 * "If you think bruiser minded players wouldn't trade Randuin's active for that incredible unique defensive passive you have suggested, then you do not understand how champ roles like to itemize."

The tradeoff is more complicated than that. The idea is to not just remove the active, but also rip 20% of base stats from Omen. 100 less health and 20 less armor is enough to take a second look at it. In melee combat and against mages this is straight out worse defense.


 * "Granting Sunfire regen makes it an even more alluring laning item for bruisers."

Yes, but at the same time the damage scales now with current health, not levels. It makes for a soft taunt - hit the Sunfire wielder and the damage will get lower. It's not meant to be a bad item on bruisers, but tanks are supposed to get extra value from it.


 * "Frozen Mallet is totally nuts"

That's an omission on my part, the price was set for a different concept (200 less health, no passive slow). Should be clarified within the Fighter Project.
