Can you do something about Gunblade or Ezreal?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJxSEv4feV8 Gunblade is an item that has no place in this game, really. Ezreal is already building gunblade in some games right now, and with BORK nerf he might build it some more

point being?

it's dumb... point and click INSTANT 50% slow and burst

It makes him so frontloaded with E he's almost an assassin, and what's more it slows you for 2 seconds not allowing you to dodge any of his skillshots

Please remove this item and compensate buff kata/akali. If not, fix this "drain tanking hybrid burst slow item"

God forbid Ezreal carve out a new niche when his build is gutted for no reason...

Double tear was a very late game build where Ezreal fell off. It's like current Kayle. If you didn't end the game before he got two tears farmed then that's YOUR fault.

"Very late game" 30 minutes in? He got seraph 3rd item and he was an assassin/poke/tank with 65 armor from iceborn and a HUGE shield from the 2500 mana you got from the 3 items.

you do know that the seraph shield is based on current mana right? also... tank? in that clip he got one kill on a 25% HP Cass and then barely did anything else other than die. That clip is such a poor example as to why anything about Ezreal needs to change since he killed an overextended Cass. He tickled everyone else with his Qs. Elise was the one doing all the damage in that clip so... for an assassin he did next to nothing other than kill a target that was already more than half-way dead. For a poking champion his poke barely did anything and for him being a tank he still took quite a bit of damage since he has no HP whatsoever to backup that armor.

The cass was around 40% hp and he reduced that to 0% in the space of 0.1 sec thanks to the fun item that is gunblade

"he didn't do damage" yet a single AA+Q removed half of ashe's hp, imagine if his E actually hit her

oh noes! he hit a squishy champion and did damage to her! I can do the exact same thing with Bard just from building item 3285

No you can't And if you can, it's not going to be instant combined with a dash and It's not going to make you having a point and click slow for your skillshots

also not going to synergise as hard as gunblade with ezreal's scalings

yes I can, build it on Bard and watch people's HP disappear with just Q + auto. It's not going to one shot them but it's going to take away a stupid chunk of HP. If Ezreal is dashing towards you that is when you ENGAGE AND PUNISH him since he just used his one escape to deal more damage. He can build item 3025 all he wants, it's not going to help him much. You can keep hating on the item all you want it changes nothing. He killed a Cass that was already below 50% HP wow... that is so hard to do.... oh wait no it isn't. The he tickled everyone except the squishy Ashe and he didn't even killed her and still died to the Ashe. Oh noes! gunblade is so strong guys! it let's him kill low health targets!

I'm not talking about the clip I'm speaking from experience. In low diamond (d3) the champ was a fucking monster. His wq hit for upwards of 800 a pop, rarely did he drop to sub 50% mana with manaflow giving a bonus 250 and giving back missing Mana. Yes his q alone did nothing because he went pen boots and ap items after maramana with his q doing physical and not having an amazing scaling with ap. 65 armor even without hp makes him deceptively tanky with the seraph shield being around 2900 with Mana flow/double tear/iceborn that's without his base Mana as well, at half Mana without his base (idk his base mana) that is 1450 then 30% of that for seraph would be rivaling barrier with a lower CD.

I see, this new build is not cancerous at all and has counterplay

makes sense

Bad clip to back your sayings. Ez is 2 levels ahead of ashe. A bot lane fed their asses off in that game.

D357R0Y3RApr 3, 20191 votes

Ez was ahead in lvl because he had Teleportation

A bot lane fed their asses off in that game.

Ezreal fed more than Ashe, and sure he had 6 kills, but Ashe had 5 kills when that happened

you can use https://euw.op.gg/summoner/userName=lerougeetnoir to watch the timeline of the game

so, A champion slightly ahead is able to become an assassin and pop you out of nowhere with no counterplay

wtf...

BoRK nerf? You mean cutlass increased by 100g. Which applies to Gunblade too. You're intentionally spouting misinformation to complain about a non-issue.

I do agree Gunblade is a disgusting item but it's not going to become suddenly everywhere because it costs 100g more to buy one of its components.

D357R0Y3RApr 4, 20191 votes

No, Gunblade is getting -100 gold because of cutlass getting +100 gold

https://i.gyazo.com/691ef083a2977ad265ab37a7e2a680cd.png

so if bork is more expensive, and gunblade is the same, that would make people wanting to build gunblade MORE than BORK

and having a component being 100g more expensive is not going to fix how cancer it is and unhealthy
