@Riot, what happened to the Randuin Omen changes?

You were going to make it way more of a fighter item because you changed the active to give 15% attack speed per champion hit, which i thought was an awesome change since Tanks prefer frozen heart anyway, and fighters really are outclassed by tanks right now.

Why was this change reverted? I don't see any context on this

FH is only good for tanks with mana, and it doesn't provide as many defensive stats as Rand's. The active slow nova is also really handy for a lot of tanks that struggle with mobility issues, so I don't see it as being any less useful for tanks. Now, imagine Volibear with more Attack speed than he already gets in his build, he'd be outperforming ADCs in no time. The tank meta is strong atm, so Riot really shouldn't add too much power to tank items as of now, that'll just lead to more individual champion nerfs to make them balanced with the items.

The instant i saw that change i thought to myself i would be building randuins way more frequently.

It frankly made the item op. I was picturing using it with black cleaver and iceborn gauntlet into a full tank build. No need to build AS to apply black cleaver stacks when i can just proc randuins. I still do that build anyways and find it strong, so buffing it sounds really OP.
