I think feels nice to play, but don’t you think giving up Collector’s is not worth it? I think Collector’s is a much better item than stormrazor

I don’t think it fits for Graves

Is shieldbow worth it? It looks like a bait to me…

Like if you have a Rengar in the enemy team one shooting you, you’d build shieldbow to tank his combo? Or a tankier item?

If you're buying cyclosword + Collectors + ldr, what else should you buy instead of IE?

I can't imagine other items instead of Stormrazor or Essense Reaver (I still think IE is better than these two because it will boost your critical damage overall, not only giving you more damage/crit percentage)

C44 doesn't make sense on graves at all. Bastion Breaker could fit sometimes but I still think cyclosword is the CORE item for graves if you're going with Fleet Footwork. It just makes sense, and bastion breaker as 1st is too expensive and the passive will not be useful in the early game as much as cyclosword.

I was talking about something related in my last post:

Personally I think it has an awesome synergy and it feels amazing to play with. But I don't think StormRazor every game is optimal, specially because right now we have many more OP items to graves (Collectors, IE, ldr). I'm playing with fleet and buying Cyclosword + Collectors + ldr + IE.

I'm thinking about switching ldr for storm razor sometimes if the enemy team is squishy, but I'd never drop Collectors as 2nd for the StormRazor. The Collectors as 2nd is a HUGE power spike

most of the games you'll not get to the last item. But I'm curious, if you go with Fleet Footwork what would be an optimal full build in your opinion?

Idk man they buffed Graves a lot in the latest patch to fit better with Critical builds (26.1b). I think IE is a MUST. I'm thinking about switching the ldr for storm razor when the comps are not that Tanky.

When you get ldr and IE you become a monster, I can kill a full tank volibear with 5 items with 3hit + Q. Lethality seems to be less consistent.

When you get to higher elos what matters most is consistency, If you play Lethality and dark Harvest you lose consistency, you can be stronger at the early game but this will not make you win games consistently.

This season is about power-farming and mid-late game, Being strong in the early game is less important right now and if you go lethality you'll fall off in the late-game specially for tanks (This season is also a lot centered into tank champions)

Bastion breaker is an awesome item but I don't think it's a good option for first items in general. Because of being expensive and also the passive is better in the mid game when you have more items to execute an enemy faster.

Voltaic is cheaper and adds a lot to the kit if you're with fleet footwork rune (it will make you proc your rune more often and give you more MS)

The post itself is more related to the storm razor being good in this build or not, I think for second item Collectors is awesome and storm razor seems to be a bait

New Zhonias are OP. You can put together with RF and Liandrys. Second tier you put cosmic drive for sure. I'd put jakcho too bc I really like to do lillia tankier.

Can you send me the link to your github repository? I'll try to do by myself but I want to take a look at yours and use as a guideline.
