No, don't tell them my weakness.
If I have to buy sightstone as support, you should have to buy executioner's against the Soraka.
"Grievous Wounds is effectively true damage equal to 40% of your opponent's sustain."
Tip of the day: If your enemies outheal your damage...
... you need to get more damage.
Sorry, but math does not comply.
40% heal reduction vs 50% heal is not 40% increased damage.
Let's use an example with easy numbers. You deal 100 dps, your target has 1000hp, but it also is healed for 500 duering the fight. this means you need 15sec to take down the 1500hp. With GW, your target now heals only 300, so 1300hp which means you need 13sec, that's ~13.33% less time needed to kill. Now, in order to take down 1500hp within 13sec, you'd need ~115.4 dps, so in the end, that heal reduce equals an effective 15.4% increase in damage.
GW still is effective vs high healing, but 40% more effective damage is quite an over-exeggeration.
Are ennemies really supposed to outheal 50% of your dmg tho
This is why suggesting an item can actually be good. Have on numerous occasions gone. "May I suggest an Executioner's Calling to deal with Raka heals?" People have even less of an excuse with the Bramble Vest item now. I think something needs to be altered for Mages though. AA reliant and tanks have a cheap answer but mages still have to spend a pretty penny.
Wouldn't it be like 25%
"Hey team, please build Exe's/Morello, Bramble won't do much against Vladimir and Mundo"
All: "Shut up noob no one plays Jax top why not pick insert boring tank here such a troll pick 13x report"
No space in the inventory, if it doesn't build into a real item (Enemy team has no armor - Vayne, Annie, Kayne, Yasuo, Soraka ). Played against this yesterday. We barely won. Kayne with Hydra, Visage, Death's Dance and Soraka was unkillable in teamfights and we could kill him only when he was alone and had to be focused by 2-3 people. In teamfights he alone could take at least 2 people and heal to full from almost dead with his ult. Also, Vayne top vs Gp is the most cancerous thing in the game. You can farm only when your jg has ganked or killed her. At some point she had triple my cs and was several levels ahead, so I had to gank the other lanes, because I couldn't go anywhere near her without wasting flash.
I'm looking at your name and wondering why you'd give this away.
I recently faced off agaisnt a yas who was outhealing my teams damage... so i bought a thornmail... He was still abel to outheal us 1v3 and be nearly untouchable becuae of his kit.
tip of the day:if your enemies outshield 50% of your damage,you might as well afk because there is nothing you can do
Name.... Doesn't check out???
I just played a game of ARAM, which i think has reduced healing? I had Aatrox outheal all my damage on Ahri+tower. I had Morello's and he was GW 100% of the fight. Healing is just fucking BS.
