new cost: 3100 new stats: +65 ad +15% crit +300 mana
i feel like these changes would make it much more viable on a wider range of adcs and help fill a bit of the gap for a some early crit infinity edge left but with a lower crit chance and the crits being at 200% instead of 250% like they were with infinity helping prevent it from being super good early

Pendergast8911 votesi think they want to avoid an item giving ad and crit to avoid any huge spikes in damage. It wouldn't be as large a spike as old IE, but it still wouldn't be healthy.
Critmaster Garen1 votesi think its good that they removed the crit from essence reaver.
adc getting 30% cdr into a standart attack speed/crit build has always been stupid since they changed the item from its original iteration. at least now its a legitamate choice to itemize for cdr and spell damage over auto attack damage.
that doesnt mean essence reavers passive is neccessarily well designed. it honestly feels off on most champions due to its attack speed scaling. ad casters usually just want to itemize like mages and stack flat ad and cdr. having a requirement of fast auto attacks to proc the passive as much as possible is just awkward imo.
