Ok, so - if everyone agrees that item 3095 is just too powerful - and people like MissFortune Jhin once they have it become GOD - why is it still here?

I mean, i have run games where i bought it on DrMundo and Nautilus and simply wreaked face because of the attack abilities, Under the current.."tanks are too op, so we bought in item 3095 " idea - this item simply makes tanks/bruisers that much more powerful -

On a more serious note -- it is simply way to powerful - people been saying it since it came out - it needs either a much higher gold cost to make it a mid/late game item - so it can't be rushed - or simply remove it entirely. I know im raining on your adc parade. And for that I am really sorry. I do not have issue with the stats of it, or even the movemet speed after crit.. its the "auto crit" feature i find stupid

Rather then build crit chance I can simply but this and negate all the items i used to have to get in order to crit - why WOULDN'T you buy it? Couple that with the "chase down" movement speed, and oh look you ran, i get a free crit again! -

Is there counter play - yes - let them shoot a minion and dive them, however with movement speed they will get away dive in and hope that first hit does not 1/2 HP you so you can kill them before they kill you Hope your assassin gets the kill after you died lowering there hp Prayer - (this seems to be the counter-play used most often)

Now I understand that Riot must "cater" a bit to the higher ELO of gameplay, where I am sure groups like TSM - Fanatic - Could 9 ect have indeed found ways to counter play item 3095 - I am sure even in Plat / maybe Diamond Tier play its the same - however for anyone under that tier of play its nearly game breaking to watch the ADC simply snowball to hell once you have it -

Maybe its because in Watching the VOD's you dont see a lot of crazy "out for blood" attacks - they farm and build and farm and build only going in on "ganks" from jungle, or "ganks" using teleport -- rare to see them simply go in and give up a creep kill for a pot shot free crit on the other adc - its a mutual respect thing i guess - no idea. I agree late game item 3095 is not half as "broken" as it is early because everyone rushes it.

Anywho - just my observation and opinions and wonderings - maybe they have not removed it because they like the mystery - maybe its because they love Jhin so much they just want him to buy one item and snowball 95% of the time. Next will be a item that lets Dark Harvest crit for x3 dmg if the basic attack that triggers it crits - maybe a rune that does that - yea, - (this is a joke, i do not mean it seriously - the DH part)

Because worlds isn't over yet? Is it? I'm actually not sure, I still have the worlds quests... did someone win?

Anyway they don't want to nerf anything before the end of worlds, historically.

My god, I hope so - I mean, its just gotten outta hand, when a Jhin with item 3095 item 3094 item 1038 can just about drop a Sion with item 3143 and item 3047 + item 3083 - that is a issue. (by just about, i do not mean in a fight, I mean in a "trade" - he took like 2 shots and ran like hell - and i was at prolly 1/4-1/2 hp even after my sheild

Another and most likely superior alternative, is buff item 3143 - rather then -20% to crit, (which means they only do 140% ad- woohoo) have it negate a crit every 4 seconds - that means that a stormrazor COULD still crit, as well as two people could focus down a tank, like its supposed to be. And if they actually build Crit chance after Razor - ( I know this does not effect Jhin ) - they can still crit

As for Worlds I think they are on there final rounds of games, I have not looked in a while, but thanks for commenting!
