Can We Rethink Stormrazor in the Off Season

I'm fine with the crit. Fine with the attack speed. But why make every AD carry mobile.

Either remove the auto-crit or the movement speed. But preferably the movement speed. Trading should be dangerous and rewarding. Not safe and rewarding. The crit by itself is not terrible.I guess the more and more I see the item, I feel we're just taking the weakness out of large field AD's by trying to give them assurity in trading. This in turn makes the champions who have the assurity more potent. (Jhin of course the most abusable). A lot of other champions were designed around said movement speed. It just feels like Stormrazor has sucked the lime light out of all of them. None of those champions abilities have the reliability, kite-ability, or positional followup possibility that stormrazor provides.

Please take a second look at this item in the off-season. Guess I'm tired of movement speed abilities on champions being completely mitigated because they can either be kited in, or out at perfect range with little to no penalty, and we shove the fact that that sustained auto is always a crit to boot.

Stormrazor doesnt make adcs mobile, jhin passive is what is breaking him.

I imagine the reasoning behind the crit item giving a burst of movement speed, is because of the usually lower damage output early game from Crit ADCs. Because of that, trades last longer, so giving them some more kiting potential throws the ball in their court a little bit.

item 3095 like item 3147 should never have been made... (neither of its passives are healthy for the game

it gives ADC the one thing they don't need which is guaranteed burst

and the "speed passive would be fine if the item didnt give guaranteed a guaranteed speed boost from your guaranteed crit

the problem is that like item 3812 it synergizes with ITSELF. (which has 3 passives that are fine but not in conjution with eachoither on the same item

in the way that it give you a 30% burst damage reduction but at the same time allows u to easily hell off said damage so u wont die to the said burst that would have killed you. meanwhile said burst champion likely just used thier entire kit and u just kill them in return

imagine if u put the item 3116 slow on item 3151 .. that is basially what item 3812 does

you literally cannot have a balanced item that does that in a pvp game.. that is what u put on pvm games.. not pvp games

item can synergize with a champion kit or another item but the item cant syngergize with itself

stormrazor is not only synergizing with itself... it is giving that to a class which was SPECIALLY DESIGNED AND NERFED NOT TO DO BURST DAMAGE.
