"Raptor Cloak doesn't build into anything. Sorry, Darius"
So why not just make a new item that uses it instead of fucking over Darius?

It's not just Darius, this change fucks over Nasus as well, and any other immobile melee that wants to split push. No more clutch saves from the speed boost when the enemy team is trying to collapse on you.
Remove Darius' lag compensation and I'll be accepting of buffs to him.
Its pretty fucking stupid that he can hook people who are far out of range or even untargetable.
Because every item they make for Raptor Cloak is either busted or garbage (Imagine if they made a item where they put raptor cloak with phage)
Because Darius doesnt matter.
Because riot loves nothing more than ruining top and melee champs as much as possible.
I feel Like they Could've Done Something Like This
Deadmans Plate
(60 Armor --> 50 Armor) Debateable it can be unchanged if you think the nerf to the movement speed from DREADNOUGHT compensates for the POINT RUNNER passive.
Health 425 (Unchanged)
UNIQUE – DREADNOUGHT: Generates a maximum of 100 Momentum stacks by moving, which grant up to 60 bonus movement speed. Momentum decays while Stun icon immobilized or Silence iconDisarm icon pacified. (60 Movement to Like 50 or 40)
UNIQUE – CRUSHING BLOW: Basic attacks discharge all stacks to deal (1 per stack) bonus magic damage on-hit, up to 100. Basic attacks at 100 stacks also Slow icon slow by 50% for 1 second. (Unchanged)
Unique - Point Runner Increases Movement Speed by 20% Or 10% depending on the nerf to the DREADNOUGHT Passive.
Then Change the Item components to Raptors Cloak GIants Belt.
This would allow Deadmans to stay where it is as a fairly balanced item but allows people to build raptor early (Darius) for its passive.
idk something I just thought up in 2 seconds
I just don't get why they took all that time balancing Zzrot and when it's been balanced for months just randomly decided to remove it. Like sure, not a whole lot of people built it but it was being built on a few champions... It had a home, there was no reason to remove it.
Alas, poor Yorick. You're playstyle isn't welcome anymore.
fuck darius.
TIL Darius builds raptor cloak
It’s quite likely that he’ll receive a compensational 5-10 base MS buff in a patch or two. Still a shame that raptor cloak is gone though; it’s passive was pretty interesting.
Fuck Riot.... :(
