honestly, don't get it, make a squishy carry get a 2nd life instead of the tank who's main goal is survivability.

Well, GA was never rlly a good buy on tanks. People focused on squishies so it is only natural for squishies to get GA which will deny assassin's burst.

And yes, for how much diverse item AD has, they should've never added AD to it.

That's just not true. Throughout S6 and early S7 it was a top tier tank item.

Maybe it shouldn't exist at all ? the goal of an assassin is to kill squishy target but hey, someone bought one item :')

the new ga is just an ad version of item 3157

ap champs can use the active on zhoyhas to prevent burst or damage and basically survive and get a 2nd life when if they wouldnt of used it would have died.

the difference is you can pop the active on zhonyas at any time. where as the GA on takes effect when you die ... and it has a longer cooldown

GA is cheaper though, 500 gold cheaper, I'd gladly lose 10% CDR and AP on zhonya if that meant it was 500 gold cheaper

item 3157 70 ap 45 armor 10 % ap and the ability to use the active at any time with a lower cd 120secs item 3026 40 ad 30 armor 300 second cd

i think they priced properly for what they ofter.

also if you look at adcs in the game they typically dont get a GA til 4th or 5th item typically 26-31 mins in game where as mages get zhonya's 1st or 2nd in most games about 15 mins in...

so not only do you get more stats , its a core item on most mages, and with the lower cd on active you get more use from it.

IF ANY THING ...

we should change GA to be more like zhonya's then increase the cost. where it offers more stats and the ability to use the passive/active at any moment of our choice

Actually ga is a better version of zhyonias. Ga requires no thought, and revives you, aka gives you hp.

It seems like they didn't like tanks, supports, mages or (certain) fighters building it.

There's a difference between a squishy carry unable to do anything for 4 seconds and the tank being literally useless.

Same with mercurial and banshie's for mages honestly. Such powerfull defensive mechanics should come at the cost of damage. Yes they have comparable low off stats, but imo such effects should force you to commit to one fully defensive item slot, like it used to be(exept zhonya's, though givien that mages have no sustain it always seemed fair to me that they have another defensive mechanic to pick up without giving up ot much for it)
