Dude. Health doesn't mean shit if you have low armor and MR. Still gonna get blown up.

We want another AP armor item and MR item as well.

I think you need to learn what DEFENSE entails as a whole. It's not just health.

Lol sure, good luck blowing up a 3k hp mage that has 1000 range

the boards have come to this for real?

No point arguing with mage players. They will gladly cry how GA and BC or Edge of night are defensive options, but then cry how when almost the same stats are slapped on their offensive items, that it's useless.

When a bruiser wants defense items he actually has to dip into tank items and not have everything tailored to him to give him everything.

That's why a ton of AD champs have gap closers.

facepalm

If you have any kind of skill, you would know when to attack when a mage has their spells on cooldown, and there is no burst mage that will be building 3000 health. Galio or tanks, sure. Not a Lux or Orianna. It's very easy to blow them up cause they have no armor or AP.

gap close to die by the entire team, that sounds good to me too !

also everyone will build morello+liandry+rylai, everyone except maybe lux Orianna built Rylai when it was broken, so did syndra

they will build them and get 3000 hp while having hard cc+1000 range + ton of burst

It's called peel. Ever heard of it? Have your team peel the others off/away from your target, fly in, delete, get out. Duh.

They won't have as much burst now because Riot nerfed the AP items, and not everyone will be building the same build path. You don't know that until people get a chance to try it out and see what is best for each AP champ. And like I said, HEALTH alone is not DEFENSE.

Please learn to read. We need armor and MR as well.

It baffles me how can anyone can call the most broken active in the game "bad".

You see on how stopwatch by itself has warped the meta.

Also #revertfizz.

Diamond2KappaFeb 7, 20183 votes

Because the item is basically just the active. And its the only item with armor so ap champs basically cant armor without 0 damage items, while Zed with Maw can invalidate ap champs and oneshot them through Zhonyas with a Duskblade and maybe some more damage. Zed isnt allowed to be viable of course since he is a squishy melee champ with no utility but he is still unfair af in lane which isnt a very fun way of balancing it imo.

It's bad because Riot kept butchering the AP and armor on it, then raised the active CD from 90 seconds to 120, so Zed can ult you twice now in the timespan that it is down (I've done the math, with full CDR and max rank ult, he can do it twice and have his ult almost halfway off CD by the time you get your active back up late game).

And with this meta now, building it first item pushes you back severly to where it's hard to catch up.

Its called balance.

Hourglass cannot have good combat stats for the price or it becomes broken.

MysticDreams12Feb 7, 20182 votes

That's not balance. That's being a biased Riot, cause everyone knows they love their AD side better.

Balance is like putting it at 100 AP, 50 armor, and a 100 second active CD. Not 70 AP, 45 armor and a shitty 120 active CD.

They literally broke the mage itemization and they are complaining about it? Lmao.

Morellos now give GW at any touch of their damage, ludens is now a rushable item, tear/AA is now an actual item for most mages, like so many straight up buffs that its stupid, since mages did not need those buffs.

Can you imagine ryze and azir with those new items? Shits gonna be beyond broken.
