i have a crazy idea... get rid of upfront burst from runes/ items

how about we get rid of the shit like that adds damage to this game for no reason

we don't need shit that "gives X for doing Y"

like electrocute.. dark harvest

masteries are supposed to be like

http://abccbaandy.github.io/league-S4mastery-calc/

not "do this and and have some magical lightning drop for they sky that does 500 damage" that is the issue with this game

and then it rid of items like item 3147 which give guaranteed upfront burst for doing a nothing

and in item 3095 case LITERALLY nothing for 3 second.. like come on

also.. i have played for nearly six years.. i started in season 3, item 3124 has NEVER been balanced... not once... literally... get over it.. and delete the item, your reworking Kayle anyways.. and she is the only champ that actually NEEDS it

does ne1 else remember item 3124 Nidalee top builds? don't worry, you wouldn't want to anyways.

riot has made a TON of improvements to the game... but the state of the actual GAMEPLAY is SHIT. and getting rid of upfront burst which serves no purpose... would make a HUGE difference

Idk how anyone could have ever thought “do more dmg for doing dmg” was a good concept.

I think the same. Burst ketstones and items make no sense. They are just making the game more qancerous. I had some games without those and they were actually fun. Removing them would help the game.

To be honest Duskblade isn't really a strong item damage wise anymore, not when you compare it to what it was like during it's rework release or when you realise the amount of times it was nerfed, it's mainly still strong because of it's Slow and the Damage only becomes somewhat noticeable during very later stages of the game.

Items like Stormrazor, Iceborn Gauntlet, Trinity Force are much stronger than Duskblade (coming from a somewhat Marksman Main).

Guinsoo's Rageblade is only really strong on a few champions that synergise with the Phantom On-Hit bonus.

But overall I do agree with majority of what you're saying.

the biggest issue with item 3147 atm is the vision denial, vision right now is way too limited, and with junglers no longer able to take item 3364 without dropping their ability to ward completely... ( which maybe is higher elos u can do, but in lower elos.. if i don't ward there arn't going to be any wards)

thats the thing i hated most when they deleted trackers knife.. they specifically stated.

in higher elos this items allows too much vision.. and no one in lower elos buy it anyways and im like.

THE HELL WE DON'T!! make some jungler dont but i for one like having at last TWO WARDS on the ENTIRE freaking map.

and now i cant get trackers, and i can't buy item 3147 because its AD.

but its donest matter, even thought he AD damage proc on dusk isnt as much of an issue anymore.. the item still is. and like item 3095 it should never have been made

NONE of which need it to be viable... Kaisa is good enough without it, and probably need to be toned down anyways, and i have PLAYED in meta where those other 4 didn't build it, Kayle is the only champion that NEEDS it. the rest of them have other perfectly viable builds.

I hardly think the problem is items/runes and more just new champs/reworks having completely overloaded kits. There are a few older champs who hold up today, but the vast majority of old champs are mechanically useless.

complaining about item 3147 when item 3146 is WAY better

You need to learn how certain champs use certain items....

Dusblade is an AD item. Gunblade is AP.

I'm not against duskblade existing as an up front burst item for the up front burst class, but stormrazer is an abomination that needs to be removed. Adcs are supposed to be about sustained damage yet the crit items were dumpstered so hard the entire class is now dependent on that single item to stay relevant, it's absurd.
