How to counter Duskblade

Pick two based on champion - item 3026 item 3047 item 3157

You now take ~10-70 (Lower end for zhonya's, higher for GA) more damage than old duskblade IF they go a full armor pen route. If they don't go full pen you are taking similiar to LESS damage.

I would suggest Tabi after first item and GA like 3rd.

Maybe I should pass on the crit build and go to the frozen mallet and black cleaver full ad build?

Cause usually I go 2 crit items and than IE (boots somewhere in between) now my IE will be my 5th item (after GA), maybe it's better to go IE after 1 crit item? I have no idea :/ but usually I feel power spike after 2 crit items and IE (sometimes I need LS also..)

You can do it however it works for you, I would do IE - Tabi - Zeal item - GA personally.

Armor doesn't counter physical damage since when?

you need to move out of sight before you get oneshotted .-. i mean COMPLETELY move out of sight! from minions to wards and opponents!

I have yet to be one shot by a duskblade, the closest I came was a 14-4 graves who could e auto q auto r for ~80% of my health with item 3047 item 1031

you obviously havent met khazix or rengar or vayne with duskblade .-. the problem lies early to mid, these items aren't available yet, and no way anyone is gonna buy that over damage O.o, unless you play a tank.

I've done it plenty, tabi after first item, ga after second. LLstyles the zed main got dumpstered by a Talon who was smart enough to do this exact thing last night. Talon was running around one comboing the other lethality users while he would take ~50% hp from a full zed combo.

that picture means nothing O.o it could be talon got fed earlier on other champs or simply played better, but it doesn't matter now anymore, since duskblade got nerfed.

You can literally watch the game

xD I love you guys -30 damage upon buying the item at level 7 (early) and you think that made a difference.
