How can we make Ohmwrecker useful???

item 3056 You see that icon there? Do you know what that is? Probably not. Nobody uses the item because of how useless it is. It's basically a trap item that will have someone wonder what they can do with it and try to squeeze any use out of the item and end up behind because of the purchase. Basically a tank item with an active that allows you to deactivate an enemy turret for 3 seconds. Here are some glaring issues with this item.

The stats on it are mediocre in which you're better off purchasing other tank items.

The active allows you to deactivate an enemy turret for 3 seconds with a 2 minute cooldown but by the time you can purchase Ohmwrecker to make use of it, you're already tanking turrets efficiently with other tank items that carry on late game.

Ohmwrecker becomes useless late game when all enemy turrets are gone rendering the active useless. Ohmwrecker becomes more and more useless as the game carries on which is unsatisfying and unrewarding.

The item has been with us for three seasons and barely gets any play while other items that got removed has seen more play than Ohmwrecker.

My opinion to make it better is make it cheap and give it an extra passive. OR EVEN REPLACE IT. Give it a supportive passive that benefits in the long run. At least give it a secondary active that you can use on your own towers to make it invulnerable like the summoner spell Fortify to fight off siegers or split pushers.

I think using it's active makes it pretty useful ༼つºل͟ºς༽

Ohmwrecker has been changed so many times. It went from a tank item to an AP back to tank lol.

While i do agree Ohmwrecker can be useless late game, Ohmwrecker is not an Item you should be buying every match. I typically buy it on Leona or Braum in matches where both teams are doing the turret-poke dance consistently, It can be a game changer, I also enjoy the item with ZZ'Rot portal so i can become a split pushing beast with out the help of another Champ. I prefer Ohmwrecker on Leona tho simply because I'm Leona and will be tower diving... a lot, it's also nice to reset turret aggro off yourself or your teammates. It's a nice item to have when you've aced them, have no minions but can't afford to over tank the tower for someone else.

Like i said it's not a core item, it's situational extremely so.

Give it a passive that increases stats while inside the enemies home? (inside the enemy base)

Maybe some movement speed so you can get from place to place? Not a huge amount, a flat speed buff.

Give it the old fortify summoner spell. Fix'd.

I like the stat bonus when you're inside their base to promote the item as a siege. Even the fortify active is cool.
