@Rioter About the new Thornmail and Rammus

Why doesn't it count his W as bonus armor for the damage it reflects? Is this just something programmed for active armor steroids or is this a glitch?

Temporary Armor bonuses like Rammus's W do work with Thornmail. The tooltip on Thornmail however only gets refreshed every so often, so while the actual damage being dealt will change immediately the number shown on mouseover will take a while to change (that's done since it's an easy way to very slightly reduce server load and bandwidth used). You can see the same effect in action after buying a new Armor item, as the tooltip on Thornmail will sometimes take a few seconds to change to the correct new value.

well alistar can dual anyone and i mean anyone with a couple thormails once he is level six and has rhonduins and 1 or 2 thornmails since the damage reflect applies before you take the damage so its filtered through thornmail and then his ult wich makes your opponent do more damage to themselves than they do to you
