Hi everyone it's Matt here with another video.
I know I haven't uploaded a video in a while but I needed to descus some things with people
before I could upload more videos. Now that this is all done I will be uploading
more videos more frequently.
This being said, let's start with the video.
Today I'm going to talk about why stealth champions are going to be really strong with
the new vision changes that were implemented and the removal
of Oracle's Elixir in patch 3.14.
First let's go over the Vision ward changes.
The first change is that the Vision wards are NOT stealthed anymore and they do not
expire over time, This means that enemies can see them at any
time when they walk past it. This change will give the stealth junglers
a clear view of the possible ganking paths. Vision wards are now easely avoidable or destroyed
if they are placed in the ganking path the jungler.
A sneaky way of removing such a ward in your ganking path is to ask the laner to clear
the Vision ward for you, this way the enemy laner won't see you comming.
The second change is that every player is now restricted to placing only 1 Vision ward
on the map. This combined with the fact that they aren't stealthed anymore, means
that players need to be more carefull with where they place
their Vision wards on the map. This restriction will give stealth junglers
a massive advantage because there will most likely be a ganking path that isn't
warded by the Vision Ward.
The last two changes are that the gold cost of the Vision wards is now lowered to 100
gold instead of 125 gold and they now need 5 hits to be destroyed instead of 3.
These last two changes don't really have any influence on the power of stealth
champions but I thought they were worth mentioning.
These changes give stealth junglers a lot of power because they can now see where the
enemies have placed their pink wards. This makes them easely avoidable or they can
even be removed really easy if they are placed in the middle of a ganking route.
I think that people will start playing more stealth champions after patch 3.14 because
also Oracle's Elixir has been removed from the game
The vision changes and removal of Oracle's Elixir combined will will ensure that more
people will start playing champions with some kind of stealth ability.
Not only jungling champions with stealth abilities will feel their power increase with these
changes. Also champions like twitch as ad carry, kha
zix in the mid lane and also top champions like wukong and rengar will feel their power increase
These champions also benefit from the removal of Oracle's Elixir and the
restriction on Vision wards per player. These changes will helps
these champions reposition, gank, escape or get into the back lines of the enemy
team by using there stealth abilities.
Don't worry if you think that stealth champions will become undetectable, because patch 3.14
also brings something called a sweeping lens. This is a trinket that reveals
stealthed units in a small area. In other words there is still a portable item
out there that is able to detect stealthed units, but it has a 180 second cooldown at
rank 1.
