@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague Every ad bruiser item is used on multiple champions unlike ap bruisers where akali and mages use rocketbelt, gragas takes cosmic drive whilst bloodletters is taken on singed occassionally, ad bruisers can take 5 bruiser items with some like darius taking tank items as well
@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague Adc's get extra items because of the quest which is exploited by mages bot lane, adcs deal high damage unlike ap bruisers at the downside of not having defence or health. Ap bruisers have base kit shielding healing or defence to compensate for the lack of itemisation for melee.
@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague The bruiser items hp are lower compared to ad counterparts, not a single ap item gives defence other than zhonyas and banshees both mage items. All ad bruiser items are nerfed for ranged counterparts unlike ap bruiser items where only riftmakers omnivmap is slightly lower
@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague Whilst, the ad bruisers have more than enough items giving shields, tenacity, ad, omnivamp, missing health healing with crits, delayed damage with defence included, more haste availability. The only bruiser items actively taken on ap champs are riftmaker liandrys and bloodletters
@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague An adc isnt meant to be a tank whilst sylas singed morde are ap bruisers with the smallest item pool of any bruisers needong to take tank items or mage items like sylas. Gwen has never taken rylais and rumble very rare. Rylais indeed needs a nerf for ranged ap champions
@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague Singed has not taken roa in years. Not one singed player including myself takes roa. You listed 2 mages who rely on mana for damage. Yeah tell me other than singed and morde who takes rylais. Whilst brand, zyra, morgana, malzahar, swain all take it and they arent bruisers
@WhatleyLeague Next patch notes will have no riven nerfs, deaths dance buff, riftmaker nerf following a liandrys nerf, kaenic rookern deletion and several mage buffs and adc buffs. Everyone hated phreak till they realise how much hes needed because the current teams clueless
@Molkys_@WhatleyLeague I would love for you to tell me what champion actively takes roa in 2026. And liandrys has been turbo nerfed over the last 2 years losing 30 ap u see more mages taking it than bruisers even mordekaiser doesnt build liandrys as often. Rylais is built on more mages than bruisers
@WhatleyLeague Better game state would be all melee champions being op, atleast it would be more interactive than 5 ranged champions every match dealing the most damage whilat being safe at range
@WhatleyLeague Need some new ap bruiser items or ap bruiser item buffs. game needs ap antishielding to even compete verse riven. Its at the point where vayne needs to be balanced for toplane not botlane and all mage items need nerfed range modifiers or lower mana on these items Game states shit
@axel__tv@nikgeneburn No flea should not give more points as it will encourage everyone to take it. Say it gave +10 so many will take it that there will be close to an even split which puts anyone with flea at a huge disadvantage in terms of abundance of resources and ofc at extortionate pricing
@FireriderK97181@RiotPhroxzon Its the same as them berfing the mid lane gluttonous greaves riven is op not because of the item, other users like zed are nerfed because of one champion. The protoplasm nerf is ridiculous the item becomes worse the later you take it so they've made it significanrly weaker early
@FireriderK97181@RiotPhroxzon This years balancing as a whole has shown they are absolutely clueless, nerfing proto because 2 champions abuse it over nerfing the champions or considering to make the item cost 3k with a slightly higher armor mr ratio. The fact they nerf the mid boots over riven is insane.
@RiotPhroxzon Ain't no fucking way there is a singed nerf with a protoplasm nerf, hopefully this results in a buff for some ap ratios so ap singed becomes viable which is the more skill expressive version.
