Weak power early on does not equate to difficult gameplay, nor is it a substitute for it. The average amount of crit people build is also 40% - 55%, depending on whether you pick or  along with, so you're not going to crit on every autoattack, and attack speed acts as a multiplier to crit, just as it multiplies attack damage (that's why most crit items also give attack speed).
