't work for Special Delivery.
 * To keep the coptor-pilot skill-expressive... I don't know if it does telegraph enough information, but I am appeased with your explanation.


 * I should probably read the Baron's blog then.
 * Darius surely isn't fat and ugly, and is just pleasantly... over-toned with lots of muscle mass. The ugly butcher theme did feel wasted on Noxus though, and green gases do suit  (that green background on his current splash...).
 * My concerns did go to non-SR maps. But now that you clarify that the sweep of gas is through the center of the lane and can be dodged at the least, I don't feel as bothered as I was before. It would just suck if the ult was so reliable on maps such as ARAM
 * So you wanted to go for a corrupting theme... I don't know... Varus has never given me the feeling that he is losing himself to the Darkin bow...
 * I dropped the "gain for each stack consumed" so that his climb wouldn't be that immediate to 2.0. I too like the idea, but with such a slow and passive progression, it won't be appreciated, even when it reaches the higher end of AS. As you may know, a strong temporal effect is much more appreciated than one that is climbs sluggishly over time.
 * I was only curious, Lord Emptylord. But yes, I see what you are trying. I just commented on a CC where was applied just for the mechanic, not the theme (where the resource is ninja & blind monk exclusive).
 * I do appreciate that the price does not scale up, as it did feel like a consequence of indefinite-mana-consuming-attack, one that felt kit-enforced than skill-enforced. But there is mana refund on Q? That's news to me, my friend. I still think a little mana refund would help the gho-, the death singer on his journey of death.
 * Syndra is one of those champions who for me... just doesn't click. So I can't say further than the "why?" I exclaimed before. She's lacking, and surely needs a review of her kit. I can't be judge if your attempt is alright or not.
 * My questions in regards to AS and on-hits was to address things that are not stated, and could lead to the champion being alright or being used for an unintended class. I did not mean to ask for such scalings, but a clarification felt like it was in need of order.
 * It's fitting for the staff, not the Inventor himself.
 * To me, the storm is iconic. I don't play these champions as often as I do Fighters/Tanks, so just take my words as very personal opinions here and there when I speak of iconic or themes. A large death laser does have more immediate impact than the mechanical duststorm...
 * Yorick casted it pre-death, so allies revived had at least a moment or more to know if they would be able to exact their revenge. I just imagine myself shopping the shop after death, and suddenly, Kalista calls for me to be her meatshield... it surely would be one of those "better used in organized play" abilities.
 * I see. Didn't want a crit reliant Marksman. He can still get it, but he has other options that can be just as powerful.
 * As you say though, it may need revisiting.
 * No need to apologize. I was simply left in the dust as to what you had meant. If you are playing to theme, this change is not a "theme change" but an "adjustment to new theme."

Will address the four others later.
