A reminder for the new AP itemization threads
1:** These results are NOT FINAL!** Nothing in League is final, but especially things in the testing. They are seeing what works and what doesn't, in an attempt to create a better diversity, kind of like what people complained AD and tank champions had to much of.
2: We don't know the full kits for the champions getting updated in the mage update. They may be too strong with the current items, and riot doesn't want to just throw out absurdly high numbers, and so they are being more cautious with how overpowered things MAY be.
3: We don't have the full information on how they will change mana regen on AP champions, poke based champions, etc.
4: Will of the ancients being removed is good for Vlad, because they have stated he will be better balanced around it not existing.
5: non-ap items are also getting hit by these changes, such as muramana, righteous glory, etc.
6: We don't know how the meta will be when these changes come out, so we can't fairly compare them as they are now.
It's fair to be skeptical about the changes, I am worried about how it'll effect my favorite mid laners
and
, but keep an open mind. After all, do you really, REALLY want the mage items to be so blatantly overpowered that you HAVE to run 3, maybe even a fourth as a support (or hell, replacing the ADC) ap carries on a team? Give feedback on how they look when we get a better look at them IN GAME.
