To anyone wanting to spam up the board on Uberdangers behalf about SotO
You might want to stop and think about if
is actually a good item or not.
Because Uberdanger is pretty unique in how he uses it. 99.9% of people do not buy it early, often, and not knowing they have it in the bag, just hoping they'll get 20 stacks. In the majority of cases, it's something bought when you've easily won lane, and think you'll be able to get a few more easy kills before laning is over so you can roam with high stacks post laning, which prevents it from ever being used as a "high risk, high reward" item. For example, the Devourer enchant is a "high risk high reward" item because it's something you intend to buy usually before the game has even started, or at latest after your first jungle clear, which is typically before you know how things are fairing in the game, you have no idea if you'll be able to farm for stacks, or if you're gonna be getting stacks from ganks. for the typical SotO situation to actually fail it's "risk", the opposing team would all have to suddenly decide to shut you down HARD the instant you bought it, I'm talking 3-4 man ganks anytime you step a toe off your tower, otherwise you either A: wouldn't have bought it, B:stomped with it, or C: at least got enough kills thanks to it that's it's fine to sell it back now that you're getting focused (1400 gold isn't exactly big money).
Even besides it hardly ever being picked up in "risky" scenarios, the item isn't that balanced, and you don't have to look any farther than Uberdangers own videos for proof, where you have shit like killing champs in a single auto attack, a snowball item shouldn't turn you into an avalanche that cannot be dealt with, and 105 AD from a single item ABSOLUTELY does that.
I like Uberdanger, but I sure won't miss
, and I hope
joins it in the grave sooner rather than later.
who is the best poke mage i know of.

SoTo is like the funniest experience ever. And this item isn't even viable, so you don't have to see it every game. But you know the counterplay to getting Stacks for Mejais and SoTo is simply don't feed guys.
