[quote=Keels]Bottom line, this Item doesn't have enough AP for most AP carries to get it. I see it as viable on [[swain]] or maybe even [[kassadin]], but swain especially since he has a focus on durability as well as Power. I might choose it for kassadin because he can't afford to be locked down by cc. These are the only two AP carries that I could see benefiting from this underused item. However, it is a very good choice on singed. CC red. and AP are things that singed loves.[/quote]

[quote=Wintermond]I would never get this Item, instead I would grab Mercury Treads and get a better Item for the slot.[/quote]

[quote=Keels]Exactly! The item just doesn't replace merc treads and doesn't have enough AP to replace any other AP item.[/quote]

[quote=ExamplePrime]It sucks and takes up a slot really :/[/quote]

[quote=SinDelta]This should be in theorycrafting no? Since this is technically coming up with different ideas on how it can be viable.[/quote]

[quote=Joobieo#41288]Looks like a waste to me, doesn't fit into the meta at all.[/quote]

[quote=Lazukin]^ Doesn't fit into the meta isn't the reason though, it's just a bad item.[/quote]

[quote=JEFFY40HANDS]The tenacity items were made so ppl weren't locked into mercs. Issue being none of the tenacity items are actually good enough to A. Compete with mercs B. Take a slot oaf a separate situational item in a build. Suggestions, buff the stats on all tenacity items. Or make tenacity stack up to a certain number and reduce the tenacity awarded on all the tenacity items. Including mercs. or both suggestions might be best. The less effective mercs become the more appealing the other tenacity items become. They need to add a few more tenacity items because the ones available now are too niche. Too situational IMO.[/quote]

[quote=KillaTheNinja]I think all of the tenacity items suck. They're like...made for early game only, when they need to be good through out the entire match. Defeats the purpose of tenacity.[/quote]

[quote=theBMB]that merc treads are boots, and that every build has a slot for boots, means that characters never really sacrifice anything to get merc treads. The problem with the other tenacity items is that they are not only NOT boots, but they take up an EXTRA item slot for mediocre stats. I mean even the tenacity they offer is less than that of merc treads. I know riot was trying give people options other than merc treads, but the marginal benefits that you could get from other boots are not worth the extra money and item slot that the other tenacity items take up (except for eleisia's miracle, since it builds from P stone).[/quote]
