Generation after generation of gods, when a hero is too strong, it will naturally attract the attention of the balanced team.
The latest member of the League of Legends, "Zuan Hanabi Zeli", performed generally at the beginning of the line, and after developing the three-phase hurricane playing style a few days later, he quickly became a hero of the T1 level of the major servers, and he could kill randomly when he got it. In recent years, the new hero has not performed well in the first and even second versions of the line, Zeli can be said to be an alternative, and her operation is still easier than That of Euphreus.
Given Zeri's strong performance, the designers couldn't wait for this week's 12.3 release to go live, weakening her hurricane interaction with Luanna last week. But after Zeli suffered an urgent weakening from the designer, the designer announced a new change plan this week. Zeli will be weakened in the 12.4 version in two weeks, and the scheduled plan has been announced so far.
Her base movement speed will be reduced from 330 to 325, and Zeli is a parkour ADC hero who uses ultra-high movement speed to kite opponents, after all, she is an electric theme hero. This weakening had a significant impact on Zeli, especially when the early equipment was not formed and the level was low.
Zeli's Q skill also reduces the damage, and the recharge is full of additional damage after the general attack, from 3-20% of the target's maximum health to 3-15%, and the output ability in the middle and late stages is greatly reduced.
Finally, the R skill is weakened, and the damage of chain lightning is reduced from 10/20/30 to 10/15/20, and the damage of the middle and late stages is reduced a lot. As compensation, Chain Lightning can now trigger critical strikes, as Zeli's current mainstream play is the Speed Effects Suit, and the designers want the hero to return to the ADC's mainstream Critical Strike Suit.
Overall, Zeli's maneuverability and output capabilities have been greatly weakened in this version. Zeli in the next road position, the early line ability is not so strong, but the output of the middle and late stages is too high, after this change, if Zeli is suppressed in the early stage, the middle and late stages want to turn over and take over the team battle, it may be a little damaged.
But Zeli's other problem is that she's not just in a strong ADC position right now, she's also very strong in other positions. Zeli is a T2 hero in the upper single position, which can suppress a bunch of short-handed non-explosive heroes. She is in the middle single position is more T1 position, online can stabilize the development can also be supported everywhere. No matter which position Zeli, the winning rate is above 52%, and the designer naturally wants to shoot the head bird.
In the Game of League of Legends, since the map is not very large, the speed of movement is a very important attribute, especially in the hands of top players, which can infinitely pull the upper limit of the operation, dodge critical damage and key controls. After several years of adjustments, League of Legends is that few heroes can sustain ultra-high speed, but once Zeli runs, the movement speed is 400 or even more than 500 resident, running too fast.
As far as the current weakening range is concerned, Sara feels that Zeli will still be a T1-level hero, cutting 5 basic movement speed although a little injured, but if the hero of the single line does not have hard control skills, it is still difficult to catch Zeli, she ran directly over the wall. Zeli, who plays well, can communicate with each other in the single line, and can suppress each other across the stage, let alone professional players.
As a result, Zeli now has a high appearance and ban rate, and she defaulted to banning it in last week's main division competition, and if released this week, it may become a non-prohibited role. The designers decided to weaken it again in version 12.4 to get Zeli back to normal, and if this weakening didn't have a noticeable effect, Sara thought that the base movement rate might have to be cut by another 5 points, or the passive extra movement bonus would be cut a lot.
A highly mobile hero, the impact on the League of Legends is too great, the damage of this hero is secondary, the special effects stream can not play can also play the designer's main critical hit stream. Due to the Spring Festival holiday, the national costume is a merger and update of the 12.3 and 12.4 versions, so we can continue to use Zelishuang for a period of time.
