If you take a look at the Marksman itemization changes, here's the basic idea of what happened to the big ADC items: item 3031 AD nerfed item 3508 AD nerfed, Crit added, able to have up to 30%CDR with another item 3086 item item 3153 On-hit damage nerfed item 3046 AS nerfed, Crit chance nerfed, takes 12% less damage from one enemy item 3085 AS nerfed, made a item 3086 upgrade, bolts can crit... but now deal only 25% of AD from 50% item 3087 AS nerfed, Crit buffed, damage scales with level and hits more targets item 3094 item 3086 upgrade good for sieging item 3036 basically +15% damage against everything but other marksmen item 3033 made sustain champs a bit weaker item 3035 Effect only on bonus armor, not as good item 3139 Small AD nerf, 10% lifesteal (meant as counter to item 3075) item 3072 Small AD nerf item 3078 Main changes are CDR in the place of AP, AS nerf, Crit buff, small AD nerf item 3812 No AS or Crit, item for caster marksmen with AD scaling and AD casters in general, delays 12% of damage over 3 seconds

These items still suck. They are not OP. Graves MissFortune have been overtuned in their reworks. item 3812 is not OP.

Yasuo Tryndamere may have benefited from the item changes but are strong only because of the new masteries.

Now let's look at our favorite health items. item 3143 item 3068 item 3083 item 3102 item 3065 have received buffs to their health. All the other health items are either already good, or were AD+health items. item 3065 item 3102 had their MR bumped up to 70, approaching the MR of the Season 2 item Force of Nature (it made tanks unkillable).

item 3153 has been nerfed, health has been buffed, KogMaw is trash now. Therefore, tanks are the OP class now.
