New Item: Executioner's Scythe

Shadowphoenix··1 votes·1,330 views

Executioner's Scythe +35 Attack Damage UNIQUE Passive - Executioner: Physical Damage inflicts Grievous Wounds on enemy champions for 5 seconds. UNIQUE Passive - Unstoppable Slash: Basic Attacks ignore all shields (nullifying critical strike damage and on hit damage & effects from other items when attacking shields).

One thing that has become too difficult to effectively deal with in the game now is the amount of healing and shielding. This has become such a problem that they gave Aatrox a passive to deal with it effectively. Now some people might say that you shouldn't give an effect to an item that a champion has since it will make them useless in that regard, but this is not the case. There are already a lot of items that do this: Zhonya's Hourglass, Guardian Angel, Spectral Cutlass, Ghostwalkers, and even Tiamat. This item would be no different. It's a fair item, and a hell of a lot better than buying an Executioner's Calling and not building it into anything.

I should state I think league may well indeed benefit from an item like this. But even if the clause is only in effect when attacking shields its still rather rough for instance Janna her shield lasts 5 seconds, if this item allows you to hit health through her shield but without crit youre usually better off killing the target through shield with crit. That's just my 2 cents

Yeah that is true, but then you don't really need this item just for Janna's shield. This is more for the really big, hard to deal with shields. If getting an item to combat those makes dealing damage to these shields a little bit harder for a few seconds then it's a give and take that probably makes this item more balanced. Maybe?

why not just have it be like irelia passive? Extra damage to shields?

Shadowphoenix1 votes

Well you could, but then you still have to get through the shield to do any damage to the champion, and this item is supposed to deal with big shields. Making it do extra damage instead wouldn't work as well for the champs buying it for its intended situations.

(nullifying critical strike damage and on hit damage & effects from other items).

What champion wants to buy an effect like this? That clause turns the item from decent to pretty trash tbh.

If you are confused this is only referring to when you auto an enemy that has a shield. It doesn't nullify those things at any other time.

Maybe change unstoppable slash to having a percentage bypass shields

Shadowphoenix1 votes

I thought about it, but I decided to go with nullifying add-ons instead. Shields don't last very long, so only doing a certain percentage of your damage without it being a high percentage would be very weak.
