Unless these turn out to be ARAM only items again like Orb of Winter.
Edit: New Spirit Visage seems pretty bonkers.

Edit: although the new Spirit Visage is pretty much FoN

Vision control gonna be back to its season 2 state. I'd take that over the overabundance of wards we have now. Since GP10 in the Jungle really isn't a thing anymore they'll still have to do more than just build GP10/Moba boots/Oracles. If they did that, anytime brand would get ganked at 6 would be true terror lol

Those aren't thresh nerfs. Those are let's change his numbers and hope people think he's balanced afterwards changes. Nothing short of giving thresh's q the same mana cost of blitz q, and that mana cost on his e is going to make me stop banning him. Or give him 0 armor at lvl 1, that might work.
Blitz is rather balanced, I just don't want people losing when they play russian roulette. Most blitz I've seen have lost the game because his hook isn't nearly as game changing as it used to be. Blitz is balanced around being melee. The fuck they are doing with thresh, I have no idea.

Have to wait until like .. alot of souls to do anything, they'd have to give him armor per level if he started at 0 imo.

Holy shit that banshee's passive. Real anti-poke item now.
And that SV buff.
Fuck yeah MR items.

Also, GA finally getting turned into Nega-Mail recipe.

Was confused by Spellbreaker till I realized it probably is just another build path option for Hexdrinker.

Is it sad I get a lot more excited for item changes than champions?

I'm pretty sure those MR items are test items for ARAM and maybe Dominon

Not really. New champions are cool, but item changes generally have a much bigger impact on the meta/generate more interesting discussion.

I thought bulwark was the MR item cure-all?
|
I don't think this is actually the Lucian patch, he was just revealed, and champions always take at least 2 weeks, up to 5 or 6 weeks before actually being released.
Unless there's something I missed :p

New MR item seems to make it easier for tanky bruisers to handle Kennen and Elise in lane. As a Kennen player, this saddens me, but it's probably an objectively positive change.
