Bloodthirster
Bloodthirster is meant to be an opt-in defensive option for when you really need the added durability. It's not meant to be rushed so that your ADC can become a tank before everyone else gets their builds online. A flat nerf, especially in the early game, should push Bloodthirster back a slot.
Nashor's Tooth
Continuing on the past few buffs to mage items, Nashor's Tooth is up next. The item previously represented a complete package for Attack Speed Mages, but that was lost when Mythic Items were meant to be the new first item purchases. While the group of champions this applies to is pretty small, we've adjusted our mindset to be more open to first item Legendaries (see Tank items and Blade of the Ruined King), so Nashor's is being adjusted to fit better in that space.
Navori Quickblades
Navori Quickblades is the best-performing ADC capstone by a small amount. The fact that it's out-DPSing Infinity Edge due to resetting auto attack self-buffs makes it hard to pick anything else. So, lowering that reset should make the comparison a bit more fair.
Runes you recently played

Other runes
Legend: Bloodline
Bloodline is the most-picked ADC rune in the Legend slot by far and is contributing to ADCs being generically tanky instead of opting into durability when it's needed. The rune is meant to be a choice, not automatic.
Lethal Tempo
Similar to Bloodline, Lethal Tempo is the most-picked rune for ADCs by a long shot, which makes it a good target for removing power from the role at large. There are some champions where they'll never give up this level of attack speed and that's understandable, but for everyone else, there's more than just one viable keystone out there!
