Yes, its a dumb question, but I don't really think I understand the full answer. Why exactly is the 80 health game so game breaking that were willing to slow down our builds? Don't you technically get more health out of 3 pots?
I'm aware I must sound crazy.. but im tried of not understanding why we do what we do in this game.
Midg3t5 votes80 hp at early lvls can make a difference between life and death. Plus it gives you life steal. But if you dont feel you need to take dorans over long sword feel free to buy it :)
Kanzler4 votesDont forget the 3% lifesteal!
Dorans items are very cost efficient if you can benefit from all 3 factors. If you dont benefit from all 3, you probably are best starting off with long sword.
Jamaree2 votesBecause that 80 heath can be the difference between winning a trade or losing it, it all depends really.
There isn’t anything wrong with either start though honestly
BlackKnightJack2 votesHarder to burst down plus you get a little bit of life steal as sustain. Champions that like to do burst like Riven or Zed, though, start longsword 3 pots, though.

In normal BS games in Ranked, or Normal, it won't matter at all, because people don't have the skill to make the difference. Just take the Long Sword bruh. [garen-swing]
Tailypo1 votesplay with a longsword instead if you can't tell a difference.
Z3SIeeper1 votesWith tons of champions dealing well over 100% of your maximum health in a single rotation, the extra 80 health will help keep you barely alive when you manage to dodge 50% of their combo.
