Why, in Riot's words
Last patch’s Sundered Sky nerf was a step in the right direction, but landed a bit under-target given all of the other moving pieces of that patch.

Why, in Riot's words
Sundered Sky, on the other hand, has been the meta dominant AD fighter item for the last year. While we do find it exciting to see when players manage to chain its triggers through a teamfight and barely survive risky engages, we think it's a bit too performant when optimized to the point where it's healing for more than even lifesteal based items.
