What are the chances it just reverts Sunfire Cape back to it's pre-nerf state?

RalanrAug 9, 20172 votes

If that happens I need to choke a bitch.

EndlessSorcererAug 9, 20173 votes

I'm not sure you'll have the opportunity.

I have rather large hands and there won't be much room to spare.

RalanrAug 9, 20171 votes

Fine, I'll take my bat into their crotch.

some of these make no sense... he's a blacksmith not a tailor! How does hammering on a hat or a cape make them better?

SanKakUAug 8, 20171 votes

Yeah.

AlienPrimateAug 8, 20173 votes

The hat I'm not sure, but sunfire cape clearly has pauldrons attached to it.

LankPantsAug 8, 20174 votes

But we could replace Sunfire Cape with a shield (Omen) or a plate (DMP) and he won't ever have to go within 10 feet of a tailor. I'd also say it's better from a gameplay perspective considering jungle tanks aren't bared from these items and people actually build them.

As for the hat, your choices for AP are a hat, a book, a gun, whatever the fuck Banshee's is and a belt with rockets strapped to it. The only things that would make a modicum of sense are the staffs and sceptres and maybe Hourglass at a stretch. Even then if my Blacksmith handed me this item 3135 I'd wonder what substances he was on. I'd still like to see it changed though, considering Deathcap's pretty much a noobtrap of an item at this point.

It's an angry hat. Needs a good hammering to get it to do what you want.

TimX24968BAug 8, 20171 votes

we need more than that, though.

I like how his name basically sounds like "blacksmith." ######(The name is Blake Smith)

Warlord RhinarkAug 7, 20175 votes

Wait. They're gutting Sunfire cape?

RalanrAug 7, 201716 votes

It's not as good as it used to be.

And A Real HieroAug 7, 20179 votes

This, after thornmail rework I don't buy that garbage item anymore.

AirKingNeoAug 8, 20175 votes

Why even buy Thornmail? It's a complete noob trap that only has Bramble Vest which is overpowered.

notice me Sin piAug 8, 20174 votes

i'd still buy thornmail if enemy carry has item 3072 item 3812 item 3153 item 2140 along with enemy soraka support using item 3504

Sun Wu RyuumokuAug 8, 20176 votes

his point still stand

notice me Sin piAug 8, 20173 votes

so basically it's tank version of item 3155 ?

Sun Wu RyuumokuAug 8, 20171 votes

yeah (i want to say even stronger)

AirKingNeoAug 8, 20172 votes

Because no AD carry is building that much lifesteal?

And A Real HieroAug 8, 20171 votes

I usually build bramble first item, then rush a titanic Hydra. If I'm up against a full AD team (most of the time) I'll finish thornmail second. I don't care about the return damage, the grievous wounds application is just amazing.

Auz the RipperAug 8, 20173 votes

gutted, past tense.

FilDaFunkAug 8, 20172 votes

Also future tense, since verb - will be gutted.

Glory ln DeathAug 8, 20171 votes

Future tense would be "will gut" in this case, since Riot is the subject, not Sunfire Cape.

AwesomeGuyDjAug 8, 20171 votes

Wait they already did and its completely useless now on most champions besides nautilus who cant clear with just e?

GrReaper96Aug 8, 20171 votes

I mean cinderhulk is still pretty ok i guess for that % bonus hp, but sunfire is just a huge waste of gold now

Mysticman89Aug 8, 20175 votes

Perhaps ornn sunfire cape is prenerf sunfire.

I Am RaviAug 8, 20174 votes

He should have been made to also upgrade Ohmwrecker, i mean they were looking for an excuse to do something with it and now here's a good chance.

OyddAWqJ5rAug 8, 20173 votes

Maybe it will deal 300% to monsters instead of 200% lmfao

Need Gold 4 TentAug 8, 20177 votes

Actually... that could be OP. Very OP. Yorick item 3068 item 3512 item 3748 You better not be leaving lane unless you wanna open top.

Or perhaps Singed item 3068 item 3075 item 3512 item 3060

FireDrizzleAug 9, 20172 votes

I think sunfire and titanic is overkill for waveclear personally.

Need Gold 4 TentAug 9, 20171 votes

Clear it, go behind turret, proxy that, then go behind that and proxy that. Or go to the nexus turrets and draw all 3 waves to yourself ahahahaha

RalanrAug 7, 20172 votes

He can upgrade it you say? How so?

I still build it as it does help for tower pushing. I wish the range was bigger though.

Ben SharpioAug 7, 20172 votes

he can upgrade: IE, Trinity, deathcap, Black cleaver, sunfire , locket and redemption item 3001

Yellow HerbAug 7, 20171 votes

Source?

RalanrAug 7, 20171 votes

I know that. I want to know the upgrade.

Ben SharpioAug 7, 20172 votes

statelesskillerAug 7, 20171 votes

one of the rioters on team 5 (the team responsible for ornn) posted this on twitter. can confirm this is all true

Solari FortuneAug 7, 20171 votes

basically for 1000G Ornn (has to be on your team) will upgrade it to have better stats/effect. about 1000G worth of stats. We don't know yet what exactly will be changed

TheBurningAshesAug 8, 20171 votes

Personally I'm really curious on how big of an upgrade he gives to =specific items. I have like 11k IP so If I like what I see, I may get him. Imagine IE that does 5% more crit damage or rabadon giving 40% ap. . .Hell even crystals staff slows 25% or even adds 1 second to slow would be crazy.

GrReaper96Aug 8, 20172 votes

The only upgradable AP item is Rabadons, which kinda sucks
