How come no one use Ohmwrecker?

Asked by Cubenox on January 13, 2015

I just played two games, one with Gragas and one with Cho'gath. I included Ohmwrecker in my build in both of these games, In the Gragas game I ended up with 22/7/9 and I also got a penta. I thought to myself "Hey maybe this Ohm-item isn't that bad after all" So I gave it another shot, (This time in ranked) and I ended up with 15/0/12. Were I just lucky? Did I meet bad players? Was it something else or is this item actually good? (I'm currently in Gold 3 promo)

The people who could build either:
a) Have better items to buy
b) Can't really afford it

The people that belong to the a) group are mostly top laners. Why build when you can get a better item like or etc.

The people that belong to the b) group are supports. Supports already have to buy , support item, and other support items. There is no place/money for it really.

I tend to get it on as it gives everything she wants: Cooldown Reduction, Health, Armour. The passive is really good at escaping pursuers and chasing after low health enemies to lock down with Q and E. The active is good as it allows your team to dive on enemies under their towers or to take out a tower with your team when you have no minions.

I've played 120 games this season using the majority of the time and only had 1 team scoff at my use of it. The rest of the time I had people thank me for saving them under the enemy tower.

Unless you are going for a dive comp or siege comp ohmwrecker isn't the best idea as it isnt super cost efficient and other items can outclass it. I would recommend getting the Zz'Rot portal if you are looking to go for a siege comp.

Depends on how much value you place in the utility. Like Janitsu mentioned before, is vastly outclassed by items like , which provides 20 more armor and 200 more health for a mere 250 gold and 10 cooldown reduction difference. Unless the active can be considered worth more than 's active (which it honestly isn't), most people won't buy it.

If we look at , we can see that 850 gold is worth approx 200hp and 10 cooldown reduction. This is easily outclassed by the 250 gold, 20 armor, 200 health, -10 cooldown reduction.
