Crit champs will be strong for a patch or 2 but will have more meaningful changes when a single item doesnt greatly reduce usefulness. Randuins 60 Armor +10% crit reduction IS pretty damn good against ALL crit champions.
Kilanost2 votesThey're doing it in conjunction with some unreleased changed to armor pen stats in the setting of decreased overall health on items. They're trying to make it meaningful to build resistances again instead of health. the 10% crit reduction was always a bandaid for completely out of balance damage.
Verxint1 votesThis. Also, they're adding tank items that are more active and involve more gameplay, so they don't want boring passive effects as well. I'd rather have double the HP than 10% less damage from crits.
I do wonder what exactly you get Randuin's for now though.
TTK Dreadnought1 votesYea, i bought randiun's on illaoi for the AoE slow instead of IBG since the mana isnt really needed (and if i need mana, i find Righteous Glory to be nice). A stronger slow, but less duration really kills the item for me on illaoi as it's the duration i want.
Verxint1 votesFor me, if I want a slow, I'll get a Righteous Glory instead for the speedup.
TTK Dreadnought1 votesin one of my previous illaoi games, i actually bought both randiuns and Righteous Glory. i used Randiun at the beginning of the fight then follow it up by Righteous Glory because the slow has a 3sec delay but you get the movement speed immediately.
was pretty fun. and getting free mana from tanking so much is nice.
Verxint1 votesI've done that on Nautilus. Activate Glory->E->Randuins->Glory Slow->E is back up. You just run forward into fights and they all panic, it's great.
ChaddyFantome1 voteswhile it is hardly a perfect comparison in terms of how potent QSS was heading off Zed compared to how little Randuins Crit Reduc was heading off Crit users, the basic principle is in fact the case and perfect sound.
Imperial Pandaa1 votesSeeing numbers may help people see things.
300 base hit A critical should make that 600. With IE that should be 750 before mitigation I believe.
So 10% off, not sure at which points it mitigates, would be 75 from 750. Reducing the total to 675 before armor works.
It doesn't look all that bad, especially considering the armor pen or shred that exists in the game.
I don't feel like doing the math for Yasuo or Jhin because of their passive's.
The problem I have with comparing it to QSS is the price difference. Just like comparing 
to 
. Similar effects, but easier to inflict with Exe Calling and cheaper. Only real difference is the time it is inflicted. out of combat.
Ralanr1 votesNot sure why'd you'd really by omen now honestly. Just for the 2 second slow?
VivaLaKitten1 votesInfinity Edge +50% crit damage
Randuins Omen -10% crit damage
you see the problem here?
