Wish List for Next Season
This is a list of things I want for the next season. This won't be exhaustive, just a few things I believe will make the game fun and renewed.
- Removal of "enchanter" items and rebalance shield and heal supports (Main reason why damage seems off the charts because shielding and healing is pretty much nonexistent in this burst heavy meta)
- More magic penetration options for mages.
- More skill expression for Soraka and Janna (Why did Riot change Soraka's Q when it had 150% increased damage in the center? You actually had to aim!)
- Less true damage? (eh, if shields and heals get buffed I guess thats fine)
The only change I am truly passionate about is the removal of "enchanter" items.
This is my philosophy on support:
is very well designed and I believe it has a place in League however, items such as 
break the game and require so many nerfs that they become inordinately useless and hurt the supports that utilize that item due to coordinated nerfs. 
. This breaks and stagnates the role of support. "Enchanter" supports should NOT comprise the majority of support champions. That's just lazy. If I were to call out who is deserving of the title "enchanter support" it would be 
because they provide a unique abilities that are either about manipulating the battle field or manipulating how allies and enemies deal damage. Heal-type supports are like who's primary objective is to keep everyone alive and not to initiate a fight or significantly peel for one. 
are aggressive-style supports who are supposed to thrive in baiting, engaging, and damaging enemy champions. (
is an outlier who excels at multiple support styles due to her hybrid heal/damage kit which is the reason why she's the best performing traditional support atm).
Personally, it pains me to see such unique variation in support styles be artificially turned into the boring conglomeration that is "enchanters" because of ONE item that broke the game for a period of time.
As a final wish/desire that is just a little absurd, can and both be turned into mid-lane mages? gets her 150% Q and gets vector casting for her Q: the placement of which would be around three Teemos away and of course wind up as it does now.
