Riot, please stop making things that make autos oneshot.

It's just annoying that certain champions just take Dark Harvest and buy shit like for example and just auto you for a lot of your health. I just think there are enough items and effects in the game that boil down to 'your next auto does more damage' and every one that gets added just further pushes these champions into the 'one auto, one kill' territory, and that's just not fun to be on the receiving end of. I think it's good that Dark Harvest is getting reworked though, but I think that Riot just needs to be more conservative with adding items, runes, and effects that give autos burst damage.

How about you build a defensive item or two?

Yeah, surely an Ashe needs a Thornmail to go with her non-existent damage build...It also hardly matters vs someone like Nidalee or Khazix

Nidalee ???

i mean sure she can burst you 100/0 just like any other assassin.

but she needs to land the spear first, no other assassin in the game has to land a skillshot before they can kill you. and generally it has to be a long ranged skillshot or you wont even be in execute range.

im not remotely saying she cant "100/0 you" she CERTAINLY can.. but she needs to land a skillshot first.. and she also isn't going to pounce in if your'e grouped.

imo nidalee has the most counterplay out of any assassin because of this...

becuase there are few big requirements before u can 100/0 somone.

the spear needs to land so u can pounce with empowered pounce to them and have the empowered takedown
they need to be low enough for takedown to kill them. if nidalee is fed enough this can be done without landing a spear but that is VERY rare
the enemy has to be in a postion she can pounce to them.. unlike champs like ,, if nid goes in... she is stuck there for a minimum of 1.5 seconds at at lvl 16 with a full pounce reset and 45% cdr. this means u may kill the target.. even if u decide to go in... if they have other teammates besides them.. in the BEST case senario... your stuck there for 1.5 second, and have no abilities for 3 seconds. generally that means if there is anyone else near them... u dont go in.

again im not goign to pretend nidalee is incapable of 100/0ing squishies.. she is VERY much able to do so..

but... u have warning... u have reaction time, and simply staying near an ally is normally a good enough deterrent unless your both low. especially if that ally has a form of hard CC.

Frozen heart's passive isn't strong enough to matter, omen doesn't provide enough armor for it's passive to work significantly, and thornmail is too expensive for how little threat it provides.
