Defensive Hybrid Item

Elite4Runner·4/7/2016, 3:17:42 AM·4 votes·864 views

When I say hybrid Item, i am referring to items that provide both AD and AP. I really wish there were more of these items. Until this season there were 3, but thanks to the changes to item 3078 there are now only 2 item 3124 & item 3146 .

item 3078 ** Trinity Force** WAS an offensive go-to item for hybrid carries. I really think something needs to fill this position once again. Riot, Plz!

item 3124 Guinsoo's Rageblade is a very aggressive hybrid item designed for champions who are very focused around auto attacks.

item 3146Hextech Gunblade is generally not as aggressive, but tends to work best on champions who utilize abilities and need sustain.

There are no defensive items for hybrids, and I think that is pretty strange. I even have an idea for it's recipe.

item 3191 Seeker's Armguard & item 3052 Jaurim's Fist

These two items are strangely similar, and most likely that was intentional.

This item would have AT LEAST

  • 300 Health
  • 15 AD
  • 35 AP
  • 45 Armor

I say at least because when either of these are the stats that each of the two items yield at full stacks, and with the other items that they build into, they often have at least a little more of each stat. Give me your opinions.

I also believe that it should have some kind of unique passive, and/or active effect. To tell the truth, I don't really have any ideas for this yet, but I wanted to throw this idea out there and see what you guys come up with. I think that whatever the effect is, it should continue to be more defensive than offensive.

I also haven't come up with any kind of name for this item.

So what do you think would work?

They are sibling items, they both stack similarly, would be cool to see an item built outta both of them

Hmm. Given that both stack upon killing a unit, perhaps this could continue? Similar to how Rod of Ages builds up over the course of 10 minutes, this item could be build up over the course of X units kills? That way the bonuses you would get aren't immediate, but can still scale into late game well.

Sure, buff Jax Akali KogMaw XinZhao etc etc.

Then, please, just adjust the banning process to simply ban these champions every time without having any players actually do anything. Hell, skip the banning phase, lets just move onto champ select and exclude these champs because they're just perma-banned anyways... Wait, maybe... just maybe you're onto something!!!

DO IT!

Mighty Arms:

  • Recipe: Jaurim Fist, Seeker's Armguard and 1200 Gold (3600 Total Cost)
  • Stats: 400 Health, 25 AD, 45 AP, 45 Armor
  • Unique Ability: Power Growth - For every 20 Units Killed, this item gains 1 Mighty Stack. (Champion kills count as 2 units.) Each Mighty Stack adds 5 points of True Damage to your basic attacks on enemy champions and towers. The maximum Mighty stacks this item can gain is 10 (50 True Damage per basic attack.)

Manage 200 farm after buying an item equivalent to an Infinity Edge in price, and let the good times roll. (Welcome back Corki!)
