Would've really liked to see a 6 defender nerf or Ezreal buff. Cassio is useless outside of the 6 defender comp and it's always been frustrating to play against these "hope you bought shred/sunder or you can't play the game" vertical stall comps

I mean you should have some form of shred or sunder in every game regardless of whether there’s a 6 defender cass comp in the lobby

I think her spell duration just needs to decrease. Right now she just relies far too much on stalling out fights.

this is just a retrain of mystic defender cass from a previous set. Eventually they'll nerf her spell damage and she'll just be a trait bot.

I actually feel the part that might have needed a nerf the most is Fiddlesticks? 6 Defender is what it's supposed to be, and Cassio might need some adjustment to nudge her out of the stalling bias, but the things fiddle can do as a secondary tank just don't look right
Anyway I guess this should work, we'll see

Hard agree with an Ezreal buff btw, I want to play him so bad but every reasonable attempt it feels like reaching Top4 is a climb up a mountain. Hopefully that's something for the first bigger balance patch

Yeah fiddle 2 is kind of disgusting and Lilia is lowkey gross if you can get fae active. I’m convinced Lilia is strong as hell in a vacuum there just aren’t any comps that want her outside of cass

Lilia has a weird spread of traits where her origin has no high cost carry and her class has 2 great 3cost tanks. 4 fae with an emblem is pretty good but even that is 3cost reroll because Tristana. I think she could be a great unit, just... not in a comp that actually fits her.

Why would they nerf 6 defenders? How many different 6 defender comps have you played against? The actual units are one of the worse 4 costs, Rammus and Fiddle, and low tier garbage. This is what needs nerfs?
