PBE Black Cleaver changes (buffs)

So BC is losing 10 AD and 10 flat penetration in exchange for +10% cdr, +200% hp, +2 secs of shred, +5% max shred, +rage passive I REALLY want this to make it live, but personally I think it's going to be OP. 3k gold for everything that it gives you is such a great deal... I mean you get tank stats, most of the cdr you will want on a bruiser + Spirit Visage and runes/masteries, team utility with armor shred, late game potential with %shred, and chasing power.

... Thoughts?

New BC:

The Black Cleaver Item Cost: 3000 Recipe Cost: 825 +400 Health +40 Attack Damage +20% Cooldown Reduction

UNIQUE Passive: Dealing physical damage to an enemy champion Cleaves them, reducing their Armor by 5% for 6 seconds (stacks up to 6 times, up to 30%).
UNIQUE Passive - Rage: Dealing physical damage grants 20 movement speed for 2 seconds. Assists on Cleaved enemy champions or kills on any unit grant 80 movement speed for 4 seconds instead. This Movement Speed is halved for ranged champions.

(Unique Passives with the same name don't stack.) 

Old BC:

The Black Cleaver Item Cost: 3000 Recipe Cost: 1263 +200 Health +50 Attack Damage +10% Cooldown Reduction

UNIQUE Passive: +10 Armor Penetration
Passive: Dealing physical damage to an enemy champion reduces their Armor by 5% for 4 seconds (stacks up to 5 times, up to 25%).

(Armor Penetration: Physical damage is increased by ignoring an amount of the target's Armor equal to Armor Penetration.)

I'm in full support of phasing out flat Pen. It's a terrible, ass-backwards stat. Super enthused about Phage becoming relevant too.

The Legendary Second Phage Item at last. And Randuin's Omen "steals" attack speed on use?

Some people who enjoyed stacking Long Swords and making multiple Brutalizers may dislike the change.

Urgot Garen come to mind, anyone else who can stack the passive fast?

The problem is, we don't know exactly what the new Black Cleaver builds out of.
