Yeah, if the enemy is dumb enough to give Vayne that many free kills early they are still gonna have a bad time.

Using half scaling/half flat MR runes, offensive masteries and building Locket+Mercs as defensive items has me with more MR than armour now. It's somewhat disturbing in a way.
It also definitely felt way worse than previously from the jungle, because I had good timings at kindlegem then complete Locket previously, but now I've got to do with parts until I complete Aegis, which is somewhat underwhelming now, and then I pay 600 more gold to get the shield.
From the jungle it's going to weaken your timings so much on dive-y champions (was playing Vi, but Nautilus loves the CDR too and being able to pop Locket after your W lets you increase your dps because the Locket shield will be depleted first, preserving what little damage they left on his shield).

Conspiracy theory: Riot limited boots as a harmless way of testing their item limiting framework. Once it is shown to be bug-free, they will expand it to limit wards. DUN DUN DUUN

That would be way more convincing if pots weren't already limited to 5

Because saying "fuck it I'm just gonna save up all my limited gold for a big item" doesn't make up for less than ideal game design.

Morello/crucible are pretty decent if you want actual items.Only for ranged supp though.Also shurelya ofc.

i think there's more passives/items that give more mpen or reduce mr than armor though.

Which is fine frankly. You should be able to, and can reduce the effectiveness of someone stacking Mr, you should not be able to nullify it completely. (LOOKING AT YOU CLEAVER).

Looking into master yi's kit a bit more; is there a point in building LW? his on hit true damage seems so good already that LW seems like a very luxury buy. Yi is almost required to build at least 2 big defensive items; just due to his melee nature. Leaving 3 core offensive items for him. Is BT (or hydra)/LW/Shiv(or PD) really the best choice for him?
Or perhaps he's got more of the 3 hybrid offensive/defensive item build going for him; with 1 massive offensive and defensive item? hexdrinker/atma's/fmallet;

Not sure if serious...

Sure you have true damage, but the rest is physical. Maybe LW is too much, but against multiple armor stackers, you might want it.
