Huzzah, haemorrhage will now cause me to bleed less!

What does haemorrhage mean anyway again?

Bleeding, it's a fancy word for bleeding.
Or rather "bleeding" is a common word for haemorrhaging.

So that's why people use "bleeding" instead.

It's shorter and sounds less fatal.

Hemorrhage is more specific than bleeding, though. It's a rapid and profuse bleeding, such as when a blood vessel ruptures.

[Malrend]

Actually, no.. Though it's what it's mainly used to describe these days.

[Perrycox42]

Actually, yes: http://www.merriam-w...nary/hemorrhage

Also, the etymology:

Quote

c.1400, emorosogie (modern form by 17c.), from L. haemorrhagia, from Gk. haimorrhagia, from haimorrhages "bleeding violently," from haima "blood" (see -emia) + rhage "a breaking," from rhegnynai "to break, burst." Related: Hemorrhagic

[Malrend]

Ah it seems, that I misunderstood, it's when the blood escapes into the surrounding tissue. Which can lead to excessive bleeding, so we're both correct in that respect.

Ah, ok. Hemorrhaging is exactly as bad as it sounds then.

Drastic buffs to Swain. I thought he was balanced already but I think Riot is going a bit too far. We'll see.

Also, Urgot doesn't go mid, he dominates bot lane with a support because you can't really trade with him or harass him back. The nerfs are necessary.

Ever since they nerfed his ultimated, he went from extremely strong to just a shade of himself.

I never had a problem with dominating lane as Swain.

Swain is fine the way he is now, and so is Urgot and Graves imo. Hooray for Ahri and Darius nerfs though.
