Stormrazor [New item in testing with Marksman/AD item changes!]

AD increased from 55 to 65 Unique Passive effects changed:

  "UNIQUE Passive - Storm's Edge: 
   If you haven't attacked for 2 seconds, your next basic attack deals +50 damage (increased by your attack speed). 
   UNIQUE Passive: 
  When you apply Storm's Edge or critically strike, gain 8% attack speed for 5 seconds, stacking up to 5 times."

So Attack Speed champs are the only ones who want this item.

Riots love for MasterYi Yasuo and ADC

Or they're just pulling it away from assassins because nobody fucking wants Rengar to have an automatic crit.

Also, yeah. They're making it for attack speed champs. Bitching about that is like bitching that they made Rabadon's for AP champs.

This is a change for the positive. There's no more guaranteed item 3087 crits which cuts into a lot of adc burst.

lol this is riot we are talking about... what are the changes they won't break it...

i mean look look what their original idea was..

i didnt have to play a single game on pbe or play bruisers to know that would be broken as fuck, and yet the balance team managed to not only get that past the verbal brainstorming phase.. it got past internal testing.. and made it to pbe.

like honestly... its not very re-assuring.

its not just the person who "came up" with the idea. it's also the people who let it thru.

for example... there is no way in hell the jungle exp changes can go live or it will COMPLETELY RUIN THE JUNGLE, becuase it means junglers would have to be able to clear THREE MORE camps at lvl 2 (for a total of four camps) until they hit 3...

this basially just mean the enemy jungler is going to flat out take thier buff and run straight toward the enemy jungler who is going to be at low hp

and not only will complelty remove any jungler who cant clear 3 camps at lvl 2 without backing.

but junglers like Warwick who dont lose hp in the jungle, and how have absurdly strong lvl 2 are going to be even MORE broken

like there is zero way in hell ANYONE thought this change thru.

They basically killed infinity edge critical chance, they removed crit from essence reaver and now the pseudo crit is no more ? So only Zeal give critical strike now ? What the hell... The tooltip state ''When you apply Storm's Edge or critically strike, gain 8% attack speed for 5 seconds, stacking up to 5 times'' ... Since only Zeal item provide critical strike, and IE will be second to get double crit, nobody will buy this item. Typical ADC build after the patch will be item 3087 / item 3085 / item 3046 into item 3031 with item 3006 item 3036 or item 3033 item 3072 with another zeal item... Nobody will buy this item as it won't fit in their build.

You now reach 100% crit with three items, and deal 20% true damage with every auto as an ADC.

Reaching 100% critical strike was already the case with 3 item, what bother me is the stupid add of true damage.. like true damage isn't obnoxious to deal with.

Somehow I am glad they made Stormrazor unique, yet sad in another way

this should be infinity edges passive instead of the true damage conversion.

2 Zeal item + IE + Rageblade could be a bit too much dps imo.

then it can still get tuned down. the true damage conversion is shit. it invalidates % damage reduction abilities in fighter and tanks kits that are supposed to grant short windowed resilience. in a lot of cases, these abilities are hooks for skill expression in these champions kits.

tbh im becoming convinced that riot is starting to not care about the game and tbh i cant blame em they made thier money

You all complained about ADCs all day, so they finally got around to fixing the issue and giving non late game ADCs proper scaling options to be viable again after riot repeatedly nerfed them over the course of a year or so.

I love how I get down voted while all the other Stormrazer threads are up voted. I didnt say I wanted what it was before or that it was not broken. Im just not happy that its not going to be an item to build on none attack speed champions. I liked that it was something to build on OTHER AD champions.
