How come AD assassins get hexdrinker while AP mids get jack shit?

Broloft··5 votes·708 views

You're telling me to rush some 1200 gold item that barely helps with the AD burst while solving absolutely none of my mana problems? Yeh that 40 armor is gonna help with the Zed who never runs oom and keeps chunking me with shurikens all laning phase. That 40 armor is really gonna put a dent in that Talon's instantaneous 600 damage combo. Meanwhile the AD assassins rush hexdrinker and become unburstable every 90 seconds, while AP mids are afraid of using 2 spells to retaliate in fear of running oom.

RedMercy needs to stop making videos, as soon as he posts a build, people start playing with it and subsequent QQ results...

You get the best active in the game on an item that also gives armor and a high amount of AP.

Plz.

cough Poor sheep. You NEVER rush zhonyas. EVER. its not a useful item aside from its active and AP; its always a second item at best and fourth at worst.

Yes, 40 Armor does help. It's just that most people will have armor pen runes, so basically a fk you since they'll pretty much be doing true damage at lvl 1.

Also, Talon has serious mana problems. If he spams W. So... no he doesn't have mana problems.

Well, AD assassins should have more mana problems than AP, since they'll do more dmg without mana. Well, looks like fk design then.

I hate that mecurial semitar is a thing and yet QSS provides nothing for AP and feels like a wasted item slot in comparison to banshees. Rito hates the APs :(
