Why is Riot always trying to ruin diverse build paths? ( Don't Change Triforce Petition)
First they changed Triforce having it lose 10% crit chance while remaining the same price, then they removed the ap and added back the crit chance, ruining build paths for some hybrids who enjoy that extra bit of ap. Now they want to completely remove the crit chance, and implement more attack speed, as if with the new ADC changes the ADCs didn't get ENOUGH items. You guys are ruining ad casters, and yes, ad casters can depend on that extra bit of crit rate, and don't depend on attack speed. This is the most poorly thought out item change possible, they gave Triforce more attack speed, no crit chance, and 10% more cdr. WHO IS GOING TO BUY THAT SHIT?! ADCs don't need the cdr since essence reaver is such a core item for those who rely on cdr, and with the trend of ghost blade, they're capped out on cdr, so who possibly benefits from this change? This item will never replace Ice Born Gauntlet for Ezreal, so I honestly don't see the purpose of this change. This may be an item path for devourer junglers who are following out of the scene, but they were toxic for the game anyways. There has to be a better way than to gut other champions, in order to may or may not get a positive change for a certain group of champions that are a bit down in the gutters at the moment. Triforce is the most iconic item in the game, one of the most balanced item for the longest time, only meant for snowballing, with small increments of situational stats, with a nice sheen proc. Changing Triforce like this is literally blasphemy.
*Edit People who think bruisers will be "buffed" with the changes, getting the extra 10% cdr and attack speed can't be more wrong. Champions like Irelia and Jax have enough attack speed in their build path, that a 25% honestly wouldn't do anything, they want to kill their target as soon as possible, losing the 20% crit rate, will hit them hard, as they require to land more attacks without the chance of it landing a critical, while the enemy team is peeling them off. This game isn't about DPS, there's mechanics where you can only attack for a certain amount of time before you're killed or cc locked, stats like attack speed that are prolonged damage potential skills hurt Bruisers in their attempt to kill off squishy targets as soon as possible. Bruisers generally have max cdr at the end of their build path anyways, so that extra 10% is pointless, and it will never replace BC on champions like Darius, or Olaf. I am almost 100% certain it will have a negative affect on Irelia and Jax, they honestly don't need the extra attack speed over crit rate, since crit rate is in such a small niche, only available on ADC centric items, people forget it's value on champions that aren't just marksman, gp, or yasuo. People don't understand that even champions who depend on attack speed, having a difference between 0% crit rate to 20% is HUGE, even at the cost of attack speed. When one stat is inflated it makes other damage stats like crit rate much more valuable especially when it's a difference from 0% to 20%, as those champions who don't depend on cr from triforce will have no other source of cr.
