Gives bonus damage? Check Heals you? Check Still deals true damage? Check

Even though it now deals less true damage, giving a singe rune everything a fighter would want (Not attack speed though, thank god) is just bongus. Level 1, five stacks = 15 adaptive damage. Level 18 = 75 adaptive damage. This is the kind of update that brings abominations like Tank Master Yi to life.

I'd much rather have the keystone deal the converted 20% true damage than have it do all this, even though I despise that as well (One reason why even tanks are paper now).

I can't wait to try this on Kat...

The thing about this is that it doesn't have permanent uptime by just having minions there. They have to hit 5 things before it comes online...which is actually pretty broken on some champs but overall more healthy I think

idk, I'd have to hop on pbe to see how it feels

The only benefit this version of Conqueror has is its versatility. Finally, a lot more champions are able to use it, including mages. However, it’s still OP...

No Refresh bonus on Melee? Check Stacking only on champions? Check Reduced True Damage conversion? Check

It does refresh on every ability/basic attack landed on a champion, a bit like how Jax's passive works. Once it reaches full stacks, it keeps the max stack on until he doesn't attack for a while.

The thing only stacking on champions is a good change, and I am happy that they are planning it. In my opinion, Changing just that would be a great change

Seems better to play against tbh, less true damage to make armor useless, and you have to fight champs to stack it up, not minions or towers

It stacks by damage Any damage to Champions Like the other comment said, Imagine this on katarina

Well this good since now Darius can't clip you with his [Q] & get the Conqueror Proc off the Bleed. Malz won't be able to just press [E] either.

Each spell (even those with multiple hits or dots) only prices it once, unless it's a spell that has recasts like riven and aatrox Q

I'm honestly curious to see what happens if this goes Live. By making the damage Adaptive, it opens it up to more Champions besides the ones that currently use it.

A keystone that works for multiple categories is ok, a bit like aery, comet, electrocute etc. But what I have seen, those keystones are not abused by a handful of champions to the point that it's broken. I am afraid that this will happen with the new conqueror.
