I think armour penetration stacking would be easier to play against if we had better health options. Would Warmog's Armor be too strong on the current Dominion?

I have noticed that while playing talon I don't melt people by faceplanting on my keyboard...but I also don't explode while looking Pantheon...so it balances out.

As far as global cdr....I think certain champs would benefit too much and not affect enough others to warrent it. Ad casters will still rush cleavers.

I don't think the CDR aura is necessary. That's easy to get if players want it. BC and especially BFT could get toned down some more.

Only if the CDR Aura becomes active once you have over 100ap. That way only casters that need the cdr get it.

Yess, try the 10% CDR aura. Just go crazy and try it.

Cleaver, I echo the "put the Warmog back in first" attempt. It's still a bit too much at tank shredding, but I like what it does against bruisers or any people who splash into a single armor item in conjunction with last whisper.

Oh, right, nerf lantern. There is absolutely zero reason for that item to be that cheap. Alternatively, nerf Hextech sweeper in stats/gold cost so you can start the game with 2 unique hueproperties and fantastic stats for cost it as well.

1. BC seems doing whats intended for AD Casters, though its probably still a bit too crazy on certain bruiser champions. Overall though I think its in a fairly good place as long as people don't start stacking them again. And I'm a bit surprised that people aren't, still seems pretty viable to me.

2. BFT is still my biggest worry. It's still must-rush on anyone who wants to do AP damage, both on champs who need it to be viable (Vlad), and champs who are probably a bit too crazy even without it (Kass, Amumu), with an extra bonus of being even more necessary on champs with traps or dots (Teemo, Nid, Malz, Teemo again). Your hinted at cost/build adjustments will likely have an impact, but I think it will do little to change its must-buy status and be ineffective at curbing the more OP champs abusing it, although without testing I cannot confidently say so.

3. Having the AR/MR reduction aura gone is hardly noticeable from a player's perspective due to the proliferation of BC/BFT, but I think its a good change in the shifted landscape of Season 3. Does this mean we can get Warmog's, or some other heavy HP item, back now?

4. As much as I love me some CDR, and damn do I love CDR, I worry that an aura of it might prove a small side-bonus for most champs but a too-massive boon for those who really should have to spend the gold/runes/masteries for it.

5. Only global change I'd personally like to see that I can think of right now is halving the duration of traps on the ground. The map is just too condensed, and paths too limited, for so many traps with no max placements to exist so long.

BC is more or less in line now, although the health and damage on it should also be unique.

CDR aura would be a bad idea, AP's already have it easy as it is as most ap items have stupid amounts of CDR and/or SPen/utility. CDR is currently the only thing keeping them in line. because there is supposed to be a trade off. Either you make your spells hit harder with longer CD or you have spammable spells that don't hit hard but add up over time. If I could forsake a CDR item for more AP Id do even more insane damage, especially considering BFT has CDR on it and it is by far the most efficient item in the game. Plus you would have the same situation as you had with BFT on release. The already powerful champions would become godlike while the lesser powerful champions (the ones you're trying to help) would see a minor increase in power but still pale in comparison to the already strong choices.

Something in my brain is telling me that the CDR aura is a very very bad idea, this seems like it could be solved with better itemization. You could try it, but be ready for the backlash.

Cleaver is still an issue. To me, it competes too much with Last Whipser, and really just seems better overall since it helps everyone. The trade off of selfish vs helping just doesn't seem enough to me. What if it increased your flat pen by a percentage?
