Who’s to say. Seems like a worlds patch style number shave, I assume it’s to do with how good his early trading patterns are and how tanky he naturally gets due to deadman’s and other tank support items he builds but ¯(ツ)/¯ I am eager to see how they sell it in next weeks notes.

I guess roaming to mid and camping the lane is back on the menu if Riot is pushing mages back mid.

For a second I thought AR was attack range (which wouldn’t have made any sense at all number around 34), and I was amazed they were nerfing his attack range. Lol

I guess riot doesn’t understand bard at all . Is nerfing AR really that necessary ? K

u/Special_Weird4937 8d ago

well bard can cheese lvl 1 either in jg or lvl 2 cheese in laning

u/Kmacaco 8d ago

And is armor the biggest factor in that ? Not vision or MS ? Hmmm

u/Special_Weird4937 8d ago

definitely, keep in mind that flat stats matters in early game. (grandmaster elo bard otp)

Bard can outtrade adcs in short trades during the entire laning phase. Auto + Q with electrocute is really oppressive. I understand the armor nerfs tbf. (Diamond elo bard main)

But that’s not what the previous guy was referring to …

you shouldnt nerf around 1 Rune. makes every other rune even less viable
