exactly, your problem was team coordination.

Tell me about it we had taken out their mid inhibitor and pushed them back to inhibitor tower on top and bottom and I had Baron warded and was saying that we should get it and they let he other team get baron three times. I was super angry and we just lost after their third baron, I couldnt keep them back anymore.

Life steal isn't a necessary stat on most champions; it's a form of indirect defense, that only works as long as you're attacking. Once you cannot attack anymore, lifesteal won't protect you.

You said you had a malz on your team? The second malz ults yi, you should focus yi and, if he doesn't die, he won't be strong enough to lifesteal back all the damage you dealt. He'll run away as you laugh and deal damage to his wimpy glass-cannon armor levels.

Lifesteal gives carries much needed survivability and sustainability. Without it they would be significantly weaker :/

I'm not saying we need to nerf life-steal or anything, just stacked it is super annoying.

But anyway the Malz wouldn't ulti Yi, he kept complaining that the wouldn't use his ulti unless he got the kill.

In other words, "ZOMG ITS SUPER OP D:! PLZ NERF!".

Same with tanky dps.

IT's "WHAT?! Survivability AND damage?!?! That's super OP madness!"

LOL wut Temzilla.

Big difference bro. Offtanks can survive while they aren't attacking. Carries that have lifesteal can't. The problem isn't the lifesteal, it's Yi.

Maybe not nerf the items directly, but scale down stacking them would do the trick.


By itself blodthirster is pretty strong and offers a major increase to sustainability.

2 bloodthirsters is just ******ed.

To be honest, if they have two bloodthirsters, they should be made out of paper, and will die in one stun anyway - so you don't need to worry about the lifesteal, they can't attack when stunned!

Melee-DPS champions are fiends at 1v1.

You don't take them on alone in standard fights.
