"maybe AD Kayle beats AP Kayle in terms of DPS(on a single target maybe), but whether it outdamages is probably a different story. Higher DPS doesnt always equal Kills Faster.  If that was the case, then there would be no need for burtsy mages. " Mostly agree, but here the statement was "full HP with lichbane deals still more damage than full AD with only 1-2 atk speed items". No... let's be right, you can tell me everything about AD Kayle, less burst, less heals and utility with W, less AoE damage with Runaan, but as unique advantage it has higher single target DPS (in the first mins with 450 gold and late game at least I'm quite sure). How to exploit it is up to the player, you say "a champ who should be avoiding being on the front line for teamfghts", yet I exactly build Kayle as DPS (AD or AP) with 0% CDR to maximise her DPS output in 10 secs in front line and counting on ult instead of building def items.

"And, if Im not mistaken, the lifesteal you manage to proc is dependent on the damage you output on the sole target. That means that a numerous other factors come into play. armor, active reductions, active amplifications, etc etc.  While on the other hand, Heal will simply do the same, consistent, dependable amount(except when being affected by grevious wounds, which the same can be said for any type of healing,e.g. lifesteal) + give you a better speed boost if you actually have some invested AP, allowing for better sticking/kiting/positioning." Yes to everything again, but from a duellist point of view (I'm sorry, but I really care about that :D) even with 500 AP, the difference in heals is 225. When you have the gold for 500 AP, how much hp you think you can gain per hit with AD? I always found 0 heals per hit the only one big handicap of DPS attackspeed Kayle.

"That's just a simple example of why pure AP isn't something to sneeze at. Underestimate it, find yourself baited/out of position, and get screwed by it. ez pz" I'm a fan of DPS, so I'm not interested to talk about pure AP, but of course it has its pros too.
