Do you critically think about things before you post them? I don't care what level 17 champions you put against 5 level 10 adc's with no items. It's gonna look busted.

Spear of shoji is bad against adc's. I repeat, spear of shoji is bad against adc's. It's flat damage reduction, it's worthless against 800+ crits from high ad itemization, it is however extremely good against lower AD autoattacks like bruisers or on-hit.

you can see in the video even adding 1 bf sword made him get dropped.

those 800 damage crits will be reduced next patch.

it will turn 600 damage crits into 500 or 400 damage crits, so thats pretty nice.

still. the damage reduction is applied before resistances, and not after. plus, there is the true damage conversion from infinity edge, so it will still be less than just 100 flat damage off with 3 people around. another question is, if its even more effective than another armor item like sunfire cape or thornmail, that also add some damage.

i think its most useful against attack speed/on hit builds. its going to be a great counter to someone just rushing item 3124 or item 3153

otherwise it seems ok, but not crazy.

Yeah definitely. Reducing 600 damage autos to 400 is a thing, but reducing 200 damage autos to 0 is what's really powerful with the item. It can be very powerful to completely ignore tanks damage. (especially since it also works on spells I believe)

Oh boy more Vandiril videos being used by people who think they are realistic situations they will ever have in games.

Vandiril videos, while they could happen, are extremely unlikely to do so. Like his "No CD Veigar W" video. Do you think that people will get 2800+ stacks every game?

Vandiril's videos are done for the purpose of enjoyment. How many games will you see -1290 armor Malphite?

I remember a game I played in bronze as Malphite vs a full AD team (only had Nami for magic damage). I reached like 1,1k armor that game. I would just dive them in the nexus towers 1v5, kill them all if they didn't run (Iceborn Gauntlet LUL) and only take like half my HP as damage.

Pretty sure none of those ADC's had items. May or may not be representative of ADC's in your games.

they all had stingers. the goal was to make them attack as fast as possible while staying under the spear passive threshold with the damage of the individual attacks.

yea, its not even close to realistic.

Not sure if trolling or stupid.
