Lethality this patch

Lethality needs to be seriously looked at.

In the current state, it is not only strong, it is SO STRONG that most AD champions are buying items they have little synergy with, JUST to get access to massive amounts of lethality.

Varus hardly needs Edge of Night, or Duskblade of Drakthaar. But he definitely wants the lethality.

It certainly is nowhere near hotfix territory, but it is about as crazy strong as I could imagine one stat being. I'm not gonna lie, it actually feels STRONGER than pre-assassin update armor penetration, if for no reason other than the ridiculous abundance of it + the scaling nature.

Thoughts?

Yes yes and yes.

And don't even get me started about the meta of 4 bruisers/assassins meta where basically everyone buys edge of the night,be it Jhin,Varus,Hecarim,Talon,Jayce,Rengar,Kha'Zix,and oneshotting you out of nowhere because there are very little champions that have insta cast spells to cast fast enough as to pop the stupid veil before applying their only cc they have. And it gives lethality,and it gives MR,and it gives attack damage. It's even better than banshee because you can just skirt outside of range for 1,5 seconds which is nothing and effectively choose WHEN your shield is going to pop instead of permanently having it on and having a 40 second cd that is interrupted by damage. This is unhealthy,has no counter play,and when build along yoummus which also gives AD,lethality and even movespeed to make you close the gap even faster,is utterly disgusting and needs to stop.Especially when combined with most assassins having no skillshots,and those who do,deal WAY TOO MUCH DAMAGE with them.(looking at you varus Q that tears off half my HP even though you hit 6 targets before hand!)
