Quck Silver Sash vs Zhonya's Watch (Unfair)

Why is the watch item designed as one time use only, versus QSS is multi-use. The repeat use feature of QSS basically destroys certain champs abilities early game whereas Zhonya must be a full item to get repeat use out of it.

QSS severely adversely effects Malzahar's game play. One "work around" would be to covert Malz suppress to a knock up. At least that way, QSS effects would be mitigated.

Because you can get stopwatch for free, is more then half the price of QSS, has a far stronger active by far, and the combined cost of the item is also less?

If you want Zhonya to cost the price of QSS, it would need to lose its damage and CDR, why are we even comparing these two items?

Oh so this is just clear and blatant bias and favoritism, got it.

I’m sorry that your point and click hardest cc in the game has counterplay.

Because zhonyas has a better active(for mages and assassins at least) as well as better stats on the item itself. The stopwatch active can completely swing games around; there's a reason why it is complained about so often. Also, zhonyas is core on most mages. merc scim and even qss aren't core on any champ, they're situational items.

Riot says its the cost but Im with you. QSS should be a one time use item and you need the full item to get the reuse. It also should be on a 120s CD not the 90s CD BS.
