I built 
with 
in a game against a lot of AP and CC, but I'm really wondering where its purpose now lies knowing it doesn't drop all debuffs and all that (We know rito's balance team are 
mains and the patch notes are a lie kappa)
Like.... I guess the question is - WHEN DO YOU USE IT? AND WHY IS IT NOT DISCOUNTED DESPITE BEING GIMPED?

Drunk Rummate1 votesStill great against champions with high cooldown CC. Especially suppression.
Still great for squishy ADCs who can't afford even a second of CC without getting blown to smithereens.
I think it was never meant to be a bruiser item in the first place. Big part of bruiser counterplay is CCing them because most of them (like pantheon) can just jump on you and murder you instantly.

Here's why I went with QSS:

Here was what I could build before we lost - 
Drunk Rummate2 votesStraight up you should have gone Banshees instead of the scimitar.
Survive the annie burst and just accept you're going to be CCd to hell because theres still a fiddle, sona, and skarner after the annie stun. Tanks counter that kind of stuff, not scimitar.

I was going to go tank if my team could fucking group long enough for me to get to that point. When we had a single or two targets, we were like clockwork just melting them, but in a group fight, because our 
was ass and 
couldn't position, our teamfights sucked. Skarner also wouldn't die unless you spent a good 2 minutes fighting him.
Outside of grouping, I was able to outposition and melt the rest of them, minus skarner. I also told people "hey, build heavy MR" or "build 
"
no one had a clue really. Oh well. At the end of the game I still did really good AND actually had learned more about good ganking because I took Panth top instead of JG
