@Meddler : Questions about the New Guinsoo

Beuhlakor·4/19/2016, 9:24:01 PM·5 votes·4,525 views

I have 2 questions about the new Guinsoo :

  1. The tooltip says that MELEE attacks grant 1 stack. Does it mean that RANGED attacks grant 0 stack ? I'm confused about the sentence.

  2. About the passive "Guinsoo Rage" : does it work like the Phantom Hit of the live Sated Devourer ? I want to know if it means that Vayne's W will proc every 2 hit (same for Jax, Aatrox and so on). I'm also confused about this one. I know that Xin Zhao's W critical strike is an "on-attack" effect but according to many wikia, Vayne's W, Jax's R and Aatrox's W are "on-hit" effects.

Ok, I got a friend who has a PBE account and he tested quickly everything regarding Guinsoo in a custom game :

  1. Ranged attacks and melee attacks both grant 1 stack.

  2. "Guinsoo Rage" passive works EXACTLY like the live Sated Devourer. It means that Jax Vayne Aatrox will proc every 2 AA instead of every 3 AA.

  3. I'm sorry Riot, but are you OUT OF YOUR MIND ? It is also going to push Kayle and Kindred back to their "BAN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE" status, back when Sated Devourer was working for every ranged AA.

Oops, that should just read attacks at this point, it's one stack for both ranged and melee.

The passive works just like the current Devourer double hit one. We believe it should be much more balanceable on a more expensive item that's gated behind a build up.

Can we just revert all the messy changes since preseason or delete this item entirely.

Hey, i already asked, but i don't know if it was seen Is there any change in the phantom hit? I tried to build it on Azir on PBE but it seems the interaction with sand soldier is removed, is it normal?
