So Why Is Riot Totally Gutting Runeglaive and Evelynn?

Is this not a horrible idea?

I mean, your taking what made the item good (The magic damage conversion), killing it, and then killing evelynn just because.

Like. w0t.

You guys steadied pace when it came to balancing cinderhulk, which resulted in it staying relevant, and keeping the champions that use it viable.

You fucked up with devourer. outright gutting it, and gutting alongside it. This forced everyone who would buy it to just buy warrior instead, and the ones who couldnt either went top or just didn't get played anymore.

Now the same thing is happening with runeglaive, except its not because of junglers, its because of midlaners. Even worse, your gutting a champion alongside the gutting of the item.

Can we get some insight on this? Would it not make more sense to do one or the other? I personally think removing the physical to magic conversion is bad either way, that's what makes the item viable. Sure, nerf the AoE, its just extra power tacked on, but the magic damage is important.
