They are trying to nerf Renekton, Rengar and Shyvana indirectly. They are all cooldown-gated champions, so they're hitting the CDR. (The Sunfire nerf is also targeted at those few). They stated something along the lines of "we want CDR to be primarily a mage/support stat, and fighters should have to commit to an offensive item if they want large amounts of CDR". (Which is fair enough - it's the logic applied to attack speed, lifesteal, crit chance, etc).
