Really, because what TSM's doing has me thinking otherwise picking up a total no name and making him work, excel even.
As good as Aphro is (or can be at least, unironically has been getting outperformed by Biofrost as a whole this split) you can only carry so much from the Support position. Having a special talent at your carry position is an almost invaluable boon.
Not even getting into the fact that Doublelift is literally a lead shotcaller for TSM alongside Bjergsen which is a hilarious thought in itself. Yeah the team synergy got them a spring split NA title and I'm not gonna take away the inarguable best showing for an NA team EVER internationally, but it feels like they've put their potential ceiling lower with those roster changes.

Once she completes Eye of the Watchers and Ardent Censor her E gives her ~21% movement speed and teammates ~16%. Now mind you that's with just one point in E, leaving you to decide whether or not to max Q or W first. The AP combined with the bonus heal and shield from Ardent means she's zipping the entire team around while spamming ridiculous shields on everyone. This is the first power spike.
The next spike occurs when she puts her next point into R and the CDR just starts to get ridiculous. As the components of Athene's start to get built it all just stacks together and the team can just barrel down lane and never take any damage. At this point her E is usually around a ~3.5 second cooldown which means she can keep her team sped up nearly indefinitely.
God help the enemy team if she ever gets to lvl 16, cause then everyone is literally perma-shielded and sped up.
In short Eye of the Watchers -> Ardent Censor -> Athene's = team sanic

It's finally been viable after YEARS of being shit ever since the mage itemization update last year and has created mage parity the likes we've never seen. With all the mobility creeped cancer shit in the game god forbid mages have something to counter it with

What the fuck? Did they nerf Baron?
Let me preface this by saying that I haven't played LoL in many months. I decided to log-in to dick around with my favorite champ Nasus in a CUSTOM GAME just for the fun of it. Just farming everything and raping the computer AI. Nothing special at all.
I wanted to end the session by getting executed by Baron. He dropped like it was nothing. I killed him as easily as Nasus kills dragon. Last time I played LoL, I would've been lucky to get Baron to 50% hp with this same amount of items before he killed me. I'm confused.
