and resets every time you get auto'd by an enemy but edge of the night is a flat almost basically a 25second cd? how does this make any sense? Banshess sucks compared to this item.

Nah, Banshee's just sucks period. Static CD and weakness to poke kinda means it does fuck all in a game where 3 out of 5 of the enemy can be expected to max CDR.

That on top of its shitass statline equals an item that nobody builds.

Because the "drawback" of Edge of Night is the fact you have to channel it to work and that can be interrupted. Not that many people try to channel in the middle of a fight, since the smart thing is prior to an engage.

They should change BV to make it a active shield.

Because Riot says fuck you. But dickheadness aside. it properly will be looked at on the tank update.

Banshee's will protect you from any spell coming your way and is a constant shield. Edge of Night will protect you from being hit by a spell that you think will come your way and only lasts for 10 seconds. Some differences.

Because Banshee's used to be really OP back in the day.

because banshees is a tank item?

You are right. There is only one solution.

Buff Banshee's.

Yea instead of nerfing edge of night we should buff banshee's veil until it's broken, nice logic, or even better yet, nerf eon while buffing banshee's till it's broken because it's not an ad item and we all know the boards hate anyone who's associated with ad.

What I see to be the great issue with edge of night is it takes away your ability to hard CC champs like Master Yi. Example: Yi pops EoN, Ults, runs at you retard style like they do and unless you have 2-3 hard CC gets a double or triple. Plus you get AD, MR, MS, and Lethality thats a fuck load for 3100g. But with all that said the main issue is the hard cc block. Your one way to stop an assassin from getting your adc or APC gets negated way to easy. So a champ like Yi who can't be slowed or zed who is already tough to lock down or even Kat who I have seen this on all get a get out of jail free card with MR too (the list goes on).
