The Kingslayer's Gauntlet

item 1011 + item 3108 + item 1052 + 1155 gold / 3500 total gold

alternatively

item 3067 + item 1058 + item 1028 + 1050 gold / 3500 total gold

400 HP

10% Cooldown Reduction

Unique Passive - Lifeline: If you take 400 − 1800 (based on level) damage within 5 seconds, you gain a shield for up to 3.75 seconds equal to 75% bonus health, which start decaying after 0.75 seconds (60 second cooldown). Melee Only

Unique Passive - Wisdom: Gain AP equal to 20% bonus health. ( 80 AP with only this item )

266 + 400x2.66 + 400x0.2x21.75 = 3070/3500 = 88% gold efficiency + 12%(435 gold) per 100 bonus HP from other items.

The passive Wisdom would have to be the same named passive as item 3089 ( which currently isn't named ). My idea behind this item is to solve the Deathcap phenomenon. Because basically what happens with AP bruisers, especially Sylas and Diana ( the ones that can't use item 3116 + item 3151 effectively ), is that you have to go for item 3089 , due to how much build efficiency you lose if you don't. This item would give a good last item alternative to item 3089 for AP bruiser builds. It's high cost and mediocre build components are to stop it from being a good first item. I considered making the life line shield different from item 3053 and more like item 3046's shield and not scale with bonus health, but this is supposed to be a bruiser item so I left it in.

It sounds like a fun design, but my god would an AP Steraks be broken. Especially the AP-HP conversion. Vlad would reach 90% winrate with this item.
