Why u should touch abyssal mask and make it a weird item again. Abyssal was always a lacklester item for midlaners. As u said in the pre-season u are changing it because it was a weird item. More speciffically it was attractive to ap squishy champions due to the ap that it gave, but the passive is really weird for someone that's a squishy, since they don't want to dive in first in a teamfight to make the passive usefull. When u changed that, the item finally found its place to the tank builds as it should be in the first place. Why now, on the pbe, remove the hp regen and add mana and the harmony passive to make it attractive to mages again. If u have problem with tanks dealing a lot of dmg like zac and sej go nerf them, but don't nerf an entire champion class that use the item, where some of those champs are healthy in the first place! If the mage one trick pony's want their abyssal scepter back go and release a new item similar to that, making it work on them.

Its not about nerfing him. With removal of cheap regen from 3x Doran Rings champions like Galio, Gragas found themselves strugling for mana.

So buff them! Or release a new damn item! Just do not rework abyssal mask, there is no reason. For example i could purchase it on zac. Zac doesn't benefit from mana. Just can u stop plz tweaking things all the time, things that they are a bit powerfull, but not so insanly broken or incredibly annoying to play against! U just make them worse. If u want to nerf abyssal go on, but don't rework. WHY? Come on!

Zac benefits more from Spirit Visage.

I'm thinking it could be because they're trying to turn things like roa/glp/mask into more tank items and have less ap mages build it in their kits for survivability (instead having them use things like zhonyas/banshee's for their "tanky items"). For tanks it kinda makes sense as now things like maokai/nautilus have both a snowball and non-ball mana/hp regen item (getting roa if they're decently far ahead), unless it somehow gains AP I doubt mages are actively going to build it as they'll usually want damage off of everything barring boots and the occasional GA.

Yes the same thing i said as u are trying to say now. Abyssal will be bad if it misses the hp regen and the big amount of mr!

The reason is that there isn't a great item for tanks that includes health and mana. Abyssal will do that job now.

Let me ask you this; what champion needed abyssal that wasn't better off with either new abyssal or with spirit visage?

Simply do not touch balanced things! u curse them! and they become broken or too weak or lacklester.
