{
"body": "The sole reason of gem grab is that you need gem retribution.\nWith this change you'll see mortis going in, grabbing a gem and then retreating. That isn't a crazy or busted strategy, but I can see it be very annoying. I'll assume that the gema will again spawn in the middle (and not randomly on the map). Even if it will take more time and gems, you'll still be able to grab gems as a lane brawler and you'll just have to stay alive for 3 more seconds. It's an interesting concept, but takes away from the fundamentals of gem grab.",

{
"body": "Mortis is already doing that. And if your team is squishy it's really hard to do something against it. \n\nAnyway I can't really imagine gem grab like that but we're not gonna see anymore Corbac HC or Leon super at the end of the game stealing all the gems before disappearing",
"replies": [
{
"body": "Yes Mortis is already doing that, but the problem lies im the fact that after a couple off seconds he can either get another gem or just rush the opponents to get HC. That's the problem I have that now the role of the gem carrier is completely removed",

I bet they even used the same code.\n\nI never minded the individual parts of Siege, I just thought they should make the bot spawn based on the difference between bolts, because the number of times I lost because the other team had banked bolts from the first two waves was infuriating. If they wanted to escalate the game they could have made later waves spawn stronger bots.",
