Guinsoo's????

How is doing? It feels a lot worse than before, mostly due to the huge cost increase, but I still feel like it's core on and is useful on others, like for example.

Is it really worth the same amount as though?

It's a nice item but other than Kog, Kayle and maybe Jax I wouldn't really use it. Even Jax it's pushing it now that Triforce just gives such good attack speed. The item is still a bit too expensive for what it gives and it also doesn't help that the champions that benefit from it aren't in the meta.

I think the stats are a mess. I personally, don't like that they made the recurve bow, a component item, only to lose the AS you build when you complete the item. It also favors the ranged AS much more than it does, with melee.

It Could work on kog and kayle. (I think) But at the moment, the old phantom hit passive, Can't really help the majority of AS champs, because it's locked behind a ton of AP and AD that many of those champs don't need.

It feels worse than before because it is worse than before.

That is not necessarily a bad thing, the old post rework Guinsoo's was too strong.

Its niche (AS heavy AP/AD on-hit hybrid) is always going to be a small one. If the item ever becomes super popular that should be an indication that something is wrong with it.

It was overpowered before but now it's underpowered really.

I feel like they need to make melees get stacks quicker first of all and see how the item is after they do that. Either make melees only need 3 autos to get full stacks or make the attack speed (or half of it) a static thing and not tied into stacks at all. Right now it's really only built on ranged champions for a good reason.
