Congratulations Rito... (not really) It will now be pointless to buy infinity edge on Ashe

Infinity edge's passive crit damage increase will no longer increases Ashe's damage. The reason they removed her crit damage from her passive is because the way she currently is before patch 5.22 she would have 15% free lifesteal and near permanent attack speed increase for free at level 1 because of the Keystone mastery Warlords Bloodlust. Meanwhile Trydamere and Yasuo will be laughing straight to the bank with this mastery... What a surprise, the Riot dev team fails horrendously again.

The equation is exactly the same. It just isn't called crit damage.

The 15% lifesteal has 2 second cooldown.

Let me clarify Ashe will still do bonus damage like she used to with her passive however it will no longer be considered critical damage and will no longer be affected by Infinity Edge's passive.

She gets extra slow or something, doesn't she? /shrug There's still not an alternative way to build her.

STAY FROSTY: Ashe's Critical Strikes deal 1.0 of her total attack damage (instead of 2.0 total attack damage), but double the effectiveness of Frost Shot. Volley CRIT AND CHILL?Now automatically critically strikes against champions for the purposes of Frost Shot's slow

She is effectively the lowest damage ADC now. Yes, her volley will always have a 50% slow, but I have no idea what items you would build on her. Crit seems relatively worthless. Possibly BORK/TF? Just the raw AD items? Does IE increase the slow % to 75%?
