Remember that it's not 10 attack damage, it's 10 extra physical damage on hit, so it's not entirely a 200g longsword. It's definitely a buff but I personally don't think it will affect much, there are very few champions who build Runaans. It also slightly helps champions who build BotRK, but even then the cutlass is usually the rushed portion and you usually don't sit on the attack speed portion very long. I guess it gives you a little bonus if you recall at around 1100+ gold and already have boots 1.


^This is better than my this. :-)

I like the change specifically for BotRK users because sitting on cutlass and two daggers was annoying as it sucked up three item slots until you could farm up 900 more gold to finish BotRK.

Also Recurve Bow felt like such a non-item. 30% Atk spd isn't anything to sneeze at, but this change I think will make the item feel a little more useful as far as temporarily giving up an item slot for it.

So Runaan's + BOTRK now. Personally, I'm a little afraid to go against it!

They should make boots build into recursive bow, but that's just my opinion.

2 Boots + 500 gold to Toshabi = 1 Recurve Bow


I personally don't like playing her as she stands with the Attack Speed nerf, I think it took a giant chunk of her offense away. And, put more reliability on the hopes that you and your support have synergy with her ult. Her kit is still really strong and Kalista still has a lot of power, but she lost a lot of speed and mobility.



if that nerf made kalista unusable for you, you're doing it wrong.

Better than nothing. Like the other already said, no one would like to sit around with the speed portion, and turn it into Stinger just make the item path feels weird. It's definitely not a first choice, probably except for Wit's End. So so niche...

I just now thought about this, but has anyone thought about the affects it will have on Vayne?

Don't think it's going to mean much. Champions who use Recurve are probably going to be ADCs and AS isn't that much of a valued stat in lane. People who buy BORK are still going to go cutlass. Just a nice minibuff for Kalistas who buy Runaans and not having to keep useless daggers in your inventory if you don't have enough for bork
