Does Rageblade/nashors need some love?

Currently, only about 3 or 4 champs builds nashors tooth/rageblade. Teemo Diana Kayle Out of 133 champs, that a very small pool.

I think riot needs to look into those items because you can't justify 2 items that are only used by 3 maybe 4 champs.

That indicates that something is wrong where the items are too weak or too strong on a few champs.

In your opinion, do those items need some love?

Rage blade already got plenty of love with the flat 25% attack speed buff tacked on at zero stacks. It's actually a DAMN good item.

I would like it if they just released more champions that make use of it instead of buffing it. who was the last Hybrid champion we got?

Rageblade is just fine as it is imo Like, Yi can proc true damage twice... I play Rammus all the time and whenever Yi is on the enemy team, I just get melted regardless of stacking tons of armor when the only item he needs to kill me is rageblade... those true damage procs are pretty OP... He doesn't even need armor pen items either...

Both items are very niche. Nashor's is for people who want AS and AP from the same items, meaning champions who have good AP scaling, especially on effects that buff their auto-attacks. In addition, a good Nashor's user benefits from CdR and further AP, as Nashor's on-hit only gets really powerful with further AP purchases. Rageblade is for champions who like sustained fights and a way to boost their kit-intrinsic on-hit effects. Ideally, a Rageblade user will make use of AP in his kit, as well - or even better on his auto-attacks.

Also, the last changes both items received were buffs, and substantial ones at that. Rageblade got 25% AS that is always active on 6.23, whereas Nashor's got its AP increased by 20 with the changes in both patch 5.13 and 5.22.
