I've been thinking about getting a BotRK instead of a BT and an Executioner's calling as a last item with Tryndamere in order to deal with HP stacking tanks like Dr Mundo or Volibear. I know that Trynd should not face this kind of foes as his primary targets until he gets a full build and becomes able to deal with anything, but I thought that, maybe, this could be a good combination if I desperately have to face HP tanks. To my surprise, even with targets that tend to get around 4800HP, the BotRK finally gives up when they reach half of their health and the BT keeps being better at that rate (At least with Trynd).

To be honest, I know that the effect is far better for AD carries than the good old Madred's, and I must confess that I have not received this item well. But now I have mixed feelings. I feel that a 4% damage based on target's current health is not enough, it should be a 4% of target's maximum health. However, given the fact that tanks have been hit hard by the changes in the defenses reduction/penetration mechanism, changes on TBC, and that both BotRK and Liandry's are far more dangerous than the old Madred's, maybe that would be an overkill for them. In order to improve this item, and make it feel 100% viable as an antitank alternative to the BT, I think that the on-hit damage should be allowed to critically strike, just like the Statikk Shiv effect. At least, I think that it should scale with something if it remans as an item with a damage based on current health.

Thoughts?
