Riot, you goofed up big time and you know it...

You KNEW old Ardent Censer with healing passive caused tons of issues for the game, yet you decided to not change it for worlds for "integrity reasons" or however you called it.. Now we live in a world, where as a Support main, all I get to see is Janna and Lulu and whatever else can shit out heals and shields to apply Ardent with a 100% uptime. It's just not fun to watch for me, I'm sorry. I'd rather have Mordekaiser bot back than this..

//Edit: oh, would you look at that, some noname posted an issue about a game and gets downvoted for it. 8 hours later, a famous youtuber puts up a video parody bringing up the exact same topic and 99% positive reaction. i wonder how come.. https://youtu.be/PHp95KO8en4

How exactly it affects you? Pros dont want changes for worlds. They want to play on old patch, where they practised a lot

It affects me as a viewer. And pros are exactly that, so don't put them into cotton and let them work for their money. It's not like they lack people in the background doing all the math for them, so if they can't keep up with changes to a single item, they probably shouldn't sit in any of these chairs in first place.

Wait, what? I get math is involved and I doubt anyone is figuring out the split second changes in ap and overall, From my experience, It's because they have played the game, and seen the champs. 1 ap on veigar doesn't do the same boost as say 1 ap on volibear. They have an overall feel for the game and it's components. While I agree a change in the item line up during the final games could be interesting, (I actually like that idea,) It not only hazards their feel of these items, but their effects on the champs, the applications in the game, the utility outside of combat, The pro's of picking the new item over a more trustworthy and effective one.

I'll never pick item 3116, because the stats SUCK, and I don't use any champ who benefits from minimum hp gains in a lethality ruled world, and make the best use of the burn with their kit, I find just getting brand's stun off is just as effective for item 3151 4% hp passive, Instead of item 3116, I think i'll go ahead and build item 3102 for some good cdr and a little more survivability.

Well, Rylai's you use on champs that would benefit from causing the slow, like Aurelion, Eve, etc, to stick on your enemy and kill them. Not for the raw stats.

ya... 20% isn't NOTHING, but it's still enough for someone to escape still rather easy, not to mention, there are now a LOT of champs who are incredibly mobile with dashes and blinks, and slows don't stop dashes. rylaa's won't stop Azir from rushing back to a turret or Katarina from reaching you. Worst of it are champs like Garen who shrug off slows or Sejuani who ignore them until her passive is off. To top it all off item 3009 is amazingly effective against THAT strategy, you lack damage, you lack tankiness, and NO, you don't really lock down an opponent.

Janna, Rakan, Braum, Morgana, Karma, Thresh, Lulu, Alistar, Soraka, Taric, had all been picked for support so far. They may mostly be able to trigger ardent, but that's a fairly wide pool, as opposed to ADC pick/ban of Tristana, Kalista, Xayah, Kog'maw, Varus, Caitlyn, Ashe.
