Give them a bandaid that is as good as item 3147 which basically makes all AD assassins pretty good rn [sg-ezreal]

item 3146 or item 3152 are pretty close.

PennsNov 5, 20175 votes

item 3146 Is only really built by assassins with hybrid scalings (so 2), item 3152 is.. eh. Its good but it wasnt intended to be an assassin item and it doesnt give magic pen or anything assassins would actually want.

Can confirm since I'm Akali OTP. However you mainly go with Mage Items, and most of them are utter trash. Rylais used to be good, now its complete bs even on Aka, if I want HP I go Liandrys and enjoy the +15 Pen, that do absolutely nothing against someone with Mercs, Maw and Adaptive/Spirit. And I didn't even start with Support items yet.

Whenever you are ahead item 3146 is viable if not the best choice, it is pretty much mandatory on 3 of the ap assassins. item 3152 is pretty much a staple on a few of the ap burst champion and is viable on any of them.

I legit build gunblade on ahri and lb who do significantly more damage with it than actual ap items

Hell a bandaid like dusk would probably be the fix we need. It worked for the AD ones so why not. If riot makes an item that is melee only for melee ap assassins it would probably help them a ton. I mostly play AD but I would love to have the ap melee assassins be stronger too.

Also buff ad assassins. Here's a list of absolutely garbage assassins in higher elo (plat 3) -Talon -assassin kayn -rengar -shaco (unless he's built tank or ap) All these tank like champions are out damaging assassins. WW outdamages assassins WITH fuckin lifesteal.

WW isn't a tank, but a diver. They are assassins with more durability, but no way out of fights. They should be doing similar levels of damage to assassins.

Handy Sandy Nov 5, 20171 votes

all of those are fine in high elo

WW is a bruiser which counters the whole assassin class and you shouldn't be 1v1ing them in the first place. It's like a tank 1v1 an ADC that can kite or an assassin vs a mage. The class's counter will win in the perfect situation. You do not ever try to 1v1 Darius as Akali for example.

Darius is by far the easiest Top Matchup along with Gnar for me...just jump into his circle.

Talon is absolutely fuckin fine in high ELO.

In high ELO (plat+, using leagueofgraphs) NA, he's on a 53.7% WR and a 4.8% playrate and both numbers go higher at Diamond+ (59% WR!). Granted, a lot of the WR is backed up in his Top stats, but's doing fine Mid too. He boasts similar stats in Korean plat+ too, and he has a good PR in both regions, so it's not just mains playing him.

RainfallNov 5, 20171 votes

holy hell are we even playing the same game? did you just put the freaking 52%winrate in plat 53% in diamond talon as the first in your garbage assasin list? how delusional are you?

RainfallNov 5, 20171 votes

more like all apcs not just ap assasins.maybe buff ludens? +10 magic pene? +10%ap scaling on the passives damage

DauntNov 5, 20171 votes

Lol no. They don't need buffs. What they need to do is remove both gunblade and duskblade so they can actually start balancing assassins properly.

They won't remove Gunblade before the Akali rework, for the sole reason, that she is balanced around that Item.
