I miss some of the old items a whole lot
Zephyr used to be that speedy item that people bought when they wanted to be fast as hell. It was perfect on champs like Irelia and Udyr, to name a few. Then they removed it entirely.
Trinity Force used to be that universal item that mostly anyone could find a use for, but the crit made it an excellent alternative crit item (meaning, there were more options to what crit items you bought) for champs like Gangplank, Talon and Garen to abuse. Then they changed it into Zephyr 2.0, where the only people that truly benefit off of it are tanky bruiser champs with high base AD.
Sword of the Divine used to be that cheap item that wasn't very good, but had a phenomenal active. It had its use as an emergency backup item to dissuade ganks, something that's a big problem today. Then they tore it apart, put a weakened version of the active on Zeke's Harbinger (a support item), and told everyone that they were trying to stray away from active-reliant items.
>Stray away from active-reliant items is what Riot told us. When was the last time you complained about a mage-assassin, and diin't get flooded with "Buy a QSS xDDDDD" comments?
