EoN is still strong but can we stop using Banshees Veil as a reference point to nerf it.

EoN and Banshees are drastically different items. Yes they both give a spellshield but that doesnt make them similar enough to base of.

Again, I AM NOT DEFENDING EDGE OF NIGHT BEING BROKEN, it is definetly strong right now (although i think EoN is broken because of the Lethality being overloaded not the spellshield)

EoN is an item for an assassin, it has a channel before activation because the assassin is supposed to be the one to dictate when he wants to go in and assassinate. The Issue with edge of night is because of the lethality ADCs are building it and throwing it on before a fight as long as they see it coming. (If they dont have time to see it coming aka an assassin they wont have time to throw it on.)

Banshees is a (in my opinion currently underpowered) usually tank item that has a passive spellshield that has a long CD because it is able to stop engage CC, if Varus ults you can jump in front of it with your banshees, or if a annie tries ulting you from a bush you wont get stunned and you can get away. You dont have to prepare it.

On top of that Banshees is built on tanks, meaning if they only need to be saved once in a while. EoN is (most likely) meant to be ready for every assassination attempt an assassin tries.

We need to look at EoN and compare it to other assassin items, assassin item actives, and spellshield healthyness overall (sivir/nocturne >.>) Instead of a tank item that shares a similar mechanic.
