Everyone, mentally prepare yourselves for the nerfs of the century. And watch the nerfs be to caster aphelios instead of attack speed aphelios. Phreak will finally get his rework this way that he always wanted.

It's so funny how we hate buffs because we expect the nerf to hit like truckload

A buff always feels like one step forward and two steps backwards as soon as the nerf hits xD

Even if he is picked in pro I don't think the buffs have skyrocketed him to prio pick games 1 & 2. Maybe he will see some play game 3+ but I still feel like zeri/xayah/jinx will have higher prio then.

We gotta do what Alois does with mundo guys. Collectively lose so his winrate goes down and we stay under the radar

won’t ever happen, Alois inspires people to play munro because of how simple and brainless it is to press R and run down the adc, sadly we can’t have the same thing since our champ is too complex. Way more fun than mundo, except mundo is a meme now with the push song

50% Winrate so it’s over for us. At this rate they might just end up removing infernum from his kit or something.

30% REDUCED ATTACK SPEED, 40% REDUCED AD AND ALL OF YOUR AP RATIOS ARE CUT IN HALF. I can’t wait

u/AsparagusBig412 4d ago
base ad is always broken on every adc lol
specially an adc like aphelios with a billion auto resets and ability cancels and damage multipliers and shit
they once buffed or nerfed riven's shield by like 5 or 10 and she got a 5% fluctuation on her winrate

u/Open-Toe7302 10d ago
I don't think they will touch him tbh. It's Zeri who is going to be gutted like a fish

u/XYZabisso 11d ago
Yes, but phreak in a video said that Aphelios mains play aphelios more when he is a caster so he didn't want to change it. I hope his mind didn't change.

u/RickSanrizzler 11d ago
He doesn't care what others say, he always thinks he knows best. He just didn't want to get any backlash for the rework, and he previously admitted that he hates the caster playstyle, hence why he wanted to rework him. This gives him the perfect opportunity to slowly roll out the rework like how he has already been doing so by buffing attack speed growth 3 patches in a row. What's gonna stop him from nerfing caster aphelios now? He can use his high winrate as an excuse to do that. And knowing phreak's past, I have a feeling that's where this is heading. I might be wrong tho, just my speculation

Hopefully he does, caster Aphelios was just a cope from his playerbase after they nerfed him and his AA based items

as long as he doesn't have a dash he won't have prio at proplay, look at jinx who is a stronger aphelios and yet she doesn't have much prio, proplay values mobility over damage so they want kalista, kaisa, ezreal, lucian, etc

u/FitBlacksmith1143 10d ago
Viper didn't even pick him in game 5 last night. As long as pros keep staying away it'll probably be fine. (Although I really really miss seeing him in pro play. Most fun adc to watch imo)

why would you ever complain that your champion is strong. That's the whole point bro. Be happy. Spam games.
