Now, first of all, this is NOT a QQ thread - I did not get beaten by someone using this.
The issue with this item is that due to it's nature and it's synergy with late game champions (udyr, yi, warwick, shyvana), riot assumes that it is going to be a late game item... but with dragon/scuttle crab, you can sate it soo fast. Legit, one time I got sated at 16:30 with shyvana (i dont know how). Cinderhulk i thought was supposed to be the mid game item... not devourer

dragon with minimal help lvl 3,5,7 easy solo there after 4 dragons by lvl 10 if you work it right easy sated pre 15 min mark and I am no pro jungler but his pace is not even the fastest clear like

really.....really?as a champ I play...well its a bit of overkill with him,
..10 min in...GG thanks for playin
HaIlMonitor2 votesHow do you get sated by 10 minutes when you usually have enough gold to buy devour around 7 minutes? that is one dragon, two scuttles, and eleven camps lol. You can get devour fast if you get some early kills or whatever but 20 minutes is usually normal unless you are really fed then saying sated is op is redundant.
PS my fastest time is pre 15 (I got a FB/tripple kill in bot lane and started stacking really fast.)
karruck1 voteslol got lucky as hell...probably never happen again in a million ggames multiple kills very early while moving jg to jg...other team didnt have a jnglr...odd butt they did have 3 adc's so weak early but got nasty at the end but it was a fun game

A Miss Fortune1 votesI can usually get Sated with Poppy around 15 - 16 minutes on average. Just get kills or assists and camp bot lane like It's the only lane in the game.
Slamurai Jack1 votesI don't know why people keep saying Riot intended Sated as a late game item. I've never seen Riot say that but people keep repeating it. If anything, it's a mid game power spike item that falls off as the game goes on, particularly on Sated-Botrk users.
TurquoiseYoshi2 votesRiot said it as justification for the Cinderhulk changes in 5.16.
Slamurai Jack1 votesWhere? All I see is them saying they thought it was too strong late game for a class of champions that are already strong late game, but they don't want to straight nerf the item so they buffed it's mid game power to compete with Sated Devourer and Runeglaive. Nowhere in there do they say Sated is a late game item. They don't say that in the Sated Devourer patch either so I feel like ya'll are just grasping at straws.

Look in the section about Cinderhulk.
A Miss Fortune1 votesSated is late game due to It's synergy with most items. Like Kayle for example who will 1v5 your team in less than a couple of seconds while literally taking 0 damage the entire fight. Kayle isn't even the worst case, Yi can output 900+ true damage to every individual member of your team, and Xin Zhao...is just as broken as he normally is except he kills you with even less counterplay now.
Even Sated AD Janna Jungle is freelo (I've played it a lot) since late game she'll end up two shotting most people due to how well Sated synergizes with items.
