Looks like we're gonna have to start banning Riven, Zed, and Yasuo once preseason starts.

Why those four? It's kinda obvious, they are all manaless, benefit from the new AD items, and can easily kill ADCs.

But hey, this is just day 1 of the preseason changes on the PBE, so things may change, yes? Pretty sure there's actually more to just these, but it is very likely that those 4 would be stronger once preseason is live, even though they are currently strong enough already.

Thoughts?

I see it. People need to realize how strong the newer adc's are first, play them up, then assassins start becoming in-demand with the Ryze of ADC's.

Assassins can do nothing against the new item death dancer, with its 20% damage reduction and life steal ,in a normal teamfight, there is no way an assassin can face an adc deep in the enamy team

It's not reduced, it's turned into a DoT over the course of 5 seconds. Since they will have lifesteal, if they keep AA'ing, they can possibly heal through it, that's how they survive. If the assassin can burst and get out quick enough not to be hit (and there are assassin's that can do this) then the DoT becomes irrelevant and they die anyway. Besides that, if you're an assassin and you're diving the carry without the rest of your team to help or distract the enemy, you deserve to die.

Moreover yasuo with the new mastery and a statikk will have 55% att speed, 60% crit chance, 15% life steal (2 sec of cd)with an item. This powerspike is scary....
