We don't like that ADCs are using wit's end, Or that Cass is building Abyssal mask...

So we will make the item so niche that almost no one will build it.

Riot mentality 101.....

This items already have very low pick rates. had a 1% pick rate. Then Riot made it melee oriented. Now almost no one builds it.

15% damage amp honest IMO isn't worth how close you need to be to access it. Because not all of your skills will be used in that range. ult and Q is used from a distance. ult can be used from a distance ult W E, can be used in the distance.

This means the damage amp is only accessed in all in trade....

I just feel like they made very niche items, even more restricted and now no one really uses them.

item 3091 is an item I see having so much synergy with so many kits. It's baffling that Riot found a way to make it not worth using for so long.

The issue imo is the amount of team stats it gives. Funny enough this kind of stat used to be very gold efficient and sought after like on the old item 3110 or item 3190 where it nerfed all enemies around. Same for the old WOTA that gave aoe spellvamp. WOTA got removed and the others nerfed or changed with locket's having it's passive that give nearby allied units +15 magic resist removed. other items that have slows do also help allies. I think it would be sort of cool if in a 1v1 or isolation the stats on wits end were stronger somehow. I see it being great for top lane however you're investing in a lot of team stats that do not translate well in a 1v1 scenario. And if your jungler is primarily AD it's even less worth while even if you only engage with assistance from jungler.

I would like it if the item was adaptive based on situation, like if it could tell if you are in a 1v1 or not. maybe the weapon could behave differently if surrounded by or recently too damage from 3 enemies. Or maybe it could be toggled.

I would prefer it if it gave 50% attack speed. maybe a little bit of wave clear, and was not as team oriented, so in other words gave only the wearer bonus stats as opposed to emphasizing debuffing the enemy. Like maybe give the wearer only more magic pen with each hit but only towards the targets they hit (it would not reset like Vayne's passive however if you switch target, or maybe it could if that makes it simpler). or a mix of both debuff the enemy magic resist up to 15% and more stats to the wearer.

Posted these suggestions the other day for wits end to be viable: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/TnMguz23-wits-end-upgrade-idea-only-affects-minions

so many heroes could use it Poppy Shen Irelia Nasus Skarner Diana Rammus Kennen Aatrox Akali really any hero with that synergize with magic pen and AS, every hero synergizes with MR if the enemy comp calls for it
