[quote=Hamstertamer]Irelia and Vlad pickers officially recognized by Riot as abusers. That part alone made my day. Irelia's passive literally reduced from 20-25 magic damage per hit early game to about 5. That total AD -> bonus AD change is a huge nerf. Crit marksmen still terrible though. They didn't even reduce IE's price by 100 gold, and instead gave them negligible buffs.[/quote]
