The way these items were changed has me wondering... Do the people that make these decisions even play this game lol!!?!?

This was such a huge, even if indirect, buff for assassin comps....

I can't be the only person seeing a double Solari, + Zeke's Shen standing in the middle of all the assassins....

They were very good before the patch, now these 2 items makes the game so frustrating to try to play anything but assassin comp for me.

Sure other comps can beat assassins when they get rolling but good luck actually getting to that point now.

All they would need to do is change the shield so that it scales on the unit's max health. Boom, Iron Solari becomes a front line item.

There isn't anything wrong with Zeke's buffing assassins.

I like your idea about Solari though for sure

It's not the problem that Zeke's buffs assassins, sorry I wasn't more clear.

Assassins generally don't have the tank out front, dps in the back formation.

So the way Solari and Zeke's now give the buff going only to the left and to the right buffs assassins more than any other comp in the game due to what the optimal assassin formation looks like vs the other comps.

Seeing that assassins were already one of the better teams, I think it was excessive to make the 2 items in the game that give a bonus to your team benefit their strongest formation the most.
