But... doesn't Youmuu's have a worse active for marksmen than it does now? It doesn't give attack speed anymore like it used to, which was a good stat on most ranged champions. If you're talking about Jayce, that's because he's a hybrid ranged/melee and he's always been focused around armour penetration.

It used to literally be a worse active for ranged. If you were ranged it had a 4 second duration and if you were melee it had an 8 second duration.

Huh. Guess it was to balance out the attack speed bonus.

Melee's like attack speed too, especially since it helps for staying in melee range

Attack speed is a good stat on anyone who autoattacks...

Lack of attack speed doesn't make it a worse item on ranged than melee champions, just that ranged champions often can utilize it better because, well, range. Not having an advantage over one class doesn't make it a disadvantage...

Lord forbid adc's have useful items. We wouldn't a super strong role like that to get out of hand. Gosh, if they get much stronger, maybe it'll require TWO buttons to instagib them. WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO!?

Also, you misspelled scimitar....

Yeah, they only have like 13 good items left. This is absurdly low and riot needs to give them 30 more!

Well youmuu's has a pretty bad active now. All it does is help you reposition for half of a teamfight. Scimitar, however, is pretty damn strong on some marksmen, but I think that's more because they can ignore the cc to continue draintanking. Nerf lifesteal and it will be pretty balanced.

Scimitar is supposed to be an ADC item though.

Well back then Riot tried to make melee ADC viable.

Then they figured that renaming a class is easier

Honestly, if I wasn't looking at the Mercurial Scepter once in a while, I wouldn't know it has a speed buff.

It's just so unnoticeable.
