I was actually watching Rift Rivals today and saw the first game between G2 and TSM and saw how Zven's Kog, even at 4 items (BotRK/Rageblade/Hurricane/Lord Dom) was unable to cut through Bjerg's 4 item tank Galio mid (Stoneplate/A.Helm/Frozen/Randuin) on multiple occasions.

Plus over-all i much more enjoyed his more shred/on-hit style that he had, over this hybrid on-hit/crit style he has going on, which i feel, gimps him a bit.

Overall due to the current tank itemization with several forms of DR and Stoneplate, i feel like a shred on the premier hypercarry and tank buster of the game is more than appropriate.
