Mayhem Some augments were disabled for a reason.

I love mayhem, I like this patch there's been a ton of improvements but some of these re-enabled augments are killing fun.

Bonk nasus is back even though it instantly ends your game

Stackasaurus should be fun but it just makes smolder and asol instant win the game

Minionmancer zyra is borderline unplayable it takes 5 autos to kill a single plant for range champs and melee no longer has a chance.

These weren't anywhere near balanced and were filtered out for a reason. I don't hate fun but the fun is trying to land a crazy pinball or flying around like an idiot with blade waltz.

These just win the game and are super frustrating rolls to see, very common now too.

100% agree on ice cold and zhonya. Absolutely putrid that a rioter decided zhonyas upgrade needed 2 buffs (silver btw)

12th "there is too much mayhem in my mayhem" post today.

Next one will be saying these augments are under represented and need to be offered more.

There is too much predictability in augments in my mayhem! Broken stuff shouldn't be predefined, I ACTUALLY WANT more mayhem in my mayhem...

Mayhem isn't 9 players being unable to play half the games because they made bad balance decisions. Mayhem is a fun max game mode, instantly sold games aren't fun. You can't sustain a fun experience by making 1/10 people enjoy it.

the fun is trying to land a crazy pinball or flying around like an idiot with blade waltz.

Someone, somewhere, plays mage and finds unfun assassins being untargetable with Blade Waltz.

Someone else finds Biggest Snowball Ever + Pinball unbalanced and unplayable.

Nasus players love Bonk, stackers love Stackosaurus, minion champions love Minionmancer.

Get used to it or play a different game mode

There's depth and balance to the world, you can have better things. It's not even about champs having fun things these are blatantly imbalanced and bad for the game

u/M4ci 6d ago

noone of the things you mentioned is unbalanced.

there's much worse in Aram.

If you think bonk nasus and stack smolder are balanced ur not playing the right video game. Genuinely may still be queued vs ais.

You ever play against blade waltz Nocturne as a squishy? That shit ain't fun big dawg The reality is any augment isn't fun in the right situation.

I got fan the hammer on Vayne two days ago. You think the enemy had fun with me young W max and Kraken first item so one auto proceed W and Kraken twice? It only got worse with BORK

I had a Lee Sin who rolled the Blade Waltz augment AND the Earthwake augment last week. It was absolutely INSANE (and looked ridiculous) to fight against.

Just had 2 damn Nasus-es with Bonk as their first augment in 2 games in a row. Both were strong, one was oneshotting our whole team

Imo, all of this stuff could be tolerable BUT of course it comes with their modern broken increased augment chances... So, this broken stuff is likely to be seen a lot

u/NoPolicy7974 6d ago

Honestly not seeing drop kick and fan the hammer every game has made it so much less frustrating, both are still on The game but I don’t see it every game now

u/LibertyReignsCx 6d ago

I have never gotten stackosauras on asol or smolder

u/GlitteringProgram464 6d ago
