Classick:
Quoted:
I've had my eye on these items recently actually, as you suggest the plan is to bump these items all up to 35 tenacity. The goal with these items is not to see them in every game, but for them to be used as an effective way to counter a team that heavily stacks CC. So as Anivia I would probably not have a Moonflair Spellblade in my core item build, but if I happen to be in a game versus a Sion/Taric/Brand and I know they are all going to be targeting me in team fights, this will be a great pickup.

They could buff the other stats on the other tenacity items a bit imo.

Moonflair Spellblade only costs 1200 gold. They should adjust the recipe and stats to make it worth maybe 1500~2000 gold.

Cloak and Dagger might be really good early/mid game now. Even if the stats don't get buffed (wish they would though) it would be pretty good since ad carries could go BG's and just get a BV for MR.

They all are really good items, it's just that Merc Treads is just way better considering it gives more tenacity, and it's not limited to a single type of character.

So yeah, bumping the tenacity up to match merc treads is a great idea.

Give Quicksilver Sash 25 Tenacity. :)

They need to make the tenacity items better for lategame, not give them small buffs --.--
I really hope they're making lategame tenacity items soon.

ya the tenacity items currently have two major problems:
1) They don't give as much tenacity as mercury treads. They are targeting this problem now, but this will make the "tenacity" stat completely meaningless since any item that offers tenacity offers the same amount of tenacity,
2) They don't offer stats that scale well into the late game. To be honest the value of the stats the items currently offer is about equivalent to the doran's items, which barely holds up through mid game, let alone late game.

Also, if they gave quicksilver sash tenacity, no one would buy merc treads or banshee's anymore, sash would suddenly fill both of those roles.

@Searz:

There will NEVER be a late-game Tenacity item. ( Unless you count Mercury's Treads )

The problem with that is, if a Tenacity item is viable late game, all other items become inferior and ALL Tenacity items become core for their respective compatible champions.

I like how they're opting to make Tenacity restricted to lower value items, it means it's more of a strategic choice and not a mandatory one.

You CANNOT underestimate the value of Tenacity. Especially when they all become 35. Tenacity is far more valuable then any other stat in side-by-side comparisons.
If it's too weak, they can buff it lightly until it's right, just like what they're doing now.
