Is it even worth buying bloodrazer?

So I've been seeing this item being bought by a lot of junglers and then tried it out myself. After using it it just seems so weak in comparison to warrior. Getting 50% atck spd is ok but the item has no other benefits besides the 4% hp dmg which just feels puny and insignificant even when late hits. If the item got some kind of lifesteal maybe I can see it being worth while but as it stands warrior just seems over all superior. Thoughts?

It depends on the champ

It's not good on every jungler, but for on-hit based champions, it's certainly good. It's the best on-hit item in the entire game, with its cheap cost, high attack speed (the highest of any single item in the game), and 4% max health damage on-hit, again the best in the game. Low cost, the highest attack speed of any item in the game (the only other item with 50% is Nashor's Tooth and technically Dervish Blade, but that's not an SR item), and the best on-hit passive in the game, all for 2625 total gold, which isn't the best for on-hit items, but it certainly is cheap. Who did you try it on, might I ask? I would say that it's best on Warwick (if you plan to build tanky after your first 2 items), Nocturne (if you play to build tanky after the first item or 2), Shyvana (always), and Kindred (always). It's also amazing on Twitch jungle. Pretty much, for physical DPS that focuses on sustained damage with basic attacks over burst, get Bloodrazor. For physical damage burst or ability-based champions, get Warrior.

Basically, no.

Its pitifully cost-inefficient to the point where you shouldn't even buy your jungle item, outside of the first component, if you can clear without the 1200g piece completed.

If you can't jungle reasonably with just the first component, then finish the jungle item that suits the champion the most; if they can successfully use warrior, that's probably your best bet, since its the only one that even comes close to approaching 100% cost-efficiency.

**Only get Bloodrazor if your champion/build scales almost purely off of attackspeed. **

Its good on anyone with a built-in attack speed steroid.

I would never buy it on anyone else.
