Guess I'll be avoiding league for a month or so. I don't like the idea of you ca't play half or more of the adc roster. Lethality is too good, I swear I am having the strangest cast of dejavu, and if you can't just straight build lethality then your SoL.
Why'd they even change it again. I thought the first time lethality blew up, they decided it was overdone. The Tone down was fine, It did it's job without being completely out of whack.
INoble KnightI5 votesJust had a game where J4 went full lethality and deleted 3 people with one ult. Fair and balanced.
nm10101 votesI wonder which three the 16 kill full damage J4 deleted?
INoble KnightI1 votesOh yeah but when all he pressed was R that's just nuts lol
nm10101 votesI'd love a replay to see how this deleted you
INoble KnightI1 votesHe didn't delete me. He deleted the others. He always came from off screen. May have E-Q-R but never noticed it cause was to busy trying to save my team mates. Also you gotta remember he went full lethality and Duskblade hurts like a motherfucker.

It does, as a full damage build should.
INoble KnightI1 votesAll I ever saw for sure was the R, never really saw E-Q but could have missed it. Yeah but but a fighter/tank shouldn't be able to assassinate people like that even with full assassin build. no counterplay to that at all
nm10101 votesHe is a diver (dives in and kills or is killed) and yes there is counterplay, its called build an armor item or have your support be 
etc with 
.
yıff4 voteswaahhh i play only adc and mages so now that assassins are viable again i have to whine wahh
PhDs Nuts3 votesIt's even better than just lethality. It's lethality plus the current healing/shielding meta. You either one shot them or all your damage is completely negated =D
SO MUCH FUN
Automated Riven3 votesI honestly feel like lethality is unbalancable.
Fear the Kayn3 votesThe counter to lethality is armor. I like the idea of champions being forced to expand their builds and build items they normally wouldn't in order to counter other items. ADCs should have to build armor or risk being instantly deleted.
Zardo1 votesSounds great- doesn't work. Black cleaver shreads the armor you built, plus since you are lacking damage you get out traded anyways.
Limrick2 votesIt's really just Duskblade. It gives like 150 extra damage at level 9. On someone like Wukong, that means his Q does around 500 damage to a squishy.
nm10101 votes84 flat armor pen @level 18 isn't a problem and its totally the duskblade power spike that is still worse than the original duskblade that had 90 + 25% missing health damage.
Limrick1 votesEvery item in the game is worse than old Duskblade, that item was gross.
nm10101 votesSo tell me what is wrong with current duskblade?
Limrick1 votesIt's ridiculously gold efficient, has a great build path, the passive gives absurd levels of burst, and it helps you clear wards.
nm10101 votesIt is under 90% gold efficient, garbo compared to some other full items. And I would argue the "absurd" levels of burst is a pretty high overstatement.
Limrick1 votesUp to 360 extra damage on your first auto, that's 20% of an ADC's healthbar, and that doesn't even count the auto itself or any modifiers to it.
nm10101 votesWhich is comparable to other burst focused items, it is also easier to counter since its physical damage now instead of true damage. For example it is almost exactly the same damage vs a level 18 adc with 
as it was previously in true damage.
Limrick1 votesMost ADC's don't grab Tabi anymore after the nerf, and they still have basically no armor because nobody buys just one lethality item.
nm10101 votesMost ADC's don't grab Tabi anymore after the nerf
They lost 2% aa damage reduction, take the cheap armor to live over being dumb.
and they still have basically no armor because nobody buys just one lethality item.
When I said "for example it is almost exactly the same damage vs a level 18 adc" I was assuming 3 lethality items + full lethality runes, so the point still stands it does basically the same damage if you buy 2 cheap armor items.
Executioner1 votesDont worry you wont be seeing the lethality adcs anymore. The only item good on them is duskblade and ghostblade on a select few champions. Other than that dont even touch those items as an marksman.
Shadòw1 votesbecause it is simply bullshit when Assassins don't get rewarded for doing good because it scaled with enemies level.
