Yeah, because melee assassins need to feel like tanks with 100-0 1s combos when you play as a mage.

Still doesn't explain why this buff should happen considering there are plenty of assassin items that grant both MR and damage. Oh ...also Merc Threads so yea 'just CC them' won't be as effective.

Fighter. Maw of malmortus is a fighter item.

Which is mainly bought by assassins.

And? Doesnt mean its an assassin item. Is cleaver an assassin item? Is trinity farce a marksman item?

Go home and work on your logic.

So there's an item which is bought by assassins, balanced around assassins using it, but not an assassin item.

So I’d call Duskblade and Yasumos assassin items, but this? Not so much. The item excels at extended trades, not in and out that assassins do. It’s okay on assassins, but it’s strength is with fighters

Not an assassin item
its an item shield, not a karma lulu janna one
90 second cooldown, unlike enchanters who have it every 3-4 seconds (that also grant bonuses btw) for the low low cost of $free.99

Sorry, there needs to be a counter against 100-0 assassin combos in 0.1 s followed by sustained damage too in case the combo fails to kill the target ...trend which a lot seem to want it back for some reason.

They're nerfing "support" type shield duration like janna karma lulu etc

Honestly I hate Maw as much as the next person but it has absolutely nothing to do with support shield duration. Still a 5 second shield is too much imo, especially for an item that cucks AP already.

More of a bruiser item tbh

not just assassins i find it very useful against any ap champion

Yeah, by seeing the comments I understand that both Riot and players want to turn this game into an assassin clown fest. Good thing this will just kill the game since it will turn it into a frustration and tilt pool.
