Cause normally by the time you want it, your team has a big enough tank that no one needs it. Also hard to plan that far in advance for when you'll need it, you have to commit a whole 2000 gold that you could spend on something else.

I want to build this on irelia now lol

Yeah. Any other item.

Actually, tho, for "disabling" towers, it's more gold effective to get SFC/DMP/RO and just face tank it. Even point runner is available in zz'rot, and those little voidlings face tank turrets for you, also.

I doubt that's the case since when you deactivate the turrets you do reset their ramping damage don't you?

So that's 2 seconds + reduced damage for the next several shots WHILE you attack someone under tower

Turret fire rate is less that 1 per second, so on a non laser turret, the best use case is to block two turret shots from those, and then by the time inhib turrets are in contention, a dive is either free because you are so far ahead, or 2 seconds wouldn't make a major difference.

Also, turrets can't have their "heat up" value reset as of 6.9

this was from changing targets though, this item disables them completely I think. :D time to test

You forget that it resets the turret's scaling damage.

During a long dive, ohmwrecker can be triggered to reset the scaling on the turret.

compared to what

tower diving is already pretty easy for the tanky champions that are suppose to benefit from it. i'm sure if your a tanky support like blitzcrank you can go ahead and try it but its pretty niche.

I want to benefit even harder

or you can just pick Bard and ult turrets to dive behind them to fight

i recently picked up bard of late kinda trolled my way into it by taking the mid laners champ in champ select cuz he was an asshat and he picked bard and we swapped last second. i main supports. bard is a scaling support who gets stronger as the game goes. i have a record of 15-10 with bard. which is a 60% win rate. I find more success playing bard as an off tank. going 0-18-12 with item 2045 item 3158 item 3069 item 3512 item 3060 and whatever 6th item needed for game.

I want to love Ohmwrecker, especially on Taric, but as a support, I find that by the time I get it, there's really no need to disable turrets anymore, as they're either destroyed or your tanks can take the hits. I find Zz'Rot to be a better option for the duo defenses, point runner, and that active.
