I've done some math on the nerf to insanity potions tenacity. Alone without merc treads it is 20% this means that a stun only applies it's 80% duration and a 1s stun becomes 0.8s 2s becomes 1.6s and a 3s stun becomes 2.4s.

With how tenacity is calculated on your highest amount and bonus from abilities or items is multiplied on top. Singed's tenacity becomes 35 + 20% = 42 total tenacity, this means that stuns applied to singed have a 42% reduced effect, this means that 1s stun will only be applied for 0.58s 2s becomes 1.16 and 3s becomes 1.74s roughly half the duration of the original stun.

When you compare this with pre nerf singed at 35 tenacity from merc treads plus 30 from ult the result is: 35+30% = 45.5 tenacity. At this amount a 1s stun becomes 0.545s a 2s becomes 1.09s and a 3s becomes 1.635s again roughly a 50% stun reduction.

Now when we put this into practice...

Drum roll......

At a 3s stun the nerf increases the potential stun duration by a whopping 0.105s....

However since this game is not hon a single stun is only at max 2.5s from veigar's event horizon so at most you will encounter are less*. So the difference since the nerf is only... 1.3625 pre nerf. 1.45 post nerf. So in the case of a 2.5s stun you will 0.0875 difference of stun duration.

Conclusion not even what I'll call a minor nerf.


 * you don't see many veigar players anyway
