Guinsoos is too powerful

Title.

300 more gold cost doesn't magically fix the item.

There's a difference between "late game scaling item" and "hit a minion a couple times and then annihilate everything in 2 seconds afterwards"

Not even close.

They reduced the on board stats by half, but added two extremely powerful stats.

  1. On hit damage was changed from 15 Magic damage to 5 + 10% AP Magic damage and 5+10% AD Phys damage. That's easily a buff from 15 on hit damage to 70-80 On Hit damage.

  2. 24% Increased AP/AD VASTLY outscales the AP/AD it removed on board.

On a 400 AD champ, that's 96 AD Ginsoo's when charged. Over DOUBLE what it used to be. On a 900 AP champ, that's 177 AP it didn't have.

Furthermore, Ginsoo's is currently bugged on champions that have self amplifying damage, like Caitlyn Jhin MasterYi , and recursively calculates the AD/AP it adds. For example, Jhin at 6 stacks has 93% more AD than he had when the stacking started. That is NOT 24%. (You can actually get up to 2000 AD on Jhin, if you get infernal drakes and Janna)
