Blade of the Ruined King Discussion

The item seems pretty unpopular these days.

Lets talk about gold efficiency

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Blade_of_the_Ruined_King

25 attack damage = 875 Gold 10% life steal = 375 Gold 40% attack speed = 1000 Gold 10 on-hit damage = 250 Gold

For the item to be considered 100% gold efficient, the passive and active would need to have a combined gold value of 900

Now the reason I bring this up is because you would think that with SOTA mastery and the increased tank meta this item would become more meta.... but it hasn't.

Discuss! =)

The tank meta is mostly because imo people aren't building black cleaver as much anymore. They aren't as tanky in term of HP.

I personally think it's not BotRK the prob but the season that screwed up the role of ADC ... with the leauge filled with assassin and ista dmg tank a BotRK it's just a very situational item that work on very few champ.

I'm plaing a bit of ADC lately and i rarely build LS item at all since they are pointless anycase ..... when enemy team got a zed ( 100 to 0 you in 1 combo ) or a Malp ( 0 dmg at all if the crit don't proc ) LS item feel pointless

It still work well on champ like Vayne, Varus and Kog since they get huge scaling on AS but asaide them i never used it on other ADC

There is to say that it still works on some champ that are able to survive long enough to benefit from the passive and the LS ( eg. Jax, Akali, Shiv )
