Custom item sets gone. Everyone loses their minds. Strength of the Ages gone, but useless Bond of Stone stays in the game no one bats an eye. http://s.quickmeme.com/img/10/10f38cd121df7f0bcce42c5f19e8dbfc3790d20282aefdef975dd003a557c312.jpg
Just write your list of items irl on a notepad.
And the majority of tank support that were still using Bond of Stone will instead use the new mastery since the new tank support item will do what Bond of Stone does. :)
Braum+ Knights Vow+ Locket+ Phantom Dancer(on adc)+ Bond of stone = Adc never dies
I'd complain about the removal of SoA, seeing as I just got a nice Mastery page with it
This seems familiar to the last Masteries change
I don't know enough about balance to talk about balance changes. I'm not a math major that can calculate damage dealt/taken outcomes over periods of time with all variables taken into account. The game is kind of a chaos-theory style to that end, because another player chooses a reaction to an action, which isn't even accurately predictable.
But I do know some people use item sets. It isn't some great strategic advantage in the game for them, it's just a convenience.
Why would you remove an optional convenience from the game? It's not a logical decision.
Actually bond of stone has some usefulness if you're against a poke lane it keeps the poke that lands on your adc down sometimes by the time i leave lane i've absorbed 500-600 damage for them
