LW needs some kind of buff or re-work. The simple fact is that it isn't that useful. Unless somebody has 400+ armor, BC > LW. Also, your teammates benefit from BC which in my opinion is overlooked all too often.
The weak lose their freedom to the strong. Such is the way of the strong. And it is the providence of nature that only the strong survive. That's why I needed strength.

It's hardly competitive with BC imo. It's really not hard to build up your 3 stacks to completely dominate what ArP LW would give you.

You don't know the math. You're basing your opinions on assumptions only.
Come back when you know what you're talking about..

Last time i did paper math, TBC was better than LW until about 100 armor.

But that was a long time ago, and it was paper math.

Here are proper comparisons.

Damage

DPS

I mixed up the gold costs though. They're supposed to be the other way around. TBC is more expensive.
Apparently my eyes are just spooking around >.>
The prices are right.
"I saw [Twilight: Eclipse] in theaters with a girl I was dating at the time. I spent more time staring at my toes and wiggling them than I did watching this abomination. When Edward proposed to Blank Face, I finally looked up with a revelation.
I blurted out loud, in a dead silent theater full of teenage girls on opening night "Wait a minute, Edward has no blood flow. How does he get an erection?" I heard several men laughing, and had several girls turn and stare at me.

I did not get laid that night." - Berengier817

LW improves poking abilities like Volley/Piltover Peacemaker/Mystic Shot SUBSTANTIALLY. TBC does not.

LW costs much less than TBC meaning you can get LW and a Zeal for ABOUT the same price as TBC.

TBC requires sustained DPS on one target to be effective while in a teamfight you're more likely to be kiting around, hitting whoever you can.

Very, very wrong..
The gold difference is 575gold. Zeal is 1195; more than double.

These are the major differences:
  • LW deals more damage on physical abilities(especially poke).
  • TBC has better sustained DPS.


Whoops, I'm remembering it like it was before B.F. Sword's change, when the price was a bit more comparable. I think back then we could compare TBC and a red pot to Zeal+LW.
