^^^ Not true, mana casters could get an optimal build of Zhonya's plus AA stacks to achieve high AP numbers plus obtain Z's great active. Now, they can't get that high AP number *and* Z's active, they have to choose on or the other.

Non-mana mages never had AA stacking as an option and therefore had a much lower AP potential. Vlad ( as well as Kenny, Akali, and I guess Kat if someone went AP with her) get a much higher AP potential in a build which *includes* Hourglass so they get to keep Z's active.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Vlad and Ken taking the heat for this one soon, prepping Akali for her OP qqing.
