item 3124

This item. No one ever uses this item.

Kayle Jax Evelynn Warwick ???

No, don't even lie. No one uses this item. It's **way ** too niche, especially since going hybrid isn't as good as going either AP or AD nowadays. We shouldn't just get rid of it, however. That would be lazy. This item can have it's rightful place. Now, this can be done in a variety of ways, but this is what I'm proposing:

Guinsoo's Rageblade ..............item 3124 ............

(Item cost: 3500) (Builds out of item 3091 and item 1057 )

- 80 Magic Resist - 50% Attack Speed UNIQUE: Deals an extra 42 (+ 25% of your bonus Magic Resist) on-hit. UNIQUE: Basic attacks (and on-hit) steal 5 Magic Resist from your target and increase your attack speed by 5% for 8 seconds, stacking up to a maximum of 8. ( 40 Magic Resist stolen and 40% more attack speed.)

It's a defensive option that can give you a lot of magic damage on-hit. I can see this being pretty good on:

JaxWarwick

and also Devourer junglers (oh no!)

Thoughts or personal suggestions on how to improve Rageblade?

Ehh, I'd like to keep the Surge passive just buff everything that is on Guinsoo's Rageblade. Its raw stats is terrible, needs to be buffed to similar power as Gunblade so people actually buy it. Its passive would be great if its raw stats weren't so bad for late game or mid game.

I play kayle and evelynn personally and never touch this item. Just doesn't ever interest me. I can just get a different item and it would be more useful.

rageblade just got a big indirect buff, although it's fairly obscure so I don't think it's been discovered widely yet. sterak's and rageblade's mechanics combine really well, both items tend to activate under the same circumstances, with sterak's shield mitigating rageblade's weakness of only activating at less than half health.

buffs i think would be best are either a low amount of constant leech, like 3% of damage leeched as health, or just make the active controllable, with an 80 second cd.

It's pretty decent as a fourth item on Kayle, provided your third item is a Runaan's.

Even then, other items are better, but I like to get it for the style point.
