in many ways, wither is more reliable than Equilibrium Strike, and Decisive Strike is deceptively powerful. you don't have to have them in your cool kid's club for those guys to still be quite strong.

Sure, they're strong, but I don't see them as top picks. They may become viable due to bans but in and of themselves they fall short of the "cool kids club" with members like Renekton, Jarminkus, and Irelia.
Eh, I'd still nerf the stats on P stone a bit. It's not like you HAVE to stack them for it to be effective. Cut out some of the mana regen, make people have to actually try to get mana regen instead of starting Health Pendant and 300 gold later BAM mana regen.
Eh, sorta. The big problem Whither has is that Tenacity ***** how effective it is since the CC scales over time. Especially noticeable on champs like Irelia and Trundle, targets you would want to whither outside of carries, they barely notice whither at all and take 2/less seconds of a small slow/as setback while leaving your spell on more than 10 sec cooldown (unless you have huge CDR on Nasus). If they changed Whither to where Tenacity sped up the scaling process but still had it occur for a shorter duration, then it would definitely be more reliable. But it sucks putting Whither on someone and watching them not even get to the "gross" part of it before it's over.
Cause people love to QQ.Why would they insist on ****** Vlad THAT much?
This post made my day
I agree, this is pretty much what everyone should be thinking about while laning. Glad someone made something like this, and I hope that the newer players get a look at this and try to apply it.
I doubt they've even finalized the nerfs internally yet, so we don't really know exactly what's getting nerfed and how.
I don't think he's that many "really"s from a solid draft pick, but I digress. I do think he's probably in the ballpark of Xin, and maybe Lee Sin. (For some reason I have a hard time placing Lee Sin into this category.)
He really really is.
(seriously). I mean, w/e, he's a fine pick when there's no Irelia/Jarman, but he is pretty heavily outclassed by those 2 and is in the 2nd/3rd class ballpark of pretty much everyone else.
The only difference I see with WW and Vlad is Vlad can spam abilities always while WW only can if he has blue. Same with Swain in that regard. There was just that critical level with Vlad where he could herp derp roll face on keyboard target you or minions and constantly push while never having to go back and being relatively hard to gank due to pool + summoners. So that combo of no mana + huge lane sustain just made him incredibly annoying. It's basically he is a souped up philosopher stone of sustainability.
WW doesn't Q every 2 seconds with a nuke that scales with stats you're expected to get. I mean the Annie part sure, she's a *****.
No, because most people force WW into a jungle position when they see him chosen.
what's a terrible idea?
Get really good at baiting spellshield, but also make sure to save it for important stuff - Don't spellshield a damage spell only to get rooted.
I think most people don't really know what a lanewick can do.
