@Meddler, will you be adding some more NLR items if Rylais loses some of its AP
So Meddler was so nice to chime in in one of the Rylais threads and commented that they'd be nerfing Rylais regardless if it were to become a Tanky or Mana centric item. This would mean that there won't be an awful lot of NLR items that provide a nice chunk of AP.
So how about adding some high tier AP items to fill that niche? Back in Black Market Brawlers there were TWO items I would love to have on Summoner's rift.
Namely Pox Arcana and Netherstride Grimoire
Pox Arcana +100% base mana regeneration +100 ability power +20% cool down reduction Passive UNIQUE – POX: Applies a stack of Pox for 10 seconds whenever you deal ability damage, stacking up to 5 times. Active UNIQUE – DISEASE HARVEST: Deals 100 magic damage plus 20 (+5% AP) per stack of Pox (maximum of 200 (+25% AP)) to all nearby enemies affected by Pox, and restores 5% of your maximum mana for every Pox stack harvested. 60 second cool down.
Netherstride Grimoire +100% base mana regeneration +100 ability power +20% cooldown reduction Passive UNIQUE – MALICE: Gain 20% movement speed for 2 seconds whenever you deal ability damage.
Netherstride Grimoire especially would fill the niche of a kite option for mages if Rylais gets shifted into the tankier utility item it should be
Thoughts? Because I sure would love having the option which Man/CDR item I would want to build on my mages, depending on the champion, matchup and play style.
,and many things that are meant to have their weakness be immobility.
would fit the bill.

which provides a generic 10% MS boost in the game right now, but none of these champions feel like they are over-the-top because of it. It is also a big damage ticket item. Still not being built. 20% MS for 2 seconds upon LANDING an ability isn't that strong and there can always be follow-up balance changes to outliers. The item in itself is very interesting!

are still pretty big items for damage.
if they really need to get another AP item out there.

That's why

make very good use of it, it's basically fulfilling it's purpose to be honest as a niche mobility item. Although, it's damage is just a tad too high.


extremely strong.
