when you buy a work of art, you don't give the artist the right to come to your house and change it whenever they want you buy it for what you like about the original piece changing alternate skins just feels... cheap to me | ||

Pretty sure I got mine for free. | ||

High elo queues can get pretty long, a lot of those players do other stuff while waiting, and also focus on a single role/lane in terms of champion picks. But yes as I mentioned I don't think they should accommodate AFKers. For those guys the League window pops up when it's their turn to pick. =P | ||

Below are the DPS and DPS/gold values against 50, 100, and 150 armor. First, the easy stat items: Base, no additional items, 108/82/66 Infinity Edge, 247/0.0363 @ 50 armor, 187/0.0274 @ 100 armor, 150/0.0219 @ 150 armor Phantom Dancer, 190/0.0288 @ 50 armor, 144/0.0218 @ 100 armor, 116/0.0176 @ 150 armor Last Whisper, 160/0.0227 @ 50 armor, 132/0.0218 @ 100 armor, 112/0.0201 @ 150 armor Full Bloodthirster, 194/0.0287 @ 50 armor, 146/0.0213 @ 100 armor, 118/0.0173 @ 150 armor Black Cleaver (full stacks), 223/0.0401 @ 50 armor, 160/0.0272 @ 100 armor, 124/0.0202 @ 150 armor Nothing really surprising here. Infinity Edge has the best overall performance. PD and BT trade raw damage for their respective extra utility. Black Cleaver has strong performance at low armor that tapers off rapidly at medium/higher armor values, while LW does the opposite (note that BC's DPS is slightly over-valued due to the fact that it assumes full stacks straight from the beginning). Analyzing other items is a bit trickier. We'll begin with Triforce. To do this, we'll first calculate the raw DPS gained from the stats, then calculate the number of procs per second required to match other DPS items (in practice, Triforce is only capable of 0.5 procs per second in ideal circumstances, and on most heroes, much less than that). Triforce raw stats, 183 @ 50 armor, 139 @ 100 armor, 111 @ 150 armor Ashe has 80.5 AD at level 12. This translates into 53.67 damage @ 50 armor, 40.25 @ 100 armor, 32.2 @ 150 armor From a cursory analysis, it's pretty clear that Triforce isn't going to match up against IE at any point for pure damage, even on its best users. If you're buying Triforce, you're paying a LOT for the utility. However, for Corki and Ezreal players, it's worth noting that Triforce DOES beat full BT for DPS, even with less-than-optimal Triforce proc usage. It also only has marginally worse DPS/gold, which is more than made up for in the vast amount of other stats the item gives. We look at the proc items last, Wit's End and Bloodrazor. As with Triforce, we'll calculate the raw stats first, then determine how good the proc has to be. Wit's raw stats, 134 @ 50 armor, 101 @ 100 armor, 81 @ 150 armor Bloodrazor raw stats, 176 @ 50 armor, 133 @ 100 armor, 107@ 150 armor I'll skip Wit's for now because I'm lazy. For Bloodrazor, it's straightforward because its cost is basically the same as IE. We just calculate the required proc damage at each armor value. With the appropriate items, Ashe has 1.376 attack speed. @ 50 armor: proc needs to do 51.6 damage after mitigation @ 100 armor: proc needs to do 39.24 damage after mitigation @ 150 armor: proc needs to do 31.25 damage after mitigation Lets assume that our targets have balanced mitigation--similar amounts of armor and MR. We can then calculate breakeven HP values for Bloodrazor: @ 50 armor/MR: 1935 HP breakeven @ 100 armor/MR: 1962 HP breakeven @ 150 armor/MR: 1953 HP breakeven So for single-item DPS, Bloodrazor is approximately equivalent to IE against ~2k HP targets, assuming they have similar amounts of armor and MR. | ||

Bloodrazor has issues because of the lack of any followup being effective - any second item you add onto bloodrazor won't scale as well as the AD + crit + AS combination of stats, because MBR only scales with AS and enemy HP. I'm curious on followup math, and math when you mix in various ADcarry's steroids. For example Trist is going to absolutely shine with IE because of rapid fire, where Kog will shine more with an AS item. I'm going to borrow your math if I get unlazy to look at followup items. | ||

The point is that the straightforward intuition people have about DPS items in this game isn't really wrong. | ||

But that was the point of going bloodrazor + pure tank on Warwick. Slot efficiency, and the razor for early jungling. If you include a Frozen Mallet, that's the same AD as the two dblades Yango used. and Yango you are awesome btw edit: I think you also vindicated my Corki strategy of getting Black Cleaver instead of LW 99% of the time. | ||

I just don't understand why they have to bother changing everything over. I mean, I know art is subjective and all and many people will like it/not like it but why bother changing anything at all? Like, what's the reason for it? Was it not clear who Renekton and Pantheon were beforehand? | ||
