Why are lifesteal quints hardly used now?

[quote=Vynertje]By offensive picks I meant substituting lifesteal quints (which give no real combat stat) for offensive stats like attack speed.[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]They feel very underwhelming and unnecessary since the nerf to them and buff to feast + AS quints. AS is really great for making animations smooth to let you last hit and orbwalk better in lane, plus it's a great stat on most popular champs. I kept lifesteal pages around for a little while after the changes for laning against stuff like Caitlyn + Karma but I ended up deleting them because they really didn't help much at all and they made laning feel more clunky, it just wasn't worth using them in any circumstance.[/quote]

[quote=Cooper112]They should change them back to prenerf to make them more viable again.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]Disagreed. I think it's good that bot lane doesn't become a farm and sustain fest and actually has more room for outplays through trades.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]True but buffing lifesteal quints again would make botlane a lot more boring for sure.[/quote]

[quote=DillButt64]id rather play a fun game than a boring game where everything in balanced[/quote]

[quote=Vapora Dark][quote=Cooper112] [quote=Vapora Dark] [quote=Cooper112] With nefs to LS items you think it would be good. With 2 life steal quints and feast you get close to same life steal before nerfs to the quints. [/quote] The buff to Feast affects you whether or not you're running lifesteal quints or not though, running feast is not any reason to run lifesteal quints along with it. [/quote] No buddy just no lol. Feast it not that huge of heals if you get a bad trade in lane your done even if you have that mastery. It did not even give that huge of buff. They even nerfed dorans blade early on making that mastery worse it gave more with flat heal now its only 3% life steal. [/quote] "With 2 life steal quints and feast you get close to same life steal before nerfs to the quints." Running feast is no reason to run lifesteal quints along with it, is what I'm saying. You'll be getting the Feast sustain whether you run lifesteal quints or not, it doesn't make the lifesteal quints themselves more worth it. 2 AS > 2 LS, Feast has nothing to do with the discussion.[/quote]
