Why are all zeal items so cheap (not a rant)?

Zero Skill Tank··1 votes·442 views

I just wonder. On Teemo I sometimes do item 3146 item 3031 item 3046 item 3085 item 3087 item 3139 build, and if the game is long I'm left with few thounsand gold spare, and I would gladly sell something cheap for something more slot efficient, but there isn't really anything that would be close to function of zeal items, but like 3.2k gold. But there is no such item.

I find it silly, because crit builds are supposed to be lategame stuff.

Doesn't matter if its mid or late game, crits are always good ;)

Yeah, but Zeal items are supposed to be for AD carries, class that is suppose to have the most gold, and be the most gold dependant. Meanwhile they are among cheapest items in the game. That's what i can't get.

Zeal is designed mainly for taking advantage of a champion's power spikes a bit better. The mix of attack speed and crit makes it a great buy after grabbing an early item 1038.

crits arent worth anything if you have low ad

also you can just look at gold efficiency. without making them much less gold efficient they have a pretty reasonable cost all around 2600.

Gold efficiency never tells whole story. DPS/gold ratio of crit surpasses DPS/gold of AD with just a single AD item.

But this is not the point of the topic, I don't mind zeal items being cheap, I just wonder why there isn't some kind of lategame zeal item with say 3.2 gold worth of stats. If game drags and I get tons of gold, I'd often think of selling items for more slot efficient ones, but there isn't really AS/crit item that I could replace zeal items with.

tanks dont get none of that ish juggernauts or fighters either it would be pretty stupid of riot to put out a set of items no one else can deal with or it will be the first 3 months of season 6 again with 5 adc teams
