I feel kinda bad for mages

As someone who almost never plays mages, unless you count Morg support, I really feel for them now with GA turning into an AD item. It's gonna be funny to see mages building two AD items in .

Idk why they're changing GA, probably wanna make mages more useless than they already are.

item 3031 item 3036 item 3046 item 3094 item 3026 item 3006

Pretty sure this will be a building for many adcs

Along with the support items, most adc will have a lot of survive-ability

More likely item 3031 item 3036 item 3085 item 3026 item 3139 item 3006

Why not just get an insane sum of durability and escapability when there's no real tradeoff.

30%crit on a champion that needs to crit is big

50% crit has been the meta build before. You don't need the extra 30% at all. The extra AD from Mercurial makes the damage difference fairly small and the extra lifesteal and 'oh shit I fucked up' button make it so you don't actually get punished for your mistakes, which is far better than a small increase in damage.

I feel like the ADC build path will likely be something like item 3087 item 3031 item 3006 item 3036 item 3026 item 3139 or some variation of it.

They won't build those.

We already see them building item 3140 which builds into item 3139

Mages aren't really building GA anyways, it's not a terribly mage friendly option considering Abyssal and Zhonya's are better options for defensive stats with more ideal effects for mages, period. Only problem with those to is that most people take 10% CDR in runes, pick up Morellonomicon because it's super core on almost all mages, putting you at 30% and making only 10% more CDR desirable. Still, that can be worked around by taking flat 5% CDR in runes and taking both those items, wasting only 5% CDR overall which is not that bad.
