when Executioners Calling was an item back in S3-4 before it was removed, no one cared about its existence, now that the item is coming back, and with an upgrade, everyone is going, "OMG, Grievous Wounds so OP!"

Just a reminder at how smart the league community can be some days.

Nobody cared about it since its build path was none existent. It literally had no place in league because if you bought it just to counter sustain you were left with an item that had an identity crisis in the mid to late game. It's only presence felt in the game was early and slightly mid game. Wasted gold when you could have actually gotten a core / upgraded item you were delayed and the other bruisers or marksman could ignore building it and do very well and take lead over you if you had purchased it. Now that it's given place where it can be viable at most stages in the game it definitely has the potential to be over powered as it is a very strong passive and gives no counter play for those affected by grevious wounds. But like many people making threads in this forum I suspect the OP is new who probably started playing in season 4.

dr mundo was leagues ubertank then so it was required....then there's aatrox...and xin Zhao

now, everyone else is a tank that kills you instantly and the off meta picks are potentially punished by this

I can understand it can overpower the massively tanky fighters like reksai and hecarim, but it also allows anyone to counter sustain champs
