@RiotPhroxzon and by Mythic system I mean, too much choice, no real (mana) item that speaks to Swain's fantasy. If any item, it would be RoA. Durability+AP
@RiotPhroxzon What I get from this as Swain OTP:
-Shallow mastery curve on mages bot = confirms my low elo skew design hypothesis, even on a role that presents high WR in high elo
-RoA/Ludens/CDR system preS11 was better for scaling mages than current mythic system, esp for Swain
@RiotPhroxzon Still waiting on a Swain rework / CGU / Revert The Rylais agenda from 12.8 mid scope onwards pushed him in a kiting space his kit doesn't feel natural in. Either revert to a strong R2 or lower his optimal range somehow, Swain is not a Viktor or a Cassiopeia, he wants to all in.
@oderiviere@APlagueTale One of my favourite composers, one of my favourite game series, new story, new journey, new music, judging from the lyrics, taking place in my country?! A PT: Resonance went flying under my radar for too long. I can't wait for it! The music sounds awesome!

@feniu2137 @RuneForgeio Like he's any different now lol, they introduced a long range AoE which no one asked and a hook which also no one asked for
Who wanted this champion gone? He implemented the battlemage juggermage hybrid way better than current Swain
@JustLikeBaandi@RiotPhroxzon I've heard he's an actual champion before every mini rework.
Issues persist. Right now they've made him a juggernaut kit but with mage itemisation? Just for the sake of support role...
@RiotPhroxzon Can't wait for next season to be about demons, and Phroxzon saying we'll take a look at problematic champions, so that Swain never gets mentioned, not his lore nor his elo skewed problematic design!
@sakiskarpas Νομίζω κάποιος στο προηγούμενο FrameRate το ε��χε πει, ότι θα μείνουμε σε αυτή τη γενιά παραπάνω από ό,τι νομίζουμε. Νιώθω ότι τα επόμενα χρόνια η ανάπτυξη βρίσκεται στο optimisation και όχι στο hardware.
@RiotPhroxzon Swain either needs his effective range (and thus itemisation) lowered/changed or bring his strong R back.
It's the best TL;DR of how I see Swain's deep design flaws fixed.
