Jax's debuff is good, totally approve of it and it will keep him viable, but make him more reasonable.
TF's debuff is garbage. He'll probably end up a little bit worse off because of losing destiny's slow, but that new passive is so stupid and blue cards restoring mana is just O_O. I think the end result of that debuff is just that he'll be a little less scary to the entire map 2 seconds after he goes mia because running will still be an option, but he'll be outputting way more damage and harassing much harder early. Certainly a different feel for TF, but I'd be surprised if he weren't still the best character in the game after it.
Alistar's debuff is fairly pedestrian. It will have very little impact on him, but it's a step in the right direction I suppose. He's still being allowed to be the best tank/initiator in the game without ever needing to buy a tanking item.
Teemo is hard countered by merc treads
. God, he's soooo bad right now because of that one item. Should get better for him with the patch with this note though:
"# Split all Slows with multiple effects into separate buffs. This will cause immunity or reduction to the slow to have no effect on the other portion of the spell."
I still think he'll be on the lower end of viability, but jeez, I dunno how anyone can rage about him right now as the most obvious boots choice accidentally reduces the damage from his ult by 40% (not even counting the magic resist).
Sivir should make people rage harder. If Sivir ever gets rolling, she is essentially unkillable (veil + spell sheild + ult that increases her run speed + passive that increases her fleeing dodge change = good ****ing luck) and automatically gives her team ridiculous map control. She is countered by a few early game matchups (Ashe and Trist) that can keep her from getting rolling, but she's just so much better at farming and pushing than everyone else that it always surprises me that people aren't raging harder over her.
My feeling on fiddlesticks is just that fear should be removed as a game mechanic cause it's ******** and they should just give him some other ability in place of his fear. There are only 2 things that fear right now (JitB and fiddle's fear) and the mechanic is stupid as balls and completely unfun, so they should just axe it.
It was fun playing with you guys, but that nerd rage was too much for me at the end there
