Nexus Blitz makes me miss some of the old items

The biggest one is Force of Nature, I really miss having a dedicated MR item that was cheap and accessible. I remember being able to build that sucker as Galio and survive pretty much any AP character all day long.

I also miss DFG (in some ways), because it was an item built for ap assassins (don't get me wrong it is flawed, but I miss having an item that occupied the space of "I want to be able to burst", instead of just having to rush ludens like everyone and their dog).

I miss zephyr for no particular reason, it just makes me nostalgic, remembering those random times when someone would build it and I was like "OH YEAH, that's an item!"

I miss Wriggle's lanturn because it used to be my favorite top-laner item, built-in free ward (was not a thing back then) and great sustain in lane.

I miss SoTD because I used to totally cheese people with that thing on Diana (it used to be a lot different), and because it occupied the unique niche of "ADC wants to burst" (it was unique back then, anyway.)

I actually find myself hoping that some of these will be reborn into SR one day

Deathfire Grasp was too problematic, but the rest were fine in my opinion.

These items created more problems than upsides. They of course were fun to use, but SoTD was definitely a busted snowballing item, and im glad it's gone, even if i enjoyed cheesing people with Rengar with it. Same with DFG and FoN
