"Haste" Description

Was/is anyone else confused about the unique passive "Haste"? It currently reads, "This item gains an additional cooldown reduction."

I thought this meant that the item itself gained a 10% activation cooldown, not that the champion gained 10% cooldown. I thought they called it Haste so that people could fire off items a little bit more quickly, when added with Cosmic Insight. I feel like it should be worded differently or given a more obvious name to distinguish that the item doesn't gain cooldown reduction, the champion/summoner gains the cooldown.

I was just in a game earlier and was confused why I had 40% cooldown with only 2 items and Transcendence.

The haste is just for the unique name. But yes, saying the item gains the cdr is a bit confusing i suppose lol

It was confusing for me too at first but Wolfcub2000 is correct. The wording just sucks. A few items that used to be 20% CDR are now 10% CDR non unique and 10% CDR unique in the form of Haste.

So with Transcendence you would have:

10% CDR + 10% Haste from item 3003 10% CDR + 0% Haste from item 3285 because Haste is unique 10% Transcendence CDR

40% CDR total with no excess adaptive damage

However, if you had say

20% CDR from item 3115 10% CDR + 10% Haste from item 3003 10% Transcendence CDR,

You would have 40% max CDR (without the cosmic insight rune) and you would have 10% converted to adaptive damage
