Context & Notes

1) Riot Scruffy provided changelists for 10.18 balance headed to the PBE this cycle:
"10.18 Patch Preview with changes:  
-Guardian nerf added, this was overly dominant on pretty much every support
-With Sett longer term we want to shift power away from tank into more AD builds. This should help him not to be as flexible in pro while being ok in soloq"

Captain Gameplay added more details on Sett:
"math is still off on a couple things here 
(ie: on Q: 10 (2% per 100 tAD(%)) = 10 + 0% HP ---its still tAD on that, so your level 1 is around 1.4% at 2% per 100 tAD 
and 
you aren't accounting for runes AD) 
Also i'm changing the Q tweak to 
Damage :: 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 (+ 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5%) (+1% per 100 tAD) >>> 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 (1% +1 / 1.5 / 2 / 2.5 / 3% per 100 tAD) 
Localization is already locked and the tooltip explicitly calls out the base value % hp, so it needs to exist 
In general this list is still a nerf because we are cautious for worlds. It definitely is aimed at tank builds (esp jungle or sup), but even botrk/triforce builds are gonna suffer a bit from lower early values. I'm expecting to follow up after worlds patch with more adjustments/buffs"
As well as Twitch:
"correction on twitch, the live mechanic is -20% of the previous hit (so 100%, 80%, 64% etc). In light of that, the buff has been changed to -10% total (so 100%, 90%, 80% etc)"
