    ** IMPORTANT **

    For those of you who don't know, this is datamined information. That means that old code is being read, which includes old items that are disabled but were not erased.

    There is NO return of Heart of Gold, Ionic Spark, Arcane Helix, Leviathan or Soul Shroud. The change to the Ruby Crystal is being dynamically linked to the disabled code, which is why it is being hit by the dataminer.

    They aren't nerfing the Frozen Mallet or Banshees, the cost adjustment comes from Ruby Crystal being 400 gold now, the items themselves are the same price.

    They aren't nerfing them. It's a recipe adjustment because ruby crystal is going down by 75g. The increase is to keep them at the same level. Teemo is also getting a nerf, halving the AP ratio on his ultimate.

    Well, more shrooms but they each deal less damage. Considering that the base damage is quite high and that the Liandry's Torment deal a good amount of damage, it's not that bad I think. This plus with the new vision system, his shrooms are so hard to take out.

    So yeah, It is not a straight nerf to my opinion

    Banshees is the most popular MR item in competitive play right now by a massive amount.
