Yeah, I saw it and I definitely think it's amazing. Way better AP stats than the old Zhonya's for less gold? What's not to like?

Looking at this item, however, it looks to me like the active on Zhonya's ring got a definite nerf (50 armor is a joke for 3300 gold). Did riot think it was too powerful to be attached to better stats?

It's too bad too because a "tank caster item" with a good gold-to-stat ratio would have been really nice. As it is, unless you're a character that NEEDS/LOVES Zhonya's active, this item should also offer 50 MR and cost around 500 gold less (or offer health) before I'd say it's even worth considering. 3300 gold takes a long time to save up for. I don't think turning gold and invulnerable/untargetable for 2 seconds makes up for substandard stat boosts.
