Talk:The Brutalizer/@comment-38.121.94.64-20100827061015

I find this item is fantastic lategame. I usually get a brutalizer + a youmuus ghostblade. And stack up that arpen. Each Arpen can give up to 1% extra damage. In a best case scenario the breakeven point for arpen is 100 damage and they have the exact same armor as you have arpen. Imo a brutalizer is a decent increase in damage and against most targets one Arpen will contribute more than one attack damage. In games where you rack up 250+damage you'll realize how incredibly cost efficient the brutalizer is. It cost 72% of a BFsword but in lieue of 25 AD you get 10% cdr and 15arpen. For 513 gold less you get +15arpen 10% cdr and 25less attack. Imo a fair deal and more cost efficient than a bf sword against squishier targets.

Brutalizer is a fantastic item. It builds into a youmuus which is a mini-ghost, has a great active, even more armor pen and cdr.

Brutalizer is a great item to keep in your inventory. On the offchance that I do finish my other 5 items that I have, and I have a youmuus, there could be a better choice than brutalizer, but since it's so damn cost efficient and can be built from cheap long swords I just don't see a reason not to get it.
