Ahri Zed Katarina Leblanc top 4 mid picks

Ahri Leblanc run item 3165 as their first item, Katarina has Grevious Wounds on her ult, all run ignite anyway, why not run summoner 3 summoner 21

Vladimir Irelia Hecarim Maokai Nasus Chogath 6 of the 8 popular top laners rely heavily on healing during fights and always run tp for bot lane and dragons, why not run summoner 14

Sejuani Amumu 3rd and 4th most popular junglers, yet never see summoner 1 ?

I think its mostly for early game to heal both ADC and support.

Early trading bot lane grants snowball potential, and the speed boost far out-paces the usefulness of Cleanse.

This. I generally use it for the speed boost just as much as the heal

Heal helps the early game more, and leads in the early game snowball into the late game far better than a late game summoner spell.

If you have two people in your lane you pick heal. Movement speed buffs are always useful.

With so little sustain bot lane these days, you'll lose the 2v2 if you don't match heal.

Yeah, you won't make it out of lane phase if you can't match that heal burst. ignite is something I'd probably never take on adc because range. Exhaust would be really good for assassins that jump you.

But that early game is so essential right now.
