In LoL it's the opposite -- champions often have a mix of utility and damage, while your item build pretty much seals your role e.g. AD kennen/teemo can be carries in LoL if they build for it, even though they have no AD steroids. This would be a lot harder in dota because of the way heroes scale with stats AD Kennens W is a steroid, albeit a weakish one. Also both ad kennen and teemo have redic base AS, meaning all AS items on them give more. | ||

take manta style. in LoL terms it gives you health, health regen, mana regen, mana, AS, AD, MS, armor, illusions + a partial cleanse or projectile dodger. i guess there's trinity force but manta style has way more utility. now with that said, when most of your items like that, it's nearly impossible to build glass cannon because a lot of your good items are all like that. with lol it's like... ok, IE/PD, there's next to no survivability on those items. even on other items like MKB there's some utility with the minibash. there's also the existence of farming items (bfury, hotd, radiance) that you can get. so even if you do decide to start daedalus/buriza as first item, there's the possibility you will get it later than a carry with a farming item. sure would be funny if we just renamed AD carry to glass cannon. "hi i play glass cannon for team solo logic." i don't think that we'll ever see glass cannon melee, but even then, we've all seen irelias, jaxes, rivens that literally carry the game. i don't know what i'm trying to say. maybe to say that lol's terminology sucks, haha. | ||

As an example, when A-M maxed his E, it's equivalent for him to having +100MR, in a game where you can't itemize MPen. And his Q is basically a +40AD permanent steroid coupled with a mana burn. Which becomes +120 with a Manta thanks to the illusions. Without any items, he already has big tankiness + damage + mobility. | ||

In solo queue I always see people appreciate fed bruisers and assassins as far more important then the ad to focus sometimes and I never see anyone building people full squishy because "they're melee carry". Sometimes people do it but its never with that kind of justification. People usually dont go full damage though because I usually backfires nowdays and people pick up on that fast. | ||

And it was originally designed for ad carries in mind but was nerfed due to it being too good on bruisers. If they changed it to a flat 30 AD instead of % health it would be a great item but even still its good on anyone who uses crit. cost efficient =! slot efficient. Also, you need to find bruisers than could use crit effectively. | ||

I'm guilty of often skimming through the general discussion without looking at the names. Maybe you love them so much you gave me the impression of many. | ||
