i feel the general concensus in "draintanking" is a "bad thing"

so why the hell does even exist?

30% damage reduction (bleed w/e call it what you will. the point is it takes 143% fatal damage to kill them before turn around and heal off your ass kill you and not die form the heal)

and the heal on EVERYTHING physical.

it everything a "drain-tank" needs bundled into ONE item.

i mean back when it was 15% bleed.. you could deal with it... but not at 30%.. you can one shot them through thier bleed and once you used all your abilities to try to.. your helpless...

Well like most items it would be more fair if it were for helping melee fighters survive long enough in a fight long to do something instead of getting exhausted into deletion.

But in true LoL fashion, ADCs pick it up and use it to be unkillable while hiding in the back line.

*For other shit ADCs highjacked that wasnt intended for them and got nerfed into the ground, please reference item 3053 item 3071 item 3142 item 3147 item 3814 *

Grab Executioner's Calling and it makes your life easier. I've had Supports build it so that the AD doesn't even gimp himself by buying a not so efficient item. It really isn't THAT problematic.

They could change it to 25% and watch, because Thornmail is getting changed and builds out of a new, really efficient, armor item called Bramble Vest. It's on the PBE at the moment and might just fix all our problems.

It's 900g for 35 armor and Grevious Wounds on getting hit. You also reflect 25 flat magic damage to the attacker. Over all an insanely efficient item th at can deal with auto attackers life stealing to full HP in one second. ADCs are probably going to get this. And to top it off somebody like Lucian who can get many hits in really fast will also eat a lot of damage on top of it.

lets be clear, drain tanking is OK to do when your an actual goddam drain tank, its not so much ok when your an ADC that drain tanks while hitting people for 1k crits.

yeah.. you mean like Warwick , Olaf XinZhao ? i didn't think so

the onyl champ i can pull up from memory that is supposed to a "draintank" that the item is USEFUL for is Illaoi

the item is in the mast majoirty of casex only going to useful for "draintanking" for squishy high DPS or high AD burst units that the bleed PREVENTS them form getting 1 shot.

if you weren't going to get one shot the bleed from the isn't really all that OP at all

its only "OP" when they survive what would have been fatal damage
