As long as each champion requires a need of change, they will continue to be updated. This most especially applies to champions such as Izo and Sauna.
 * P: Glad that the nerfs placed did the job. Numbers are numbers, so as long as they embody an agreeable stat, I too am happy with what they offer.
 * Q: Thinking about Q, I've been thinking about how this applies damage, since thematically Bolverk is dealing the damage, not the sword. Wouldn't Bolverk be enhanced by AP? Should the physical damage scale off both AP and AD just like it used to? These are just thoughts that have come to mind and are not necessarily items that will lead to change.
 * W: I don't plan on ever making it an AoE because of that. Plus, I feel that this ability just hit enemies, not the ground below.
 * E: Did it ever have any issues for the while? |3
 * R: Izo is very much an AP champion with a minor potential with AAs, so seems like a viable item to add to his kit, possibly later if not the first.
 * I had thoughts of changing the max health to missing health. I had it maximum health due to how Frosted Edge used to deal damage based on missing health, but since that is gone... just want an opinion if I should change it or not.

Otherwise, I thank you very much for your continual following of Izo. Look forward to what more will be done to him.
