Why do people think Duskblade made assassins OP?
Why is duskblade considered over the top? You pay 800g for the passive, which is completely useless most of the time. Plus, most assassins don't need the burst at all, unless they're severely behind. But the thing is, this item is hellish to build if youre behind because its build path SUCKS. The only items i can think of with higher combination costs are Zhonyas and Ravenous Hydra, but those have actives and passives that are a lot more useful and satisfying than Duskblade. Also, its stats arent much better than any other armor pen items, like Youmuu's. Duskblade isn't why assassins are strong right now, it's because there's 3 or even 4 squishy carries per team comp because of all the marksmen that are everywhere. It's the way the game works, can we stop the QQ now?
