There is no measured effect on this page because patch 16.14 did not change Death's Dance. When an item changes we compare games either side of the patch boundary and print what moved, with its range. Until then, the honest answer to "is this item good" is that we have counted who finishes it and when, and nothing more.
There is no win rate anywhere on this page, on purpose. The method note says why.
These numbers come from 108,616 ranked games we recorded on EUW, Korea and NA, found by following Diamond players and the people they play with. That is not every rank and it is not every region. Everything on this page is patch 16.14. Counted up to .

What players finish with Death's Dance
Items that turned up in the same finished build, counted. Riot's data here ships no recipe list, so this is what players bought together, never a build path.

Ravenous Hydra 668 games with both · 7.2% 
Maw of Malmortius 594 games with both · 6.4% 
Voltaic Cyclosword 546 games with both · 5.9% The share is how many of Death's Dance's own 9,258 recorded games also finished that item, so it can never pass 100%. 5 more items appeared beside it in under 30 games each and are left out. Counted, not looked up: it is what players bought together, and it is not a recipe.
When Death's Dance gets bought
Stamped at the moment of the buy, so how the game ended cannot move it.
- all recorded buys
- 25:04
- bought while ahead on gold
- 24:23
- bought while not ahead
- 26:03
1,079 recorded buys: 550 ahead on gold, 529 not ahead. Ahead means a lead of at least 1,000 gold at the buy. Bars run to 40:00 on the game clock; half of all buys fall between 22:14 and 28:24.
These are every recorded buy of Death's Dance, not just the first one in a game, so the middle time sits later than the time you would first build it. The two rows underneath split the same buys by whether the buyer was ahead on gold when they bought.
What patch 16.14 changed
The one measurement here that a win rate cannot fake.
Patch 16.14 did not change Death's Dance
We measure an item when Riot changes it, by comparing games either side of the patch boundary. An item nobody touched has nothing to compare.
See what patch 16.14 did changeHow this page is counted
Short version here. Every number above says which of these it came from.
Games come from finished builds: each recorded player lands in exactly one finished item set, so the buyers chips add up without counting anybody twice. We keep the most common finished builds per champion and role, so the total is a lower bound. How items are counted.
Why there is no win rate on this page
A finished item set is read at the end of the game. A player who bought Death's Dance and lost the game at twenty minutes never finished it, so they are not in these rows. Every player who is in them survived long enough to finish a 3,300 gold item. That makes the win rate of the pool high for reasons that have nothing to do with the item, and worse, we cannot say by how much.
Every other site prints that number anyway. We print the games, the timing at the buy, and the before-and-after comparison when there is one, and we say when we have nothing.
