Let's discuss Grievous Wounds.

I'd like to have a friendly discussion about Grievous Wounds and their impact on gameplay.

Specifically, I'd like to talk about the differences in impact between GW when applied by varying sources, such as Morellonomicon, Fizz's W (now removed from PBE), Ignite, Katarina's Death Lotus, etc.

I know in the past GW have been debated over, since its existence is problematic. For example, some say that applying GW on an ability with Morellonomicon when a champion gets below 40% health is a little too hard hitting on champions such as Dr. Mundo, but at the same time, it's almost a necessity when fighting against an AD Carry who will lifesteal up anything in just a couple seconds.

On other champions such as Fizz, it's removed because it's a random bonus that seems a little over the top, since he just pokes you with his basic ability and voila, you can't heal for a number of seconds.

I haen't fleshed out any ideas, but what would happen if we theoretically split grievous wounds into two different attributes - one limits healing from abilities and summoner spells, and one limits lifesteal?

Just curious about your thoughts on this as a whole.

Honestly it's been this way for so long i've learned just to deal with it.
