My bad guys calling Jax OP just a minute ago. I was told this was the actual problem. Half the time I don't even feel that I deserve the wins because of this.

it is op. I feel like i gotten 2 items after getting it. you're getting 84% increase in attack speed. which is exactly the same attack speed u get from jax passive when you max it out. so you will get some 168% increase in attack speed. plus you get an increase in ability power and damage over time which jax makes use of both in his auto attacks (if you use R) and abilities. it works best on him. but you have to get the gunblade as well.

they should nerf it. but not by much. because it gets pretty weak toward late game becaues you want burst. so you'd rather have something like BORK. or an item with more damage or something like that.

Rageblade is a very strong item, I think it needs to be nerfed somewhat (that cost nerf barely counts at all). On the other hand.............

I also think they need to make a pass at all the champions that are building it, and nerf them across the board. Rageblade offers champions who usually had no mixed damage the ability to stay relevant. It also makes a lot of builds (like AP xin) slightly more viable. It also gives waveclear to some champs that desperately need it (teemo, Jax, aatrox though he could build hydra pretty effectively). So overall, I like the item. But the champions are not balanced for a rageblade that isn't a trash item.

So maybe its time to nerf the AP ratios on Jax's abilities, Nerf teemo E, Nerf Kayle E, nerf Xin heal, etc. I realize that this is a lot more work than just nerfing rageblade, but since the item offers a lot of champions alternate build paths, I don't want to just nerf it to useless again.

This item is only thing that keeps Jax MasterYi XinZhao Udyr Kayle Warwick away from being dumstered. I dont even know what they would build without Guinsoo since Bork is such shit now.
