Yeah I guess and it's cool since essence reaver simply makes Vi's mana problems in lane dissapear, although you do have to be careful untillyou have the item ofcourse, but when you have it, spam dat q&e mang.

I haven't been able to try the new bt in a human game. They made it sound like it'd be shitty when you just got it but its shield scaling is pretty linear.


To be honest I've never found the BT rework that bad, because now you don't have to build it up for 30 stacks (that's 5 waves man, or less if you kill some jungle camps with it, but it does take a long time, and chances are, if you're in a skirmish or a teamfight you will lose all the stacks). The now 10 more ad from the start makes it actually a stronger item when you buy it, even if it does cost like 300 more gold.

A problem with BT is the shield decaying. Sure it will be there in lane but lategame I expect the shield will often not be up when a fight starts and your either building it up during the fight, which means you don't get hit and as such probably win the fight anyway, or you take damage right away and it will not build until the fight is already over.


But the BT shield actually stays for quite a while, so it's actually not that bad as you make it sound. And IF the adc positions well he can get a hit off before he gets damaged and gets the shield around when the fight breaks out. I would still think about going BT first on Caitlyn for example even though IE might be a stronger opener now that it has gained 10 ad and lifesteal is back to dorans

Dont get why people are saying the shield has no use, literally every game ive played tonight(diamond/plat mixtures) the adcs have got bt and the shield is always up pre fight lol. Not having to stack it but getting a 430 hp shield is fucking great.

Thats lvl 18.Basically you are paying 3100 gold for 80 ad and ls and a ruby crystal in mid game instead of just getting ie or bork.That is just a waste.Seen a few people go bt and they do no damage every time.

The gun is the only cool thing about the skin. The animations don't look that great, the rest of skin looks like a recolor.

Yea, but as a 4th big item in complement with Scimitar it seems great.

So you get IE, PD, LW, BT, Scimitar in that order. Which is huge for lategame AD itemization because they no longer need an explicitly defensive item.

Its pretty bad early though

ER looks like a great item for Lucian to spam in lane at least on paper. Has synergy with his passive/spell rotations.

Flat hp is the most underwhelming defensive stat by far.Only reason I would get it if bork doesnt really work in that situation.

The mask looks excellent considering they have to have some sort of large object on her head. It would be cool to see a no hat Cait skin but that's just not going to happen it looks like, so this mask is great.

Also, very disappointed in Ronaldinho Lucian, looks like a custom skin someone made for you to download. Very low skin quality.

Played with Essence Reaver a bit. I have to agree with other people who've tested it on AD carries, it comes too late to be a lane sustaining item (for mana), and the regen just isn't powerful enough that it feels much better for extended sieges. I did think it felt good for those times when you stay out on the field for way too long because stupid stuff is happening all over the place, but I could've just spend the money on homeguard boots and gotten better results, I think. Tested with Caitlyn, Ashe, and Kog so far.

BT will deal less damage and heal him less. Considering that as long as he doesn't start the fight topped-off he's more probably going to hover at some health point instead of being full health the whole time despite people hitting him, I don't think it'll make much.

So, apparently that Ardent Censer item is bugged and gives global movespeed to your entire team.

Oddone says so.

Just noticed there's a challenger guy in NA running smite/TP jungle AD TF.

Yes, it's been put on the fora (and I guess reddit) already. I wonder which item they based it off of to get a global %MS buff on an item supposed to buff allies' AS. x)

Edgar Davids, I believe, as he was the only player of note that I can think of that wore goggles and had dreads.
