ADs have too much access to CDR.

edit: title meant to ready "ADs have too much access to CDR" not AD. That would be just stupid.

Whether it is from the actual AD items or the 'tank' items that every fighter, juggernaut, tank, or whatever buy it's become a problem. AP's have had naturally high cool downs because they had access to more cool down.

With Riot making item and their mother item having CD it's really become a problem for game health when it comes to AD vs AP. AP's rely on their abilities. AD's rely on their abilities and basics for follow up.

So please explain to me why it is okay for someone like Wukong to max CDR with EVERY item benefitting him better than I could as Zyra.

Example being: Oh shit, the enemy has a lot of damage/poke. Wukong builds BC (why not, he can stealth and initiate and pretty kill anyone because of his ult+BC), then Spirit Visage (because this item is literally the best defensive MR item in the game), and then close out your tank build with Warmogs.

What do I have? Oh, they're building defensive. Great, I'll do no damage unless I build enough CDR to constantly poke them or rush Void Staff. But wait, I can only really build Morello for an instant 20% which has a passive that is useless to me unlike BC which is perfect for anyone who deals physical damage on abilities.

I can choose to get abyssal, but that isn't saving me from the AD Damage Wukong provides. I can buy Rod of Ages, but I won't have resistances or cdr. I can get Zhonyas, but the AP is horrible now and the cool down is longer (so extremely situational buy now) and the armor gets negated by the BC anyway.

So what options do I have as an AP against someone who has universal choices?

Far as I see it, the AP builds are much more balanced because you actually have to choose what is beneficial for yourself or your team. There are literally no bad AD choices.

In closing: Please remove ALL CDR from offensive items AD's can buy and leave it on the defensive items. Or remove it from the defensive items. Why does Spirit Visage need to build out of kindlegem when it could build out of giant's belt and provide less AP and more health? I don't understand the item balance in this game but I certainly feel gilted by playing AP.
