i played about 5 games in this season. i’d say the boots are overhyped. i tried super hard to get them every game but the fact that you can only buy them after two legendary items and that their effects arent as great (at least the ones i build), makes them good imo. it adds ton of excitement and fun to the early game, trying to get that first turret for example. it encourages the laners to roam for epic monsters. and the bonus the shoes provides is not really a snowball. they are too weak and too expensive to snowball. i personally rather bought a third item component than shoes when they became aviable. for late late game i hope they will help close games then.
Interesting, thanks for sharing!
Seems to put even more pressure on junglers, and the fact that they can only bee available to one team seems weird
