Vayne with Spear of Shojin is really cool

Tumbling twice a second during her ult is really cool and leaves tons of room for counterplay.

Seriously, just remove this item.

Reasonable people, years ago: "Let's cap CDR at 40% so things don't get too crazy."

Current Riot design team: "Let's move fast and break things!"

What Vayne is building Spear of Shojin? Like, the only thing she really gains anything serious from is the 60 AD, and even then there are better AD items (and better defensive items then the 250 HP SoS gives)

She doesn't want the passive, she doesn't want the CDR. All in all a kinda worthless item on her.

...with a grand total of 333 picks.

That's not a trend, that's a statistical outlier.

The only things even close to it are Mortal Reminder (which Vayne doesn't need any real additional Tank busting, and is bought mainly to counter heals), Frozen Mallet (something that would only be seen on like a Vayne top, and even then is picked more then SoS), and the goddamn Ornn Masterwork item (which is barely below SoS picks)

It has a significantly higher win rate than other low pick items that are built later (signifying that Vayne has reached late game, which should naturally have even higher win rate). People just haven't caught on to how absurdly broken being able to stealth every two autos is.

There is literally nothing not amazing about being able to be almost permanently in stealth.

Cool story.

But did you know that Vayne with pre-9.3 Essence Reaver was even better? Since the item was both cheaper and had more AD?

Spear isn't good on Vayne, Vayne is just broken. Doesn't really matter what she builds, as long as there is a Botrk+Guinsoo involved, shes going to be broken.
