wow I was almost flipping my table when I only saw the 5 with a greenbackground and assumed cho w was silencing for 5 seconds at max level, 2,5s sounds, fine, I think 45% max BB is still fine for nunu. Ezreal + BC nerfes are kinda meh.

any shaco nerf is welcome for me such a stupid champ although I feel like it sucks for the really good shacos since he is underplayed anyway.

Plate of the Warmage

+30 Armor
+25 Ability Power

UNIQUE Passive: Killing a unit grants 0.5 bonus Armor and Ability Power. This bonus stacks up to 30 times.

Cost: 125

holy shit? must be a combined cost... I'm guessing cloth armor + amp tome?

At Rank 1, it shields what 80 damage would and at Rank 5 it shields what 260 damage would have before. By late-game, you should be doing way more than 260 damage with your Q. So it'll depend on what the AP Ratio is going to be.

Alistar passive letting him do more damage to turrets again is amusing.

The nerfs are uncalled for since Riot wanted to take random chance out of the game (other than crits) and now they put a % miss on shaco E?

These PBE notes are pretty bad imo.

Sightstone now built from a ruby crystal, this is why the price for the stone itself was reduced.
The new item "Plate of the warmage" is built from 2 cloth armors and a Amplifying Tome
Zhonya's Hourglass now requires the "Plate of the Warmage" instead of chain vest

also, shaco shiv is a rewording, he always had the % miss chance for minions.

aw w nerf though. It's unfortunate people think that support nunu is good.

It's a rewording. The shield already works on damage done before applying reduction, they just make it clearer (and easier to know rather than having to calculate yourself). Tooltip clarification.

Regarding Black Cleaver, I'm still torn about the very concept of the item: you can't make it apply reduction from the first hit onward because then it can be a mostly utility item, that even an AP carry or support could build just to help his team, but the more stacks it has to apply, the less it works with champions/kits relying on burst damage in a few instances.
Rescaling for a higher number of stacks tips it more toward the prolonged trades in lane, and makes stuff like Sivir's Q less of a shredding wonder. On the other hand Talon's bread-and-butter harass combo (and finisher) are weaker, same with Panth's HSS or Kha'Zix, while not affecting Bullet Time or Riven's trades too much because 4 or 5 max stacks when you're inflicting 8+ instances of damage isn't a lot.

Edit:

Sightstone actually nerfed.
Zhonya's buildpath smoother but it's actually worse if you used to build your chainvest in one go. Buff to the "aggressive" approach that doesn't want to sacrifice early damage, nerf to the "safe" approach. As for my own case and playstyle I dislike it.
