About press the attack.

It's too similar to electrocute. It's not a bad rune, but I was hoping it would be more like fervor of battle it was called? Because the yellow tree is meant to be fore sustained DPS right?

well, electrocute procs on just any 3 hits, press the attack only applies to basic attacks, hence why its better for marksmen (they don't usually spam abilities to damage stuff)

edit: also electrocute has higher base damages scaling off ad AND ap, but press the attack increases damage dealt to a target by 12%, so depending on how many times you can attack the champ, one will outdamage the other.

in the case of electrocute, I also forgot to add the fact that it only procs the thunder ONCE, press the attack is as long as you can keep attacking them within 6 seconds

But wouldn't something like fervor be better? I mean marksman are all about sustained dps, not burst damage.

I’m not sure you get how PTA works.

Well, PTA is kinda like fervor in that it not only gives a burst of damage after 3 consecutive autos but gives increased damage from all sources after it - thus encouraging further sustained damage after PTA is procced.

The non condescending answer would of course come from riot themselves.
