that just sounds awesome. imagine the strategy one could use if poppy could force people through walls. It would have to be reliable though.

Eh, usually it's her charging at a champ against a wall, and the champ taking damage but her popping onto the other side of a huge wall basically going "wtf?? how did I get here?" lol

I don't even know if they fixed that or not. I rarely vs a poppy bot lane that is in that situation anymore.

As for Deathcap....old Zhonyas....those items will just always be core items on casters. It's just in the basic design of the items - high AP with a passive that gives you greater AP. Even if you don't rush it you'll still get it eventually, because the passive is so useful and makes all your AP items stronger. But removing such an item is just nerfing all casters, as while casters are limited by cooldowns, autoattacking carries are not and so will simply be stronger. You need to be able to have a lot more AP than the opponent can have AD to make up for that.

See, that's the thing--there were plenty of casters for which the old Zhonya's wasn't a core item. Annie valued penetration stats over pure AP, Anivia needed the mana from AA staff to maintain sustainability without Golem buff, etc. Particularly on a few champs where the active wasn't a deal-breaker, Zhonya's was more of a late game luxury than an actual core item.

Of course, with the active gimmick replaced with raw cost-effectiveness, Deathcap is much harder to ignore.

Very popular anivia build was cata -> tear -> zhonya and only then upgrading cata and tear. With annie i'm pretty sure i saw Salce rushing zhonya first or right after roa a few times.

I will if its seriously lategame. Nashors +CDRboots = max CDR. Useful if you've already got ROA, Deathcap, and Mejeis, and you're not the best candidate for blue buff. DFG is arguably better, but getting into DFG range is risky by that point in the game.

Runes + Masteries + CDR Boots + Blue Elix = max CDR. Or cut a bit off from Runes + Masteries and get any other item that gives a bit of CDR.

DFG is cheaper than Nashor's, you don't need 25 CDR because you want to spam blue elix anyways, it gives more AP, and if you ever get in range of someone you can use the active. DFG >>> Nashor's on Lux.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

the 150 ap you lose because you go nashor's isn't something you can justify by saying "i have 15% more cdr wuupwuup" (you have both CDR masteries as lux after all)

might aswell grab a blue pot and not look like a turd ^^

I stand corrected lol, don't have CDR runes yet, so that may be where I'm finding it justified. Just not a fan of DFG on her I guess.

I don't see how you're losing 150AP by going Nashor's, by no means is it being rushed, usually grabbing it after all other AP items, and if the game goes 60mins+ replacing it with another archangels or deathcap. That build in the pic is pretty damn bad though, not a situation where even this baddie would consider Nashors.

Lux should always have a book in my opinion, i grab almost none of the items in the suggested items list from Riot, they are unnecessary

Yeah, but definitely not as a first item. Lux so SQUISHY in lane.

True, though her range allows you to get away with a really glass cannon-ey build. D-ring is about all the survivability you need, if that. Just gotta be really careful.
