did attack speed get nerfed across the board?

im just starting to get back into playing again, and it feels like AS is so weak now than what it was 6 months ago

did something happen? Zephyr got removed, but did AS as a mechnic get changed or something? It just feels soooo off

You should quit again. Too much change for you to handle.

item 3153 nerfed. not seen very often these days. not even vayne wants it first anymore. a niche on devourer junglers or as a 3rd+ item

item 3078 lost half its attack rate and its ap and movement speed. gained cdr and crit

item 3078 item 3153 builds entirely disappeared

Zephyr gone.

item 3046 attack rate is lower. completed zeal items generally have lower attack speed.

item 3085 made to be less of a pure on-hit build item, losing attack rate gaining crit

However item 3124 is now pretty good for melee auto attackers.

item 3101 a little better lol. But only builds into nashors

Also item 3086 itself better. Smoothing out the ADC's powercurves somewhat

I kinda miss Zephyr. Even though it was super niche.

You know, I don't understand why we cannot have an attack speed - tank item whatsoever.

Yes it did. There's overall a fair bit less AS in the game than there was before, as well as less AD on adc items in exchange for more crit.

But attack speed DOES come on more options.

Slamurai Jack1 votes

Sure, but there being less overall in the game does hurt the champions that really liked AS. That in combination with less AD in the game hurts some champions more than others, namely Yasuo. He benefits slightly more the greater amount of crit in the game but is hurt immensely by how much less AS and AD is in the game.
