Let's Talk Hurricane

Okay, before Riot said this is an ADCs dream item, that was meant for fun. Now hold it here, "for fun". Serious? This is a competitive, the item is not fun when you cannot even use it. Where as it's counter part is so strong and it's so weak. So you want ADCs to always get the same items, okay. There are 3 major errors with this item that makes it un-viable. I'll name them:

  1. It's stats are pretty trashy, give it some damage or life steal. Possibly

20AD 60% Atk Spd

OR

10% Life Steal 70% Atk Spd

  1. The items passive sucks. Let me explain why, there needs to be enemies bunched up for the other shots you hit. What the passive needs to the two shots to be skillshots on your auto attack, they go in two different directions and go longer than your auto attack. Making it's aoe as good as hydras.

  2. It needs an active, it needs to be able to have an active that damages the target champion and applies on-hit effects, like an auto attack. However, it doesn't apply life steal, cause that would be too op.

What would this do? Potentially bring back champions such as Ashe, Trist, Koggles, etc. Also it would make on-hit builds better.

I think if it would give ad/as instead of only as, it would be a better choice for ranged aa champs that don't go for crit.

It definitly needs better targeting.
Currently it hits up to 2 random targets in a ~400aoe around the main target.
If it would aditionally also hit targets in a ~400aoe around ur self, so u could hit a squishy on maxrange and still deal some dmg to the tank in ur face, it would already be much better.

It would also help if the aditional bolts would priorize champs aslong as ur maintarget is a champ aswell, so the aoe isn't wasted on minions in a clash.

I also would love a active that shoots bolts at all enemies in ~700 range, dealing the 10+0.5ad dmg with on-hit on a short cd, so it would ad a bit to ur burst like hydra, wich would suite champs like graves who can use it for faster E reset and also more burst then.

I think they should just make the other 2 arrows fly, even if there is only one enemy. The other 2 arrows will then count as skill shots and anyone who walks into them gets damage.
Also, the other 2 arrows should be able to crit.

The Hurrican problem is, if you are an ad carry and you re attacking 3 target in your range probably you are dead. (if you arent Twitch or KogMaw) If you re attacking one target, probably you should to take phantom dancer. Best way to resolve this problem:

  1. Passive: Whn your basic attack hits a target, fire minor bolts at 2 other target in X range from hitten target.
