Do Not Delete Frozen Mallet

This is about the original comment by Xypherous~

The last thing we need is less itemization in this game.

It's bad enough that atma's impaler was virtually deleted from the game, there is absolutely no reason to take this item away just because you think it's mediocre and you can't be bothered to rework it.

If you believe it's mediocre and don't want to rework it just leave it? There's no harm done by leaving it in the game.

So long as ridiculously high mobility exists, a means to permaslow must also exist.

Botrk and Randuins active are not reliable to take down the following champions, Mallet is the only way to lock them down as some of them are far too mobile to be caught with red buff (speaking from experience).

  • Udyr
  • Quinn
  • Eve
  • Nidalee
  • Tryndamere
  • Singed
  • Shyvana
  • Mundo
  • Lulu

Needs to be an option to change it. I don't like the build path to it personally.

IF they removed it they would replace it with another item / itemS. So I'm pro removal.
I haven't bought that item since season 3 and haven't found reason to.
I'd much rather have an item that gives me movement speed when I'm attacked, or when I walk towards an enemy.

The primary problem I find with it is that it gives no resistances. Personally, I'd like to see something like Wit's End on it. Say... "Unique Passive - Icy Buildup: Basic attacks grant you 5 Armor for 5 seconds (stacking up to 5 times) and slow enemy movement by 8% for 4 seconds (stacking up to 5 times)."

Give it armor, in exchange for the 40% slow taking time to build up. Maybe even make it melee only, since marksmen got a recent buff, melee's need a little love too.
