Some people have started going crazy over the potential Trundle buff on the PBE where his Q's AD debuff is being doubled, but many people have brought it to the attention of me and others that while this sounds crazy, that it's actually not as huge a change as they think.

Here we see that although the AD of champions can be reduced on the stats, it does not actually effect their auto attack damage.

This is the kind of thing that should be mentioned in the tooltips for both Tryndamere and Trundle. It would help avoid another uproar like this and make it more clear how the abilities work. It's also a bit of a trap as they are worded now because someone could go into a fight thinking they'll be able to make a whole team do a lot less damage (More so Tryn than Trundle) only to find that they're still getting more hurt by auto attacks than they thought they would.

It reduces the enemy's AD by half of the AD given to Trundle, what's so hard to understand about it? As for the Orianna thing, caps exist on everything except damage gained. Armor, MR, movement speed, and AD/AP all have caps. just because a stat hits - whatever, it still gets affected by the cap.

Wait I don't understand why Trundle's Q doesn't lower their aa damage? I've played lots of games as Trundle and did not know this.
