@Xypherous about Forbidden Idol Changes

Why will these changes exist if your team is reducing heal power of supports in order to compensate for the heal amp? It's a bit of a backwards nerf to healing supports when after these items drop that they'll have to build an item to have as much heal potency as they currently do. Sona has already had her healing power dropped, and you've mentioned that Soraka will have to be tuned as well. For me, it's just bad design to create a supposedly beneficial item for supports that ends up being a required gold investment because of the nerf to heals, thus feeding into the gold starvation issues that supports already face. Creating items that give bonuses and then removing power on the champs using the item only zeros out the bonus, meaning nothing really changes at all, to the detriment of healers. I don't want these item changes to go through if they're just going to create necessities for supports who already have problems affording things.
