Unpopular opinion...guinsoos is a terrible item

You have to attack 6 times to get the passive to kick in, and late game fights are so short you'll probably be dead before the passive even kicks in. You're better off just getting crit if you're an adc honestly (heck, even on Kayle I'd rather have crit than this). And yea the mixed damage seems appealing if the enemy is building armor, but if armor is the problem why not just get a last whisper instead? Finally the stats on this item are terrible and it's REALLY expensive. Want more proof it's garbage? Look at the 4 adc's with the highest winrates (Vayne isn't there btw). Jinx, Twitch, Ashe, and Sivir. Literally NONE of them have this item as part of their build. I rest my case

Ryze also doesn't have Guinsoo's in his build! Guinsoo's is confirmed a terrible item.

Ryze doesn't rely on auto attack for damage. Completely different.

Jinx, Sivir, Twitch, and Ashe don’t rely on on-hits for damage either.

This is a red herring

He's saying "Crit ADC's are absolutely better than on hit ADC's because Guinsoos, a central part of an on-hit ADC's dps, is weak"

He's not saying "If it was good, it'd be built by all these champions it doesn't synergise well with"
