They buffed
Precision too, so it might actually be really worth on ADCs since that mastery should definitely outdo the % pen one now.
Korean ADCs are currently running either 0/18/12, 12/18/0 or 18/0/12,
Feast
seems so nerfed and the other early tier stuff in ferocity tree seem pointless that I think 0/18/12 could be the general one in this patch

It already did out-do
Battering Blows
(and
Piercing Thoughts
) against anyone who didn't straight up build armor (or MR), which is why I don't understand the people that don't take
Insight
saying "not enough penetration", yet happily took and take
Devastating Strikes
and
Battering Blows
(or
Piercing Thoughts
).
18 in cunning is definitely the way to go on most if not all ADC's now, Warlord's Bloodlust
and
Fervor of Battle
's changes since the start of the season have made both of them only good outside of lane, and
Thunderlord's Decree
has seen nothing but buffs despite being fine right from the start.
I know Talon will love this patch too, the amount of flat armor pen he gets is ridiculous. :^)

Now I gotta redo my math on Fervor vs Thunderlord's. :(
Thanks to Nyoike for the sig!
First of all, thanks for trying to help out with the Patch Summary, utopus :) I had already written some parts of it (such as the intro/outro) myself, but for the most part I've merged our posts together into the summary below. If you guys prefer that version, let me know and I'll edit the OP before featuring the post on the front page (and I'll make sure to edit this post and remove my summary from it as well, of course).
Without wanting to call you out on anything (I realize it must've taken a while for you to write that post and I appreciate the effort), I'd like to quickly touch on what I changed and why. My biggest concern overall would be that certain parts of your summary aren't really summarizing anything. For example, the idea behind including a reworked/new champion's ability icons in the summary is that I can focus on describing their overall playstyle or only highlight key abilities in the description instead, without having to go into (too much) detail on every ability. The same goes for the links in the "WTF DID THEY DO TO MY CHAMPION?!" table, which I think you forgot to add to your post :P
As for changes to items, masteries and things like jungle camps on Summoner's Rift; there's simply no way to cover everything if a patch is big. Hell, that's not what a summary is for, and it's why every summary will always have a link to the full patch notes (unless I forget, in which case Out of Pancakes will make sure to let me know I'm an idiot), to ensure that those who want to read more can read more while those who just want the most important changes (hopefully) are left satisfied. It is for that same reason that I unfortunately decided to leave out quite a bit of info in the middle section of your summary and simply highlighted changes to some of the more popular items/masteries instead - please note that I'm open to feedback on that as it obviously helps me to improve future summaries, so if you guys ever feel something very important is missing I'd appreciate a PM about that :)
For future reference: should you or anyone else want to help with a summary again in the future, it might also be best to do so in a private forum (such as the Editor/Scout/Veteran subforums), so I can edit the "final product" before making it public.
Right, I think that should be enough rambling for now, thanks again!

As for a way too serious answer to that comment: I basically never do for reworked/new champions anymore, actually, since I discuss them first in the description and the patch notes for those champions only link to other pages anyway. Might not be bad to just remove the ! category.
