GA needs to go

Critmaster Garen·May 11, 2017·2 votes·606 views

the item is cancer, and youre not going to balance it by putting a slightly higher price tag on it. its not going to solve the problem that an entire class of champions whos only weakness is supposed to be burst damage has an item that entirely negates their counterplay without any tradeoff.

or we might aswell give juggernauts an ad/health item that lets them dash into your face like a diver.

how long is it going to take for you to change your mind on the item? do we need 3 ad teamcomps in the lcs with every carry running around with a second life?

This item is a massive buff for bruisers and Garen

Why would you want it removed?

its not a buff for bruisers. its on every single ad champion, which makes it neutral change in that sense.

plus, especially with bruisers like garen and darius with execute ults, the item is more useful on their opponents, than on the guys themselves.

in darius case it denies him his resets. in garens case he doesnt have much kill pressure after ulting, and theres a good chance he cant finish the guy off a second time.

What about making the res/invuln time faster?

I think resistances fit the item better anyway

I was the first one to point out that this change would be terrible for the game, but I got like -20 downvotes. Who the fuck thinks I am wrong now? You like Lee Sin, Riven, Yasuo, and Graves running around with GA's?? HMMMMMMMMMMMM? HMMMM?

wow, adding ad to an armor item ended up being cancer, who knew?

its not the ad + armor combination thats the problem, but the passive combined with the ad.

like if youd put atmas impaler back into the game right now, it wouldnt be nearly as bad as ga is.

well since atmas had health scaling, i figured that would be evident. =]

and yeah, when you for the first time introduce and ad/armor item and give it ga passive that scales with base hp and not max, yeah, it is gonna be cancer when squishy ad's get a direct counter item to ad assassins and divers.
