An Item Alternative for Conqueror? Item idea
I've been seeing a whole lot of top laners taking Conqueror, and I'm seeing the true damage come up on all of my death summaries. It's like a must-have for taking on tanks, and can shred through a few other champs.
Rather than a rune be the new meta for AD melee champs, why not have it be an item? Here is an idea:

The Mighty Conqueror
(1300) +
(1100) + 1000 Gold https://i.imgur.com/8kePlRp.png Total 3400 Gold
+65 Attack Damage +10% Cooldown Reduction
UNIQUE Active: For 4 seconds, convert 20% of damage dealt to champions as true damage (12% for ranged champions) (70 second cooldown). Basic attacks lower this item's cooldown by 1 second on hit (0.5 seconds for ranged champions).
The Mighty Conqueror (old version)
(800) +
(875) + 925 Gold https://i.imgur.com/8kePlRp.png Total 2600 Gold
+50 Attack Damage
UNIQUE Passive: Converts 5% of damage dealt to champions as true damage. This bonus raises by an additional 1% for every second in combat with champions (10% maximum). The true damage is only 60% effective for ranged champions. UNIQUE Passive - Executioner: Physical damage inflicts Grievous Wounds on enemy champions for 3 seconds.
Thoughts? :)
(1300) +
(1100) + 1000 Gold
(800) +
(875) + 925 Gold
builds off of attack speed, though, so it would be a little different. Unless you're thinking of something that stacks on its own. Although, making it a bonus you get from Energize doesn't make it reliable. The active gives it to you when you need it most, and the original passive works like Liandry's but for AD champs.
and
already provide that.
