Note on Ardent Censer: Zeke's Herald is 250g more and gives an aura that is "better"

Not a fan of the numbers behind the Censer. We'll see.

This is an interesting point. Especially with the nerfs to life steal, I wonder if zeke's might become a more viable option now.

I thought he meant things that triggered on the third strike. I definitely forgot Kennen and Velkoz.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

This is a big step for Skarner, I want to play him before I make any quick decisions, but his kit seems promising.

Yea, if Zekes didn't have that terrible freaking 1700 gold purchase hurdle i would get it a lot more on supports.

edit: Its probably going to get a bit of an advantage now because AD's will tend to get more early AS in favor of AD since the first item in most build paths is going to be BotRK, Shiv, or Infinity Edge and the other buffs to AS items

Edit: Zeal is really getting the shaft here, its +450 gold for 5% AS, 2% Crit, and 5% move speed. Which is only 250 gold worth of crit and attack speed.

Its actually more efficient in terms of damage to not finish Zeal, and buy another dagger/cloak of agility/avarice and then wait until you can upgrade to shiv or PD

Are you talking about the combine cost for Shiv or PD? Because Shiv has a pretty neat passive in that combine cost.
I think Skarner's worse off after this "rework". They gutted so much of his damage (which will also impact his clear speed) just to give him a stun that won't be that useful early on unless you somehow manage to tag people with E... which means you put a point in E and thus deal even less damage and farm even slower.
Plus I think he also loses a lot of character by dropping his current passive in favour of a pretty bland one. I'd expect something like what he has on a mage-like champion, hitting a single auto after several spells, while the previous one really outlined his fighting patterns of mixing Q-while-moving and autos.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Actually putting a point in e doesn't reduce your damage.They reduced his ult damage by a lot though for some random ass reason.

Zeal price got reduced by 75. You'd still build the same route as usual.

EDIT: I didn't maths.

my bad.

You gain 40 damage from E, and lose 12 on the first Q, 24 on the subsequent ones (also some AS/MS from stacks), which also happens to be AoE on a way shorter cd. I'd say you actually lose a bunch in terms of clearing, which is important for Skarner pre-6, arguably more so than ganks.

The thing with going E early on Skarner is that it hurts your manapool, which actually reduces your damage if you go oom. At least that was the reasoning Scip gave in the Skarner thread for not taking E early and I assume that did not change with the new Skarner.

Lol my bad misunderstood your post.Not getting e at lvl 4 seems pretty fucking stupid honestly.

I'm thinking that getting E at lvl2 will be preferable with new Skarner but only test will tell

Yes, it is.

Oh that explains things, i read it as price increased by 75 gold. So i was seeing 5% attack speed and 2% crit for 450 gold.

5% AS and 2% crit for 300 gold is a lot better (you're only paying 50 gold for the move speed, which is what you're paying now)

So for those who missed it, Phreak began doing some math for the ADC items in 4.10, trying to calculate in the raw/flat numbers (AD, Armor Pen, etc.) along with some of the more "floaty" numbers (BotRK passive on-hit damage, # of Shiv procs, etc., Youmuu's additional armor pen., etc.) for people to look at and see. He has said that his numbers might be off a bit (mainly on the floaty bits), but the baseline champ he used was Ashe. He has said he will eventually do the math for the other champions and add in that champ's various unique attributes (Varus passive, Ez passive, etc.) , but has NOT done it on things like Reaver, Sword of the Occult, Zephyr, etc., instead only focusing on the core items that 95% of all ADCs get (the combination of BT, IE, LW, BotRK, Youmuu, PD, Shiv, Zerker Greaves, and D. Blade).

I'll put the images in spoiler box, and some of the more math-y people can watch the archive of his stream (or do the math themselves) to compare and contrast with his findings.

why such a big patch all of a sudden?

big champ changes and lots of item changes


So they can shake the metagame up a ton, have it settle for worlds, then fuck it up again with some dumb (ie., Triforce buff) patch right before Worlds.
