@Emptylord Indeed it does still build from Kindlegem, but if you compare the two items without their passives they are virtually identical except for the 20% CDR on SV for free. That greatly increases its value over BV.

When you take the passives into account, BV's shield needs to be at least worth the same as 20% CDR and its other passive needs to be worth both of SV's passive.

Basically what I'm saying is that for about the same amount of money, SV has more going for it and BV is indeed getting kinda screwed over, and I blame it on the 20% CDR. It should build from a Ruby Crystal instead and have its cost adjusted accordingly to make BV on par with SV.
