Also the move speed on the active is no longer melee restricted and ranged champions get the boost too.

We'll probably see it as a powerful counterpick against chain CC supports like Morgana or Leona in bot lane, even as an early item. Since Doran's Blades give lifesteal and forced Vamp Scepter pickups are trying to be phased out you're not missing out on much damage or sustain if you go for this over IE or BT.
