"NEW GA" Isn't new.

Why are all these people yelling about "GA ON X ADC IS BULLSHIT, SHE GETS ANOTHER LIFE"

Guess what, ADCs already really liked the item, and the 40 AD in place of MR isnt making it busted for ADCs.

ADCs ARE building the item, but do you know what else happened? Less tanks are. And that was the goal of the GA rework.

You have ALWAYS been able to get GA third item, and STILL get your damage reduced for getting it early.

THERE IS NOTHING NEW about GA other than less tanks are getting it. Stop using "GA IS BUSTED NOW" as an argument for anything. It is doing the EXACT same thing it always has.

ADCs building more GA doesn't meant the item is meant for them.

Building GA was a choice, especially for ADCs, do you want the passive but getting not so useful stats, or not. Now everyone rushes GA like it's some good crack on smoke.

Especially catering it for the ADCs and tip the balance towards them where there is literally nothing to fix means the balance is busted by definition.

Not to mention, it also does not help addressing the problem where supposed you want less tanks build it. Guess what, tanks never build them in the first place, it has always been the bruisers who buy it. And guess what again, it not only DOESN'T make AD bruisers to buy it less, it now encourages them to purchase it just like ADCs.

Yes, exaggeration and emotion triggering aside, it's pretty clear that the situation is not great.

GA may not be in the best situation, but its not new. People are acting since the rework this is a whole new item. ADCs liked it, bruisers liked it, tanks could build it. All of which HASNT CHANGED.

THAT is my main issue. People treating this as its whole new item. Call GA bullshit all you want, but dont act like its anything new.

GA was NOT a choice lol

GA was mandatory because your ADCs would sit at maybe 40 MR with runes lategame and mages or even normal supports could annihilate them because of how much magic damage they deal.

Now they gain a little bit of MR per level but in the end they'll still have 30 MR less than before.

The new GA is barely cost efficient and hard to build. It only has two components and means you'll have to make purchases with more than 1k gold in your pocket each time, which is not always possible.
