She's going to be better in lower elos where skirmishing happens often due to poor macro, the Q change is a significant buff to her early game since it allows players to push wave faster. The root cause of her weakness is still damage, but this change just reinforces her identity as a roaming / skirmish champ that plays for jungle
@@Zianni But they can't buff her damage easily with her insane, but inconsistent reset pop off potential. I've been playing around with the idea to remove her ult reset completely, but then buffing it's CD massively and giving it an old Lux R property of takedowns lowering it's CD further and moving some of that reset R damage from her ult to her regular abilities. This would make her less insane in the best case scenario, but make her more consistent and stronger without risking complete non-games from pop offs in the comp scene. Much better feeling mage gameplay and the option to make her stronger is well worth the R chains.
@@Zianni Nah, they'll make Zhonya's a lethality item and find a way to make Hoe Focus a bit worse again, or give up and make it completely a tank item.
I am actually winning fights now! It feels like I am not just itemizing for no reason, but also I am bronze so I can’t say much for anyone else. I did manage to go bronze 3 to 2 since the update dropped.

why u start corrupting and not d ring if u not opting inspiration sub tree with biscuits and twt and just going pure burst? d ring scales better too, right?
I went C Pot here for wave clear + sustain. The main benefit being I can just refill my potions and focus on hitting minions for wave manip. D Ring is great here for survivability + dueling. This is 100% doable w/ the jungle match up, so it was probably more ideal.
aight cheers. just finished watching the vid and q cd reduction seems really massive but can't tell dmg buff yet cos ur fed af. also, where would u rank ori as blind rn? btw binged like 15 of ur vids over last few days and ur commentary on these gameplay vids and item discussions are easily digestable and helpful bruv
@@undertagged4552 Just keep in mind 10% extra AP ratio is literally just 1/10th of your AP. So if you have 300 AP, you're getting an extra 30 damage. Whereas adding another Q into your combo from the Q CD reduction would be another 300-400 damage. (Full combo at level 13 w/ 2 items is about 1800 with ignite. 2.1K with a second Q.) I would say Ori blind is doable but she isn't ideal for Solo Q in lower ranks, she'd probably be a C as a blind pick. A+ otherwise. And thank you so much for watching my content + the kind words :3
I guess now I'll get the last S I need to get mastery 7 lol. I try flex rank with her to try plat there too, but idk it's so hard to play against tanks and bruisers, the only ban I have is irelia cause I hate this champion and I always have trouble playing against her.
@@jmatae If you plan on controlling mid through wave clear, it would be lost chapter. If you plan on perma roaming, u can do it with Lost Chapter but tier 2 boots = run around really fast
Ok I'm like bronze and I play Vex a lot, hit mastery 7 on her, I found her damage pretty decent already but I'm glad they buffed her Q cooldown 'cause I was tired of getting pinged somewhat "you don't do anything i'm dying" well bro I can't and risking my life to auto attack people isn't exactly a GOOD IDEA xD
Hey Zianni, do you think these buffs will make Vex actually playable again?

Depends what rank you are in! When played properly any champ is great, mostly! :D
praise the riot gods for vex buffs! 💗your vex videos are always fun to watch
praise be riot, but I still want more damage
@@Zianni instead of a rain dance i will do a buff dance so that riot will be compelled to fulfil your desire

Yay new video! ♥️ And it's Vex 😍
Thanks for watching :)
Your voice is so calming
Thank you :3
Did you play RuneScape growing up? Osrs? I noticed the classic RS music in most of your videos and enjoy it.
I absolutely love runescape. Thanks for watching and appreciating

BRRRR
What’s a TWT (12:29)?
Timewarp tonic from the inspiration tree, gives bonus MS during potions
@@Zianni I guess they heard you when you said that TWT was a very good rune, since they are now nerfing it apparently lol
LETSGOOOOOO i love ur vex..
Thanks :3
I honestly think this is a great buff, although it doesnt take touch on vex main problem, wich is her lack of damage.
Agreed!
"But maybe gwen is better" yes shes wonderful i love that

S is really just about farming since Vex players just perma walk around instead of farming haha

It's really cool too because you can get consistent fears off too if you're leading with gloom procs into another Q.
hello, how much lp you have?
600 LP rn
Do you think Leondry’s is the best mythic for her right now after these changes
Liandrys is a good item, but it doesn't synergize with her champ identity. Ludens is currently BiS (Best in Slot)

Burst mages are obviously unhealthy for the game unlike 3K HP bruiser assassins
@@Zianni To be fair, they both are.
...But only burst mages seem to get the bat.
Vex receiving a buff? We eating good tonight! Thanks for another good vid!

XD Thanks
Fortunately Vex has a 0% play rate in my games!
