The whole new korean meta with stuff like these are small armor penetration items,

Wouldnt (or any shiv or phantom dancer), / give them the actual penetration + insane damage they need

I mean 70(IE)+75(BT)+50 (LD) + 50 (BC) +Base damage ~ 110 = 345

Crit chance 50%

Crit damage = 345 X2 = 690

Infinity edge bonus = 345, Total 1035 50% of the time (maybe throw some crit runes in there idk)

Plus 30% armor penetration black cleaver, and 45% bonus armor penetration from LW items ?

It has to do with power spikes. item 3142 Is way better than item 3031 as a first item. They dont have much armor so will do way more than early game not even including the active that gives you attack speed and movement speed.

on a full built in the late, yes, but the flat pen items are incredible strong in the early game if rushed, especially for caster type of carries. If you rush yomuu's, your opponents will hardly have more than 60 armor, so it cuts through 33%, and unlike bc doesn't need stacks for that, while giving more ad than other arpen items aswell as the cdr and the active. And since the game currently is so focused on earlygame and snowballing, item builts that have early powerspikes are more relevant. Also, bc and lw stack multiplicative, if not worse, and and LW only works vs bonus armor, so it gives little vs squishys.

And the korean built is more item 3142 item 3071 item 3147 --- , item 3156 is only situational if you want the burst-protection.

Sure, that build will be great when it's finished. Problem is, that Youmu's BC AD carry is going to get his armor penetration earlier than you and your IE will, and he'll take that advantage and use it to grind your face into the dirt.

A crit based build will do more damage in a 6 item build, but I'm not playing around what will give me the best 6 item build. I'm playing around what will win me the game, and being able to actually fight with my first item instead of being completely pathethic is going to make the difference between me winning and me getting pounded too hard to make a difference.

As an ADC i try to make a good medium out of the items, however at the sacrifice fo survivability (Which is what an ADC does..)

item 3142 item 3006 item 3071 item 3085 item 3031 Last item is situational.

Ghostblade is a great start item We're all squishy down here and the attack and move speed granted by the item could help secure a kill a little easier than the RNG on item 3031

But why cleaver and Runnans? You see Runnans spreads the cleave passive, especially if your playing an ADC that can directly abuse it. Jinx Caitlyn Ashe Twitch and use all that raw damage.

IE self-explanatory, 50% crit isn't something to spit at You will still crit quite often. But as I said this build leaves out Lifesteal which for an adc is usually the only way of sustain. If their team has only one tank you could opt-out of a LW item as you have enough armor pen as well as % armor pen... and get a item 3072 but if they're thank heavy get a item 3033 and if their team is FULL AD OR AP item 3156 item 3025 item 3053 Will give you damage and survivability.
