How I Would Change Duskblade

Right now, I think duskblade is just a bad design.

• Adding damage on a lethality item makes sense, but right now it's all funneled on an auto attack, which just adds burst to any champion who takes it without them necessarily being an assassin.
• It's also basically adding point and click damage without even needing to press an active item, that can also be used many times in a fight if you can get out of vision for a second.

I would change it like this: UNIQUE Passive - Nightstalker: After being unseen for at least 1 second, your next basic attack against an enemy champion deals 30 - 200 bonus physical damage and slows them by 99% for 0.25 seconds. Ranged basic attacks do not apply the slow. (Lasts for 5 seconds after being seen by an enemy champion). ----> UNIQUE Passive - Nightstalker: After being unseen for at least 1 second, gain (X lethality and/or X attack damage). Your next basic attack against an enemy champion also slows them by 99% for 0.25 seconds. Ranged basic attacks do not apply the slow. (Lasts for 5 seconds after being seen by an enemy champion).

• This would shift some damage into the champions abilities (for example, Zed's Q) instead of the auto attack, while keeping the slow.
• This could also help against bruisers.
• The lethality/AD number(s) and the duration could be changed if this ends up too weak or too strong.
• A visual indicator could be added.
