hey remember when you weren't locked out of getting shurelya by buying other items, and it was a core item on some jungles..... good times.

This amazing and deep strategic insight is brought to you by one of the "panelists" of lolesports.com power ranking column. Not leaving anything open to interpretation, coin is simply trash. Frost Queens Claim is the very best item in the game and should be bought on every single support. That includes Tresh, Braum, Alistar, Leona, Taric and Volibear. Also, in case of kill lanes on Xin Zhao, Jarvan and Pantheon. And support Rengar. There is not even a need to discuss it for five pages and do some math and discuss different use cases. Get with the program, guys!

That statement is about as correct (and valuable) as any power ranking ever posted on lolesports.com. Thank you for your insight. For some humor, here is the worlds power rank. Not sure if Neo had any hand in it though, they didn't put the names in this time and Neo didn't participate in the one before that.

Sorry, but I can't take anyone serious who is willing to vouch with his name for THAT kind of content.

Also, fuck you to whoever reported my "Whooosh" post. I was keeping on with the proud tradition of bashing retardation wherever it pops up and this is my thanks...

Not sure why you felt the need to call me out but I'll humor you.

1. I post on TeamLiquid with the understanding that my reputation proceeds me. I've been TL for over a decade, I've played League longer than anyone who posts on this site, I've done my fair share of analyzing LoL matches over the past four seasons. So when I make a shorthanded opinion, I trust that the general public has an idea where I'm coming from.

2. I admit that my quoted post was broad and sweeping. Of course there are situations where Coin/Talisman can be more beneficial than Spellthief's/FQC (I even gave an example of Annie/Thresh) but in the majority of the time, the latter has superior stats and a better active. That is my opinion after reading a page and a half of GD posts about Janna and support items. I wanted to give my input. Take it as you will.

3. What makes you a complete and utter shitter is that you decide to bring in Riot's Power Rankings into this discussion when you aren't even well informed enough to realize how Riot's Power Rankings work. I can assure you that 9 times out of 10, I disagree with the final rankings but my vote is a fraction of the entire panel. The names are even listed at the bottom. So what you have an issue with is a collective opinion that I not only disagree with most of the time but I only have a small contributing factor in.
In what way does my input in Riot's Power Ranking debase my statement about support items? Not every post of mine is going to be detailed or fully justified nor should I have to defend my every post. If anything, you've said nothing about why Coin is better than Spellthief in most situations.

Edit: After rereading your post a few times I also want to state that my posts are naturally geared towards competitive play. So you're winning with support Xin, J4, Rengar, it doesn't matter what the fuck you're building.
It would be ideal if we were discussing the game along the same parameters.



OK I am pretty sure we were only discussing with the context of solo queue. It is clear that competitively every Janna goes Spellthief and I actually think Spellthief is overwhelmingly better in competitive due to lane swaps and heavy roaming.


This is absolutely true, even moreso because competitive teams tend to not pick compositions where Coin would be better.

That's a lie, when Sivir + Olaf was a thing, talisman active was godly good.

Not only that, let's look at the balance changes to the 3rd tier items since those days(last competitive use of that comp in a league I can find is in OGN Champion's Winter.)

Mana regeneration reduced to 10 from 15.

Talisman was godly because not only did it have by far the best active but it had the best stats of all the support items. Since then all the actives got better and the stats are more in line between them all.

Spellthief is better because it gives more gold.

What's dumb about this argument is that Sufficiency and Goumindong are arguing that the laning stats of Coin and Spellthief are equal. Which they're not, but even if they were, Spellthief would still be better because it gives way more gold.

The argument that Janna can't make good use of it is bullshit. In order for it to give more gold than Coin all you have to do is trade with the enemy duo once every other minion wave. That's not hard to do.

Because Riot dislikes it when a support item is good enough for a non-support champion to consider it.

It was like 1 or 2 glorious patches. They did the rework (he still kinda sucked) buffed Olaf (Glory) then killed Shurelias.

double edged sword imo. one of the main things that bug me about dota has always been the overly large number of items, and the annoyance of having to go to a 2ndry area to get access to a subset of items.

It really depends. If an item rework ends in the elimination of the Support/Jungle items, that alone is a win. If it introduces a carry gold generation item, another win. If it introduces more actives onto more diverse items, again, a win.

However, if they just make a lot more banner of commands, while nerfing the good items like BotRK, Zhonyas, etc, then it is a loss.

Just looking at AP/AD items, I would do something like: DCap+IE stay as the main damage multiplier items, Void/LW are somehow changed to tankbuster niche items, and make all the other items bring something unique utility wise, but not be so obviously needed like Athenes.

Imagine if ohmwrecker had 0 AP. It would be 1k cheaper, and worth getting at 1k gold cost.

I remember in the preseason they were thinking about making LW/Void only effecting bonus Armor/MR. Just set it to that and maybe up the % a bit would be nice.

Spellthief is better because it gives more gold.

What's dumb about this argument is that Sufficiency and Goumindong are arguing that the laning stats of Coin and Spellthief are equal. Which they're not, but even if they were, Spellthief would still be better because it gives way more gold.

The argument that Janna can't make good use of it is bullshit. In order for it to give more gold than Coin all you have to do is trade with the enemy duo once every other minion wave. That's not hard to do.


What is the point of buying a revolver in lane when you can just buy a blasting wand?
