Well, the main reason I want it to be his passive that's buffed is that it is temporary. As in, it lasts only 2 seconds. I mean, you can do a lot in 2 seconds, but only if your an assassin. The main purpose being winning trades, and }, I imagine, doesn't require that since he maintains the fight rather than attacks in small skirmishes. It doesn't have to be base damage btw, if that's what you're thinking.

Though I don't entirely know the precise difference between and. I believe that relies on having a well rounded amount of health to pounce on the squishier enemies while being strong enough to keep fighting in that scenario. Then there is which is just pouncing into battle and bursting someone then jumping out and doing it again. My view on it is that since is jumping out, he has more chances to proc  than.

Though I can see why armor shred on a no cost ability would be powerful for since  is pretty much essential going bruiser because the armor reduction on  is best used in a longer fight which  can handle. Though, for point blank bursting purposes, I think it is still much more an assassin trait than a bruiser trait. It does help but that's because the initial burst is stronger. Thing is, is all about that initial burst.

In regards to buffing itself, I feel like that would make  a must have on. There would literally be no reason not to get it. The only way it would be ineffective is if nobody build armor because then it would be excessive, but armor always scales in the end meaning that later in the game the armor shred may still be better than the other traits; especially for replacing that with a more heavy damage item. I'm not against the armor shred being on which is a given since it applies his  but limiting it to just his ult seems a bit off for me.
