Trinity Force on Kha'Zix?

Visigoth··2 votes·2,975 views

What do you guys think? I haven't had a chance to try it, but apparently it's pretty decent for the burst Sheen gives. I know there's "Diamond 1 Khazix," a Challenger Kha'Zix main, who buys it second item almost every game (right after Hydra, unless the enemy has tons of armor early or if way behind), after his jungle item.

It is bad because it takes too long to weave in enough procs for it to be significantly better than cheaper items that would get you snowballing harder than the components of item 3078 (neither item 3057 nor item 3086 have stats that are really good for him) if you are building as a squishy assassin. And because all his main damage abilities are physical damage, you cannot afford to delay armor pen items by very much. Furthermore, base AD scales less with levels than base HP so it becomes far less impactful of a pick up the later you get it.

kinda of a "im fed who cares" item. Khazix benefits from Raw AD given how high his scalings are.

his scalings are actually pretty low, only his isolated+evolved Q has a good scaling on it.

Q:PHYSICAL DAMAGE: 70 / 95 / 120 / 145 / 170 (+ 120% Bonus AD) DAMAGE TO ISOLATED TARGET: 91 / 123.5 / 156 / 188.5 / 221 (+ 156% Bonus AD)

W: PHYSICAL DAMAGE: 80 / 110 / 140 / 170 / 200 (+ 100% Bonus AD)

i didn't know 100% + on both W and Q before evolved is a low scaling. lol...

and he only has those 2 ratios (leap has what, 30% bonus AD?) in his kit, for a total of only about 200-300% bonus AD as ratios in his kit. Lee sin has better ratios than that and is still known for having weak scaling damage.

Kha'zix can also get his Q down to 2.1 second CD with 40% cdr which isnt unheard of if you go for that glass cannon build. If you are trying to say Lee Sin does better with Full damage than Kha'Zix you are highly misslead.

Kha'Zix doesn't lvl up his E for damage, he uses it for his utility.. his Q is his main source of damage.. last season it was his W.. I don't think you know enough about Kha'Zix, just saying.

I'm not saying Lee does better. The only point of my comparison was to point out how most of Kha's power isn't in having high scalings, but better burst combos in tandem with his resets, something that Trinity force and armor pen helps with more than just raw AD.

Well, he spams Q and has to weave in autos for his passive anyway, so I can't see it as being bad.

Trinity force is a good addition to Kha'zix's burst rotation and has a nice build path that can benefit from each piece. I still think his base damage is a little too low for early game isolation though.

Not really worth the insane amount of gold cost it has. The sheen proc just is fine, but the item itself doesn't give him anything he needs besides maybe the AD and mana.

Just build whatever combination of Hydra, LW, Ghostblade, Cleaver, Maw of Malmortius, Bloodthirster that fits the game for your offense.
