So with the ADC itemization changes Youmuu's Ghostblade has the same amount of AD as the retooled B. F. Sword items. How do you Mobavets and high elo players feel about it on caster adc's like Lucian or assassin adc's like Twitch? Is it first item worthy? Maybe after Essence Reaver? Tells us what you think.

When you would build it will need a lot of theory crafting to find out. There are a lot of good items being released during the preseason. However, I imagine that it would be good on a build that focuses on armor penetration, since it's only one of two items that will have any flat armor penetration ( Maw of Malmortius is the other one). My gut feeling is that it wouldn't be the best choice for most marksmen, but that it would probably be good for caster AD assassins like Talon or Zed. However, if you have a specific champion and build in mind, I'd be happy to run some numbers.

Edit: Dang, I just realized how good the new Maw of Malmortius is. 55 AD, +10 armor penetration, +50 MR, Lifeline magic shield when you receive magic damage that puts you below 30% health, +25% attack speed +10% life steal +10% spell steal when Lifeline triggers and lasts until you're out of combat.

I'm definetly going to try it for my assassin Tristana build. Basically don't build a single attsp items and rely on your Q+youmuu's active to kill someone. It's quite hard to pull of in the current meta due to youmuu's giving ****py ad and other items just being overall better for an adc.

Twitch is my favorite ADC and it is and will still be a must buy, I can explain for those that don't know why when I get home
Thanks to FatelBlade, JEFFY40HANDS, Nyoike, TheNamelessBard, GrandmasterD, aviseras and koksei for the awesome signatures

I don't see the point of buying it on Lucian anymore. His ult doesn't scale with Attack Speed, so Youmuu's Ghostblade really doesn't synergise with him at all.

Anyway, I'm still stuck in early Season 5 and still enjoy buying Ghostblade on my Vayne, but I think she definitely wants that new Phantom Dancer now.

Thank you to MissMaw for the signatures!

My idea was to run Essence Reaver with Yomuu's as second item taking the place of like a Zeal item. This, plus your eventual Infinity Edge gives you 40% CDR and your dps item slot is actually a fat stat ball that gives you armor pen and a lot of AD. The active would be helpful for kiting and dueling still but not used to amp up your ult. Just my thinking, who knows if it'll be good or not?
