About Hail of Blades

  • A new B.F. upgrade, Stormrazor, that makes your first attacks in combat more impactful.
  • A Domination keystone, Hail of Blades, with similar goals as Stormrazor

So instead of making Dark Harvest a usable Keystone outside of ARAM, you're going to make a new one that does what Dark Harvest is supposed to do but better?

We don't even know what HoB does yet. Harvest is intended to be used on Junglers that power farm for 20 minutes, like Kayn pre-buffs or Mister Yen. Especially Mister, since it resets when you kill champions and his potential for Pentakills is huge, which Harvest amplifies better than any other Keystone (Electrocute won't proc twice, Aery isn't intended for carries, and PtA wont help if youre destroying someone in a single Q or only one or two autos. Hell even Conqueror's effectiveness is lower than similar carries since Yi has True damage inherent to his kit.

Axes said HoB was supposed to be a burst of attack speed at the start of the fight, so it's more comparable to Lethal Tempo than it is to Dark Harvest.

According to a Rioter, it will be a AS steroid upon entering combat.

Specifically for a set amount of attacks, like Jayce’s AS steroid.

I think his critism still stands just replace the words dark harvest with lethal tempo.

Who is Mister Yen?

Pretty old nickname for MasterYi, or at least one I see a few people use every so often.

To the other replies; yeah now that I've seen HoB's effect it really is just "Lethal Tempo but not garbage" and I'd think even [slayer-jinx-catface] would rather have this + Precision secondaries than LT + Domination secondaries

Although I can't seem to find the exact post now, I believe it was stated that "After attacking a champion, gain 50-100% attack speed for your next 3 basic attacks. Must be 1.5 seconds between basic attacks or this effect ends. Can exceed the attack speed cap."

TBH, I'd be fine with them removing Dark Harvest. Finally can enjoy most of my aram matches again.

They're never going to situate adding/removing runes around ARAM. ARAM isn't where they make their money
