Rageblade is losing over a net amount of 1000 gold in stats because Varus and Kog'maw abuse it
50 + 24 AP lost, 3 AD lost, 16% AS gained, -200 cost, and melees gain 2 stacks (max stacks increased to 8, but stacks only give 8% MS).
That's 1609 gold worth of AP lost, 105 gold from AD lost, 400 gold of AS gained, and a flat reduction of 200 gold.
As a Kayle player, I have to ask "Why my balance crutch of viability is being destroyed?" Is it because they want to make her shit just so her rework seems better? I don't like to think about that nor do I want to.
As a Varus player, I have to ask, "Why the fuck can't you just nerf my god damn passive?" I don't play Kog'maw, but I bet their mains are asking, "Why was I nerfed at all if this was happening?"
And now, as top lane player, I have to say this benefit me. The item requires other onhit items to be effective. Bruisers can't build other onhit items because they provide no defensive stats (besides Wit's End), and therefore they die too quickly. BoRK is still a shitty item too, and they aren't buffing BoRK because then Ranged Rageblade users would just break it.
With this in mind, why the hell would I give up the synergy Trinity Force and Sterak's Gage? Now ask, who actually benefits from this change? Master Yi? Vayne? Even Kai'Sa is being nerfed before even coming out the patch after she hits with this change.
If you want to know what burning city looks like, you can just come to the Kayle mains Discord. Having to go through the nerf of from Devourer, the fall of Hurricane with the rise of Rageblade to compensate, both Rylai's and Fervor being nerfed for onhit users, the E cooldown change that makes her early game worse, and now her scaling is going to be hit. People aren't happy is an understatement.
Rageblade was originally a hybrid item that bruisers and hybrid champions would build. Now it's become a scaling onhit item, except melee champions don't stack full damage to gain efficient benefits. That's why only certain melee champions buy Infinity Edge; they have special synergy. Rageblade is being turned from a Hybrid Item into an ADC Item that Master Yi can also use.

and 
says hi.
all over again. Instead of taking advantage of melee/range specific modifiers or just straight up restricting them item to melee and working it around them because they are the only ones that can use it fairly with counter play. they just straight up gut it. Good job Riot.
: Actually probably worse because of the loss of AP, but like Aatrox makes him proc his ult passive faster and synergizes with his passive.
: Unsure if the AP loss is enough with her ratios, but it makes her double-proc her W and E on-hit, cools her Q down faster, gives fury to get back to/keep up ult.
: Duh.
: Makes Udyr proc his Tiger, Turtle and Phoenix effects every other auto instead of every 3.
: Makes him proc his passive every other auto instead of every 3.
is a thing now.
know dat feel.
chopped up just to make it a more popular buy on champions that didn't synergize with it anyway.
Now this set with a nerf that would completely remove the viability of the unique passive...for what reason.
are the three champs that ACTUALLY use it though, so it's 2/3rds of its core users.
, since CDR is going to spikes her harder than the phantom hit or attack damage will). A lot of Kayles I see even go for
