As much as i'm loving ADC's demolishing everyone this patch it's a bit annoying when Lucian can now burst people 100-0 in 2 seconds with the active, Armor pen at least was countered by tanks but not even tanks can do anything VS this BOTRK rush every game.
When 4-5 are built every game i think something is going wrong with the buff
Lux Tizer4 votesI think it's way more of a Lucian problem than it is an ADC problem. He's such a balance volatile champion that 1 single item change can easily spike him back to a 43% play rate.
Doseqis1 votesIDK when Caitlyn and Jinx are rushing BOTRK in games for lane and mid game it doesn't seem very balanced, it's the classic problem of tank busting items also being good vs squishies
Lux Tizer1 votesThere's definitely some merit to that opinion, but one thing to consider is how static the ADC role as a whole has always been. Pretty much every AD in the game before this item went BF > Zeal > Boots > 1/3 finished Zeal items. (Not counting PD, since it's so rare that's ever anyone's first pick.)
The biggest advantage you're noticing this item provide is some dogfighting potential again, which is something I think the role desperately needed. I wish I could put in to words how good it feels not having to basically Alt-Tab the second you see a midlaner or jungler 2500 range from you.
Captain Aishi1 voteswhen an item meant to counter health stacking champions is the most effective single AD item you can have as long as your target has over 500 current health, you know there's a big problem with that item

Doseqis1 votesThe thing was the item synergises with its self before you got lots of attack speed and the % hp damage but it didn't have alot of AD so you couldn't rush it and kill both tanks and carries alike.
With the AD it lets you burst other squishies with the active and AD but maintain a tankbuster passive
