Now that there's Courage of the Colossus is here, Bond of Stone seems almost useless compared to what CotC can do. It grants you a shield when you "hard CC" someone, which is very easily done by most champions in the game.
Compare THAT to BoS. It blocks very minimal damage to an ally and it's useless when you're alone.
What do you think should be done about Bond of Stone?

Got 
So why not change BoS into another keystone mastery like with Strength of the ages?
Skia Asteri2 votesThe main issue with it is that it would have to be incredibly OP number-wise to really feel like it is being useful.
CerealBoxOfDoom1 votesuseless when you're alone? Doesn't it reduce all incoming damage by 6%?
Doctor Jarvis1 votes4%, but yeah, point stands.
CerealBoxOfDoom1 votescombined with other defenses it can make a significant difference, the same was done with sota
But then theres the added benefit of getting a effect that stacks with this item
Merbstrom1 votesI guess part of the compensation is that the damage reduction with bond of stone is somewhat consistent. One of the reasons I often don't take Colossus on certain champs is that it's counterproductive. You get the shield wit cc, but the shield's duration is wasted partially because of the cc. It's like exhausting someone you just stunned, it's not a proper cc chain. And Bond of stone is a sort of selfless mastery since you're taking damage from your teammates. It's also valid since it's a true reduction, it works well for
and 
amplifying the bastion bond, and surviving better with unbreakable. I guess maybe heal tanks too?
