People who buy Lich Bane apply it easier than Luden's. I'm really not certain when people decided that having to autoattack on a mage is "hard" or should be "compensated" - which is actually part of the reason I don't like Runic Echoes. It's worse on Fiddlesticks in all regards except if you refuse to throw at least one autoattack. If the champion you are buying it on cannot apply it easily - you should be buying Luden's Echo, not Lich Bane. I did instead opt to "compensate" them by having it hold twice as much charge - because, quite frankly, autoattack assassins could do with a nerf to their burst and encouraged to use that DPS they've invested in.

The other changes I made to Lich Bane were to resurrect the original Runeglaive - which was only nerfed because of Ezreal. However, due to the new charge system, Ezreal does not get to trigger it every time - so maybe it'll work this time? Probably not, but ah well. Ezreal is why we can't have nice things. :(
