Hexdrinker & Maw are too strong of a counter to AP Mids

I can't wait for that mage update because it is so frustrating playing against these AD mids who don't have any mana gate and actually be able to fuck up your burst with 1300 gold. I wouldn't be so annoyed if APs still had DFG but since that item has been removed its a real struggle vs them.

Vladimir I've been relying on Vlad for fighting AD mids. Low CD means back to back harass so that the passive on Hex/maw doesn't just block a huge damage spell like it would vs Veigar but other than that, mages could use more than item 3157 to fight item 3156 item 3139

while i agree the issue is there. i actually like the new item 3156

rather than a nerf i would like to see an new AP item with armor and possibly some kind of active or unique passive specially, one that has mana regen on it as well

there needs to be equivalent item that AP users can get. item 3157 just doesn't cut it when you need mana

There can either be nerfs to the ad/mr items, or a release of a new ap/armor item. Either way, people will not be complaining any longer bout this issue.
