yea all those platinum players who build this are soooo stupid. All the other magic resistance items are so much more cost efficient and even have amazingly awesome passive abilities like hp regen or a shield which blocks one ability every 45s. And a mr reduction aura is pretty much useless as 90% of the champions in league of legends don't have any magic damage. And nobody builds wit's end these days, so that bit of magic damage won#t profit from the aura at all.

1. that's not what you buy it for. You buy it for survivability, not to kill tanks.

2. Not sure how your ad carry runepage looks like, but mien has mr/lvl. I'll end up at 54 mr at lvl 18, without GA. the 30 magic pen you get with sorcs + mpen reds reduce my mr to 0.

3. The mr reduction compensates that.. And again, you don't really buy this item for damage, but for survivability.

4. No it is not. If you have blue buff the mana regen is unnecessary and cooldown reduction is pretty easy to get. Without the mana and cdr, you get about the same offensive power from abyssal and more mr.
