items that dont offer combat stats, but offer obj taking.

should they exist? do you want more of them?

consider zzrot, ohmwrecker, and banner of command.

please tell me why theres only 3 items which can be used for their obj capabilities and why they have to be kept so dumpster in relation to every other item in the game.

because riot doesn't want you playing the obj, they want you playing for the team fight and the "1v1 outplay"

on a fundamental level, strategy items are kept down to prevent strategy plays.

riot wants you incapable of soloing objectives like baron and dragon and instead wants it to be a 5v5, all the time. thats why items like bork and liandries have damage caps against obj enemies. so you dont have the capability to take objectives.

so tell me, why are there no throw away items or gold sinks to try to alter fundamentals, why is there such a heavy emphasis on combat stats on every single item.

how would you feel about a 0 stat item but every 2minutes could wall off an area for several seconds. items like that would add a layer of complexity and thought, would you want to sacrifice your team fighting and instead get the opportunity to separate the enemy or prevent an objective contest? who knows!

but the point is the reason there are so few of these strategy items is because riot doesn't want you to think about the game or have to understand positioning, warding, or man advantage. those things aren't real or relevant in their eyes. that makes the game "boring".
