Is Ohmwrecker going to be overshadowed by the preseason yet again?

For three or four years in a row now, Ohmwrecker has been changed a little bit during the preseason... but never enough to see any play. Every time preseason happens, people are just too focused on the new shiny stuff to pay any attention to that item.

Can we please give it justice? It could be an awesome item if it only had the right set of stats. Currently it's simply not nearly as useful as other armor+health items (DMP, Omen, Sunfire) or its brother Zz'Rot Portal.

Keep in mind that before people realized Zz'Rot gives neat gold from creeps and is a handy pushing tool that surpasses Banner of Command, the Portal was sitting at the highest Armor and MR in the game, 65. Ohmwrecker, meanwhile, packs a meh active on top of an already underwhelming stats.

And then there's the active. It's simply absolutely useless when behind, unlike Zz'Rot Portal. It should be able to at the very least add splash damage to friendly towers, if tower immunity is out of the question.

Will Ohmwrecker see some love this preseason?

The problem is it's just so easy to tower dive already. Why do you need to disable a turret when having an armor item makes you practically immune to the turret anyways.
