ifnjeff's Notes

In an attempt to create an off-meta league starter, I went straight to the deep end and built around one of the most quickly dismissed gems, Blade Vortex of the Scythe. We take a look at why it seemed so bad, and find a new approach to make it viable in the endgame. It won't break the meta, but the Scythe totems accomplish more than anyone expected.
