League of Legends (PC)
Mercurial Scimitar has been changed in 14 League of Legends patches. 2 buffs, 1 nerf, 10 adjustments. Most recently adjusted in Patch 25.18.
Quicksilver Sash
Pickaxe
Vampiric ScepterWhen you find yourself forced to rush a QSS to survive an enemy Malzahar, Warwick, or just a team with heavy CC, it's still usually in your best interest to complete this item last. Even then, you still may feel like you're giving up more power than you can afford due to the meager stats that the item gives on completion. We're looking to make sure the item still feels appropriately tuned while keeping a focus on the active as its main strength.

Scimitar is leaving the crit system to instead become a more accessible lifesteal item. This should still be a somewhat narrow purchase that feels okay to add to a build without ever having to worry about going over the crit chance cap.
General
- New Recipe: Quicksilver Sash + Pickaxe + Vampiric Scepter + 225 gold = 3300 gold.
- Old Recipe: Quicksilver Sash + Cloak of Agility + Pickaxe + 225 gold = 3000 gold.
- Critical strike chance reduced to 0% from 20%.
- Life steal increased to 10% from 0%.
Mercurial Scimitar is nearly never purchased and could stand to receive a small buff. There’s still a massive damage loss compared to an offensive-oriented item but now it gives enough MR to be worth considering in a few more situations.
General
- Magic resistance increased to 50 from 40.
Mercurial Scimitar hasn’t been as appealing recently given its role as an important itemization option that provides magic resist, critical strike chance, and a built-in cc removal effect. We’re increasing the benefits that come with this item to make it a little more tempting of an option compared to the other sword items carries can opt for.
