With the Removal of Pen Runes, We Need More Eyes of Pain Items

Items building out of item 3136 are quite rare... in fact, there's only one of them! item 3151. While that's a pretty nice item, its identity is confused: does it want to be anti-squishy with that flat magic pen, or anti tank with that slow current HP burn? Is it for burst damage, or poke? Who knows?

Regardless, AP itemization needs more items with Magic Pen. Let's make some recommendations:

item 3136 + item 3145 + 650G = 3000G Ability Power: 80 Health: 300 Unique Passive: Eyes of Pain - 15 Magic Penetration Unique Passive: Magic Bolt - Damaging an enemy champion with a basic attack shocks them for 100 - 250 (based on level) bonus magic damage and reduces their Magic Resist by 15 for 5 seconds. (40 second cooldown)

item 3136 + item 3191 +700G = 3200G Ability Power: 80 Health: 350 Armor: 50 Unique Passive: Eyes of Pain - 15 Magic Penetration

Actually Liandry's doesn't have an identity problem. It is good against health stackers who don't stack MR. Well if they do buy some MR to counter it then you can buy Void Staff and it goes perfectly with the flat pen.

The total level of magic resist in the game is going to drop notably.

I usually grab flat or scaling MR blues on most everyone.

There's also less MR on champions since many non mages would take MR runes as their blues. The loss of around 8 magic pen is compensated with the loss of MR on many tankier champions.

But every item you proposed all have the UNIQUE passive : Eyes of Pain, so even if we create new items based on haunting guise, we won't have more magic pen. :/ I guess we have to create a new item, based on nothing known atm
