So if we're gonna make the games faster, shouldn't we make items cheaper?

That way champions that have to get to 3ish items to come into their own don't just become irrelevant. Also champions like Nasus, Gangplank, and Veigar may need a rework or a buff in order to not become irrelevant because they don't have time to farm in this new 20 minute game meta riot is making us play. Gangplank was a pretty popular pick last season, but you hardly ever see him since the new season. Same with Veigar for that matter, he's much less common than he was last season. Champs like Anivia, Ryze, Tristana, and Yi feel pretty irrelevant to me so far.

I don't even like the new pace of the games, and everyone that I've talked to about it doesn't either, but if you're gonna insist on doing it (we all know riot will) at least make it fair to the champions that have to make it to late game.
