They just wanted to gut fiddlesticks. He went from 55% winrate to 50% winrate with this new "jungle diversity" item. I don't disagree with gutting fiddlesticks, but disguising it as an item that would provide more jungle diversity? Please... If that was your goal, you shouldn't have made the item specifically for sheen-proccers. The person who thought of making it build out of sheen should be sent to another department that has nothing to do with gameplay. Maybe the lore department, seems like there is no one over there atm anyways.

its not hard to build an 80, or however much ap magus gave, item and also have an actual second summoner

ignite sucks. the hp provided by smite far surpassed the dmg done by ignite

but ignite also has prk which is reduced healing.

But yea, removing magus was bad idea.

I kinda like the new diversity with smite, but it's probably getting a little too out of hand...

You can buy items that aren't Magus.

Like for 50 extra gold, you can buy Magus without needing Smite in an item called Morellonomicon, and you have the freedom to run a Summoner Spell that is better than Smite in the lane. Like Exhaust basically is a combination of the two Smite bonuses you could consider buying on a laner, and a better version at that.
