Why does mejai's exist?

Seriously you only get it when; Oh look my laner is bad, I'm gonna be an asshole and take extreme advantage of this! Yea.

It's just a BM item, and it doesn't support "good" players, it just reinforces toxic play. Sword of the occult was removed, so this is a simple step.

Mejai's isn't just for mid-laners, you know. It also works well on supports who can avoid dying like Janna or Support Lux. They might not build stacks as fast via assists, but they aren't as likely to lose said stacks if played well.

For me, it takes away the fun of the game as I'm always worried about dying

Are you soft? Answer is the community is soft thinking that is a form of bm rather than smart investment may aswell say that businesses are bm too.

Because it is high-risk high-reward. Why not? And its not being an 'asshole' if you buy it in lane.

It's more a "We'll see how this goes" item, thanks to item 1082 .

If I start item 1082 and get 10 stacks on it, then I know I'm playing safe enough and getting enough kill participation that I can justify buying item 3041 . Since item 3041 no longer needs full stacks to be effective, it's OK if I get killed every so often. If it looks like I'm no longer able to maintain >15 stacks, then I can sell it back and buy something else.

Sword of the Occult was removed because it could only be picked in a situation where you were going to stomp your opponent. Mejai's Soulstealer works because you can alternatively stack it by being safe and still helping the team.
