Context & Notes
1) ricklessabandon on Lissandra changes in today's PBE:
[1] "going to pull the current lissandra changes from the pbe - no change in 7.7 going to do some explorations to see about a new passive in 7.8"
[2] "if we can get to something we think is a good fit and a solid improvement then we'll go with that if not, we'll fallback to the simple list"
[3] "i'll be putting an exploration up on the pbe tomorrow. will be experimental and still in a rough/early stage as we try to validate preview:"
[4] "there are also some changes to her spell costs and base stats in light of the new passive -- those will also be on the pbe"
2) From Meddler's quick gameplay thoughts for 3/23, discussion on PBE Jinx, Lux, and Graves changes:
Some context on balance changes on PBE
- Jinx - we're exploring the concept of spell that can crit, but telegraphs that behavior heavily, with Jinx's W. Concept shows some promise, current numbers are certainly wrong though. Unlikely we'll ship any form of that change in 7.7, though it'll probably remain for a bit longer at least to get further testing.
- Lux - Lux still does pretty well in low Elo's, we see her struggle a fair bit in higher divisions however. We're looking to add a bit of power that's mastery based as a result, provide more power when used well, less that's pubstompy. Not sure yet if the ult partial refund on kill's the way we'll do that yet, though excitement from players using it has been high relative to the amount of power it actually offers.
- Graves - We're considering two different approaches for Graves. The first, which from memory is still on PBE, is removing the MR from True Grit, making him more vulnerable to some team comps (those with an enemy jungler with significant magic damage especially). The second is a reduction to Q damage early game (less base, more ratio mainly) looking at making his early game dueling in general weaker.
