Why are Gunslingers getting a 50% buff to their trait?

Gunslingers are weak, but i dont think this is the right way to fix that :-/

Where are you learning about gunslinger changes?

probably because gunslingers statistically don't perform well, and since riot is riot, they throw random buffs at them instead of figureing out why gunslingers don't do well.

The reason why gunslingers aren't great overall is that they are heavily item reliant. If you get the needed items for them, especially guinsoos+either crit or on-hit, they can totally destroy. But if you just don't get those items, they fall of hard mid-late. And with the addition of sparring gloves, getting the right items became less reliable, so gunslingers do well less often.

Thing is, with that PBE buff, nothing will changes about that. They will hardly perform better without the right items, they just will be more dominant if they get the right items. It's a pure win harder buff that won't really help them do well more reliably.

Also, gunslingers are to RNG reliant. Just had a game with a double-RFC+IE 3star graves, and dropped out first casue two fights in a row he would neither crit nore get a multi hit till he dies...

You know there's 0 gunslingers that are Wild, right?

And what you're suggesting is an 8 unit comp (When core comps require lv6-7 since you can easily DIE before then) that requires Brawler's gloves - the most contested item in the game that's not Spatula because Assassin's want IE and everyone wants Thieve's Gloves. That comp is almost never going to happen and there's almost certainly a better comp you could've used in those scenarios (Like, idk, WILD ASSASSIN)

And you're also failing to recognize what Slingers brought to the table was a % chance of having Runaan's Hurricane. An item that's rarely built unless you're topping off a fed Draven. Sure, the AoE is useful, but unless the units are powerhouses like Jinx they're not going to have massive damage. In fact, the units are primarily used for debuffs since even if a debuff can only affect 1 target per auto, you have a better chance of it actually sticking to someone. Gunslingers are terrible at dpsing compared to Rangers and Blademasters and thrive on AoE instead.

The problem you've suggested is a fake one and if there is an issue with the Gunslinger buff, your imaginary 4 Wild 4 Gunslinger highroll theorycraft scenario isn't it.

It isnt because gunslinger cant perform well the problem is Shapeshifters are freaking everywhere and melt any squishy adc without problem which force people to counter with glacial and glacial force yordle and yordle force wild/shapeshifter.
