Crit Item Explorations

Hi everyone, I’m here to talk a bit about crit items, bouncing some ideas and getting some discussion going. The exact details are still in flux; don’t want to get caught up on “this number is too big/small” (feedback is still welcome), but am curious to see what you all think and are excited about (either in this post or not) as well as general thoughts. Note: None of these things are guaranteed to ship. Our current goals for this project (which are subject to change): * Crit users have an item path they are excited about. * Crit users have defensive options that aren’t way off curve. * Crit users are more satisfying in solo queue for all levels of play. We're considering some potential directions (see below). Direction 1 is more known, direction 2 is a bit more adventurous and at the end, there are a few ideas that can go in either pitch. Let me know what you think either in thread or on twitter @RiotPhRoXzOn, I'll be around to answer questions and participate in discussion for a bit. ##IE Direction 1 - IE Reversion [IE Reversion] https://i.imgur.com/7Ea7lkjl.png ##IE Direction 2 - 5k Gold IE and Zeal upgrade changes, Energized Changes [5k Gold IE] https://i.imgur.com/uWDJlsWl.png [25% Crit Zeal Items] https://i.imgur.com/JDqgQtbl.png [25% Crit Zeal Items] https://i.imgur.com/Q5gR1OAl.png ##Flexible - (Can go in either pitch) [Hexdrinker] https://i.imgur.com/pyNGcMgl.png [Defensive PD] https://i.imgur.com/8E15VBzl.png [Essence Reaver Broadening] https://i.imgur.com/thvRieDl.png [Energized Stormrazor] https://i.imgur.com/kaEXdrcl.png [Multi proc Stormrazor] https://i.imgur.com/0nb8SwEl.png [Buffed Last Whisper] https://i.imgur.com/2KlxUlAl.png [New Maw] https://i.imgur.com/OlF5FANl.png EDIT: Thanks for all the feedback everyone.

Guidelines

**What's a Dev Corner?** This is a place where League of Legends developers can share thoughts, questions, and retrospectives on all things to do with the game. Please keep discussions focused on the topics at hand - we'll be pretty firm about attempts at hijacking top comments with unrelated content. The plan with the Dev Corner is to pilot various types of communication, ranging from open office hours to 'state of the game' essays. Every month, we'll have 'open forum' style discussions to talk about future ideas. In the future we'll have a calendar up! **Culture & Etiquette** Don't be an asshole. Seriously. Since this is going to be an experimental environment, we ask that everyone do their best to keep the discussions constructive and respectful. Seek to understand rather than demanding to be convinced, and we will do the same. Our long-term goal is to set up a positive environment for developers to engage in quick, constructed conversations. As always, adhere to the Universal Rules.
