A concern about lifesteal/healing.

Hello community. I am here to discuss an issue that I think is actually pretty bad.

In my opinion, in the current game there isn't a real good standby item to shut down extreme healers/lifestealers.

Classic example-Dr. Mundo.

He heals an ungodly amount, stack that with Spirit Visage and the Warmogs and a few other HP items and he truly is unkillable. Before season 5 we had the Executioners Calling item. It gave whomever holding it grievous wounds on all their basic attacks. This option in addition to the Morellonomiconitem 3165 and Ignitesummoner 14 gave all classes and champions enough grievous wound options to actually shut down a Dr. Mundo, Nocturne, Olaf, Soraka or any other high sustain/burst heal champion.

I hope that the Gods of league smile upon me for this insight and give me back the option to buy this item. While I am not sure why it left, I do miss it so. If the old Executioners isn't an option please make a new item that can give any welder grievous wounds. Because otherwise the healthy bruiser types won't have any true counter play.

Thank you for your time. Please give me your opinions below!

...did anyone actually BUY Executioner's? Seriously, nobody wanted the stats it gave (whooo, 25 AD and 20% crit chance. Bruisers don't want the crit, carries don't want to gimp their damage, and nobody else wants to waste 1900 gold on a meh mid game item).

Otherwise, Morellonomicon is almost core on every single mage right now, so I think that's enough GW every game to mess up any healing based champion already.

No one EVER bought Executioners, except these days like literally everyone buys Morellonomicon

At the very least ignite has become a little less standard issue

It's basically the same as before since Executioner's Calling was complete garbage that never should've been made pretty much no matter what. So there's still morello and ignite which seems like plenty to me. Remember this is a team game so it's not that hard for some members of your team to have those, even if you don't.

For some reason, I think Mundo was less of an issue in your last game than the Veigar who got 23 kills.

A single game isn't really a good reason to decide game balance.

It is not enough. Because not every mage decides to pick the Morello. And as mentioned ignite isn't standard issue anymore. It was an option when none other existed. And it shut down a fed super healer. Which if nobody else is trying to shut down then it becomes the one's who noticed job. Regardless of all of opinions it was an option. And I believe Riot likes to have options.
