I think CDR is too available.

I remember back in the day when Riven had to take CDR runes to get max cdr and fizz took cdr runes, now every item and its uncle has cdr on it.

This was Riot's intention, they even shaped the mage meta around cdr by giving cd nerfs. Classic examples: Vladimir Swain Fizz

I still take CDR blues on my assassins. Specifically the scaling ones and only enough for 10%. It helps me free up an item slot for some other utility and/or raw damage and lets me not get CDR boots. I hate CDR boots on assassins

Because items like item 3071 exists. Best of every fucking worlds. Built on every single AD champion in the game with absolutely no counterplay and no cons.

I just think we need to remove 20% cdr items.

Riot's ideology was decrease damage>decrease CD. That means in theory you should not get one shot by a lux, but she will be able to cast more spells on you allowing for a shorter burst time. instead of Q E R it's Q E, wait Q E R (in theory) Which is something that actually makes sense. It gives you more time to back off and respond.

THIS!!! Was about to make a post like this. Almost every item had CDR. Back then, 40% CDR was something few people aimed for because their core items didn't possess it. Now almost every item has CDR. Mid lane? 40% CDR at 20 mins. Supp, Same. Top, Same. Jungle, Same. ADC gets it with 2 items. It's so fcking annoying.

eh. I just buy all the cdr I want and don't worry about wasting a bit in stats if I get good passives.

it not that easy to get max xrd with just dmg items though

I wouldn't mind it so much if they used smaller numbers. Instead of 5-20 let's try 2.5-10.

yea as riven I build item 3071 item 3142 already have 45% cdr pretty nice

CDR is the crit of mages (kinda). I think that most builds should naturally learn towards 30-40%. Some classes definitely have more access than others.

For examples, enchanters have so much CDR that they actually need to be extremely careful not to go over.

Yeah it's pretty annoying that when you try certain item builds they aren't as efficient because you end up with 50-60 cdr
