Stormrazor

Honestly just fuck this item, riot sets out to nerf adc's burst damage and then adds an item with the sole purpose of giving burst to crit based champions (mostly adcs). Now that champs like quinn are returning they're getting nerfs and when stormrazor is eventually (hopefully) nerfed, if not reworked, they'll be so underpowered it'll completely remove them from the game. Stop messing around and do what you said you'd do, and stop adc's critting me for half my hp at 2 items and for the love of god just let the meta adjust and let adc's not be a must pick, that brief period of seeing stuff like swain, yasuo, vlad, darius botlane all made for so many interesting matchups and it felt good knowing there wasn't a single character archetype that was a MUST PICK for every single game

They should just bring back the crit meta, this meta change was the most stupid one I have seen, i honestly prefer the tank meta

Thats what happens when someone gets fed

Madsin25Aug 2, 20181 votes

He was not fed.

They stalled until late game(something extremely hard to do now) and then he could proceed with completely annihilating the entire other team.

Ummmm...if it's late game that means he's fed via CS. Kills are not the only thing that matter in this game no matter how much the common pleb wants it to be so.

On a related note, I think it's a little silly how difficult it is to make it to late game now. Like I don't think every game should have a realistic possibility of going late. But I find that even when my team specifically takes a lot of wave clear, scaling, and saves. It's still really freaking difficult to pull off.

I like diversity as much as the next guy, and I think it's silly when only late game scaling team fight comps are played. But there are multiple times throughout league history where scaling team fight, pick n split, and poke/siege comps were all fairly equally successful. I really wonder why Riot moved away from that. The fact that it has happened a couple times makes me believe it's a choice and not because it's difficult to pull off.

I like how people complain about the RNG of crits. riots solution: cant be RNG if its garunteed crit every few seconds.

Roll safe

LigmaAug 2, 20181 votes

crits should be rng, it shouldn't be a build path to just having insane amounts of damage 100% of the time

I don't think it's a problem to let 1 class have a monopoly on highest DPS post mid game

LigmaAug 2, 20181 votes

i hope this is sarcasm lol. The point is that riot wanted them to stop bursting so hard, I feel playing adc should be like using a minigun in a video game, they should have to spool up a bit and start firing faster and faster rather than coming out of nowhere and 2 shotting you and then proceeding to do an assassin's damage repeatedly over time at the longest possible range

Yeah the Heimer-Fiddle botlans were super interesting to watch and not totally cancer, praise diversity.

Wrong. They were a mandatory until on-hit marksmen adapted to bot shifting.

adcs already are useless bunch, and now must pick are like 3 champions botlane, if you call, swain, heimer, vlad only viable champs on bot a vaerity of picks, instead ofevery adc viable and playable, then youre having your head full of brainfarts. Stormrazor is weak as fuck if you play adc correctly, and actually want that midgame power, but well, rito justbuffnerfed adcs, it literarily doesnt matter if you will get 2 items 30 sec to 1 min earlier, except they are nerfed, which means its literarily a nerf. its 6 minions fater for ie ( 1 wave ) and 3 minions faster for zeal items , its 3 minions.

"adcs already are useless bunch" https://champion.gg/statistics/#?sortBy=general.winPercent&order=descend&roleSort=ADC

you mean can 9 champs? boo hoo only 9 champions of this archetype are positive winrate, this is so sad can we hit 50 likes

SwarmerAug 3, 20181 votes

https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/champions/stats/adc/by-winrate

Champion.gg is least reliable source since ever. And yet, some of only viable champions are on lowest inrates, the winrates mean nothing. I pick vlad, luci, mf, which are boring champs and dominate vs real adcs, i pick real adc, i will be dominated by swains vlads heimers. Adcs have no chance to survive at lvl 2 even under the turret, they just explode from full hp in this crappy meta of 3 viable champions vs meta of 14 viable champions

Stormrazor needs a reverse Sterak's limit. Only ranged champs can use it. Barely any ADCs use it effectively, and assassins (Wukong, Zed, Talon, etc) and bruisers (mostly Garen) abuse the item to no end. It's supposed to function as a minor power spike to help ADCs limp to their next items, but instead it's used by non-crit champs to get free critical hits and do more damage than they're supposed to.

q u i n n and I had some fed kindred the other day deal 900 damage from a single auto the other day with stormrazor, although he was fed and I'm not sure that kindred's normal build path now

Laughs in Corki

Corki isn't some exception. He does magic damage and is played mid, but he's still a marksmen. Why should he be any different than using Stormrazor on Jinx or Tristana?
