But like real talk, edge of night needs to be nerfed

God help any immobile ap mage right now, with Edge being so good and not being a bad pick on plenty of slayers/assassins (classes that are inherently going to have an advantage over mages.) being able to survive characters like is a laughable idea. its not even mages that get fucked by this either. champions like who do benefit from the item also have to live in a world with every assassin and their mother not giving a fuck about cc. This item gives defensive stats, utility, and offensive stats, while having a very low CD on the active, who allows this to be a thing? Who thought this would be a good idea?

pick wukong mid.

item 3155 item 3111 item 3814 literally just dive them. more than enough damage, and "god mode enabled" survivability.

It's being build on 4-5+ champs per game in the LCS in many games.

Yup. Totally fair and balanced.

It also has really strange interactions with some DoTs that make it even better against certain mages who can't pop the shield before dropping CC. Swain's Q, Anivia's R, Cass's W, and I'm sure several other DoTs don't break the shield, which makes it harder or impossible for them to combo against EoN.

Using the active breaks Evelynn's camo.

That's bullshit, it's literally called "Edge of Night" and the Nightstalker character can't use it? WTF?

Hahaha, I loved when this came out and the popular opinion was that it was trash( not saying that it was your opinion)..Now that they've buffed the stats, you get real stats with your free, broken Banshee's Veil. I loved this on Zed in the last patch, but unfortunately now its going to get nerfed/destroyed from the item list because it's a ridiculously strong item.

Mages need buff instantly after one patch where ad assassins are told to deal with it for years ok there buddy

Made a thread on this. Alot of people agree. ITs busted. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/R3BH4ouh-can-we-talk-about-edge-of-night-and-why-its-fucking-busted-af

The items active is waaay to short a cooldown... pre buff it was a sleeper op but now everyones abusing it.

Not to be a dick but. OH REALLY, WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT. IM PRETTY SURE THE ENTIRETY OF THE BOARDS COMMUNITY DIDNT KNOW THAT THIS ITEM WAS STRONG AND META.

Assassins are supposed to kill mages. That's the risk of picking a Mage, and the reward is you have longer range and more AOE.

The point here is that everyone knows EoN is currently strong. And the point is to understand that Riot can't snap their fingers and nerf the item, based on the opinion of the upvoted boards posts about EoN.

EoN should be nerfed meaningfully and that MEANS that the item should still feel usable after the nerfs. And you can't do meaningful things if you want to go through a brick wall with your head first.

Edge feels way too strong in duels but way too shit in teamfights. Honestly, I wish I could just have some %movespeed or CDR instead of that shield.
