Bruiser vs Skirmisher Itemization- Too Many Overlaps

Meep Man··1 votes·441 views

Anyone else feel like Bruisers will always be limited in their itemization due to Skirmishers being able to use and abuse many of their options? Frozen Mallet for example. Moderately healthy on a champion with no gap closers and has to simply walk up to someone. However, when you put on a mobile sustained damage dealer, it becomes an issue. It also limits future potential items since every stat that gives both AD and Health meant for Bruisers has a high chance of being used by Skirmishers as well.

Frozen Mallet is just a badly designed item that doesn't really belong in the game. Itemization into permaslow is inherently problematic, no matter who has it.

Really every item that gives AD is going to have class overlap. It's not a bad thing per se. AD champions span every class and role (except supports) so there can't possibly be specialized itemization for them all that isn't potentially used as well by others.
