Talk:Iceborn Gauntlet/@comment-4636093-20130221225643

The existence of this item displaced so many builds.

If you want to choose between Iceborn or Trinity Force you have to decide right at the start of the game, because of you go for Trinity then you're probably going to build Phage first because it's the most early game part of TF.

And then there's the Warmogs or Frozen Mallet choice. If you're building Iceborn then you're always going to go for Warmogs because the slow would be redundant.

I feel that Iceborn Gauntlet pidgeonholes so many builds which would have wanted an extra slow from items.

Maybe if it somehow built from Phage its slow would make more sence. Or maybe from Warden's Mail instead of Glacial Shroud.
