A6I2 bombardment should not die

Akkhan 6 set: While Akarat’s Champion is active, you deal 1500% increased damage and take 75% less damage.
Invoker 2 set:Your Thorns damage now hits all enemies in a 15 yard radius around you. Each time you hit an enemy with Punish, Slash, or block an attack your Thorns is increased by 90% for 2 seconds. This effect stacks up to 10 times and no less than 5 times.
My note:A(kkhan)6 I(nvoker)2 bombardment used to be an S-tier gameplay, but with the nerfing of Norvald and the reworking of Akkhan set, it has become a B-tier. In fact, currently the A6I2 Bombardment Akarat’s Champion choose to Rally Runes, which can still be played by quickly refreshing bombardment, but the disadvantage is that this gameplay is very fragile. in Patch 2.7.4,Akkhan set was reworked,and 2 P set deleted 50% of the Reducing all resource costs, and I think it should be compensated. Therefore, I suggest buff the damage reduce of Akkhan 6 P set by 50% to 75%.

It used to be my favorite build, and it has been the only one I have completed a solo GR150 with the Sader. Now that it is B-tier, I am not playing it anymore, even though I have kept all the stuff. I would love it to be buffed somehow…

The Devs were genius enough to rework the Akkhan set, and it had a new Akkhan Phalanx. However, the previous A6I2 Bombardment should not have died, after all, it is a classic gameplay, and currently, its damage needs +5GR and extra 50% more damage reduction.

OK, so thorns are going to crit again in S30!

Do you think that A6I2 Bombardment while be able to shine again, despite Akkhan rework?

Firstly, soul shards exist in PTR, but I am not sure it will also exist in S30.
Secondly, the presence of Altar greatly enhances A6I2, especially the Empowered(You have 100% increased resource gain, and 50% reduced cooldown time.)
In short,Remnant of Pain +Empowered+A6I2,It’s powerful.
