it was only really a problem when jax and akali would stack gunblades in dominion

but they overnerfed gunblade. Instead they should have

- kept the numbers the same but made the passives all unique

- removed it from dominion

- nerfed the lifesteal and spellvamp but kept the AD and AP the same

as it is, this item is utter trash on AD focused hybrids (skarner, kayle, ez, anyone not jax or akali, or maybe poppy) because it doesn't provide enough AD. I can't think of how many times since I played the nerf that I was playing an AD with decent AP ratios and end up picking a wriggles or a BT over gunblade.
