@Riot - Why exactly can't Ohmwrecker buff towers/shield them?

It's pretty much called for in this Ace at 20 min and win meta, whereas if you are a support who has survived a bad team fight, you can't do anything about your impending doom (unless you are Janna)

Why can't Ohm be used defensively and be a way better support and tank item, rather then a pointless ball of wasted gold and a item slot

Give the damn youtuber a chance, if I was him, I would be pissed that my item is a joke

To be honnest with item 3800 been in a poor state right now and turrets been shit like always I actualy think it would be more intressting to change the item 3800 buildpath and let it replace item 3056 compleetly.

I somewhat agree, it's generally down to a item identity crisis where the stats are too useless for the champions intended to buy them

Well before the item 3027 rework. item 3010 was a pretty intressting semi defensive item for AP based champions. The concept of having the option to build it into a scaling item 3027 or and easy item 3800 was just perfect. The best example for this was Maokai that extreemly liked this combination. However this somewhat got lost with the item 3027 rework that compleetly shifted the functionality of it. Than the concept of item 3010 got lost since the gap between the offensive and defensive build option just didn't came suitable anymore for the same champion. For that reason a lot of the build options are in danger right now since they compleetly lost their identity.

I agree that Ohmwrecker should have a passive to up the defense of friendly towers when you are near them. People might actually buy it then.
