Just read manifesto.
Glorious changes that were much needed. I think a lot of you think that everyone runs with 6 links. 95% of people run with 5links. The 1% is actually the most hit by those changes not the lower ones.
1. Mana cost went through the roof which means you can't just stack zylion of damage via links because you either will have to let go defense or you will have no mana for that zylion damage.
2. Flasks got nuked. This was what 1% played. 95% of other people never cared for flasks and never used them like 1% uses them and always found that mechanic shit since they increased monster desnity.
3. Major damage buffs from supports got nuked hard. With 6 links we are talking about nearly 60% damage reduction for 5 links it is about 40%
4. They reduced a lot of sources of move speed. They changed few key items as well nuked from orbit increased movement speed mod on flasks from 20-30% to 6-8%. So that hits hard zoomers and their piano turbo.
5. Curse/elemental aflictions imminities got butchered. 1% main defense was always curse resists and elemental afliction resists now they have to actually hit flaks correctly and curse flasks don't give curse immunities.
What that means is that those 1% ters you talk about that "won't feel it only 99% will" actually got hit hard.
1% are the ones that used the most effective combinations of supports which means they are the most affected by damage nerfs
1% are the ones who played flasks piano the most and got huge buffs due to that. They are the one hit the most by it.
1% are the ones stacked move speed the most for that zoom zoom, with flasks nerfs turbo is reduced a lot
1% are the ones who got imminities for everything, now they won't and will have to deal with what 95% of people deal.
Yes 1% are still 1% who will still be at the top but the gap between 1% and 99% of rest got much much much narrower. On other hand 1% won't be able to just one shot everything and have constantly up megadefences normal people won't be able to even think up.
