Why does kleptomancy get changed to glacial augment on acension
I went to play kleptomancy ez and it switched to glacial augment and i had no idea it would do this and had a nearly useless keystone all game

Probably because it would give you an absurd amount of gold every time you booped an enemy champion.
Not to mention the various consumables would break the game mode.
Riot stated it in the patch notes if you'd actually read them.
Kleptomancy Kleptomancy lets you auto attack champions and get gold and potentially consumables. However, since we balance gold and disable consumables in Ascension, we’ve disabled this rune as well. You'll be getting Glacial Augment, which gives your auto attacks a slow effect on champions. If you slow them with an active item, it’ll freeze the ground around them for five seconds.
The game mode had a set currency gain rate, and no consumables. Kleptomancy thus can't be used, since it breaks the game modes set functions.
