stuff that's either not in the game anymore such as dodge stacking, or stuff that doesn't work anymore because of a mechanic change (spellvamp+smite :(). Or dfg ap builds =(
i miss SO much going morde mid with spectral wraith, wota, smite, and gunblade. Think im dead? Na fam, smite for 800 hp. The good ol days =(

Elkington VI2 votesTanky on-hit builds (armor + AS &/or HP + AS items) Stacking aura items as a support HoG/Philo stone builds Wriggle's Lantern Frozen Mallet building from Phage
I also miss lifesteal not being so friggin expensive. I liked when Ravenous Hydra only built from vamp scepter and Tiamat. While Titanic Hydra isn't a bad alternative, it's just not the same and the new Ravenous Hydra is too expensive for me.
Funkin Dunkin1 votesHoly shit I forgot about aura builds. Why did those ever leave? I remember going Aura Taric a lot.

Ahri Body Pillow1 votesI'll tell you what shit I dont miss. AP DFG Tristana. my lord. INSTANT tilt. I would always go like 0-15 against her.
Mysticman891 votesAP caitlyn brought me a lot of joy and I don't think I'd believe how effective it was (as support) if I hadn't done it. People would step on cait traps just to clear them (since they didn't produce headshots as they do today), and then lose like half their health. Spicy nets too that discouraged people from chasing me fragile AP cait support self.
While AP MF is still a thing, it feels pretty weak compared to once upon a time when e could melt people.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesthis is new , never knew this happen ap cait ?
Mysticman891 votesI think that essentially no one did it contributed to it working, since people really should be able to avoid traps. Instead people would intentionally walk on them to clear them when no one was around since they were used to them doing negligible damage.
Old traps did a chunk of magic damage and had an AP ratio, so I'd have a field day with ludens and a bunch of AP and leave traps in jungle brush that people could only clear by walking on. Kind of similar to modern mao sapling cheese, but with even less counterplay. (I think I was a cait main at the time and was feeling silly with some chill folk so tried it for the lulz when I was support, and then was all 'wait what I have most damage to champs'.) The sheer ridiculousness of it probably contributes to why I enjoyed it so much.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesSo people should be able to avoid her traps? Yet so many cry how they can do anything against them and how oppressive they are... hmm
Interesting
1374341 votesWell old Caitlyn could only have 3 traps max, and in most typical builds they did basically no damage. You used them purely for the cc to help protect you from ganks.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesim aware and the were a worthless ability....
I think the entire ability needs to be gone... and give her something else...
Mysticman891 votes5 traps walling off an entire lane and procing spicy damage extra long range headshots (that scale with AD she's naturally going to be building) is probably more oppressive then 3 traps that might be able to block off a single jungle route (and scale with AP she conventionally won't be building).
Old caits traps were basically an early gank alert system and a way to check brush since they briefly gave vision in those days, rather than a significant part of her kit as they are now.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesyes I know sometimes I like to be the devils advocate on the boards to create more discuss over issues or ideas about the game.
however I think with out the headshot proc on them she wouldn't be viable or worth a damn as a pick sadly this is what allows her to be somewhat balanced.
I think the whole ability prior and now is shit... ( I am a Caitlyn player ) but you do what you can with what your given... I would be completely open for another ability in replacement of it ... what ? idk... just quick thought of the top of my head... have her W have like an ammo system ... you press it and then your next 4-5 shots are enhanced autos that do bonus damage or increased range ( something between jihn n graves kinda of thing ) maybe have them be armor piercing and have her ult as it... but if you use W while you have ult available the next shot is a "kill shot execute doing bonus damage on R but the bonus damage on R can crit while used with W , but with out having W the R is as current.
Funkin Dunkin1 votesWhat about AP 
with that massive shied? lol.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesYa know that might need to be the rework he needs. An ap caster marksmen
Funkin Dunkin1 votesIf you recall Ashe's W used to be AP based.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesno sorry i dont... her volly use to be ap ratio ?
i know her ult was always magic damage cuz it makes it do more damage for her cuz she is ad u build to stop her ad/crit but u dont have mr for the magic damage of ult
Funkin Dunkin1 votesYea they changed it because AP for W and R was just too much damage. I still build AP ashe for fun sometimes and the damage charts are still dead even with a regular AD build. Only thing is you need to actually hit your skill shot R lol
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesI think its stupid they took the gold passive away from her but draven, tf, gp can have theirs. I use to get the alvrice blade that gave you gold per unit killed that also granted crit on her while 3 early points into the e to snowball her income

lets get real here when the game is mostly about early/midgame, anything effective late game isn't going to matter

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesplaying garen with the old Death fire grasp item, void staff, sorc shoes full magic pen page and cdr and 1 shot any thing with ULT and DFG cuz it did magic damage and dfg amp the magic damage to a target and void staff and sorc shoes for magic pen
talk about being deleted
6Sfool1 votesAD Caster Varus. I miss the days of the .8 attack speed guy with the 1000 damage Q's. Now with the new mechanic you HAVE to get into AA range to kill someone in under a minute, and there's no more reward for great snipes.
Funkin Dunkin1 votesOld 
used to be a tank mage when his W gave him passive armor/MR. All you needed was 
, use W and BOOM! 200+ armor on a mage. Even his Q poke was something to stray from. Thought you were far enough? Q a minion then suddenly his 3 little clubs go flying outward and hit you. They've certainly fucked him up. No more passive armor/mr, no more range on Q, and his E is soft as baby shit.

KVbqbFsC8e1 votesNot really a build, but I miss being able to take Warlords on Nasus. The amount of sustain it gave you was hilarious.
Titanium701 votesOh Top+Mid AP? Time for Double Abysal + Double Ancient Will!
Nanuk Pihoqahiak1 votesDefinitely AP Yi before his changes. You would often kill someone from off the screen just by Alpha Striking minions as they came into lane, causing it to bounce up the wave for 1,500+ ranged harass. They harassed you, but didn't finish the job? You'd meditate back to full in 2 seconds, and give yourself 300 Armor and MR while meditating.
If you got one kill during a clustered team fight, it was basically over since Alpha Strike had massively high AP scaling and did somewhere around 1000 damage at full build, along with resetting.
