So lets talk about Guinsoo's Rageblade

So. Guinsoo's Rageblade. Have you seen one of these lately? Or, probably a better question, have you been absolutely destroyed by a Jax, a Tryndamere, or a Master Yi lately? Yes? Then you have probably seen Guinsoo's Rageblade.

For those who don't know what it does, Guinsoo's Rageblade is a hybrid item, giving 30 AD and 40 AP, and it adds 3 AD and 4 AP , as well as increase your attack speed by 8% for 5 seconds for every stack you get on the item. How do you get stacks, you wonder? You go up to someone, and smack them. That is it. It can hold up to 8 stacks, which might sound like quite a few hits, but you get two stacks if you are melee, and so getting all eight stacks, which increases your AD by 24, and your AP by 32, as well as your attack speed by 64%. 64%! That is more than a Rapid Firecannon and a Statikk Shiv put together. AND GUINSOO'S RAGEBLADE ONLY COSTS 2800 GOLD! Also, when you get to 8 stacks, you get a passive that is similar to the Ravenous Hydra's Cleave passive. It is pretty nice for wave clear, and useful for teamfights, but it honestly, it does 20 + 15% of bonus ad and 7.5% of AP, so it is just a little chip damage at best.

Now, it is time for the reason I made this thread. This single item can make Jax an absolute beast. He goes from a pretty strong fighterthat can do well against AA heavy fighters, to someone who can 1v2 with ease. Guinsoo's Rageblade is the real weapon Jax was talking about. So far, all I have done was complain, but now, it is time to brainstorm some ideas for making Guisoo's Rageblade into Guinsoo's NotSoRageEnducingBlade. Honestly, I do quite like the passive Guinsoo's Rage, which makes the Hydra effect I talked about. That seems like a pretty nice creep clear, good for waves and monster camps. However, the bonus attack speed is what I think makes it so strong. A bonus 64% AS increase on suck a cheap item, along with the bonus AD and AP that comes along with it makes Guinsoo's Rageblade an item worthy of a nerf. If the attack speed is removed, then you still get a total of 54 AD, 72 AP, and a great wave clear tool, for only 2800. If Guinsoo's Rageblade seems a bit weak without any attack speed, then maybe have it so that Guinsoo's Rage grants some attack speed at well. Maybe something more balanced like 20%. Just not the 64% AS monster that it is now. So, now, what do you think about the Rageblade? Is there a different way to nerf its power without making it useless? I want to hear brainstorming.
