For those of you complaining about Brutalizer

It is an early game item. Period. It builds into Ghostblade because it is also an early game item. Building an early game item into a late game item made no sense. Hence why when BC was reworked it no longer built out of it.

All this talk about item diversity when there are plenty of options. You should have to choose early game, mid game, late game. You cannot have everything. The only reason they made 2 daggers into recurve was it was an extremely awkward item. With Brutalizer it was openning up paths for people like Talon to go "oh I'm behind let me build for late game" instead or go "hey I'm winning hard let me build Ghostblade and snowball harder".

If you do not want a Ghostblade either build Brutalizer for an early spike and sell it later, or don't build it at all.

no idea who ever complained about brutalizer, but ghostblade is still an all-game-item and dunno, all good i guess.

Basically people are angry that this item only has one item it builds into outside of the jungle.

They don't want to sell it late game because that seems counter productive putting 1337 gold into something and getting 936 back.

That being said ghostblade is a really under rated item given that it does have 20 armor pen on it and the active of attack speed and movement speed is actually fairly strong assuming you know how and when to use it.

Without BC as an upgrade it's very similar to an AD version of item 3136 , which you usually only buy as a Mid Game powerspike on champions with high Base Damages like Elise Katarina Kennen Rumble Zyra , but which you sell later on because you can't make good use of the upgrade ( item 3151 ).
