Why even play ADC when Fighters get Infinity Edge at level 1?
No seriously.
In its current state Infinity Edge is just a discount Conqueror. There aren't even tanks to use it on.
Heck its not even guaranteed true damage, its a 60% chance of dealing 15% true damage on critical strikes, if you can even make it to 30~ minutes to afford the item, by which the game is already decided.
I'm also not sure why the Zeal line is now worth 2900 gold each, seriously who the fuck would buy any of those items?
exists.
Its worth just 300 more gold, it gives guaranteed critical strikes, attack damage and a 10% movement speed burst. The item components it builds out of are actually useful. Its the item that gives you the most impact early on because the game will end in less than 30 minutes anyway.
Everyone is stuck with whichever optimal cookie-cutter build gives them the most impact early game. This applies to all roles. There are no optional items you would buy in a game that's so fast and snowbally. Its just buy X, Y and sometimes you might be able to buy Z. There is no chance for build diversity when the game is in this state.
I don't know what to expect if the game can shift so easily in a month. Scuttle Crab made its own meta, now we're in a weird Bruiser/Mage/ADC bot lane meta, **and then next month some other can of worms is going to be opened. ** Every month for the rest of the year. Sorry I'm just venting..
