Riot instead of adding Stormrazor, why not add back some of the removed Marksman items?
The release of Stormrazor will be like the day when Duskblade was changed during patch V7.14. EVERYONE is going to be abusing this item because of free Critical Strike, even those who don't use Critical Strike.
Why not bring back the removed items instead? That were actually really healthy as well.

(Needs a new additional passive since it was an item for Twisted Treeline specifically)
Ofcourse I see that some of these items would have to have some stats tweaked a bit. But why were these items removed? I can see them being a more healthy alternative instead of Stormrazor because it looks like just another excuse to buff Assassins even more as others have said it as well.
