http://www.surrenderat20.net/2015/11/patch-522-notes_10.html Feast your eyes on this horror. Riot. You have had some bad mistakes in the past. But this one.....is to big. Like look at all the ap items now. This game isnt even about the other lanes anymore its all ADC. Ap items were already expensive enough. And then trinity being a main item for the top lane is now being shot up an extra 100 gold with no ap onto it anymore... What is this. Like im mad. Being a top lane and jungle main this frustrates me. Because ravenous is even being nerfed. Oh and not to mention half the assassins that use brutalizer wont be able to because they got rid of it. For being as money hungry as riot is they shouldnt be changing the game this drastically so fast. Im really mad about this. Is anyone else?

good news on bruta at least

it's being replaced by a (cheaper!) item that does pretty much the same thing. i don't remember the name of the new item, but it's going to be 1100 gold for pretty much the same stats.

Please do us all a favor and reread the article. Half your arguments aren't really too problematic.

Trinity lost 30 ap for +10% CDR. 30 less ap isn't hurting your ability to kill the enemy, however +10%CDR will make you able to use said abilities more often. Also it did lose a few points on some other stats, but it gained an additional 10% crit chance.

Brutalizer was replaced by Last Whisper which is essentially an improvement since a flat 10 armor pen is not going to scale into mid game as well as 30% armor pen on an item which can be made into another item which then has 40% armor pen.

Some of the AP items were buffed to compensate the increase in cost. e.g. item 3100 item 3115 item 3027 item 3041 Others were increased in cost and/or nerfed to make them less of an early game power spike. e.g. item 3136 item 3191 And a few were given a reduction in their costs without being nerfed, some even were buffed as well. e.g. item 3152 item 3001 item 3101 Another point is that I believe RIOT is trying to make Mejias more of a common build item, not just that only if I am doing great, high risk high reward item. That item got so many buffs for no additional cost.

Lastly, AD based, non tank/juggernaut champions (specifically marksmen and some assassins) were struggling to make as great of an impact on the fighting half of the game due to the Juggernaut update, the armor update, the AP buff/rebalance update, and how the current meta has basically made it so that you most likely have a true or a %health scaling damage dealing top laner and/or jungler in every game (these destroy marksmen with low health pools. ex: fiora, she destroys most marksmen since she can chase them, null their cc, and hit them for true damage if they don't have a kit built around maneuvering like tristana does). So yeah, ADC(Marksmen) needed a little boost to become more relevant again in fights and not just be there to take towers quickly.

(they also stated that they were open to readjustments in necessary)

I don't understand why they keep nerfing Aegis? It feels like we don't have enough magic resist items in the game as it is and they keep nerfing this ONE support item we can use to give magic resist to our team. If they want to make it worthless they did it the last nerfing cycle.
