So are people actually okay with Duskblade + Stormrazor combo for Assassins?

We all knew this supposed Marksmen item would be taken on Assassins and now Nocturne, Kha'Zix, Rengar, idk who else all abuse the shit out of it. This is coming from an assassin main btw so no bias here, just admitting what other Assassin mains won't: Our class is stupid strong right now.

I'm just surprised to see nobody complaining about this combo right now.

Make item 3095 marksmen only could be a start, since it was meant to be a marksmen items in the first place. Then make item 3147 melee only.

Someone is going to say "but vlad is op"

yea vlad is like one mage that has no mana, inf sustain, spell that makes him untarg and a teamfight ult which aside from the ult it really does not represent mages at all.

Quinn is fucking insane with these items.

Assassins are not okay.

It has a significant fall-off once armor gets built and when you cease to supplement the bonus crit damage as there is very little reason to buy attack speed + crit through zeals when AD is far more important. Ninja Tabi plays a huge part in mitigating both instances of bonus damage.

I believe Stormrazor may actually be bugged on melee champions; according to a recent gif (courtesy of Yenn) of a Nocturne ulting then autoing a Jhin, the Warrior+Duskblade+Stormrazor auto did significantly more damage than the ult itself. With just those items and no resistances, the damage should be at least 344 compared to the 533 Nocturne gets at 11 with ult alone. Assuming 100 base AD: the auto should deal 504 damage and the ult should deal 653.

It's not a core combo on any Assassin. No Assassin builds Stormrazor aside from Rengar and Nocturne and neither of those characters build the combo that often to begin with.
