lets face it Rageblade is too strong

I know item 3124 was trash before its update but this has gotten out of hand.

this item has single handedly made FOUR champs MasterYi Jax XinZhao KogMaw MUST bans

grantedXinZhao also got a HUGE unneeded buff but that is an issue for another thread.

item 3124 is an item that give AP and AD built from two items item 1026 and item 1037 that both ONLY give either AP or AD into an item that is designed to be for auto attack champions

it should be BUILT on champions that WANT both AD and AP. right now its current passive is completely ignoring that.

it should be good on champs that have good AP and AD scaling champs that can go either way or hybrid. granted KogMaw already fits this category. but overall i feel the reworked item 3124 is just hurting the game. we could EASILY take FOUR champions off the instant-banned list if this item was fixed

and im not saying just lowering the attack speed, it needs to be redesigned again. turn it into something champs what have both AD and AP want. not champs that are attack speed and auto-attack based.

Try playing graves/quinn/teemo against rageblade comps. The blinds really do help counter it. Stuns work well too since this item has no defensive property. I know that's not saying much, but the gold that goes into rageblade is gold not spent on maw, mercurial scimitar, titanic, bloodthirster, or other items that help the user escape/survive teamfights.

while i agree with the blinds being a good counter. the issue of it providing no defense stats is pretty much negated by the fact that it single handedly makes up for so much damage they only NEED devourer and ragebalde as thier damage item and can then proceed to build full tank.

a stun might work when they ONLY have the rageblade and devourer isnt fully stacked yet.. but as soon as they add onitem 3053 and item 3156 or item 3139 they become pretty much unstoppable even in a 1v5

Nobody should be able to survive in a 1v5 unless they are already fed more than anyone else in the game. If they aren't going 12/0, and they're still winning a 1v5 against your team, then your team needs to have better positioning of the squishies and better choice of tanks in champ select.

or it means that thier champ is OP.

i had a game where we comepletly shut down yi for 20 min (0 kills at the 20 min mark) by 28 min he had 10 kills the last 5 of them being a penta in which he 1v5ed us.

it DOESN'T MATTER that we completly shut him down. as soon as he got the gold foritem 3124 and a tank item or two it was over. we DID stun him. we DID try to burst him down, but he had 3k hp and all that happened was we proceditem 3053 before he murdered us all

Chain cc of a Devo and Rageblade user can still yield a death. You would think the user would die before getting a kill. Low skill cap cjamps arent supposed to get away with it XD, yet they r.

I screwed around to experiment. Confirmed how even the unfed, low cs, still somehow get fed.

Rageblade does need a fix. Why else would aa users w/ little need for AP get it?

I think it's an awesome item that helps a ton with split pushing so I'm fine with it as is.

Sated Dev is the larger problem.
