Thoughts About the Relic Shield Nerf

item 3302 Relic Shield Line Now notes "50% healing if the owner is ranged."

Thresh is the only ranged tank support. While this nerf is a fix to stop AD Carries from building Relic Shield, it cripples Thresh's usability of Relic Shield. Thresh builds Relic Shield in order to be tankier, and would be forced to build Ancient Coin, which is (in my opinion) an inferior option. Thoughts?

Thresh should get a small hp or hp/5 buff to compensate, but him alone getting hit to fix what's a much broader problem should still go through imo.

Overall I don't agree with the supp item changes, just for the record.

Nevermind Thresh, we don't have to go that far. It's a garbage change because it does not address the root of the problem.

a buff for thresh Hp / Hp regen should fix this but that's said only on him ... his adc will still suffer 50 percent reduced healing ... hence thresh is now just bad at laning phase which is honestly thresh's power spike
